Summary
With the whispering woods destroyed, it was easy to slip into Bright Moon. It was easy to stick to the shadows, to move quietly through the border of the trees. It was easy to scale the side of the castle with her claws, to hoist herself onto the edge of the balcony and out of sight.
What wasn’t easy was staying still while Adora, just a few feet from where Catra perched, started to undress.

Summary
"Are you with your soulmate? Or are you waiting around for them like 'half the world'?" Adora uses air quotes to emphasize Catra's words. Adora can feel her palms sweat, thinking of how she'll feel if Catra says she has found her other half.
Catra shrugs, a picture of carelessness. "Nah. I haven't thought about my soul mark since it disappeared off me." The blasé way she says it makes Adora feel like that wasn't the whole truth.
Adora doesn't press. "It aches sometimes. Feels empty, without the soul mark." Adora admits in a quiet whisper staring down at the bar top. Catra absentmindedly rubs her left shoulder.
Adora looks up at Catra. Both of Catra's hands press down on the bar top. Adora takes a chance and slowly slides her hand next to Catra's, only their pinkies touching. The small touch feels like it vibrates through Adora's body.
"But I don't ache when I'm here with you." Adora shrugs apologetically like she knows she shouldn't say something so forward to a woman who is just trying to do her job.

Adora doesn't find her soulmate by 30 and her soul mark disappears. The next week, she meets a bartender that turns her world on its head. Soul Mark AU.

Summary
Adora had never in her life been jealous of her twin. They were two halves of the same powerful person. They lifted each other up and carried the burdens of the other whenever they were too weak to stand alone. They had always done everything together, they had their own strengths and weaknesses, both on and off the field. They were a strong team, and they would always be.
Adora had never been jealous of Adam Grayskull until he started dating Catra. Adora, Adam and Catra had been friends since primary school, and he had every right to like her. She was smart, funny, and absolutely beautiful. Now, Adora could never tell Catra the truth about her feelings. She would never do that to Adam. But she would give anything for this not to be real.- Language:

Summary
No matter what anyone says, Adora doesn't have a crush on Catra.
So what if Catra's laugh made Adora's stomach feel funny? So what if sometimes Adora looked over and thought Catra was so beautiful she could cry? It wasn't a big deal that Adora fell asleep each night thinking about what it would be like to kiss Catra and hold her close.
These were all very normal friendship things.
She didn't have a crush on her or anything...

Summary
Adora doesn’t know she and Catra ever broke up. Catra doesn’t believe Adora is ever coming back.
When Adora left Catra in their tiny town of Thaymor to play volleyball at the University of Bright Moon she made a promise. When Catra watched her drive away with nothing but false hope to keep her warm, she let Adora go. Now it’s 8 years later. Adora’s an Olympic gold medalist, ready to keep her promise, and Catra’s a high school music teacher, desperate for a peaceful winter break. But some promises are harder to keep than others, and peace on earth does not mean peace for you.

Summary
Catra was not so basic as to be one of those lesbians who pines for their best friend. Except fast forward a year and it turns out, she was. She was hopelessly in love with Adora and Adora was going on a date.

Summary
Catra suddenly laughs, because what is she doing? She’s a closeted lesbian who hasn’t spoken to her family in years because of it, she’s struggling financially through grad school, she lives in a shitty apartment, and she’s just, essentially, offered to help a ghost figure out how to be a ghost.
But the hopeful look in Adora’s eyes is still there, and she’s wearing the first genuine smile Catra’s ever seen on her, and she’s almost blindsided by how beautiful Adora is.
So Catra nods and says, “yeah. I’ll help you figure it out,” because really, how hard can it be?
(Really, she has no idea what she’s getting herself into.)

Summary
“Well… I died. There’s nothing I can do about that, right? It took me long years to make peace with that. I’m not about to deny it. Speaking about how, though, it is traumatic for some ghosts...” Her face pulled into a concentrated one and Adora frowned.
“I’m sorry.” Catra simply shrugged and kept looking around the room. “Are you here to haunt me?” Adora scratched her arm at the sudden fear she felt at the possible answer.
“Not unless you want me to.” Catra grinned at her.When Adora wrote her thesis centered on Oral History titled "Beyond the Eyes of the Living, How the Dead Speak" she didn't mean it literally. Hell, she didn't even think she would be offering to solve this Magicat's murder.

Summary
The classroom is bright and colorful, the walls covered in color pencil and crayon drawings presumably done by kindergarten students. The bulletin boards are decorated with dorky and encouraging messages. On one of them, there’s a big cutout of a cartoon honeybee with a speech bubble telling her to ‘BEE Positive!’ She would’ve gagged at the sight when she was a kid.
But her child isn’t her. They’re their own person. She feels their hand tense up in hers and gives it an affirming squeeze. ‘I think you’re really gonna like it here,’ she wants to tell them.
That’s when she sees her.
Behind the teacher’s desk in all her glory, sits Adora fucking Grayskull.
“Hi,” says Catra’s ex-girlfriend with a big smile plastered across her flawless face. “You must be Finn’s mom.”

Summary
Whoever the hell Catra’s soulmate was, they seemed to get banged up a lot. She was always waking up with random marks. For the first few years, it was the normal dings that a kid gets. In her teens, the bruises got bigger, like they were into karate or football or some other kind of contact sport. Over the last couple of years though, Catra had started to receive marks in the middle of the night. At first, she thought her soulmate was a cop (which, gross cause ACAB). Maybe a burglar? She’d hoped maybe they were a certain firefighter she knew. Last night confirmed it though.
Catra, who never had anything normal happen to her, was matched with a godsdamn 8-foot tall glowing monster. How fitting.
All she ever wanted was to hide in the background and be medium-happy. That wasn’t a lot to ask! Now she knew she was bound – completely, cosmically, irrevocably – to something weird and supernatural.
Catra was, quite honestly, scared shitless.
5 times Catra's mysterious soulmate saves her life. And the 1 time she gets to return the favor.

Summary
For Catra, life was completely monotonous, placid and happy.
She had her classes at the university, her inseparable and eccentric friends with whom she shared an apartment, and her unruly dance school students whom she loved like little brothers and sisters. Everything was simple, with no excessive worries or dramas to dampen her routine. Until life forced her to cross paths with someone completely opposite to her.
Adora was tall, incredibly strong, absurdly beautiful... and a complete walking disaster, with more demons inside her than anyone Catra had ever met and a life full of regrets.
Catra knew she was making a mistake by meddling in Adora's life, but the blonde's innocent smile and sadness-laden blue eyes convinced her that she had to help her somehow, even at the cost of her own emotional stability.
She just hoped she was strong enough for that.

Summary
Adora and Catra have been competing with each other for years.
Their rivalry had started freshman year of high school during debate team practice. The topic was should high schoolers get after school jobs? Adora was for and Catra was against. It ended in Catra accusing Adora of wanting to abolish child labor laws and with Adora calling Catra a dumb face. Ever since then they have been constantly in competition with one another whether it was grades, sports, or well anything really.
Now they are attending the same college. However, college is a lot bigger than high school and they are in separate majors so the likelihood of them running into each other is slim right?
