Summary
“'We’ll be okay.'
The words echo through her mind, taunting her, sending more tears down her face, a litany of a plea that she wishes were true. She’d said it, she’d put it out into the universe, actually believing that the content feeling she felt wrapped up in his arms every night would somehow sustain itself without him there.
And now, all she was left with was the aftermath."
Takes place after 1x12.

Summary
A slight detour from the end of the book. A what could have been, if you will. Story begins at the end of page 395 and deviates slightly from there.

Summary
Shower time is Maeve’s favourite. Tears get lost amongst all the water, and faking a skin care routine meant Otis would hop in bed, breathe far too fast to actually be asleep and she’d do the same. Neither really wanting to have to be all alone together.
Otis’s feet hang off the end of the bed, she still smiles at his mismatched socks he wears to bed, even when his back is turned. It’s probably just as well, she hates the way he seems to be able to tell she’s been crying.
She slips into the sheets next to him, back to back. Unsteady breaths escaping both of them. She squeezes her eyes shut, wishes away the tears and focuses on their daughter in the next room, sleeping peacefully in the house with both her parents. Everything Maeve never had. Everything she ever wished for.
In the house with big windows.

Maeve and Otis find each other again.

It doesn’t happen the way that Marianne assumes it would. There is no dramatic gasp of realisation, no panicked dash to the pharmacy, no tear-filled declarations.
Trashy films and television lied to her.

Summary
It’s been two years and three months and the sight of Marianne across a crowded room is still enough to stop him in his tracks.
As an act of lockdown self-care I wrote a hopeful coda to Normal People. It is set two years after Connell leaves for New York.

Summary
Premise (post season 3): When Maeve’s flight back from America is delayed, Otis is left waiting for her at Anna’s house late into the night. Otis and Maeve’s reunion goes a bit differently than either of them imagined.
Story skips any separation between Otis & Maeve but assumes they kept in contact regularly and picked up about where they left off, but just really not digging physical distance. Goes on to hit several major milestones in their early relationship.

Summary
It hits her immediately. Those pale blue eyes. That along with the distinct voice in the background,
“Ladies & Gentlemen, one last applause for our Ted Talk speaker today, Otis Milburn.”
He walks backstage, where she has been patiently waiting for her talk which was next, his words from 6 years ago that she still lives by today. On-time is late. Those words were still ingrained in her head from the time they had dated, and ever since then, she had shown up to every appointment, every date, and every event early.
She refocuses and gazes over at him, and his eyes waver over to her. A flash of recognition passes by them, but he staggers for a second. He opens his mouth but shuts it again, gulping like a goldfish. She smirks, reminded of the times he had nervously done the same gesture when they were in secondary school.
Out of nowhere, she speaks. “Otis Milburn?”
OR: Maeve and Otis accidentally stumble across each other 6 years after graduating from Moordale. Will they be able to build a relationship again?

Summary
What if Zhan Tiri never stole the acidic potion from Demanitus's chamber, so she was still trapped in the black rock cage and couldn't interrupt when Cassandra took the Sundrop from Rapunzel?
Well, with no use for it and confronted with the reality that she doesn't have a destiny, Cassandra returns the Sundrop to a barely-conscious Rapunzel and flees with the Moonstone as the eclipse fades. While Rapunzel and her friends seal Zhan Tiri away with Demanitus's portal and begin to rebuild the city, Cassandra thinks about what to do with her life. She realizes that if she has no greater purpose, she should pursue happiness by doing what she enjoys -
And two of her favorite things are fighting, and Rapunzel's attention.
(Enemies to lovers fic with Cassandra as a harmless villain whose main feature is showing up in Corona at increasingly inconvenient times to challenge Rapunzel to fight her, while Rapunzel desperately tries to run her kingdom and figure out how to reconnect with Cassandra in a way that doesn't involve them engaging in supernatural battle.)
