Summary
“You’re too pretty to be a nun,” she—the patient, the charming patient, Ava Silva, 19, no family, paralyzed from the neck down—tells Beatrice when she walks into the room.
Beatrice doesn't know what to say to that. She doesn’t spend much time looking at herself except to smooth out her hair, to make sure there are no stray pieces of lint on her shirt. She definitely hasn’t thought about the word pretty in relation to herself.
“I’m not,” she tells Ava directly.
“Not pretty or not a nun?"

Summary
In a blink, Emma is right behind her. “Down, girl,” she whispers. “You can’t lob a fireball at a guy making minimum wage.”
“I absolutely can,” she whispers back. “If he deserves it.”

the lesser-known island of lesbros (or how zelena mills got her groove back) by coalitiongirl
Fandoms: Once Upon a Time (TV)
27 May 2022

Summary
Zelena twists around again to gape at Emma, who is staring at the woman with the same intensity. With familiar intensity, and Emma turns her head very slowly and catches Zelena’s eyes. “No,” Emma says, but it’s too late.
Like recognizes like. Painfully straight Emma Swan, who has a dozen men chasing her at all times, from the way that Regina tells it, is gay. And it suddenly all makes sense.
“You have the hots for my sister!” Zelena says, maliciously delighted. “How embarrassing.”

Summary
"Seven hundred and thirty six days.
Nicole isn’t sure why the detail pops into her head first. There’s a noisy cadence of other thoughts crowding her brain, begging for acknowledgement, yet she’s stuck on a number.
Seven hundred and thirty six days since she last laid eyes on Waverly Earp. And now, one simple fact is staring her in the face in the form of wild brown eyes and ash smeared cheeks.
There won’t be a seven hundred and thirty seventh."
Or, the one where Waverly gets sucked through a hell dimension portal weeks before Wynonna gives birth, and everyone struggles to figure out how to go on without her. When she returns unexpectedly to find everything has changed in her absence, things get even more difficult.

Summary
Emma reaches for Regina’s hand again, but Regina’s moved her ice cream to it instead. “Though, I mean, if I were into women, your mom would definitely be first on my list,” Emma tells Henry.
“I’m flattered,” Regina says dryly.
Her voice sounds a little strained, and Emma tries to lighten the tone. She hadn’t thought Regina would be uncomfortable with the idea of…well, Henry has two mommies, but the Enchanted Forest had seemed a little regressive. “What? Are you saying I’m not on your list?”
“Yes, Emma,” Regina says, and she barks out a choked laugh of her own. “If I were into women, you would definitely be on my list.”
[A year in the lives of Emma and Regina, falling in love all the way through and doing every bit of it backwards.]

Summary
Lena casts her mind around for the last time she felt this unmoored, this off-balance, by a woman, and can't come up with anything. Kara Danvers is unlike anybody that Lena has ever met; the sweetest, bubbliest person Lena’s yet to come across, and simultaneously one of the saddest, who is probably lying to everyone that she meets. It’s an impossible contradiction to wrap your head around, and Lena should probably stop hiding in this bathroom and trying.
(Or, Kara and Lena get parent-trapped into a relationship by a goofy little alien.)

'What did you do? What you would’ve done: save my people.' At this point you could say this to everyone. Lexa was right: this is war, and you were a great leader. You saved your people. You did not save yourself.
or: clarke wanders in grief; polis is full of a slight understanding when she arrives.
