Summary
The year is 2082. Temperatures reach record-breaking highs. More than 80% of the population fall below the poverty line. The world's leading corporations and CEOs continue to live comfortably.
Welcome to Styx City, populated by a mix of humans and bioengineered people developed by Nyx Industries. These new type of humans are known as the Keres. Despite protests and treaties for their freedom, the Keres still live under a closely surveyed rule, seen only as ‘just androids pretending to be real people’. Some Keres choose to accept the life they've been given. Others choose to break free and Disconnect, forming their own identities and becoming Offline Keres, or 'Ghosts'. This is an action punishable by death.
In this city of neon, two people--Catra, a bartender with many secrets, and Adora, an Angel who feels undeserving of her wings--try to survive with their own sets of problems and regrets. The city should've turned them cold, but instead, they find warmth with each other. Their forbidden bond is sometimes the only thing that can keep them going.
And if their bond somehow lasts, it might be what changes Styx City forever.
A Catradora Cyberpunk AU.

Summary
Untitled Rich Catra Story is the love story of what happens when one driven and incredibly successful CEO walks into her regular coffeeshop and meets eyes with the most beautiful, dorky barista in the world.
Since graduating high school and launching her company, Catra has worked tirelessly to make Darla Industries the success it is today. She loves her job and works hard to take care of her employees, but has taken little time to have fun and be like any other 20 something. Enter Adora with her puns, smug smiles, and kind heart to help her slow down and enjoy life. Meanwhile, the barista can't believe it when the woman she's been falling for turns out to be a multi-millionaire. The idea of being taken care of and spoiled for once in her life takes some getting used to, but Catra is more than happy to help her get there.

Summary
“Eh, who hasn’t sent a text by mistake. Not a big deal, Adora!” Bow cheerfully soothed. “I’m sure whoever gets it will understand.”
“Well, um, yes that’s true. But I sort of… the text said, ‘That’s some WAP.’”
It was just a fumble. Completely just pure chance that after Adora had flopped the last two digits of Glimmer’s new telephone number with that ridiculously embarrassing text it would lead to Catra entering her life. But now that they were there… Adora couldn’t imagine her day without them.
A wrong number modern AU.
