    Summary

    “The problem is that you people – living people – make it all about you. ‘Ahh, there’s a ghost and it’s haunting me. Ahh, it’s out to get me.’ A haunting is not about you. It’s about us. It’s about what we can’t let go of.”
    _

    When car troubles cause Beau to seek shelter at Hythe Manor, the manor’s moody caretaker immediately catches her eye. As Yasha’s charm, or lack thereof, draws Beau in, it begins to appear as though things at Hythe Manor are not entirely as they seem.

    A modern AU inspired by The Haunting of Bly Manor.

    Summary

    Beau's been in this city for two years, and she's made a life for herself with the help of the friends she was lucky to fall in with early on. A steady job at the library, a best friend for a roommate, and a sense of belonging that evaded her prior to breaking free from her old life. She winds up with a huge dog and soon after makes friends with Yasha, a quiet but striking woman who starts turning up in her life. Obviously, those two things are absolutely coincidental and unrelated.

    Things seem to be going really well between them, but in spite of Beau's best efforts she never seems to be able to hang out with Yasha for more than a couple of hours before Yasha has to go. She's a bad liar, but Beau doesn't want to press her for details. Something related to Yasha's past, she can respect that.

    And then Yasha's past becomes present, and Beau's got to make sense of Yasha's history if either of them is going to have a future.

    Summary

    The events of the solstice cause Caleb and Beau to miss their nightly check-in. That wouldn't go over well at the best of times, but the moon's gone all weird and it's not long at all before arrangements are made to come and get them, wherever they are.

    Beauyasha emotional hurt/comfort, because everything went white and there aren't a lot of conclusions you can draw from that when you're chained to the floor watching the results of your failure. Spoilers for c3 e51 + an attempt to ease everyone worried about the empire kids. (Caleb has the ring of telepathy he took from Ickythong.)

    Summary

    Yasha’s jaw went slack, and her eyebrows shot upwards as she took in Beau’s form standing dumbstruck in the warm glow of the overhead lights, gingerbread man hanging from her mouth, mid-way through her first bite.
    “Beau?”
    “Yasha?”
    ----
    At 18 years old Beau leaves her hometown and all her friends behind to run away to a college a thousand miles away in the hope that maybe some distance will help her get over her unrequited love for her best friend.

    At 22 Beau returns home for the holidays and finds that running away did nothing but tear everything apart.

    Its a BeauYasha holiday AU y'all, there's angst, there's fluff and most importantly, there's disaster lesbians

    Summary

    Life for Luz these days are made of ordinary things: an apartment to share with her hot-as-hell dopey girlfriend, a collection of unmatching Tupperware sets, letting go or be dragged by inner turmoil, shenanigans of the Demon Realm variety, the daily mission of deciding what to have for dinner, and the penultimate horror of being kind to herself so she can be loved.

    This is the short collection of the ordinary of Luz's steps into adulthood. This is how she learns to love.
