Summary
Jade has gone along with a fair few of Kit's really really bad ideas, like the time they let the class bearded dragon out of its cage in third grade or the time they tried to ambush Airk and ended up locking themselves in the back seat of his truck, but this might be the worst idea Kit has had yet. But Jade has never been able to say no to her best friend. So, when they both decide to move to New York City after spending four years apart at separate colleges and Kit decides they should be roommates, Jade agrees.
And it's really a bad idea.
or
Jade and Kit move to NYC together as roommates, you know...like friends do...

Summary
The freedom of college life has been perfect for Adora. But when she’s forced to visit home for the holidays, she’s confronted with her best friend who she hasn’t spoken to for an entire year. One that she kissed the day she left.
Imagine a suburban neighbourhood, bike rides on wide roads, tree houses, reminiscing about high school parties and a 50s diner - all set in a nostalgic shade of sepia.
~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.
TLDR: Holiday AU meets College AU. Adora's left for college. Catra stayed. They're gay.

Summary
Adora is sick of Glimmer insisting that she has romantic feelings for Catra. Glimmer clearly just thinks that because she's in love with her best friend and refuses to tell him. So, Adora comes up with the perfect plan to solve both problems: they make a deal that Glimmer will confess how she feels to Bow if Adora asks Catra out. Sure, it will be a little embarrassing when Catra rejects her, but one day they'll all look back at this and laugh.
What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
If you asked Catra what she intended to do during her third year of university, the answer would not have been "faking a long-term relationship with the hottest person she knows to win a stupid but beautiful car."
But here she is.

Summary
Vi doesn’t see her again until they’re on stage, her bus having pulled into the venue before hers. They walk through excited hands and screams, posters with their names reaching for the sky. Vi smiles at the sight. At her and her sister’s dream come to life. Only her dream bleeds with someone else. Someone she can’t have even if she were brave enough to take it.
_____
She won’t put a name to the feeling that’s rioting behind her ribs. It’s so obvious. Caitlyn knows she sees. Feels it. Put words and harmonies to it. But if Vi can hide and run, then why can’t she?

Summary
Gideon raised one eyebrow comically high. She smiled easily, erasing any hint of the anxiety that Harrow might have sensed. "What's with all the questions today?"
Harrow huffed indignantly and fidgeted with the blanket draped across her lap, worrying the frayed hem with her fingers. "I thought your ego would appreciate the interest."
"Yeah, but it's weird coming from you. I'm used to you monologuing, not playing twenty questions."
"Perhaps it's a Christmas miracle," suggested Harrow, with an expression so absolutely devoid of joy that Gideon couldn't help but laugh.

Summary
Harrowhark, a student at The Sacred Divine Order of Perpetual Felicity Catholic Women’s College, signs up to tutor Gideon Nav, a three time community college dropout who runs away from all her problems, preferably on her shitty barely functional motorcycle. They instantly hate each other upon first meeting. However, something about Harrow surprisingly keeps Gideon coming back to tutoring sessions. And, something about Gideon makes Harrow need feel like she needs to go to confession after those tutoring sessions.
A story about faith, challenging your beliefs, and falling in love. Also homework. It's also about homework.

Never one to back off from a challenge, Harrow agrees, and takes to the ice for real again for the first time in quite a few years. But why does Gideon even care so much?

Summary
The sun was beginning to set, casting the small cafe in a warm yellow light. When Harrow looked at the barista, she immediately believed the sunlight was flowing in for her; she stood behind the counter like an ancient figure carved from marble, all sharp jawlines and well-defined muscles. The golden hour light made her positively radiant. She belonged in a museum, not behind a cash register. Harrow none-so-gently shoved down the instinctual desire to photograph her.
“What can I getcha?”
Harrow cleared her throat awkwardly.
