Summary
They sat like that for a few soothed and sated minutes, not smoking, not drinking, not talking. Just resting thigh to thigh and palm to palm in the falling summer dusk. The full contentedness in Lupe made it seem, even under the cacophony of cicadas and the muted sounds of teammates inside the house, that they were held in their own moment, quiet and still.

or - Lupe and Jess take advantage of the infrequent quiet moments as they figure out how to express their feelings for each other

Fics for the Twitter SMAU: Love on the Rocks

Summary
Carson had always loved Greta. From the first moment they’d met, Carson knew this was the woman she wanted to spend her life with. It was Carson’s belief that their love could survive anything, in any time, across any universe. She’d bet her life on it. Until the 2007 Writers’ Strike.
Fast forward to the 2023 strike and their world is different and yet weirdly familiar. Carson lives nearby to Greta, to help make co-parenting run smoothly. Greta has joined the Writer’s Guild and has a bit more understanding of the stance Carson took during the 2007 strike. Their little girl is now a 17-year-old young woman and soon to head off to college.
With the present seeming to mirror the past, Carson and Greta start to wonder if this strike they can fix the issues that broke them apart during the last one, regaining that old feeling.

Summary
Finding your voice can be hard, especially when the rules on relationships have suddenly changed.
-Four times Carson opens up to show her love language and one time Lupe does.*
Never say, “I’m going to write a one-shot.” What was a 4+1 one-shot turned into a 4+1 in chapters.

Summary
Beverly hesitates, like she’s questioning whether to let out the thought that’s still lingering behind her pursed lips. “That is, unless you choose to believe in the legends,” she finally adds.
The hairs on the back of Carson’s neck rise at Beverly’s ominous words. “What legends?”
“It is the belief of many who live here that Rockford Bay is inhabited by merfolk,” she half-whispers, her voice slow and deliberate as if she’s divulging a dark secret.
In search of a new life, Carson moves into a houseboat off the coast of Rockford Bay. Little does she know, her world is about to change on a massive scale.

Summary
I had a dream of this story's ending... I told my wife about it and convinced me to make it into a full short story.
It's not a happy ending for our favorite ALOTO ship, Gretson... but sometimes we need stories like this to remind us that it's not always sunshine and rainbows.
I hope you still enjoy the story. -

Summary
What happens when Carson's trusty Starbuck's is closed for maintenance and she has to find somewhere else to get her caffeine fix? What happens when the only other option is the "hipster" haunt, Elixir that just so happens to be along her commute. And what happens when a stunning auburn-haired goddess-type also happens to be her barista? Can Carson contain her nerves and gay-panic? Ha. I think we all know the answer to that.
Oh, and it happens to be the week of Valentines!!!
Double oh, this is ALSO the meet-cute of "I dial drunk, I'd die a drunk, I'd die for you" Gretson...heh heh heh

Greta Gill vs modern dating.
-
Tags
Summary
Greta Gill was always so worried about what could happen to her. She lived a good life. So much so that her worries had manifested into a good career as a project manager and quality control consultant for organizations and corporations. She could anticipate everything that might go wrong and help them mitigate all of those issues.
It brought her a great deal of wealth and acclaim.
But it also left her feeling like she was missing out on life. For some reason, always worrying about what was around the next corner didn’t leave much room for actually living.
This brought Greta to the conclusion that it was time to put together a list.
(Or an AU in which Greta decides to take up skydiving to get the thrill of living despite her fears.)

Summary
The peaches are back for a second season and hoping to win that first place championship title, but will everyone return to the peaches or even the league, After traveling the country and a few problems at home has Carson Shaw came back more confident than every or went back into her shell, Greta finally settled in the city of New York thriving in her work place having new friends and social groups how things have changed for the both of them.
Expect new and old characters with a story that continues the story line we know and love from the TV series. I have also tired to keep with the true story of the league and facts of 1944 to keep with the style of the original writing.

Summary
Young Jess helps out the harvest crew and talks like them, too.
....................................."The hard work makes Jess’ muscles ache, but she’s proud to have some small place among the threshing crew, and eagerly soaks in everything about them. How they manage horse and wagon as skillfully as the huge machine and its roaring firebox. How they move - the swagger of propping one foot on a fence rail, leaning easily on the elbows as a pipe juts out. And, unluckily, how they talk."
