Clexa Week 2021 Day 6 - Magic

“I am Lexa kom Trikru of the Clan Trikru. I was born over a thousand years ago on the shores of Lake Polis. I cannot die. I am immortal.”

“It’s a kind of magic.”

From the dawn of time, the immortals have been waging their secret war. They’ve hunted each other across the centuries in search of the Quickening and the Prize. Now, the last of them feel the call of the Gathering, the final battle which only one of them will survive.

Paramedic Clarke Griffin has a job she loves, plenty of friends to fill her time, and a very interesting ongoing flirtation with Rachel Nash, who’s recently opened an art and antiques store near her. Getting called out to reports of swordfights and injuries from lightning strikes is not a regular night, even before she spots the woman she knows as Rachel with a sword in her hand.

Lexa thought she’d hidden herself away from the other immortals with a new life in a new city with a very distracting paramedic who keeps finding excuses to visit her store. Now the Gathering has landed on her doorstep and she has to fight for her life, for the world and for a love she thought she could never feel again. Will all that be enough to stop Ontari taking her head and the Prize?

In the end, there can be only one.

New Rules - Clexaweek22 Edition

Day 2: Trapped AU

When a thunderstorm knocks out the power, Clarke and Lexa are stuck without lights, without internet...and without patience.

Aka: celebrating Clexaweek 2022 by adding a new scene to the fic that was inspired by Clexaweek 2021. 

“I’m in the middle of something, Clarke.”

Her testy tone doesn’t go unmarked. Even from across the room Lexa can feel Clarke’s eyebrow perk, can imagine the indignation on her face as she hears Clarke put the picture frame back down. Then her footsteps, crossing the room and bringing the glaring light of her phone with her.

“I’ll remind you it’s Anya you’re angry with,” she says, folding one arm over her stomach and resting her other elbow on her wrist. From here, there’s nothing Lexa can do to dodge the challenging look she throws her way. “Not me.”

Lexa’s jaw shifts from one side to the other, and she opens her eyes once more to level a glare at her. “And yet, one might think that while I’m angry is the precisely wrong time to be asking me such things.”

Silence. Clarke stares right back, entirely unimpressed with that answer; as if the storm outside has leaked through the glass, Lexa can feel the barometric pressure in the room change as it gathers around the blonde.

“I will also remind you,” she says with the sort of forced patience that tells Lexa her real patience is running thin, “that you invited me here tonight.”

And Lexa still has some semblance of grace left in her, so she drops her head. Eyes closed, face angled to the floor, she takes a slow breath in before lifting her chin again. Elbows on her chair arms, she levels a look at Clarke.

“I know. I’m sorry.” She is sorry, a bit - but she could definitely sound sorrier than she does. After finding out that an essential aspect of one of their products broke after an update, meriting an immediate emergency comm for over a thousand of Coalition’s top clients, and then having the storm knock out power to the entire Upper East Side, in turn preventing her from logging on to Coalition’s VPN to okay said emergency comm due to lack of wifi, Lexa’s well of patience is also running dry. There’s only so much she can do from the Slack app on her phone. “I just have a lot on my mind right now.”

Clarke’s eyebrow is indeed raised, and it’s perfectly evident that her apology failed to pass muster. “Should I leave?”

Lexa casts a single, pointed glance outside. “In this?” she asks, and as though in answer the sky  cracks  with thunder that echoes across the skyline. “Don’t be ridiculous.”

Chapter and fic rated E for explicit sexual content.

Read on Ao3.

Clexaweek 2021: Day 6 - Magic

They were but children when they parted. Clarke had just been crowned queen and was eager to prove her strength; Lexa wanted to travel the world to study her craft. Yet their hearts never stopped longing for one another.

Ten years later, Lexa returns to find that darkness has taken over the kingdom, from the skies that cloud over the castle to the very roots of the trees in the thick woods around it. From the starving people who inhabit the villages all over the kingdom to the squabbling nobles that rule over the cities.

To the queen herself.

Lexa can't believe the stories. She can't bring herself to accept that Clarke is capable of such atrocities. That the righteous young woman she left behind years ago has become a queen as evil as the spirits that now roam the woods around the castle, whose hand kills with magic as well as with sword.

Her hopes are confirmed when she finds a cracked mirror buried beneath the coiling roots of the tree they once carved their love on. It is not her reflection looking back at her from the jagged shards of glass, but rather Clarke's. No, not Clarke — it is her likeness, though her skin is white as snow and her eyes a blue so cold she feels the frost seep into her bones.

The same mirror, albeit larger, hangs on a wall in the queen's private chambers. However, the eyes which meet the wretched ruler's from the other side of the glass are blue as a clear sky.

