A Plan For Sophie's Three Months Of Father-Ordained Hell In Netherwood: a) upstage everyone in a grand entrance (roses?? pearls?? maybe bring doves) b) avoid the queen (still can't remember her name) for said three months, allow her to admire from afar (and afar ONLY) c) find REAL friend, courtier of unknown rank named aggie (short for something???) d) scope out elegible courtiers (doubt there'll be any...) e) go home, having learned nothing (that will teach the old fools) (nicola/sophie bodyguard au, with side queen and knight tagatha.

Genesis has grown up with a neglective, abusive father all throughout her sixteen years of life. Despite all the pain and trauma she goes through, she's still standing. Fighting back against her pathetic excuse of a father, not letting him see her weak and scared. The way she copes with all the pain isn't the healthiest but she stopped caring a long time ago. But when her father dies unexpectedly, she feels like all her prayers have been answered. Until she finds out she has brothers, five of them and she's forced to move in with them. Her very cold, secretive distant brothers. They have dark secrets but so does Genesis.

The only thing Mia Hope has in common with Jake Carpenter, Artwood High's most popular quarterback, is a love for the coffee served at The Coffee Pod. He wants her to tutor him - and if she can do it without a single cup of coffee, he'll pay her triple. Easy. Nothing could go wrong, right? ***** When Jake learns he's failing English, he knows he needs to pull his grades up or he'll risk being kicked off the football team. He strikes a deal with the elusive Mia - the quiet girl with secrets. If she can't go without a single cup of coffee, she has to tutor him for free. If she can, he'll pay her triple, and with Christmas around the corner, there's nothing Mia needs more than money. But as the pair grow closer, Jake learns the real reason for Mia's bad habit, and what starts as an innocent bet between enemies grows into something more serious. Can the pair survive the next two months with their hearts - and secrets - still intact? Content/trigger warning: This story contains themes of assault and abuse. [[word count: 60,000 - 70,000]] Cover designed by Jenna Conrad The Coffee Pact now has a sequel: The Kissing Pact

It doesn't really make sense that the world's biggest pop star would be best friends with the music critic who routinely drags his Metacritic score down, but sometimes these things happen. In all honesty, it's pretty amusing... but lately, neither Tedros nor Agatha have been find it the least bit funny. See, Tedros may have blown it. Somehow. (Agatha knows how.) So there's that. And a million other things besides. ...they're kind of doomed, actually.

(do you quarrel, sir? / quarrel, sir? no, sir. / but if you do, sir, I am for you. / I serve as good a man as you. / no better / well, sir / say better, here comes one of my master's kinsmen / yes, better, sir / you lie.) -- two dance schools, both alike in dignity. Sophie really, REALLY wants to be chosen as legendary dancer August Sader's protégé. The only person in her way is Nicola.

Agatha does not do 'standard' very well. Not that he'd wish her to. But... well, she's certainly not Snow White. Agatha doesn't talk to rabbits or deer. They don't like her very much, either; they think she's tall and stomps and smells funny, according to Beatrix, who actually paid attention in Uma's lessons. And she doesn't sing to birds. She'd probably scare them off; her voice is terrible. But she excitedly plucks frogs and toads from ponds and points out all the grisly anatomical bits and holds them up, saying 'don't their eyes look like mine?' and when Tedros says not really, pointing out that she's a woman and that's a frog, she ignores him. --- between her education at good, and the long line of princesses and queens that came before her, it stands to reason that agatha should now be able to use all the tools available to her to cement herself as the ideal queen of camelot. tedros thinks that anyone who had expected such a thing really doesn't know agatha very well. -- (this doesn't really count as part of my filling in canon series so I'm posting it separately. it's still just a oneshot though)

"--I am sending this letter out of concern for Tedros, my son. Over these past nearly seven years, I have found myself somewhat unnerved, on occasion, by his behaviour. In most aspects of life, he is a good-humoured child that most people find charming, but there have been moments where I have found his reactions... disturbing. He randomly flies into passions, becomes possessive of objects, is an aggressive fighter, and lacks temperance. I would dismiss these as merely the peculiarities of a child, but something about them causes me disquiet. When compared to Jacinda's daughter Bettina, and many other Ever leader's children, he sticks out as an outlier, far less measured and more prone to lash out. For my own peace of mind, I researched this, and what I found startled me immensely-- stories of Never children born of Ever parents." --- tedros is a never, and his father didn't even have the decency to tell him. (never! tedros AU, set after Quests for Glory. Not canon-compliant)
