Summary
Thought I’d update the summary since this is obviously no longer a one shot.
Adora is your above average, soccer captain, sweetheart, heartthrob, but she has a secret that Catra begins figuring out when they meet at a costume party. Adora wants her, but not in just a normal, lusty, lesbian way. Pocket protectors, glasses and Bunsen Burners is what gets Adora hot, especially when it comes to Catra.
Catra has secrets too, her life mostly. In order to finish college she just has to keep mother dearest in dark about nearly every aspect of her life, including her degree. The biggest secret though, Catra is keeping it from themself.

Summary
Catra has been waiting to play Eye of Etheria, the reality competition show, since she was ten years old. Sure, most people wouldn't want to spend their entire summer locked in a house with 13 strangers while being filmed 24/7. However, the magicat has always believed she has what it takes to make it to the end and win the $500,000 prize. After years of trying to get cast, at 23 she has her chance to do just that. Looking to stop her though are 13 other houseguests, including one brilliant and beautiful woman, Adora. The two women begin their Eye of Etheria journey together as allies, but end up rising to the top of the two largest alliances in the house. Who will win? Adora's Rebellion or Catra's Horde? What will happen when these two realize they want more than the prize money? Find out all this and more on this season's... Eye of Etheria.
(This is a reality show AU based on the concept of the television show Big Brother)

Summary
Catra Diaz is the best helicopter pilot in her unit, but after a horrific accident, she abandons the military and takes a job as a life-flight pilot in Alaska. Five years later, her life has finally evened out - not quite happy, but content that at least she's not reliving the worst moment of her life every time she closes her eyes anymore. All it takes to shatter her fragile equilibrium is one voice - a voice she'd worked hard to forget, a voice she'd thought she was safe from.
It turns out that sometimes you can't outrun your guilt - but maybe you never needed to in the first place.
The Alaskan Search and Rescue Catradora AU that no one asked for, but I decided to write anyway.

Summary
“Okay. Then tell me what you do remember.”
Adora wraps her arms around herself, hugging her elbows, and winces. “I remember changing...It hurt. Worse than this,” she nods her chin towards the ripped carpet. “And I wanted it to stop...I just wanted it to stop. And I knew there was something that could do that. I didn’t know where it was but I knew it would help, so I went looking for it.”
Catra waits for her to continue, but she doesn’t.
“And?”
“And then I found you,” Adora says tightly. Her voice is deeper, calmer than before. She almost sounds a little angry. “And I felt better.”

When Catra receives a call from her sister Glimmer asking her to help catch a runaway werewolf during the full moon, she’s expecting it to be a one night deal. But when the next full moon rolls around and the wolf comes looking for her, she realizes she may have attracted a stray.

Summary
On the night of their high school graduation, Adora and Catra had a falling out that left them both alone and adrift.
Six years later and Adora is doing pretty well all things considered. She loves her job at the gym, has a great group of friends and while it isn't perfect she's proud of how far she's come. But everything changes when the ghost of her biggest "what if" walks right into her gym and is introduced as the new barre instructor and wants nothing to do with her.
And that's fine, really. Adora can manage that.
If only she could stop staring...

Summary

Catra just wants to see the city, maybe make a few cents and rejoin her friends to venture off to another part of the country.
Neither of them expected to stick up a man with fresh hands, make off with a bounty, go on a string of dizzying dates with their ill gotten gains, and fall impossibly in love.

Summary
The year is 2082. Temperatures reach record-breaking highs. More than 80% of the population fall below the poverty line. The world's leading corporations and CEOs continue to live comfortably.
Welcome to Styx City, populated by a mix of humans and bioengineered people developed by Nyx Industries. These new type of humans are known as the Keres. Despite protests and treaties for their freedom, the Keres still live under a closely surveyed rule, seen only as ‘just androids pretending to be real people’. Some Keres choose to accept the life they've been given. Others choose to break free and Disconnect, forming their own identities and becoming Offline Keres, or 'Ghosts'. This is an action punishable by death.
In this city of neon, two people--Catra, a bartender with many secrets, and Adora, an Angel who feels undeserving of her wings--try to survive with their own sets of problems and regrets. The city should've turned them cold, but instead, they find warmth with each other. Their forbidden bond is sometimes the only thing that can keep them going.
And if their bond somehow lasts, it might be what changes Styx City forever.
A Catradora Cyberpunk AU.

