    Summary

    Vi looks at the big clock on the far wall. 7:46AM. She’s one minute late today. Every morning for the past six months - well, every morning Vi’s been on shift, so she’s just assuming about the other days - she’s passed by at exactly 7:45AM, always at a brisk walk, always in a perfectly-tailored suit, not a single long, silky-looking hair out of place.

    7:47AM. The crisp clack of heeled boots on concrete pulls Vi out of her musings. There must have been some sort of emergency, because the subject of Vi’s (minor) obsession walks past the fire station at a faster clip than normal. Which is sort of saying something, because Mystery Woman’s got legs for days, long and slender, visibly toned with long, lean muscle through her suit pants. At the faster clip, Vi has less time to admire her ass and tiny, tiny waist as she walks by, but that’s fine, because the view as she leaves is fantastic.

    OR

    Caitlyn's route to work as a detective at the 51st Precinct takes her right by Fire Station #516, and Vi's been pining after the gorgeous Mystery Woman for six months...what will happen when she finds out that Caitlyn's a cop (AKA: The Enemy)?

    Summary

    “You’re drunk? Shit, you’re hammered and you’re pointing a fucking shotgun at me,” the intruder says. Her steely eyes gleam like the necklace tucked away in her jeans, and Caitlyn knows there are a dozen stories behind them. “Look. I’m not gonna hurt you, okay? There’s a reason I chose tonight to come topside. Everyone’s supposed to be at that Council party, and I figured this place would be an easy mark. You need better security, Cupcake. Took me three minutes to get over the gate, up the wall, and through your bedroom window.”

    Caitlyn's long-since settled into a socially advantageous marriage and is excellent at appearing satisfied with her lot in life. Her first act of rebellion in years - skipping the grandest gala of the season - puts her in the path of Vi, a Zaunite with debts to pay and scores to settle.

    Summary

    “About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”

    “Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”

    “Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”

    “Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”

    Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

    Summary

    She couldn’t even say it had been impossible, she knew she could’ve done it — she could’ve saved them all. But she picked Chloe. And as horrible, as tragic, as devastating as the choice had been, Max knew it was the only option she would ever choose. Even if she woke up tomorrow and found the date on the calendar was October 7th, she would make the same choice. A thousand times. An infinite amount of times.

     

    To her, to Max, it would always be Chloe. Nothing in the fucking world would ever change that.

    Max made it out alive with Chloe at her side, swearing to never use her powers again. But leaving the past behind isn’t as easy as she thought it’d be, especially with the weight of grief and guilt hanging over her shoulders. Luckily, they’re in it together — and nothing will ever tear them apart...Right?

    Or, the ups and downs of what happened between 2013 - 2024 as told from Max's perspective.

    Summary

    Enemy, apprentice, friend. Associate is too clinical, lover sounds too personal, partner too enduring. Confidante? Comrade? Companion?

    There is no word for what Levi is, to him. What do you call an equal other than an equal?

    A counterpart, Erwin thinks.
