The time of war had ended. Peace flourished as the remnants of the RDA fled the Western Frontier, only leaving behind scraps of metal as proof they'd ever been there. For a time, Pandora began to heal. She reclaimed what the sky-people had ruined, stitching the wounds of time closed with root and vine. Life moved forward. The Resistance turned its focus to the living world Ewya breathed. Alma settled into her human body again. Ri'nela learned what it meant to carry the weight of a tsahìk's voice. Teylan shaped metal and wires into something meant to protect, rather than destroy. Yet, Tamtey did not find peace. Sleep brought the memories of TAP that haunted her, driving her from her bed night after night. Only the soft wind beneath unfamiliar stars offered any peace. She was rarely alone for long. So'lek always found her there, sharing quiet hours until the dawn chased away the dark, trading dreams and the horrors that kept them awake. Still, the forest shook with unease. Ewya's song wavered, strained by something distant -- quickly approaching. Smoke stained the horizon. Thin and gray, whispering against the clouds. A single flake of ash drifted down, landing on top of Tamtey's bouncing knee. So'lek reached out and swiped it away, pinching it until it vanished. "Ash..." he murmured, gaze fixed on the rising plumes beyond the trees. "And fire," Tamtey replied, her voice unwavering. The forest fell silent around them. Even the animals did not cry out. A new enemy was coming.

When Regina George gets stuck sharing a locker row with Rodrick Heffley the school's loudest rule-breaker and lead drummer of Löded Dïpper her perfect world takes a turn for the chaotic. He's trouble wrapped in a smirk and guitar strings. She's power disguised as lip gloss and high heels. They clash over parking spots, playlists, and pride... but the more they fight, the louder their hearts drum. Everything between them feels like static until one afternoon, the hallway goes quiet too quiet. Regina's back hits the locker door, her breath catching as Rodrick leans in, a grin tugging at his mouth. "You always talk this much," he murmurs, voice rough with laughter, "or am I just special?" She tilts her head, eyes bright. "You're not special. You're just in my way." "Then move me." "Maybe I will." "Maybe I want you to."

Seven minutes. That's all it was supposed to be. But seven stupid minutes turned into a dirty secret. And a dirty secret became a pattern. A pattern that tasted like cheap beer and cigarettes and a kind of heat she couldn't shake off no matter how hard she tried. ⟡ ⟡ ⟡ Regina George, Rodrick Heffley Mean Girls / Diary of a Wimpy Kid AU
