Summary
“It still doesn’t feel real,” Caitlyn said as they walked. “That the worst is over, that we’re standing on the other side.”
A flock of starlings swept free of the cliffs, and they paused to watch them go. Caitlyn adjusted the shawl again, the same wind that kicked the surface of the water into peaks blowing the hair back from her face. Vi’s breath lodged against her ribs, like a hand over her heart.
“Maybe there is no other side,” Vi said. “Maybe it’s all one thing.”
*
Caitlyn's got a house in the country, and Vi's got time.

Summary
Vi rolled her eyes slightly, shrugging and still refusing to meet her sister’s gaze. “Right. So you find me a date that doesn’t know what I look like, I go out with her looking… less hot, and then if she sticks around that proves she likes me for my great personality.”
With a slightly screwed up expression that meant she was about to argue back, Caitlyn sat back in her seat and crossed her arms again, giving a little shrug.
“Fine. I’ll give it a shot. You set me up with a woman who doesn’t know who I am, and I’ll give it a fair try. See if my horrid personality doesn’t scare her away.”
Believing they keep attracting shallow dates, Vi and Caitlyn separately agree to go ‘undercover’ for their next one, hiding parts of themselves. When they’re unknowingly set up with each other, they both struggle between wanting to being authentic and wanting to stubbornly prove a point, as they’re forced to rely on their personalities to make the relationship work.
A romcom loosely inspired by ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days’

Summary
(I’m petrified of this power you hold over me. Humans were not meant to love like a necromancer— to love as though you are controlling the very bones in my body, rebirthing me from a soil that I had not known I was buried in.)
“You owe it to us, to tell me what’s going on,” Vi murmurs, and Caitlyn trembles in her hold.
“If I say it,” Caitlyn says, and feels the regret building already, the way sediment builds on banks. “If I say it, then it becomes real. And I don’t— I want us to work, Violet. Fucking hell, please don’t make say it.”

Summary
Neighbours AU.
Vi gets a new neighbour—a rich English woman with a stick up her ass who seems determined to make her life a living hell.
Vi makes it her mission to get Caitlyn to move back out as quickly as she moved in. Only, she’s hot. Really hot. And Vi kind of likes it when they fight.
Thin walls soon reveal that there’s more to Caitlyn than meets the eye and Vi’s initial irritation turns to curiosity, then something a lot harder to ignore.
To complicate matters and her feelings further, Caitlyn's getting married.

Summary
When Caitlyn left England and everything she knew behind to pursue her dream of becoming an artist in America, she never expected it to be quite so lonely.
Canvases, sketchbooks, and art classes fill her days, but never the emptiness.
After a chance encounter with Vi and a complete lapse in professional judgement, Caitlyn finds herself offering Vi an arrangement: art lessons in exchange for Vi modelling for her.
Vi, of course, agrees.
OR
Caitlyn loses all sense the moment she meets Vi, resulting in her volunteering as a nude model for her own art class. Vi ends up coming. So does Caitlyn.
