sparkle by @jezmatronwrites - Adora is trying to get some details for her latest blog entry, this time in New York. Unfortunately, a prior mistake comes to bite her in the proverbial in the form of an angry, glittery bundle of energy. How will Adora tackle the persistent and weirdly ever-present menace? Someone who invades your privacy needs to get a stern talking to, obviously.
planted by resflower - Adora's terrible with plants but they make her happy. Catra just wants her girlfriend happy.
no smoke without fire by jezmatron - Adora is a firefighter - she lives to do well by her community. But currently she finds herself back at the same damn apartment block rescuing cats and putting out trash fires whilst a certain hetero-chromatic eyed girl watches.
season renewed by jezmatron - Adora and Catra are the leads on a show that has just aired its finale. Now, on a deserted set, these old estranged friends reminisce and have a final showdown.
POP FEUD by @n7punk - Catra got the opportunity to perform on the VMAs main stage and she used it to make it obvious to everyone what popstar her breakup songs are about – Adora included, because she didn’t even know Catra was making music until she was watching from the side of the stage. The public has front row seats to watch as their feud and relationship unfolds online, in the tabloids, and through fan interactions. As public figures, everything about their story is told through the public eye, and interpretation of their music isn’t up to them anymore. (Or, my third popstar Catradora AU but let’s not talk about that)
princess prom and slaughter soiree by @crack-fic-casey - The All-Princess Ball is the focal point of Etherian Royal Culture. Whichever kingdom hosts it would spend literal years preparing the greatest food, the most wonderful music for every Princess in the world to enjoy. The anticipation for the event is astronomical! For Perfuma, it's a chance to meet more people like her. She's been feeling the burnout from protecting Plumeria alone, and desperately needs a night free of drama and chaos. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like her date with Bow will give her the respite she needs. Glimmer wants to make more friends and prove her value as a Princess. But when Bow and Catra abandon her for people they just met, she feels forced to take drastic measures. All Catra wants is a good time with all her new friends together, but when her ex-Best Friend from the Horde shows up, she's left flailing for the right thing to do. And Adora seems to have everything she said she wanted; a Force Captain's badge, a squad under her command, and the praise of her superiors. Why is she risking everything? Is it just to see Catra again-- or does she have a darker agenda?
the orrery by @thiakerrigan - She should start to grieve, that's what the stories say. She should say goodbye, once for each moon, and let Catra go. But her First Ones blood, or maybe the heart that pumps it, screams that something is wrong. She can't let go of Catra, and Catra can't let go of her, and every ghost story she's ever heard says that that spells disaster for the both of them… but she has to see it through. The moons are turning. Etheria is trying to finish something it started. And Adora is running out of time.
the devil i know by @tippenfunkaport - Glimmer's a demon hunter with a rare gift: the ability to sense demonic energy and identify otherworldly threats before they reveal themselves. As a hunter, she's a ruthless fighter, but, off the job, she hides a painful secret: she's trapped in an abusive relationship she can't seem to escape. She's hiding the reality of her home life from her team, ashamed she can't face her personal demons as well as the literal ones. Until she arrives home to find the biggest otherworldly she's ever met, so powerful she can barely defend herself against it before it overloads her gift and knocks her unconscious. When she wakes, the threat is gone, but something's off. It's not like her boyfriend can't be nice when he wants to be, but his care with her recovery seems different than the usual manipulative lovebombing. He's baking, helping around the house, actually taking an interest in her life. Almost like he's an entirely different person. If there's a demon possessing her boyfriend, especially one that powerful, what Glimmer needs to do is tell her team so they can eliminate it before it can threaten humanity. What she absolutely should NOT do is fall in love.
shadow weaver vs the machine @irc-d-x-ao3 - Shadow Weaver, a prominent albeit problematic sorcery tutor in Mystacor’s college, is slowly being replaced by none other than an Artificial Intelligence bot that she herself helped create. Having ignored the warnings of her fellows, she’s now at risk of losing her job entirely, while the bot that displaced her breaks havoc in Mystacor. If the Horde Enterprises remains unpunished, their bot online, and the sorcery pupils lazy, tragedy may be closer than expected.
an ace up my sleeve by @es272, @mydarlingdearestdead - The Ocean has cared for Mermista since she was a babe, crawling through tidepools and roaring with laughter at the sensation of waves lapping at her toes. At nineteen, following the utter desertion of her father some years previous, she has little to occupy herself aside from her annual reread of all eighteen Mer-Mystery books and the occasional opportunity to traumatise a few sailors. When her actions disturb her protector, Mermista is forced for the first time to disobey the Ocean in order to save the a life. Unfortunately, that life belongs to an awfully attractive and disturbingly endearing pirate who rather enjoys punishing her kind deed with greatly exaggerated tales of swashbuckling adventure. That, of course, is the universe's sense of humour kicking into gear. Yet, even as she protests, there is something about Sea Hawk that makes her question this hyperconfident exterior of his… But if he is going to offer to do her laundry, gods know she will not be ruining a good thing by psychoanalysing the guy. Probably. If she can help herself.
