Summary
Soul and Maka arrive at their college reunion after five years of radio silence, with still-aching wounds and a once-unbreakable friendship in tatters. After Soul's motorcycle breaks down two thousand miles from home, he and Maka embark on a cross-country road trip from Nevada to the east coast. With only time and each other for company, they have memories to relive, old misunderstandings to unearth, and simmering feelings that they're both still trying to smother. A story about first love, second chances, and figuring out who you want to be, no matter how long it takes.

Summary
"It’s clear that she thinks the whole ‘vampire’ thing is an elaborate roleplay of some kind. She doesn’t seem to mind, though - she enjoys being at the house, coffins and all, and has adapted remarkably easily to Wes opening doors and windows on his own, easily joking about his ‘ghost brother’ in a way that makes him wonder if she subconsciously knows everything already."
The power goes out in the castle on All Soul's Day. Luckily there's enough candlelight to go around.

Summary
"She reaches into the bag and pulls out the first leaf she can find, bright green and kind of shiny in the lamplight. She holds it above her forearm, preparing to witness the reaction as she lets out an anticipatory little cackle: 'Eheheh-'
'What are you doing?'
Her head flicks up, spotlight swinging wildly in the dark until it finds the source of the disruption, standing on the bridge above her: purple-haired, far too beautiful, and wearing an expression of vague disappointment."

Summary
"Plum blossoms, among their aforementioned uses, happen to soothe the stomach. When she had relayed this information to Jinshi, he’d placed her on brewing duty for the foreseeable future, doing that twinkling thing he always does when he wants to get his way.
A shudder passes through her. She really hates it; the twinkling. But what can she do? If Maomao has blossoms, Jinshi has beauty; beauty galore, beauty in excess. He, too, is a victim of the rear palace in his own way, and it’s only natural that he wields his weapon strategically. It’s the only way to survive in this place, eunuch or... or not."
The rear palace collectively catches a stomach bug, and Maomao must make tea for its twinkliest, neediest resident.

Summary
“Little brother,” Wes says, “You’ve got to put on the charms! You need to make a fair maiden see you for who you really are - neither bark nor bite, don’t you see?”
Soul groans, far too familiar with Wes’s abysmal pep talks. “What I need,” he grumbles, “is more candelabras.”
Fallen victim to a witch’s curse, Soul must find someone who sees him for who he really is. Unfortunately, this comes with a pretty steep HomeGoods price tag.

Summary
"hebrew doesn't have a distinction in the way that 'volere' and 'amore' are distinct, but his voice is raw when 'ohev' comes out of his mouth and he worries that she'll know regardless."
or: soul reminisces about his cultural heritage as maka practices her own mother tongue.

Summary
Coming to terms with your childhood is a lot more difficult when you grew up in an orphanage/cult with very strict ideas about religion. Adora ran away, Catra burned the bridge, and neither of them are sure how to act when they meet again five years later.
College-AU about friendship, found family, and how much five years can really change a person.

Summary
Adora is shaking, nothing but frayed nerves. "H-Hey," she whispers. She carefully adjusts her hold to turn the girl over in her arms, searching for a face. "I've got you, don't worry."
The girl looks up at her again, and it's just as she thought. Mismatched eyes, one blue and one goldish-brown, look straight through her, too groggy to show a hint of recognition, but they're hers all the same ...
"C-Catra?" she tries unsteadily, eyes brimming with tears.
She gets a small, pained smile in return. "H-Hey... Adora."
(Adora and Catra reunite six years after a bad falling out in a dying world ravaged by extreme weather and rampant disease. Can they learn to come together again when dire circumstances try so desperately to pull them apart?)

Summary
She’s double-checking her locker to make sure she hasn’t forgotten anything when a voice from behind her says, “Hey, Adora.”
Every nerve in Adora’s body sparks. The voice is impossible—subtly raspy, teasing, familiar.
(Four years after Adora moves away, Catra walks into the University of Bright Moon gym locker room and back into Adora's life. Some things have changed: Catra's hair is short now, they both go to therapy, Adora has a tattoo. Some things—Adora's hair poof, Catra's laugh, the magnetic draw between them that only grows stronger the closer they get to each other—are still the same.)
