Summary
She’d catch my wrist and not let it go, Lupe thinks, watching Jess methodically strip the label from her beer. Those square hands of hers; callused and rough and red-knuckled. She’d squeeze her hand around it ’til it hurts. Jess’ eyes flick up, catching Lupe staring. And I’d let her.

Summary
She and Jess are friends. No matter what. Even when the evidence seems pretty damn compelling, it doesn’t mean anything. They’re friends.
But she’s never had a friend like Jess.Five times Lupe tries to convince herself they're still just friends, and one time they definitely cross the line. And then a 100k epilogue.
(Jess and Lupe inventing friends with benefits? It's likely.)

Summary
Eight years later.
"To bid goodbye, is to say, ‘I must put you into God’s hands, since I can no longer hold you in mine.’ A goodbye is a capitulation to forces bigger, stronger than ourselves, than our wills, our desires. It is a surrender, of someone dear, to the questionable mercies of the world. One quite literally gives them up.” She sipped at her wine. “Goodbyes are shattering, and devastating, and holy. And life is full of them. Do not try to make them easy. Far better to make them worthwhile."

Summary
“I met your catcher,” Max says conversationally, a couple minutes later. She has a slow, lilting measure to her speech that makes the words in Lupe’s mouth feel harsher and grittier by comparison. “White girl who looks like she saw a bus for the first time yesterday?”
Lupe rolls her eyes. “That’s her.”
“So she’s what’s got up your ass?”
“Stuck her hand way up there,” Lupe confirms. “And she’s still doing signals.”
Or: Max befriends Lupe instead of Carson.

Summary
"Perhaps most tragic of all is the absence of Andy Burgess outside of Scranton history. We know that she was brave and determined based on her actions during the Scranton Flood. We know that she loved and was loved in return, that her final thoughts on the day of her death were about Nile. But who she was outside of that has been lost to the pages of history. Though many people have shown up over the years claiming to be her family, there has been no actual proven familial link to this day. In many ways, Andy Burgess exists because of Nile's letters, her words doing more to immortalize the Hero of Scranton's human existence than any biographical text to date...And perhaps, at the end of the day, this was the greatest demonstration of Nile's love for Andy Burgess: to keep her alive long after she was gone."

At this point I've read this story more than I've watched the actual show, so in my brain, this is basically... canon?

She'd never expected to find herself a government employee. But these days Kelly had a boss who'd never once tried to hit on her, an expense account of apparently exospheric height, and a job that was almost as fun as outright crime.

Summary
Wil noh Daiomoru of Queenscove was nine when he realized that no one knew who he was.
(“Wil doesn’t know who she is.” Da’s voice was rising in pitch. “She’s nine."
“Wil is a very mature and self-aware nine-year-old,” said Aunt Kel. There was a hard edge to her voice that Wil didn’t hear very often. “And if you’re going to be hysterical about this, we’ll talk about it in the morning.”
“I think,” said Mama, “that we thought we had two daughters, but we actually have a daughter and a son.”)
________Set ten years after Lady Knight.
