    Summary

    She wanted to reach for Catra, now. She wanted to touch her; to hold her close, not as a result of life-altering circumstances, but just because. She wanted, and she wanted, and it was as true as the frantic beating of her heart in her throat.

    Summary

    Her first night on the ship, Adora watches Catra sleep. She charts the gentle tug up and down of her chest, stares at what once was impossible to want, forbidden from her reach. 

    She sits on the edge of Catra’s cot. Adora reaches out to trace the collar of her uniform, the white stained throughout with specks of blood and dirt.  She rakes a gentle hand through Catra’s hair, the cut rough and ragged. She goes to cradle Catra’s face like she had on Horde Prime’s ship, to run a thumb across the sharp line of her jaw—

    She stops. Maybe some things are still forbidden.

    Summary

    "I wish it didn't bother me. I mean, it's not like I ever knew them. And they kind of did some bad things…I just forget sometimes," Adora continued with a helpless shrug, her voice getting smaller with every word. "That I'm not from here."

    Or: 5 times Adora's alien biology was glaringly obvious (+1 time it didn't matter)

    (Or, or: I'm obsessed with the idea of Adora looking humanoid but is 100% not a human and definitely an alien from another planet, because why don't we talk about this more???)
