Summary
She turns back around and picks up Abby’s hands to try and rub warmth back into them. She very pointedly does not acknowledge the pang in her chest, and how much it feels like when she found her, starved and tied to a post. Then, Joel’s lessons on survival ring in her brain.
Warm the body first. Losing a finger or two ain’t nothing compared to dying. Okay? Dry heat until they are no longer in danger, and then move ‘em to a warm bath if ya have one on hand.
Abby isn’t going to get warm enough like this. Lying stiff on the ground, her eyes close as she loses consciousness again. Ellie presses her fingers to her pulse. It’s too slow. She’s still too cold.
There was, another bit of advice that Joel gave.
Now Ellie, sometimes you’re not gonna have enough blankets to get ‘em warm. Or maybe they don’t have much time. If that’s the case, body heat works well.
Ellie closes her eyes and swallows.
If she was going to go to all of this trouble to save Abby in the first place, she can’t just stop at the finish line.

Summary
Trinity doesn’t think the permanent addition of Dr. Al-Hashimi will change much about the ED. That changes after an impromptu offer to watch her kid for the evening. One night leads to another, which bleeds into a familiarity Trinity hadn’t known she was missing.
Or,
Trinity falls hard. She doesn’t know how to navigate it.

Behold! The Murder Wives AU That Was Promised!

Or:
Viserys never weds Alicent, Rhaenyra ascends the Iron Throne, Rhaenyra and Alicent get to be happy, Rhaenys becomes Hand, and the queers live happily ever after.Need I say more?

Summary
Trinity Santos is three hours into a double shift, alone in the break room, when her phone buzzes with an unknown number. A stranger has sent a photo by accident, a red dress, an ornate mirror, a bare back, and is immediately, catastrophically mortified about it.
Trinity is polite. She says she deleted it. She saves the contact as 'very hot stranger 🔥'.
That's where it starts.Wrong number. Slow burn. Enemies to lovers. SMAU-adjacent.

Summary
The climb is steeper than Sciel remembers, and the metal groans softly beneath her as she ascends the final ladder. Her hand ghosts along rusted beams warped by time and ink, passing the old scratched initials—lovers used to come up here, the letterings long since faded with the oxidation.
She almost laughs at herself. What was she hoping for? That the room might still feel the same? That she might feel the same?
Then she steps inside, and the moment her eyes adjust—
“Sciel,” Lune says in a breath caught somewhere in between. Her guitar disappears in a flurry of chroma particles. “Of course you’d run into me up here.”
or, Maelle stays in the canvas and life goes on, just not as Sciel once imagined.
