Promising You Peace And Love While Sharpening The Knife by waywordpine

Summary
Set during "Unbroken," Dahlia and Kahlan are thrown nearly 200 years into the past with only each other to find a begrudging familiarity in. As they enter a tense, conditional alliance, the two discover the truth about the Mord-Sith and Confessors, the real core of each other, and that perhaps where one ends up is far more important than a dream of an intended life.

Summary
Dahlia had never seen blue eyes so clear, so deep, so much like the sky and the great, wide ocean all at the same time. The Mord-Sith wondered if she had ever seen true beauty or known unconditional love until Kahlan had wrapped her hand around Dahlia’s neck and forced this indelible Confessor’s touch unto her. Dahlia had seen the light of creation for only a moment, but she wanted to keep it forever.
Where is the line between confession and love? Magic and adoration? When Kahlan confesses Dahlia in "Unbroken," there is nothing that Dahlia can think of but Kahlan Amnell.

Summary
“Tell me, Dahlia. Why did you take her back to that place where nothing thrives if it does not suffer?” Kahlan said, all the malice gone out of her voice and leaving nothing but the tender compassion she so clearly held for Cara.
Dahlia let out a small chuckle in spite of herself, the corner of her lips rising up not in a sarcastic sneer, but in a genuine smile of disbelief. “I took her back because I needed her. I am nothing without Cara.”
A reimagining of "Eternity." Cara gives Dahlia a second chance to become something better than her betrayal. With the help of Kahlan and Cara, will Dahlia take another path, or will she continue to barrel down until there is nothing left of her but malice and emptiness?

Summary
“Real is such a slippery word, isn’t it? We use it to mean true, but what is real and not real in a world of magic like ours? Fiction is just as valuable as fact. I think imagination is far more delectable.”
Double Trouble gives Catra exactly what she's been running after, and often away from, ever since Adora abandoned her in the Fright Zone.

Summary
"We don't split up, we don't leave. We ride together, always."
Kahlan and Cara have been on their own for quite some time. They know each other's movements, they know where each other's loyalties lie, and they also know they are far more similar than they think. When left to their own devices, what will become of them? How do you find love when it has always been there, waiting for you, even after you have ignored it all this time?
Set during Book 6, Faith of the Fallen. Some extended scenes, some canon divergence, all sapphic wish fulfillment circa 2010's.

Summary
“There was no need for words when it was the end of the world, when it was your last chance, when it was the only thing that mattered. Cara had never gotten so close to exactly what she wanted, never like this. Only in stories was life so delicious, only in fables did anyone really get what they deserved, what they craved, what they would happily die for.”
Kahlan has a little more quality time with Cara in “Unbroken.”

Summary
“You will not bind his hands,” Kahlan said with a voice that roared forward from decades lived and gone. “You will not.”
What happens to trauma? It lives in the body.

Summary
"There must have been a good reason for the flowers; perhaps it was the arduous trek back to Barren Light, where she kept looking for Aloy to be by her side while she took down two Rollerbacks, three Widemaws, and several dozen Burrowers on her way. She had wondered through it all how many tenacious machines Aloy had overcome on her own path here. All the while, Talanah had found herself searching everywhere for Nora arrows with their signature blue and red fletchings."
A documentation of Talanah's valiant attempts to court Aloy.
