and love's the best sensation, hiding in the lion's mane by celaenos

Summary
Regina takes a moment to study Emma. She wonders what form this woman’s dæmon would take, if it were outside of her and visible. She tries to find the traces of Henry in her. Tries not to reach out and strangle the woman and be done with it. It’s tempting. She’s wanted this woman dead since she was merely an idea blooming inside of Snow White’s womb. And now, she is here. She is Henry’s birth mother.
(or, the one where it's a dæmon fusion au).

Summary
In a blink, Emma is right behind her. “Down, girl,” she whispers. “You can’t lob a fireball at a guy making minimum wage.”
“I absolutely can,” she whispers back. “If he deserves it.”

Summary
She wonders, if it were Ruby in front of her instead of Jet, if that would be that. She doesn’t know. Everything that she knew about the royal family before a few days ago came from rumors and gossip. As it is, Jet doesn’t let up. She shifts her whole body towards Saccharina, eyes scanning her as though she could see something that she might have missed.

Summary
Morgana pushes herself up slowly, looking around. She is in the backseat of a car, in what looks like a vast and empty desert, pulled off against the side of a highway. No cars, no people anywhere that she can see. A blonde woman is sleeping in the front passenger seat. Morgana stares at her, confusion overwhelming, even as the dawning horror builds the longer that Morgana studies her features. The sharp edges are there: the tilt of her chin, the shape of her nose, the way that her mouth opens just slightly—it’s all there plain as day, and Morgana feels faint. Furious. Terrified. Why now, after all this time?
She crawls over, flinging open the backseat and vomits down into the dirt.
In the front seat of the Cadillac, the reincarnation of her brother wakes with a start.

Summary
Despite herself, Elena laughs. Almost a giggle, and Elena watches as it does something horribly fond to Katherine’s face in the mirror reflection. She catches it though, the same moment that Elena does, and then her mouth twists slightly and it’s nothing like a smile.

let me wrap my teeth around the world by celaenos for Calacious

Summary
She is born screaming—most babies are, if they’re lucky—but Grams always says that Red screamed as though she already knew the world that she was born into was horseshit. Brutal and cold. She knew the score from the get-go, and she wasn’t happy about it. Smart girl, Grams whispers, cradling her close, you keep those lungs ready and those teeth sharp.
She is not actually named Red—that nickname comes later. Easier, to keep anonymous. Easier to slip underneath the radar. Easier to slip away from hands that grasp and pinch, from eyes that linger.

Summary
When she stops and thinks about it, really allows herself to, the most alive she has ever felt was working with Sherlock; taking down Moriarty, the three of them in a strange dance together during the Kayden Fuller case. If she’s truly honest with herself, that awful thrill is what Joan wants. Even if it comes with a cost.

Summary
It’s not quite the first time that they’ve done this—Laudna taking care of Imogen after a nightmare, that is—but it is the first time that Imogen has ever requested to be held. It’s… strange, to sit beside her and wrap her arms around Imogen. Not in a bad way, necessarily, just… unfamiliar. Laudna hasn’t held another person in, well, not since long before her death. Her arms are a little stiff, her body is all bones, and she can’t imagine that it’s giving Imogen any sort of comfort

Summary
Donna could move over, should, even, but she doesn’t. Their bare shoulders are pressed together, and it’s… oddly nice. She and Gordon are… well, not in any better place than they were in Texas, actually. And Joanie is in a phase where she thinks she’s too old for hugs and snuggles. Haley’s not far behind. And Donna is a little more touch-starved than she realized, apparently, if Cameron’s shoulders are doing it for her right now.

Summary
The day that it happens, Mercymorn breaks her favorite coffee mug.
It’s frankly, an absurd detail to focus on, but it sticks inside her mind for centuries, nevertheless. Her world shatters apart, and her favorite sunflower yellow mug cracks and splinters into clay shards.
The color yellow still makes her queasy, millennia later.

thought love was something, we weren't, meant to find by celaenos

Summary
“You’re the princess,” Regina sneers. “Snow White’s spawn.” It’s a phrase that she’s heard Mother say more than once over the years, and something about the flare of Emma’s eyes makes Regina grin devilishly back at her. “Interesting…” she drawls. She’s heard of the princess, of course. Her birth was a whole kingdom wide affair—total nonsense. Mother knew Snow White’s mother, Eva, back in her youth, when she was still trying to integrate herself into the court. In another life, Mother could have ousted Queen Eva and been Snow White’s mother, instead—had her plans gone according to her wishes.
Instead, the two of them haunt the west woods together. A different kind of power on display.

Summary
That voice is not one Regina ever thought she would hear again. She has imagined it so many times over the years—she must simply be imagining it, now. That has to be it. Regina goes absolutely still, like prey. A primal instinct she hasn’t felt from herself since Mother was alive. Beside her, Henry grabs at her arm. “Okay, Mom, don’t be mad, please—” he quickly whispers.
Before Regina can strangle her son, or move, or run out of the cabin, Emma Swan walks into the room and jolts to a stop at the sight of them. “Oh,” she breathes out. “Fuck.”

Summary
The first time that Ianthe sees Harrowhark Nonagesimus, Reverend Daughter of Drearburh and Heir to the House of Ninth, she seems like an unremarkable little twit with some idiotic face paint.
