Summary
Ruby had never cared for wasting around, so she reckoned that the wait shortened was better than wondering when the Home Guard was going to come bash down the door and shoot her... And when other trouble presented itself, she was ready for that, too.

Bookmarker's Notes
"Think first," Ruby whispered, attempting to be as gentle as possible. "Think. Make your head work, Ada. Try forget what your body wants. I'll never say no if you think on it and tell me you want me still."

Summary
Clarke can’t meet Lexa’s eyes when she presses the dagger to her throat.
She’s not the one Clarke wants to hurt and she knows it, deep down, beneath the bits of her that are ripped to shreds, that will never be stitched back together.
Clarke comes to Polis to kill Lexa and stays because it's the path of least resistance, or at least that’s what she tells herself. This fic starts at the knife scene in the season 3 trailer and then takes on a life of its own from there. (Happy ending included.)

She leaves Lexa there with the mess, leaves it behind for the Heda to figure out. “Heda says you’re her heart, so she loves you.”/“I did love Heda once, but we were in war and sacrifices had to be made. Heda, sacrificed me for the good of her people.”/“The Heda is loyal only to her people. She lives and fights for the survival of her people, and at that time, the Skaikru, I wasn’t hers to fight for.”

Summary
Buffy's in some trouble. Faith to the rescue. It goes badly, and leads to a prophesied apocalypse. So, Tuesday.
This was written over a span of about two years between 2007-2009 ish. Archiving here for science.
There are a lot of things in this story that bother me, but there are also parts of this story that I love more than I can explain, that still make me cry or laugh or cringe. So I'm keeping it, warts and all, exactly as it is.
Hit me up with some feedbacks if you're feeling generous.

clarke leaves camp jaha to get her shit together. instead, she gets a baby with no chill and a journey to polis with the one and only, lexa.
