- A Portrait of Hope
- Sarah is an art student, and her roommate, Tally, is a chemical engineering major. They couldn't be more different. College was rough enough to begin with, Sarah knew, but dealing with Tally's peppy demeanor and incessant talking was another thing entirely. Still, something drew them together, inspiring a degree of trust and vulnerability that neither had experienced before. Maybe they could be friends after all. If Tally didn't make Sarah pull her hair out first, that is. {5/14/23}
- A witches place.
- A security breach isn't what you think. {5/31/23}

- Sarah Alder is born to a full moon, to a forest alight with life around her. There's fire in her eyes as she takes in the electricity arcing against her skin, her nails are too-sharp and her mouth hangs open like a starving wolf, like a predator. Without the Biddies and the Accords to temper her flames, she is ethereal and wild. {6/9/23}
- But I’m your idiot?
- They’d just left the restaurant and decided they needed a walk before returning to the car. Tally had taken hold of Sarah’s arm, glad that Sarah didn’t seem to mind her tactile nature. “That ice cream was amazing.” Tally sighed. {5/16/23}
- Closure
- Ever since Sarah returned to the Mycelium, Tally is missing her like crazy and as a result is unable to stop thinking about her.

- Hold Me Through It
- Most people believe that General Alder is heartless. That she is only cold and calculating--ruthless to a fault--that she doesn't feel pain, sorrow, or loss anymore after her many centuries.

- On these holiest of days, my heart beats for you, breaks for you
- It seemed deeply unfair that Petra got to have the good times, while all Alder had was…nothing. Nothing, because unlike Petra, or Abs, or Raelle and Scylla or even fucking Nicte (she didn’t hate Nicte either, she had to remind herself, it was once again just the vast injustice of it all) Alder was dead. Gone.

- Shaking me Right to the Core
- “I know I’ve taken everything from you, I know it’s selfish of me to sit here and ask you for more, to ask you not to take something from me.” Tally’s finger presses more firmly onto her mouth to keep her from arguing when she tries. “But if you’re willing to give it then please let me have it” She pleads, unashamed. “Don’t go without letting me love you” {5/14/23}

As soon as they’re in the bedroom and the uniform comes off, Sarah hands over all her power to Tally who can then do whatever she pleases to her. All Sarah can do in these moments is obey and Tally wouldn’t want it any other way. {5/14/23}
