Summary
The radio was taunting her. First, she was stuck home with her brother and parents on New Year’s Eve, when she could be at Scorpia’s house with all of her friends. And Catra. Instead, because of an argument that got a little out of hand (and totally wasn’t Adora’s fault), she and Adam were stuck at home. Without Catra. And the radio was taunting her.
It started with ‘Maneater’. Sure, it would be pretty tame if Adam hadn’t looked Adora directly in the eye, wiggled his eyebrows and said, “Are you a man eater?”
Adora just spluttered and took another gulp of her drink. What was she supposed to say to that?

Summary
Adora felt particularly lucky. After all, she had everything she could want. She had a job she loved, and she was in pretty good shape for someone in her late thirties. On top of all that, she was the mother of two wonderful teenagers. Some days were challenging as a single mother, of course, but she had nothing to complain about.
However, her life was turned upside down when someone called, claiming to be the biological mother of her adopted children. The awful woman who had abandoned them at birth.
Among the hundreds of nightmarish scenarios running through Adora's mind at that moment, she would certainly never have expected to fall in love with this woman.

Summary
"Why did you like it?" Adora's eyes look paler than usual. "The raid."
Because the captain can't follow through on her threats to put Catra through the airlock if she's useful. Because she's trained to do this for years, even when only Adora thought she could, and now she can prove everyone else wrong. Because when she's standing over someone foolish enough to get within her reach, the blood on her hands isn't her own.
"Because it was fun," Catra whispers back. "Why didn't you?"

Summary
Adora Burbank lives what many would consider a fairly average life - a stable desk job, a supportive boyfriend, a house in the Bright Moon suburbs. What she doesn’t realize is that there’s nothing remotely “average” about her at all. That’s because her entire life takes place on a massive soundstage, with hired actors playing her loved ones and cameras broadcasting every moment of her day. Now approaching her twenty-fifth birthday, Adora has never left her fabricated island home - and if auteur director Sharon Weaver has anything to say about it, she never will.
Enter Catra, a part-time actor and full-time burnout who can barely afford the rent on her shitty LA apartment. When a lucky break lands her a background role on one of the biggest reality shows in history, she has zero intention whatsoever of rocking the boat. Her job is to get in, blend into the background, and collect her paycheck - the minutiae of Adora Burbank’s life are none of her concern.
Catra's always been good at getting herself into trouble, though. Especially when it runs straight into her.
