Summary
Over the years, Andy has come to accept that Miranda Priestly is both the best and the worst thing that ever happened to her.
It seems fitting that she would hold both superlatives. It’s the only way to explain why Andy keeps leaving her.
Business woman, artist, celebrity, mother, millionaire, tyrant - Miranda is a woman of many contradictions. Defined as much by the beauty she creates as the terror she inspires. To deny either is to refuse to understand her as the real, complex, fully fledged human being that she is. It’s the only way to explain why Andy keeps leaving her.
And the only way to explain why she keeps coming back.

Summary
By that point, Miriam’s career was gaining traction. But she wanted not only to survive off it, but to excel, to move up, to reign supreme. Miriam was talented, but hungry. She was strong, but so very tired of fighting. So she made a decision. Exchanged one name for another, one freedom for another, one life for another. Now, decades later, Nigel chews her ear off about responsibility and cultural change and the right time to come out of the closet. Telling her to give the girl a shot. But Miranda is 54 and has a magazine to run and two lovely daughters to take care of and she is all out of shots.
An exploration of Miranda Priestly’s past, her life’s passions and limitations and how Andrea Sachs might be the key to finally having it all.
A companion piece (of sorts) to A Little Comfort.Series

Andrea Sachs is nothing like you.
At least that’s what she tells you the first and last time you kiss.

Summary
I look at her sitting there in nothing but a simple grey robe and glasses. No couture, no shoes, no make-up. „You’re very fetching, so go fetch.“, I hear her say. Her eyes jump around the room, finally landing on me and there is something in them I’ve never seen before. A hesitant insecurity mixed with a kind of searching curiosity, as if she’s seeing me for the very first time. „Miranda?“ This is madness. "Miranda?!" I’m going through with it.
Upon rewatching the bathrobe-scene™, I noticed for the first time how low-cut Andy's outfit is. From there I decided to just roll with it. Somehow, it got more intense than anticipated.

Summary
By now, Selina has regained enough of her composure to go back to being a bitch. „I’m impressed, Amy.“, she tells her. But she sounds mean, not awed. „Who would have thought? I mean, the lesbian thing I kind of saw coming. But this? I didn’t think you had it in you.“ Amy presses their lips together, before Selina can say something she’ll regret. Or something Amy won’t be able to forgive. „Shut up!“, she growls between kisses. „Just for once, shut the fuck up!“
Set after season seven. A couple of months into her presidency, Amy visits Selina in the Oval Office. It's late, they have things to sort out and Amy is fresh out of fucks.
In which they both release some tension, get screwed in more ways than one and Amy finally grows up.

Summary
Deborah lets out a huff of an exhale and sinks down onto the cushion Ava’s feet have only just vacated. “A cruise.” Her lips curl around the words, a sneer playing about the corner of them.
“Um…why?”
Deborah’s fingers rake through her hair, and Ava can’t help thinking how much she’d like to be the one doing that instead—which is, you know, wholly inappropriate because Deb’s her boss, and also one forwarded email away from kicking Ava out on her ass. “It’s a long story.”
Or, the post-season 1 Hacks fic where Deborah gets stuck as the on-board entertainer on a three-week cruise only to find out about the email while out at sea
