Summary
“Now, I have to tell you… she wore out one painter before you.”
Vi’s brow furrows. “How so?” She can’t keep the question at bay.
Cassandra looks down at her tea. “To put it simply, she refused to pose. He never saw her face.”
Vi sits up a little straighter, concern tightening her muscles.
“Why won’t she be painted, exactly?” The image of the smudged face barrages her, filling her vision with blue and gold.
“She refuses this marriage,” she replies sternly, lines etched along her brow. Cassandra glances up to her own wedding portrait before meeting Vi’s gaze again. “You must paint her without her knowing.”
OR:
When Caitlyn Kiramman refuses to be painted for her arranged wedding portrait, Vi is commissioned to paint her in secret at Holdrum estate (The Portrait of a Lady on Fire au)

Summary
Years ago Harrow pushed Gideon too far and she finally made good on her threat and escaped, joining the Cohort and sending back letters of her successful endeavours. So what could have her fleeing back to the Ninth? And how is it possible she's even sadder than before.
Harrow meanwhile has been hanging on by a thread, while she waits for the inevitable collapse of her house, but she is not relieved that Gideon is back. She's not.
Somehow the years apart have made them even worse.

Summary
Clarke can’t meet Lexa’s eyes when she presses the dagger to her throat.
She’s not the one Clarke wants to hurt and she knows it, deep down, beneath the bits of her that are ripped to shreds, that will never be stitched back together.
Clarke comes to Polis to kill Lexa and stays because it's the path of least resistance, or at least that’s what she tells herself. This fic starts at the knife scene in the season 3 trailer and then takes on a life of its own from there. (Happy ending included.)