With Clarke trapped and an evil entity masquerading as the queen, Lexa must storm the castle and shatter the mirror in order to free her beloved and save the realm.

Clexaweek 2021 - Day Five

Out of Bounds

Clarke knew Lexa was out of bounds. She was well aware of the inappropriateness of her relationship with the business woman. Dating patrons, especially those related to your boss, is frowned upon at the club. However, the dancer couldn’t find the strength to care about such frivolous rules when the brunette’s head was between her legs.

Or

Clarke works as an exotic dancer at a club owned by Anya Woods and finds herself wrapped up in a tumultuous affair with the club owner’s cousin.

Hello trans men and women have existed since the beginning of time (just like lgb people) and we wouldn’t have pride without queer trans women of color. The only people who need to be dropped from the community are radfems and terfs.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk and happy pride.

Clexaweek - Day 1: Accidental love confession 

Mac and cheese

Does drunk Clarke make bad decision? Usually. Does drunk Clarke tell her best friend -in a very stupid way- that she's in love with her? Possibly. And is her best friend the biggest disaster lesbian out there? Absolutely.

Oh, and Lexa has a puppy.

Clexaweek - Day 4: At work 

Stress release

Lexa is stressed out after a long day at work, she can't go home yet because she has a meeting at night with one of the company's international clients. But when the internet stops working and her nerves are getting the better of her, a little visit from her wife (in a very tiny dress) helps release some of that stress and tension.

OR

My excuse to write Lexa fucking Clarke against the glorious floor-to-ceiling window in her office.

Clexaweek - Day 3: Reunited 

Some things have changed since high school

Clarke Griffin and Lexa Woods used to be best friends back in high school. But unfortunately, they lost touch soon after graduation. So given that tonight is their high school's ten-year reunion, they are both coming in hoping to see each other and reconnect.

But here's the thing, Lexa wasn't expecting to come face to face with one of the most beautiful women she has ever seen. What she was expecting even less was that this woman is her high school best friend. Because last she remembered Clarke Griffin, the only friend she had in high school, was a guy. But oh was she wrong.

OR

The clexa AU where they used to be friends in high school and lost touch after. Clarke is trans but wasn't out back then but is now and has transitioned so when Lexa sees her best friend is actually this incredibly beautiful woman, her brain kind of short-circuits.

Clexaweek 2021: Day 3 - Reunited (a summary)

Several months after Praimfaya, Clarke is roaming the now deserted Earth without a destination. All her friends on the spaceship actually died (ship exploded after take-off); there’s no Madi either. So she’s roaming the desert when a portal opens and out comes.... her doppelganger.

After a less than warm introduction, because it’s Clarke (and there’s two of them now), Clarke 2 tells Clarke that they don’t just look alike — she’s her but from another world and her name is Ruby. And she makes her an offer (mind you, Clarke is desperate and 100% she is going to die sooner or later): trade places with her. Ruby will stay in the desert, where she actually has the tools to survive, and Clarke can take her place in her own world.

Clarke’s like 🤔 a chance to actually live a life 🤔 know what could’ve been in a different world 🤔 well what the hell, I’ll take it. So Ruby hands Clarke an object that allows her to travel ONCE to another world and they part ways — Ruby stays in our Earth, whereas our Clarke goes to that other world.

Clarke lands in a 16th century style palace bedroom. She barely has time to collect her bearings when the door opens and---

---in full 16th century noble garb, looking heartbroken, when she suddenly sees Clarke and... she nearly faints.

Sixteenth century Lexa goes totally neurotic because her Clarke just died so who is this imposter??? And she knocks Clarke down and is about to kill her (as if she could bring herself to do it) when the door slams open and---

Yes. Another one 👀 two Lexas. Clarke’s lil bi heart can’t take this.

This one is dressed completely different, a lot more sci-fi, almost like a modern deity. And she just comes in and MIB’s the first Lexa and Clarke is like WTF IS GOING ON HERE??? But also-- LEXA????

This Lexa, we’ll just call her Lexa for the sake of both our collective sanity and the story because Lexa is you-know-what, helps Clarke up and asks her to come with her, to which Clarke is like lol no, explain first. But Lexa’s all like annoyed eye roll and look we don’t have time, I promise I’ll explain everything if you come with me. She also assures Clarke that 16th century Lexa will be fine, she just won’t remember what happened.

Anyway, Clarke goes with her and they enter a sort of palace/tower in the middle of space or like in a rift between worlds. There’s a big room there with an oval/round table, which is basically a database for every single Clarke and Lexa in existence. The building is called The Observatory.

Lexa explains that there is a multitude of universes and timelines where the two of them exist. A lot of their iterations have different names, but sometimes they’re called Clarke and Lexa. Those are like their “purest” versions.

