Summary: "Reciprocating motion is a repetitive up and down or back and forth--Astrid, are you listening?" "Huh? Oh, yeah, sure." A series of back and forth moments between Astrid and Hiccup. Contains major spoilers for HTTYD2.
Astrid liked braiding Hiccup's hair. She liked messing with him generally, and had started out with pinching and prodding, so by that measure the braiding was an improvement, though not one Hiccup was wild about. Braid snagged more easily in his helmet than loose hair. Once he complained about that Astrid mostly confined them to the area near his neck where the helmet didn't quite reach. But still. He ended most every

Adventure Time: Let You Lead
Summary: Marceline is really, really bad at the relationship thing. So Bubblegum decides to step up.
One night, in the castle garden, Princess Bubblegum grabs Marceline and kisses her. Marceline reacts by not reacting at all, and after a few minutes Bubblegum sighs and says, "I'll see you later, Marceline," as she walks off. Marceline eventually stops floating insensibly long enough to get back to her cave, find a large rock, and smash her head into it hard enough that she's left with three smallish rocks, and a headache that takes two days to fade.
Glob, why is she so bad at this?

Adventure Time: Scent Memory
Summary: Princess Bubblegum said she wore the rock shirt all the time. She never said she wore it every night. Takes place after the events of "What Was Missing?", Princess Bubblegum/Marceline.
When she first heard the tapping at her window, Princess Bubblegum didn't move from her desk, choosing instead to study the sound. It was rather late, although that could mean little depending on what emergency may or may not be occurring. Everything else sounded quiet, however. And the window was quite high, anyway. Not easy for many people to get to, although Finn could reach it, with Jake's help. Not to mention the Ice King. Ugh.
She didn't have t
Scott Pilgrim Comicverse, Roxie/Ramona
Summary: Roxie could never really hate Ramona.
What Roxie liked about art - what drew her to it in the first place - was the fact that art was open to interpretation. Everything had a meaning, but sometimes that meaning was hidden. Guarded. Sometimes what you saw wasn't actually what was shown at all, and that was exactly as it should be.
Which is why it was a perfect profession for a ninja, haters be damned.
She didn't hear Ramona come in, exactly, but she knew she was there all the same. Roxie was a ninja. You can't just sneak up on a freaking ninja. So she set down her paints and wiped her hands

Lilo and Stitch: Normality
Summary: Myrtle may not be sure what normal is anymore, but she's pretty sure Lilo still doesn't qualify.
When Myrtle is young, she's good at making friends, and keeping them. She's queen of her own little clique. She's forceful and confident and sometimes mean, yeah, but only to people she and the others had decided deserved it.
But she and her friends keep getting older, keep moving up in school, keep meeting new people. One day the girl known for making fun of people who are different realizes she's different. Most of her classmates are native; they have a shared heritage, culture, language. All Myrtle has is an absent father and a mothe
Scott Pilgrim Comicverse, Kim/Julie
Summary: Julie doesn't understand why Stephen broke up with her. Kim doesn't understand why Julie's complaining to her about it.
"He left me!" Julie screeched.
"You say that like it didn't happen every other week for, I don't know, five years?" Kim pointed out as Julie downed (yet another) glass of vodka. "You'd think you'd be used to it."
"This is different and you know it!" Julie cried, slamming the glass on the bar. "I need another round."
"Here too, please?" Kim said, rubbing her face with her hands. The bartender set them up again, giving Kim a sympathetic smile as she did.
Julie grabbed her
Scott Pilgrim Comicverse, Kim/Scott
Summary: What does Scott remember about Kim?
"Why don't you -- like, tell me about you and Kim, or something?" Ramona said, flopping across the bed.
"Kim?" Scott asked. "What about her?"
"You dated her."
"Oh...yeah...right..."
"Is your memory of that time period hazy, too? C'mon, inform me."
"Okay...there was this girl in my...history class...I think...and it was Kim. We had to do a thing together. She had freckles?"
"And?"

She had freckles, dusting her shoulders and the top of her chest and her thighs. And it was...he had see
