    Summary

    Kara can see a rocky outcropping housing a large cave, a bubbling stream, and a woman sitting with her feet in the water. Her mouth is moving in a perfect match to the uneven song. Her back is facing Kara, and Kara can hardly see any of her features on account of there being two large wings in the way.

    Well. The wings are…unexpected.

    Strangely though, the fact that this woman has wings is not the thing that pulls at Kara’s attention the most. This close, Kara can better hear the intricacies in her mournful, tuneless melody. The warm, colourful pockets of imperfection in her voice. Kara wants to nestle into them and just listen, on and on until the end of time.

    "Beautiful," Kara whispers, the words leaving her without a thought.

    The song ends in a discordant screech.

    Summary

    For approximately one second, Root had a very clear view of the carpet rushing toward her face. And then she didn't, because something stopped her.

    Her face ended up against something solid and warm, and when she finally got her bearings enough to lift her head, she found herself looking up at a face she'd never seen before.

    A very good face, as it happened.

    or

    Root is an Actor, and when she trips on her own dress at the Golden Globes and nearly breaks her face in front of essentially every Papperazzi in LA, Sameen Shaw, a Security Guard from a private firm that was hired to work the event, catches her. Let's just say the Sapphic internet goes a little insane.

    Summary

    It's almost lonely, this new calm in Imogen's head. Usually at the market she'd be treated to Laudna's light, musical inner dialogue about the ripeness of fruits or the bread Zhudanna might like best, but instead it's just quiet. All Imogen gets is what Laudna shows on her face, and the words she says out loud. Words like you don't have to listen in to get my thoughts. I'll always share them willingly. You can just ask.

    There's only one thing Imogen wants to ask right now. It's blaring in Imogen's mind like a temple bell, so loudly that even with the circlet she's sure Laudna must be able to hear it. And Laudna is looking at her so sweetly. Every moment they've been parted has made this all-consuming feeling worse, harder to pack away, and this could be her last chance to say it. Her only chance.

    She has to say it. She has to ask.

    "Can I kiss you?"

    My take on The Kiss, and what comes after.
