You can’t spell Denial without Dina & El by TrashyGrammy

Summary
Dina has always been very good at knowing what she feels.
She’s just never been brave enough to say it out loud.
Everyone else, apparently, has already decided she and her best friend are basically married. The shared apartment, the shared groceries, the shared cat, the way they move around each other like second nature. Dina insists they’re just close. Just comfortable. Just two people who make sense in the same space.
So when a charming florist asks her out the week of Valentine’s Day, Dina decides maybe it’s time to stop orbiting the same woman and actually move on.
The problem?
Some silences are louder than jealousy.
And some people don’t realize they’re in love until someone else sets the table.The obligatory Valentine's Day TWO shot(because I can't do anything half assed)

Summary
Captain Ellie Williams is an AWOL Galactic Military officer drifting through the stars, scavenging dead ships to pass the time in a universe quietly collapsing behind the scenes. No civilian knows the end is coming. Ellie does.
When she docks with an abandoned research vessel, she expects scrap, parts, and maybe a good story.
What she finds instead is a mystery bigger than her, and a woman who shouldn’t be alive at all.
With only her ship and her Cognitive Companion Unit (CCU), Rex, Ellie sets out to uncover who this woman is, why she was left alone on a dead ship, and what universe-bending secrets might be locked inside her mind.
Join me for a Space Odyssey Dellie AU filled with adventure, exploration, banter, danger, mystery, and a whole lot of unexpected love wrapped in one massive, cosmic package.

Summary
Ellie Miller has spent twenty years building a life she can stand. She produces records in Nashville, owns a condo, and has her name tucked into liner notes. Her routine is set: late nights in the studio, crowded music halls, and just enough distance from Silverlake to pretend it never really mattered.
Then one call pulls her home to where she’s needed, back into the town she gave up on long ago. Silverlake is waiting with the gym she refuses to walk into, the twenty-year reunion emails she keeps deleting, and the people she has avoided for more than half her life. Most of all Dina, the ghost she has never been able to outrun. Will Ellie discover that not everything in Silverlake was what it seemed, and that even broken bonds can be mended into something stronger than before?

Summary
JJ's eyes are Ellie's favorite thing.
Two deep brown galaxies, always so full of wonder and an immense affection she never deserved.
They'd look up and watch her intently—like she was something so important. Like she held the moon and the stars and his future in her hands.
It's terrifying.
Was terrifying.
She misses his eyes, and how they swam in the sunlight to create a new color. How they sparkled when Dina spoke to him in a way that made him laugh.
She can never get them right on paper. And she tries. And tries.
His laugh used to be so clear in her mind.
~
Ellie returns to Jackson. And shovels the snow in Dina's yard, every day.

Summary
Dina’s a 22-year-old English major with a crush on the kind of girl who only dates cool, confident queers. Dina is none of those things. She’s never dated a girl, panics whenever she tries, and the one time she made eye contact with her in the campus café, she dropped her phone into her latte.
Ellie is also 22, a college senior, and one failing grade away from blowing her art degree and losing her scholarship. She needs to pass Contemporary Poetry and the Queer Form to graduate, and she needs help doing it.
Ellie’s dated enough girls to know how the game works. She does not have time for someone else’s gay panic. But she’s also just desperate enough to say yes when Dina proposes a trade: tutoring for tutoring. Books for girls. Clean deal.
Until it isn’t.
Because the more time they spend together in study sessions and late-night practice flirting, the more the plot starts to shift.
Will Dina get the unattainable girl of her dreams?
Will Ellie survive poetry with her GPA and emotional detachment intact?
Or will they both realize they’ve been writing the wrong story all along?The College AU/Tutoring AU/Cyrano De Bergerac AU trifecta you didn't expect from me.
