Summary
Xavier calls her babe. Her parents call it young love. Wednesday calls it a hostage situation.
She’s been locked into a long-distance non-romance with Xavier Thorpe since childhood—thanks to one emotionally traumatic wake, two overbearing families, and zero escape plans.
But then she meets Tyler Galpin: barista, bastard, and low-key outcast with a busted espresso machine and no interest in pretending she's someone softer.
In this AU, the sheriff’s not an outcast-hating zealot, Thornhill never groomed Tyler, and Wednesday isn’t at war with her mother—just the universe.
When a broken espresso machine, a carnival brawl, and an accidental emotional connection collide, Wednesday finds herself in dangerous territory:
Someone sees her.
Worse—he might understand her.“Tell me—do you even flinch when he touches you, or are you that good at pretending now?”
“You’re confusing repression with performance.”
“No, I’m confusing you with someone who gives a damn. And maybe I shouldn’t.”
“Then don’t.”
“Fine. I won’t. But answer me this: when it’s him you’re with, why do your eyes always find me?”Series

Overwhelmed with her responsibilities, guilt, and drama, Marinette has an emotional breakdown in front of everyone, and even hands over her earrings in a moment of weakness. Only for a few seconds, but the damage was done. Adrien’s pretty quick on the uptake like that.Series

Summary
Written for Spyfest 2019 Fic Exchange.
Prompt: A reappearing theme/scene is generally two opposing characters tied together/both hostage, bonding and humor while their captors are grossly under-prepared for dealing with both of them at once, but competent enough that the two hostages can't escape
Basically, I want Alex and someone (Yassen, Clone, whoever) tied back to back, chair to chair, or both sharing a support beam in Emperors New Groove style, casually bonding over being captured.
example
- playing I-Spy badly
- Bonding over horrible missions
- insulting their capturer in increasingly creative ways
- being unfazed by the situation
Series
- Part 7 of The Boarding School Series
