why does it feel like a vow by eddis

Summary
Pyrrha looked at Camilla with a question in her eyes, got some unspoken response, and added: “Also, I resent the implication that we're not already a real family. We have an absent father, somewhere between one to three kids, and are all fucked up to hell. What else do you need, the picket fence?”
“Well,” Nona said, looking mournfully at the sniper blinds, “it would be nice.”
On New Rho, public perception forces Nona's household to make their ambiguous bonds a little less ambiguous. Or: Pyrrha and Camilla get fake married.

Summary
Veronica's soulmate is in love with someone else.
The chances of her finding her soulmate in a diner in backwater Washington is laughable. That was her mistake, she thinks later. Murphey’s Law fucking her up once again. She’s the universe’s favourite punching bag.

Summary
They were without a doubt the nerdiest band of weirdos ever to be condemned to Saturday detention.
Gideon was used to slumming it every weekend with the roughest of the rough; today she found herself packed in tight with a gaggle of overly inquisitive science geeks with no self control, and the exasperated ride-or-die jock friends who had reluctantly aided them in their weird-ass academic hyperfixations, most of which inevitably involved dead things, or things that could be set on fire.
OR:
A ten-year high school reunion brings the old Canaan High cohort back together to relive the events surrounding a fateful weekend detention, unearthing old skeletons in the closet and feelings that should have been buried six feet under.

Summary
This was, Aiglamene felt, an uncomfortable reversal; Gideon Nav upright, uncreased and unbothered, while Harrowhark Nonagesimus lay crumpled and defeated? It felt impossible. And Harrowhark seemed uncomprehending, too, that was the worst of it; she looked about with precisely no familiarity, or recognition of what or who she was seeing. Hell, no wonder Crux had been steaming. It would have boiled his piss to see his beloved Lady brought back in such a state…

The World Is Crumbling, But Tonight I Will Make Dinner by Robbies_Restroom

Summary
But Gideon can’t fix her. Can’t bring her mother back. Can’t make her father come home. Can’t make her worthy enough to even ask for it. She can’t make the Lord forgive her.
Except she doesn’t say any of that. It’s too hopeless. Too pathetic.
Instead, it’s a weak plea that does escape her. But how could she ever understand? What is God to an atheist? What connection do the two of them have when it’s her whole world?
“Has anybody ever died for you?” Harrow whispers, “Would anyone ever? People are selfish. They’re cruel. We hurt eachother, we take from eachother—and that’s why. That’s why I believe. Even if it makes me a fool in your eyes, I have to.”
-
In a rural, hyper-religious country town in central Australia, Harrow and Gideon grow up sharing a wall. Deeply, reverently, irrevocably in love, but violently steeped in enough religious shame to hide it, they fail to learn the difference between love and worship, want, and lust.

Summary
Harrowhark Nonagesimus is this close to graduating from high school early and escaping all of her dreadful, hormonal peers. Unfortunately, a rogue physical education requirement - and her own hatred for shorts - forces her to join the school's fencing team.
Friends are a waste of time, in Harrowhark's opinion. The loud, muscular, extremely attractive saber fighter is determined to kill that opinion super dead.
“The question, my lugubrious lady, remains: what in the crypt-keeping fuck is your deal?”

Summary
"A gigantic snout loomed over Gideon. There was a rancid exhalation of air, and a purple tongue licked her slimily from chin to eyebrows.
'Harrow!' Gideon yelped. 'What the fuck?!'
'God is dead,' Harrowhark intoned, 'And the lady of the tomb has blessed us.'"Or, Gideon and Harrow figure out how to take care of eighty-two cows, and themselves, in that order.

Summary
“Not to sound ungrateful, but being here makes me wish that you had left me for dead,” said Harrow.
Gideon had been staring hard at the face of the fountain’s statue. She was pretty sure that it was carved in the likeness of Naberius himself, but she didn’t want to say it out loud and make it true. She shook her head and turned to Harrow. “Leaving me to live out eternity in your bony sock puppet of a body? Hard pass.”
Palamedes and Camilla shared a look. It was the mutual understanding of two people who had been trapped in close quarters with the bickering of Gideon Nav and Harrowhark Nonagesimus for far too long.

Summary
Harrowhark Nonagesimus and Gideon Nav have always been at each other’s throats, and the animosity has only intensified since the death of Harrow’s parents. But when a car accident leaves Gideon without any memories of her past, Harrow sees a chance at the clean slate she’s wanted for years. Becoming involved in Gideon’s recovery assuages some of the guilt, but as she and Gideon become closer and increasingly involved in each other's lives, Harrow worries that some of her secrets may be more than she can atone for.

Summary
Harrow was dreaming in the way she always dreamed—with that old and unnamed horror trailing at her heels, accompanied by the sharp smell of loss...
When the Body requests that Harrowhark Nonagesimus go to Canaan, she is in no position to refuse, even if it means tagging along with her persistently affectionate colleagues, Camilla Hect and Palamedes Sextus. Yet as she negotiates her way through the intricacies of Canaan's underground necromancy circles, Harrow is finding it difficult to maintain her image and keep Camilla and Palamedes from discovering the truth about her past - which is made no easier by her newfound connection with local coffee shop barista Gideon Nav.
Though she is doing her best to keep the peace, she will soon be forced to admit that this gathering in Canaan is no coincidence - beneath the surface, old powers are waking. And like Harrow herself, no one is quite who they say they are.

Summary
A letter from Nona to Harrow, sharing some important questions and information that she'll need before she returns to her body.
The first thing you should know is that I’m not writing this letter myself. I’m telling it to Palamedes and he’s writing it down. He says that’s called dictating. The first time he said that word, Pyrrha overheard and said, ‘Dick Tate? I hardly know him!’ and then Palamedes said ‘stop interrupting, and we don’t know anyone named Tate.’ Palamedes says I’m getting off topic again. Anyway, Palamedes is writing for me because I can’t. I don’t understand why that’s so important, but Palamedes says not disclosing that information is a serious breach of academic integrity. I don’t know what that means, but apparently you will, and you’ll think it’s important.

Dreaming Dead, Waking World by enigmaticEditor

Summary
On the one hand, death and destruction and the horrific awkwardness of being in constant proximity to your estranged ex-something. On the other, life and construction and the mortifying ordeal of being known, and loved, and having to figure out how to exist in a world that was never your own.
Through it all, Gideon and Harrow have each other, willingly or not.
Or, nine mostly-critical scenes from the version of Alecto the Ninth I have envisioned, and nine scenes of wildly varying importance from the “post-canon” of the same.

Two idiots and one mildly criminal New Year’s Eve operation.
(In which Harrow Nonagesimus has a score to settle, and Gideon comes along to make sure she doesn’t get her tiny ass stuck in an even tinier window. It’s definitely not because she likes her.)
(OR: the “who ya gonna call?” art school prequel, but just the part where they put a tilapia in John’s office.)
