    Summary

    It's almost lonely, this new calm in Imogen's head. Usually at the market she'd be treated to Laudna's light, musical inner dialogue about the ripeness of fruits or the bread Zhudanna might like best, but instead it's just quiet. All Imogen gets is what Laudna shows on her face, and the words she says out loud. Words like you don't have to listen in to get my thoughts. I'll always share them willingly. You can just ask.

    There's only one thing Imogen wants to ask right now. It's blaring in Imogen's mind like a temple bell, so loudly that even with the circlet she's sure Laudna must be able to hear it. And Laudna is looking at her so sweetly. Every moment they've been parted has made this all-consuming feeling worse, harder to pack away, and this could be her last chance to say it. Her only chance.

    She has to say it. She has to ask.

    "Can I kiss you?"

    OR

    My take on The Kiss, and what comes after.

    Summary

    She wants Beatrice to fingerprint her, to tattoo her, to leave a mark so deep not even the Halo can rid her of it. Her muscles feel too tight, stretched uncomfortably over her bones. There is something ravenous inside of her, and Beatrice is going to set it free.

    You are the only thing I've ever lived for, Beatrice says.

    You are the only thing I've ever died for, Ava says, and even that wasn't enough to keep me from you.

    Summary

    “Help me understand,” Kara says. “Are you saying everyone falls in love with their best friend?”

    “I’m saying that queer women have a special affinity for it,” Lena repeats, fishing the cherry out of the bottom of her drink. “The whole ‘falling for your straight best friend’ is basically a rite of passage.”

    “Says who?”

    “Everyone.” She puts the cherry in her mouth, bites it off the stem. “The L Word was like, built on the premise that a friend group of queer woman in LA dated each other in some sort of terrible repeating circle for, god, however many seasons that went on. And it’s been my experience that when two people are attracted to each other, and they’re close, feelings are likely to develop.”

    “That’s just, I mean, come on.” Kara’s cheeks are a little pink. “A trope and a tv show? That’s your evidence?”

    “So you’ve never been in love with your best friend?” Lena looks down at her empty glass.

    “No!” Kara sounds affronted. “No, I have never been in love with my best friend.”

    Or, A love story, told in three acts.

    Summary

    “I swear my loyalty and service to Mercedes von Martritz. My shield will be your protection and my sword will be your defense. I will be without fear when I face your enemies. I will be brave and confident in danger. I will be without hesitation at your command. I will be compassionate and kind to those in need. This I pledge. You have my sword, my loyalty, and my obedience until such time as either death or lord release me.” It was the oath that Ingrid had memorized since childhood and only uttered once before. The words fell from her lips automatically, and she felt strangely at peace. There was such comfort in those words.

    Summary

    Day and night, it’s all the same inside of Rusty CrowBar; it’s not a total dive but not really high class either. Yang’s been there since she was legal, and you see all kinds of people come and go. Most of them don’t leave an impact. It's just a few bills and some change tossed on the bar, or sometimes a phone number if she was extra charming.

    But then there’s this girl.

    She sits on the same barstool every Thursday, sad and mysterious. Yang doesn’t even know her name, but she wants to.

    Yang wants a lot when she looks at her.

    “I noticed you looking from over there, you know,” says the girl softly.

    “Oh!” Ingrid's face feels like it’s on fire. “Um, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be rude.”

    Summary

    There are a few things Yang knows for sure: nothing beats a fresh snowfall; all skiers are total nerds; her sister has never done anything wrong in her entire life; and every single time Blake Belladonna smiles at her, she feels like she’s at the top of her favorite slope, heart in her throat, board hanging over the edge. (She also knows that, someday soon, she’s going to have to do something about that last one.)

    Summary

    There are three things in life that Ruby Rose knows.

    One, that she really loves running. Is addicted to the sound of wind blowing past her ears and the feeling of her legs pushing forward and up.
    Two, that she has something to prove. To the sponsors and sports officials who scrutinise her in her late mother’s shadow. To herself, who has never felt ready to match up.

    Three, that she is in love.

    Though the last one is pretty recent. And the most terrifying, to boot.
    This is how she copes.

    (There’s a happy ending, I promise.)

    Summary

    The mechanic isn’t just pretty – she’s muscular. And sweaty. And broad. Her shoulders are wider than they look at first glance, and as she reaches up to remove her hat and wipe at her brow with her forearm, Lena can see her bicep flex.

    Lena tries very hard not to be affected by that, or by the adorable red line the ball cap leaves on the woman’s forehead.

    “Hi! I’m Kara. James said your Porsche gave out?”

    OR

    Needing to get away from the stress of her job for a few months, Lena buys a summer lake house in the most remote town she can find. She fully intends on keeping to herself, resting, and interacting as little as possible with the locals.

    Until her car breaks down, and the town mechanic happens to be the hottest woman she’s ever seen.

    Summary

    Yang's untouchable; Blake's anything but. The first time they meet can't be the first at all, not with Yang lighting up every billboard on the Sunset Strip and Blake's voice crooning through the radio regardless of the station, not when every motion of Yang's is achingly familiar and every turn of Blake's mouth leads like a staircase. It's Hollywood, and Yang's spent years learning how to get exactly what wants her - Blake's spent years running from it.

    If I could, Blake says, I'd kiss you right now.

    If I could, Yang says, I'd let you.

    Summary

    Blake looks at her and swears she can see the particles of the universe settling, can see them laid out and miraculous like a map of fates for gods, can see the stars all spinning at her from underneath a sky that could very well be a dark, murky ocean. The truth is that it's been six years of too much fear and not enough skin. This is the anatomy of breaking down.

    Date me, Yang says, which seems like a great idea at the time.