So, yes. They’re soulmates. Obviously.

And there is always a Clarke-Clarke or a Lexa-Lexa watching over all of them, making sure everything runs smoothly. Which is what Lexa does. When an Observer dies (time passes normally for them) another takes her place.

Basically, in this AU, every Clexa fic that’s ever been or ever will be written is canon.

Anyway, Lexa tells her tat the Lexa-Lexa or Clarke-Clarke that becomes the Observer is one who has passed away too soon. And Clarke is like 👀👀👀 so are you MY- but Lexa shuts that idea down very quickly.

So what happened to this rogue Clarke? A Clarke aka Ruby has been killing other Clarkes for a while but Lexa has no idea why and she also doesn’t know WHICH version of Clarke she is. There’s millions, billions of their iterations.

She killed 16th century Clarke (whose name wasn’t Clarke), too.

And why can’t Lexa just go after her in Clarke’s world? Because while you can detect anomalies (like a live Clarke in a dead Clarke’s world) you can only locate Clarkes or Lexas if you know WHO they are. Also, the Observer can’t stay in any world for longer than two weeks.

Clarke asks Lexa why she didn’t just go back to her world after being sort of brought back to life. Lexa explains she’s only allowed a short total amount of time in her original world and she already used some of it a long time ago when she went back to help her soulmate when no one else would. Clarke, remembering how her Lexa showed up in the City of Light to help her, says it must have killed Lexa’s Clarke to lose her a second time. Lexa says it was just as painful for her.

And she can’t stay on HER original world for longer than a day — otherwise she dies/disintegrates (and another Observer will take her place.

Clarkes and Lexas are supposed to live out their lives without outside interference. In some worlds they know about soulmates, in others they don’t, bu they need to live in their own worlds and timelines. The Observer observes — everything else is considered tampering with how things are supposed to be. So the time limit rule is meant to keep her from influencing other Clarkes and Lexas and from going back to her own world.

So Lexa can’t just jump into Clarke’s world going after Ruby because it might take too long to find her.

Still, they have a name now, thanks to Clarke — Ruby. So they look it up... Only to find out there’s like a thousand Rubys. Obviously they can’t find a ruby needle in a haystack so they try to understand why Ruby would go on a soulmate killing spree. Clarke and Lexa start visiting every world and BONDING and shit.

There’s also some soul searching on Clarke’s behalf because she’s struggling between being sad about Lexa but also mad because once again she was left behind. And Observer Lexa helps her sort through all those feelings, and our Clarke starts maybe developing some feely feels for this Lexa but also feels GUILTY.

And this one time there’s something Lexa says that makes the lightbulb go off in Clarke’s head.

What if Ruby never had a soulmate?

What if there was never someone meant for her in the first place?

Lexa counters with the fact that several iterations of them never even get together, that being someone’s soulmate isn’t binding — there’s still a choice. But, Clarke says — how heartbreaking would it be to never have a choice at all?

You can never make the wrong choice or the right choice. You can never change your mind. And it’s heartbreaking to have that choice ripped away from you.

That’s Ruby. She never had a choice. And, as they find out eventually, she comes from a world where soulmates are a pretty big deal. Upon finding out by accident that there are billions of Clarkes in millions of other worlds who have a Lexa, while she — sue to some crazy glitch of the universes — had that choice taken away from her, her excruciating pain turned into something ugly. And she decided to start killing Clarkes, so Lexas all around other worlds would feel HER pain.

And that’s how Clarke and Lexa realize what was missing: the numbers didn’t add up. The sum of Rubys with living and dead soulmates didn’t match the total number of Rubys — because there was one whose soulmate was neither dead or alive. She never existed in the first place.

So they manage to filter out all the other Rubys and find the right one. Lexa’s intention is to stun and arrest her, but Clarke is a little more practical and just takes a gun.

Before they go, though, Clarke and Lexa have a heart to heart.

At this point, their feelings for each other are too strong to ignore. So before they go, Lexa asks larke to stay with her in the Observatory even after they catch Ruby. Clarke wants to, but she also feels guilty because she’s falling in love with THIS Lexa and it feels like a betrayal of HER Lexa. And she feels like she owes it to HER Lexa to make an effort to survive and build something in their world. So she tells Observer Lexa she can’t, because she can’t run away again like she did when Ruby came to her. She HAS to build humanity back up in her world. She HAS to survive.

And that’s when Lexa — nervous, tentative Lexa — asks:

“Maybe life should be about more than just surviving. Don’t we deserve better than that?”

So, yes. It’s Lexa 😌

(If you think about it - I didn’t mention it but - she knew which Clarke Clarke is right away. She didn’t ask, the Obervatory didn’t tell her. She just knew who Clarke was. Because Clarke has that scar on her forehead from when Emerson attacked her. And the moment she saw it — she KNEW.)

