Summary
"Max, you're going to be fine," Safi reassured. "Just take a small breath in and blow it out."
Max stared at the little joint with hesitation. Her nerves weren't made any better as Safi, Moses, Amanda, Reggie and Diamond had their eyes on the photographer.
"Reggie you promise this is like...good weed?" Max asked.
Max looked at Reggie, then back down at the joint, and then down at her hand, which Safi decided to grab.

Summary
When self-doubt glazes over Max’s eyes, Safi reprimands, warns, encourages. She suggests, laughs, teases, even when Max can only sit and stare into the void in her own head. She’s so sad, so heartbroken; and Safi doesn’t ask, only nods, and hugs, and spreads her warmth.
A warmth Max had forgotten about until the day they met. A warmth that Chloe had first brought into her life, before ripping it away again the day she left.Max wishes things would be different.
Set before & during canon.

Summary
Max had planned to spend her weekend wallowing after being broken up with by Amanda but her best friend, Safi, wasn't about to allow that pity party to take place.
What Safi hadn't planned for was quality time together revealing feelings that had been bubbling at the surface of her and Max's relationship.
Could two emotionally stunted individuals really make a relationship work? Things might get rocky but they were sure as hell going to try.

Summary
“No, I’m only joking, it would absolutely be a date, yeah. You’re just so fascinating, I want to pick your brain apart with like… an ice pick or something.”
“A lobotomy, you are describing a lobotomy,” Alicent murmurs.
Alicent is the Director of Communications for the Vice President. Rhaenyra serves as the White House Liaison to the President. Which means they see each other every day. Something that would not be a problem at all—if not for the fact that Alicent absolutely hates Rhaenyra's guts.

Summary
“So,” Rhaenyra sighs, her hand taking its place once more on Alicent’s thigh, her own leg sliding between Alicent’s. Her face is dangerously close to Alicent’s when she asks again, “What do you want?”
Despite running in the same social circles, Alicent Hightower can't stand Rhaenyra Targaryen. That is, until a chance encounter in a bathroom at a party featuring a moment of lost control, the two strike up an arrangement.
