Summary
'Before you,' he said, 'you can see more women than warriors. Cowardly, unarmed, they will give up the moment they see the weapons and bravery of their conquerors who have given them such a drubbing so many times before.' (Tacitus, Annals XIV.36)
The first time Clarke sees the Head Girl she’s sitting on a throne, presiding over her dominion with a piercing stare and a crown of braids in her hair. Her warriors are spread at her feet, a multitude of them, all long-haired and wild and clad in identical brown regalia. There’s something of the sacred about her, like the crimson cloak draped across her shoulders and her divinity are one and the same.
Or at least it feels that way.
British girls' boarding school AU. Obviously.

Summary
The tip of your nose is still frozen when you push open your bedroom door with a mighty sigh, more than ready to get into some warm pyjamas and forget about the awful weather. Instead, a tiny figure in a giant men’s t-shirt leaps off her bottom bunk and grins the biggest grin at you.
“Anya! Guess what? Guess what, Anya?”
(You forget about the cold entirely.)
**Christmas prequel to More Women than Warriors with 5-year-old Lexa and 10-year-old Anya**
