    Summary

    “What?”

    “You’re being clumsy, Leonhart.”

    It was common knowledge that those scrawny, barrack bunk beds didn’t give much leeway—even for one person—so for two rowdy girls, it wasn’t easy.

    But they made do.

    Summary

    “It still doesn’t feel real,” Caitlyn said as they walked. “That the worst is over, that we’re standing on the other side.”

    A flock of starlings swept free of the cliffs, and they paused to watch them go. Caitlyn adjusted the shawl again, the same wind that kicked the surface of the water into peaks blowing the hair back from her face. Vi’s breath lodged against her ribs, like a hand over her heart.

    “Maybe there is no other side,” Vi said. “Maybe it’s all one thing.”

    Caitlyn's got a house in the country, and Vi's got time.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A sequel dearly required. Atmosphere, philosophy, deep, ACCURATE character studies and the most hot emotional smut ever. I will keep reading this over and over and so should you.

    Summary

    A beat thuds from the stereo, so heavy it rattles the coins in the well of the passenger door. The crease deepens in Vi’s cheek until the smile breaks through, and when they’re back on the highway with the wind thundering through the open windows, sun on her skin and her hair cutting across her vision so that Vi comes to her in flashes of white teeth and black glasses, in arms shifting to the sixth gear, her voice full and loose as she sings, Caitlyn stops herself from closing her eyes around the moment because she can already see herself years from now running her thumb over this one like a worn photo from a wallet and she doesn’t want to be there yet, in the future where all of this is behind her — she wants to be here, now and in it, in the possibility that it could go on forever. Like asphalt, like sun.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This. This is it. A story so wonderfully written it will ingrain itself in the deepest crevices of your brain, and whenever you’re next to a lake in early summer or in a van in the countryside, it will be where you are. Go read it.

    Summary

    The image flashes back from Vi’s memory — Caitlyn lying unconscious on the hospital bed, her head half wrapped with thick bandages, hair still crusted with blood. The tubes in her arms, the smell of disinfectant, the muffled intelligible voices in the background, Vi aching and exhausted sitting by her shoulder to watch her breathe for hours.

     

    Healing is a slow process, inside and out.

    Summary

    “So that’s why I bring Violet Wickett up,” says the first, feminine voice, “because there’s two things that have defined Vi her entire career. How hard she plays as a forward, especially on defence, and her rivalry with Caitlyn Kiramman.”

    “See, if I’m Mel Medarda, I’m not even giving Wickett another glance. I’m taking Kiramman with my first pick and grabbing from the end of the Ironfist’s bench.”

    “That’s what makes this so delicious, though, Jack. Mel Medarda can get both of them.”

    --

    Hockey AU. The RHL is expanding, and both Caitlyn and Vi are up for grabs, their rivalry being a well documented storyline in the RHL for twelve years. What happens, however, when they're both taken to a new team? What happens when a relationship forged in belief of only seeing each other once in a while on road games is faced with playing beside each other every day?
