I agreed to spar with some of them. I shared food with some. And I went horseback riding with another girl.

[So there!]

Nobody but you has even seen She-Ra.

[ Dryly: ]

And I'm sure you saved everyone's day.

I haven't needed to?

Honestly, this is...kind of a boring place. There's nothing to do but relax. Heck, my job's even easy. I think I'm going to go crazy.

[ Catra is... surprised and secretly kind of relieved that she's not the only one that feels this way.

Of course, she won't say that out loud. Instead, she'll shoot Adora a smirk. ]

Well, if you need some help with that...

[Adora...actually kind of blushes at that. She hasn't really needed to fight, or felt like she needs to fight Catra since she arrived beyond some brief clashes, so there's other thoughts floating through her head.]

N-No...not really?

[ What a strange reaction! Catra tilts her head. ]

Wait, what did you think I was talking about?

I don't know? I just figured you were thinking of something...nefarious.

[Good save, Adora. Except she's not really all that convincing.]

And I'd rather not wind up getting you on the cover of more magazines.

[ Catra gapes, her mouth opening and closing a few times, then she crosses her arms. ]

As if that was only your doing!

Well, no. But I didn't help, and I know you don't like it.

[It is totally fine if Adora has stalkers, but Catra doesn't deserve that.]

[ Oh, Adora, always so noble and protective.

Which is, of course, exactly what Catra hates. She throws her arms out in frustration. ]

Will you stop trying to protect me already?

It's not about protecting you, it's about stopping something you don't like! Or would you rather be on the cover of every magazine?

[She rolls her eyes and mutters:]

Pretty sure I could make sure that happened.

[ Catra's ear twitches. She caught that. ]

Oh yeah? You'd go out of your way to put us in the magazines? How would you even do that?

[ Her voice and eyes are full of challenge! ]

[Adora straightens up and steps closer, eyes flaring just like her cheeks. Fine.]

I could kiss you. They'd eat that right up.

[Wouldn't they? Of course, she'd never have said that if she wasn't a little angry. Probably.]

[ Catra goes very still for a moment. Excuse you, her brain is kinda short-circuiting. ]

[ Kiss her. ]

[ KISS. HER!!! HOW VERY DARE! ]

[ And if there's a blush rising in Catra's cheeks, she will ignore that, because -- it's nothing.

It's not like she has an inkling where Adora's coming from, nope siree. ]

Did you hit your head somewhere?

No.

[Adora folds her arms across her chest and advances another step.]

I saw the magazine. They think we're a couple. Or were.

[Really, that had been a bit of a shock, but she'd kept it to herself.]

They'd lap that right up, and you know it.

[ Catra just. Stares. ]

You wouldn't.

Try me, Catra.

[She steps closer. Do you underestimate her power?]

[ Catra leans in, searching Adora's gaze. ]

Really? You'd do it just to get a rise out of me? Isn't that usually my thing?

[Adora leans closer, stopping maybe six centimeters away from Catra's face.]

You think I won't when you challenge me like that?

[You started this, Catra...]

[ Another few seconds pass in which Catra holds Adora's gaze. Part of her wants to beat her to it, but the bigger part is curious whether she'll really go through with it. ]

Fine. Do it.

Fine. I will!

[She closes the distance, grabbing Catra by both shoulders and pulling her close.]
