    Summary

    In which Bond is a retired naval commander with too much house, Q is a mechanical engineer with too many sisters, and they have lengthy conversations about decorum, bonnet-ribbons and philosophy in Regency England.

    ~

    “I just thought you might go pay a visit," his mother suggested.

    “Me?” Q asked, aghast. “Pay a visit?”

    “He must be starved for proper gentleman company, now that he’s settled in so far from London--”

    “I am far from proper gentleman company.”

    “--and perhaps if you befriended him he could introduce you to some nice heiresses.”

    “Heiresses?” Q repeated, baffled and horrified. “What in the world would I do with heiresses?”

    Summary

    Ruby Lucas' life hasn't turned out like she planned it. Still working at her Granny's diner, still in Storybrooke, dating the boy next door, it feels like high school never ended, except for one thing. Her best friend, the one person she never imagined living her life without, is gone. And she knows it's her fault.

    Ruby is desperate for a change, and when her boyfriend proposes, she accepts, willing to risk anything for something new in her life. But when Mary-Margaret pays for a bachelorette weekend in Vegas, the series of unexpected events that follow, starting with a chance meeting and culminating in a disastrous high school reunion, results in secrets revealed, lies told, desperate acts committed, and love found and betrayed.

    Summary

    Written for Canon Divergence AU and Soulmate AU for Swan Queen Week.

    “I think I thought I might find someone to…” Emma swallows and Regina is silent, listening more carefully than she should be to someone who shouldn’t matter. “Anyway, this whole soulmate business is a crock. I’m not going to wind up with some asshole just because of a tattoo.”

    [the one where Henry is kidnapped as a baby and Regina and Emma have other names on their ankles]

    Summary

    "Why does she so desperately need this to be true?

    How disappointed will she be if it's not?

    Regina takes a deep breath and sets down her cider. Then she opens Google Chrome and types:

    Marisol Mendez series Gin and Sal bi or lesbians

    The first link that pops up is for a story called "Cocoa for Three," written by someone called charmingduckling83: (AU, no curse) Gin works at a coffee shop where Marisol and Sal are regular customers. She and the kid become fast friends, but the mom's a much harder read. It doesn't help that Gin is a disaster at pick-up lines. This is basically just fluff without much of a plot, but it's my first fanfic, so be nice? VIVA LA VIRGIN SAVIOR!

    Intrigued, she clicks it."

     ***

    SQW Day 7: Forbidden Love AU in which Emma and Regina are Marisol Mendez fans and diehard Gin/Sal shippers who have vastly different ideas about what constitutes good fanfic (or do they?). Please read the copious author's notes first.
