    Summary

    Miss Silva sighs, dramatic and put-upon. “Alright. I suppose I wouldn’t want you to lose your stripes for the grievous crime of using my name. But if you can’t call me Ava, can you do something else for me?”

    Beatrice nods, even though it’s dangerous, even though Miss Silva could ask her for anything.

    Perhaps she nods because Miss Silva could ask her for anything.

    “Can you think of me as Ava, just in your head?” Miss Silva requests. “Even if you never say it.”

    Beatrice considers this. A truly honourable person wouldn’t agree; decorum should govern the thought as well as the action. But Beatrice is already expected to tell Miss Silva no so often that it gets harder every time, and surely this is a small enough concession that no real harm can come of it.

    -

    Or, Ava throws everything she has at chipping away Beatrice's propriety, and it only takes several years, a pirate ship, and being absolutely shameless for her to succeed.

    Summary

    Recently, Ava had been watching Youtube videos on mindfulness in an effort to try to increase the percentage of her thoughts she was able to keep just in her head. That training was about to fail her spectacularly. “One of the nuns is kind of cute.”

    Mary’s fingers paused mid stitch. Ava’s fork paused halfway to her mouth as her brain caught up with what she’d just said.

    “Ava, what the fu—”

    Or,

    Ava has to spend several weeks in a church archive. The person running the archive is a nun, and also hot. She is totally normal and respectful about this.

    Summary

    Ava does do the YouTube thing, actually, thank you very much. Mostly to her own surprise. Beatrice always has faith in her, but Ava knows that, historically speaking, her interest in something can crank up to eleven and then entirely dissipate without warning.

    But she gets a little stand to hold her phone up, and brings over the lamp from Beatrice’s desk to add a bit of extra light to the kitchen, and films herself trying to make croissants.

    Perhaps she should’ve started with something easier. Like, a lot easier. But by the time she’s realised that the pastry is an absolute disaster, she’s already made a bunch of good jokes to the camera, and so she decides this is what Beatrice would call a sunk cost fallacy and commits to it.

    -

    Ava starts a dumb YouTube channel where she makes complicated recipes badly. Maybe people show up for that, but they kind of stick around for her conversations with her roommate - who stays off-screen. Mostly.

    Summary

    Diego elbows Ava lightly in the side to get her attention. "Ava? How come you don't have a boyfriend?" he asks.

    What if it’s because of him? What if she’s so busy always trying to make sure that he’s taken care of that she’s missing out on all the things other nineteen-year-olds get to do?

    "Huh?" There's a pause, and he can almost see Ava's brain stutter into stillness before lurching back to life. "Well, um, Diego, it's like — I'm really — if I thought that — see, it’s more like —"

    He hears Lilith scoff and turns towards her. "It's not that hard. Kid, Ava's down bad for —"

    "Shut up, Lilith," Ava grinds out, cutting her off.

    After leaving St Michael’s, Ava does everything she can to support Diego, including taking him to extracurriculars. Beatrice is his aikido instructor, and it changes everything.