Summary
“what are you doing up so late, shera?”
Adora glances at the clock on the left side of her computer screen. It’s 3:05 in the morning here, which means 9 AM on her end. She can’t pinpoint exactly when this habit started, but the time conversion happens spontaneously in her brain now, without her even noticing that she’s doing it anymore.
Hands on the keyboard, she licks her lips like she's just been caught.
OR:
Online friendship turns to online crush which turns to... Who knows? :)
OR:
I just want to write some fluff :)

Summary
“It’s about compromise,” Glimmer supplies, “seeing how well two conflicting people work together under difficult circumstances for an extended period of time. Adora goes to the gym everyday, Catra’s only form of workout is walking from her dorm to her classes, Adora wakes no later than eight in the morning, Catra got mad at me for waking her up,” she lifts her hands for air quotes, “‘in the middle of the night’ at eight in the morning—”
“Adora obviously wants to be friends, but Catra keeps pushing it off,” Entrapta adds in, and based on the way both Glimmer and Bow grimace, that wasn’t supposed to be mentioned.
“So what,” Adora starts, “you just… handcuffed us together in our sleep?”
(or, in which Glimmer handcuffs Adora and Catra together for twenty-four hours, Entrapta is a little shit, and Bow is an innocent bystander in the entire mess.)

Summary
Whoever the hell Catra’s soulmate was, they seemed to get banged up a lot. She was always waking up with random marks. For the first few years, it was the normal dings that a kid gets. In her teens, the bruises got bigger, like they were into karate or football or some other kind of contact sport. Over the last couple of years though, Catra had started to receive marks in the middle of the night. At first, she thought her soulmate was a cop (which, gross cause ACAB). Maybe a burglar? She’d hoped maybe they were a certain firefighter she knew. Last night confirmed it though.
Catra, who never had anything normal happen to her, was matched with a godsdamn 8-foot tall glowing monster. How fitting.
All she ever wanted was to hide in the background and be medium-happy. That wasn’t a lot to ask! Now she knew she was bound – completely, cosmically, irrevocably – to something weird and supernatural.
Catra was, quite honestly, scared shitless.
5 times Catra's mysterious soulmate saves her life. And the 1 time she gets to return the favor.

Summary
The call comes in at 5:27 pm, which, first of all, fuck that. Who calls a store three minutes before closing? But Catra’s pretty sure if she’s caught sending a homicidal stare towards the telephone until it stops ringing one more time, her manager’s gonna want a word.
Or: Adora calls the local aquatic store for help with her new goldfish inherited from Razz, Catra's the one who answers the phone. Shenanigans ensue.

Summary
Adora pulled the flyer down and ran her shaking hands along its weathered edges, heart threatening to beat its way out of her chest and onto the sidewalk unhindered.
It was unmistakable. Undeniable.
It was her, and she was…
She was a lighting strike.
She was an atomic bomb.
She was the fucking Tunguska event.
She was Catra.
***
Ten years ago, the universe took them away from each other. Adora spent what she could of that time searching. Catra spent that time grieving.
When chance brings Adora an old, faded band flyer, it seems as if the universe is finally on her side, again.
But the universe never lets anything go quite the way you want it to, does it?
It's the Punk Rock AU, y'all!

Summary
The words sting to hear, even if they’re true. They haven’t talked about their foster mom since her services, the wounds they gave each other that week still too painful to do anything more than help each other bandage. Adora pulls their hand from Catra’s grasp, fingers wrapping around their own forearm instead. They let the pad of their thumb trace the six month old scars, feeling the rise and fall of the teeth-shaped carvings. They only recently faded enough for them to feel comfortable wearing short sleeves.
“Yeah, you’re right. I’m going to get dressed.”
“Okay, I love you.”
The habitual response to that call dies on Adora’s tongue. They can’t look at Catra right now, can’t even be around her. The ghosts of arguments echo in their mind, filling the silence as Adora marches back to their bedroom and away from the memories of the day Sharon Weaver died.
---
In the winter of Catra and Adora's final year at Brightmoon University, they get a call they wished for as little kids and dreaded as adults: their foster mother, Sharon Weaver, is dead, and it's up to them to pick up the pieces.
