Taylor Swift just got out of a seven year relationship - it was time to go, she knew it in her bones, but still... her pillows were stained with tears. She'd never imagined herself sleeping alone again, living alone, eating alone or crying alone ever again. Life works in funny ways, and it can take you to places that you never expect. She's surprised when a visit to the hospital to visit a friend leads her down a road she thought wasn't meant for her. A child. An eight-year-old little girl with bruises on her wrists and scratches on her cheeks. An eight-year-old little girl named Eloise, who's never known a warm touch or soup when she's sick, or soft toys. Taylor, in learning how to make herself shimmer after only shining with someone else for seven years, has the privilege to help a little girl sparkle for the first time. A little girl who loves her for who she is, not her relationship status, or the things she keeps hidden away. A little girl who loves her even further than saturn.

Ekko, a brilliant yet weary single father, is devoted to helping his six-year-old daughter, Isha, heal from the trauma of her abusive mother. Isha, now selectively mute, starts first grade and forms a surprising bond with her teacher, Powder-a spirited and unconventional educator with a deep passion for helping children feel seen and succeed in her classroom. Powder quickly notices Isha's struggles to adjust in the classroom and invites Ekko to a parent-teacher conference to discuss ways to support her. Though their connection is immediate, both are determined to keep things professional for Isha's sake. As Powder dedicates herself to helping Isha rebuild her confidence, Ekko grows increasingly drawn to her compassion and warmth. Meanwhile, Powder finds herself captivated by Ekko's quiet resilience and his unwavering devotion to his daughter. Despite their attempts to maintain boundaries, Ekko and Powder can't deny their growing feelings for each other. As Isha begins to reclaim her voice and take steps toward healing, the two must decide whether to keep their relationship hidden or take the risk of revealing it-knowing the delicate balance it could upset in Isha's world and the potential consequences for Powder's career. - This fic is a SLOW BURN!

Idk if you've heard but Noelle Stevenson wrote a fanfic and this is (probably) it. Summary: They stay that way for a long time, Catra's face tucked into Adora's shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra's head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away - but Catra doesn't. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora's jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn't know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness. But Catra doesn't let go. And so neither does Adora.

This should have been the best moment of Crowley's fucked up millennia lasting life. This should have been a moment of revelation, the moment he'd been waiting for, the moment his dreams finally came true. We just tend to forget that nightmares are dreams, too. ~oOo~oOo~ Summaries are hard without giving away too much plot. Just prepare for lots of emotions after the Not-Pocalypse, a shocking discovery they have to learn how to cope with, an angry and frustrated Crowley, a hurt and frustrated Aziraphale, lots of misunderstandings and clearing conversation, a letter, a talk with God Herself and just lots of fluff, angst, love with a happy ending! And of course - some smut ;)
