    Summary

    “Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…

    “Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”

    Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”

    There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.

    “Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”

    OR

    Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.

    Summary

    Vi’s eyes dart along the name, the bright screen causing her to squint as she continues reading and re-reading until the letters start to jumble up.

    5 letters. Just 5 letters.

    All it takes is 5 letters to turn Vi’s world upside down.

    “Leona? Who’s Leona?” she mumbles, daring to glance up at Caitlyn, the latter in the process of trying to fish her phone back from where Vi’s holding it at a full arm’s length away. Vi doesn’t budge, bracketing her into the corner of her kitchen counter with a shoulder.

    “C’mon Vi, does it matter?” she replies, finally getting her words together, her eyes going round in an attempt to look more vulnerable when she realises Vi isn’t letting her go anywhere. It doesn’t work.

    “I had a nice time last night, let’s do it again sometime… I think we woke my neighbours up?” Vi reads, ignoring the way her voice goes shrill at the end, her heart pounding as she swallows back a lump in her throat.

    “God, this is so embarrassing, give me my phone back-”

    “You’re into girls?”
    _____

    College!AU where everyone’s alive, Vi thinks Caitlyn’s straight (lmao), everyone’s oblivious to any form of flirting, and many shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    Vi ignored him as movement outside the window caught her eye and she leaned over to see what it was. Her neighbor looked up, their eyes meeting for a brief second. A scowl appeared on the young woman’s face and Vi quickly moved away from the window and took her seat again at the drumset.
    “Fuck me,” she mumbled.
    Ever since her neighbor had moved in a couple of months ago, it had been nothing but complaint, complaint, complaint. She hated Vi’s music, she hated her friends. She hated the way Vi’s cooking smelled (when she had the misfortune of burning it once or twice). She had threatened to call the landlord when Vi flipped her off after a petty argument about whose responsibility it was to bring the trash cans to the curb. Vi couldn’t stand her.

    Summary

    A different motive for Cassandra's turn.

    Instead of Cassandra finding the Saporian memory wand and accidentally erasing Rapunzel's memories, Rapunzel finds it and doesn't mention it to Cassandra. Frustrated by how Cassandra refuses to talk to her that night, Rapunzel uses the wand to alter Cassandra's memories while she's asleep of what happened in the Great Tree. Delighted by Cassandra's change in demeanor not being angry with her anymore, Rapunzel holds onto the wand to "fix" other problems between them.

    Summary

    “O, swear not by the moon, th' inconstant moon,
    That monthly changes in her circle orb,
    Lest that thy love prove likewise variable.”

    AU where the Sundrop and Moonstone don't exist, Cassandra is the prince of the Dark Kingdom, and the plot is driven by political motives and romance.
