    Summary

    Luz knew that she wasn’t supposed to play in the graveyard. Mami told her no. Papi told her no. And yet, she still did it.

    An adventure to the Gravesfield Graveyard at five years old reveals something that not even the overly imaginative Luz could have foreseen. This discovery not only changes Luz in a way she can never return from, but it also rips her from her home and her family.

    Now in an unfamiliar land, Luz is sent to the local orphanage. There, she meets her very first and very best friend, Amity. They support each other in a world where they have no one. Their bond is not just built on love and trust, but magic as well. Nothing will tear them apart.

    Until a promise is broken.

    Separated, Luz finds a new family with Eda Clawthorne. She grows and learns magic like she had always dreamed. But Luz is missing a big piece of herself. And she wants it back.

    It seems too good to be true when Luz and Amity meet again. But broken trust and broken hearts are not healed so easily. Especially when dark forces are at work that are waiting for the opportunity to swallow them whole.

    Summary

    Everything seemed fine after Adora released the magic of the Heart out in the world and vanquished Prime out of existence. For a few glorious minutes, Catra thought this might be it. No more evils out there, no more war, not a reason out there for them to be apart from each other.

    Then Adora passed out for three days, and woke up with no recollection of anything that happened after she broke She-Ra's sword.

    Catra never gets to win. Right?

    (Adora loses her memory. Catra believes she hates her again - despite everyone telling that, no, she doesn't. Even Adora herself. Repeatedly.)

    Summary

    The instructions were simple: The TA would randomly pair them up with a classmate with whom they had to write journal-like emails to. No real names were allowed, everything must be kept anonymous and vague. They had the option to be themselves, or to create a fictional persona. The choice was theirs.

    Summary

    Growing up was supposed to get easier. Relationships and friendships were supposed to get easier.

    No where in this equation was the Addams' family curse supposed to latch onto her and throw her life into chaos. No where was it written that this curse would not just bind her to one, but four.

    She was in for a long last year at Nevermore with navigating relationships and friendships that demanded much from her and brought out aspects of herself she did not want to face.

    She tried to run from being like her mother to only find herself falling under the shadow of her father in her own way.