Lexa didn’t say it before because she knew Clarke would want to stay with her but she didn’t know if there would be any consequences. And if there were and it turned out to be impossible for Clarke to stay, then the heartbreak would have been all the greater, because they’d be losing each other a fourth time.

Anyway, Clexa reconnect and everything is beautiful but they still have a murderous soulmate to catch.

They teleport themselves to a spot close to Ruby. Some fighting ensues, Clarke loses her gun, which ends up in Lexa’s hands, and Ruby ends up pointing her own at Clarke’s pretty head. And Lexa has a double reason not to dire that gun: one, she’s still a grounder and grounders don’t touch Mountain Men weapons; two, she’d be shooting a Clarke for all intents and purposes.

Ruby taunts Lexa about not being able to shoot her, pokes the bear a few times about how she’ll have so much fun killing Clarke — You wouldn’t mind, would you? After all, it’s just another one in a billion —, yada yada.

And then Lexa actually shoots.

And Ruby dies and Clarke runs to Lexa’s arms and Lexa is like, I thought I was over the violence, and Clarke pulls her to meet her eyes: We are now.

Clarke and Lexa go back to the Observatory and Clarke asks if it’s actually safe being there, if she or Lexa won’t be harmed for it. And Lexa tells her she’d been thinking about how everything happens for a reason and maybe, just maybe — maybe this WAS always meant to be their second chance.

(Or third. Or fourth.)

So they stay there and live out their days together traveling between worlds and making a home for themselves in the Observatory. Their maybe someday has arrived at last; they owe nothing more to their people.

Clexaweek 2021 - Day Four

At Work

“Someone tried to kill you today,” the detective states as she watches her wife survey the body in front of her -- a mix of fear and anger coating her words. 

“Yes,” the young doctor replies matter of factly; her gaze never moving from the corpse on her slab.

She was examining the victim again, looking for anything she may have missed during her initial autopsy. She can sense her wife’s worry and she doesn't have to turn around and look to know that her favorite pair of jade eyes are staring at her in concern.

“Does that not bother you at all?”

Lexa asks in irritation as she takes in Clarke's rather nonchalant demeanor. Her wife had been shot at today and here she was, acting as though nothing was out of the ordinary. It was moments like this that she wishes she hadn’t let the other woman convince her that working together would be a good idea. Her line of work was already stressful and now she had the added pleasure of worrying about her wife’s safety every minute of the day.

“I figured it was a good thing,” the medical examiner earnestly answers breaking the detective out of her thoughts. 

However, her words only seem to further upset the brunette whose whole body stiffened in response to her reply. With a tick of her jaw and quirk of her brow, Lexa asks for clarification:

“How the hell is getting shot at a good thing, Clarke?”

“Well, I don't think they would’ve tried to kill me if we weren't close to cracking the case.”

Clexaweek 2021 - Day 4: At Work

Washington DC, 1985. Clarke Griffin leads the FBI task force charged with hunting Russian sleeper agents. Spies who have ingrained themselves in their society — people who live, look, and sound just like regular Americans. People like Lexa Palfrey. A pretty stranger whose charming smile hides more secrets than the conspiracy Clarke is racing to uncover.

[puthyflapps]

Clexaweek 2021 - Day Six

Magic

There has been peace on the ground for years now. Clans once torn apart by war now live in perfect harmony. Lexa and Clarke finally owe nothing more to their people but despite these great advances, there is still something missing. 

They want a child. Lexa wants to watch Clarke’s belly swell with the life of her baby. Clarke wants to watch the calloused hands of her lover gently hold the small form of their child for the first time. The lovers want to spend lazy days in bed gazing lovingly at their baby as they try to determine which of the child’s features belong to one another. They want to stroll through the city streets of Polis, showing off the beautiful human who is a product of their eternal love for each other. They want a family all their own and Clarke would do anything to make that happen. Even if it meant making a deal with a witch.

By all accounts, Clarke Griffin, Hollywood's most bankable superstar, has made it. Except a decision, and a sacrifice to get there has haunted her for years.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Clexaweek 2021. This is a three chapter fic, matching up to the first three days/prompts.

UPDATE (March 2, 2021): This is now a SEVEN part fic (whoops), using the prompts from all days of Clexaweek 2021 (also, the rating's changed). Decided to stretch out the arc of the angst a little bit more (to those of you who suffered through that angst in Love Lockdown, apologies in advance. :D) This also means byebye for now to all the other Clexaweek 2021 works I had planned; maybe we can dust them off for future Clexa festivities.

What can I say, the muses are whimsical, or I'm just fickle. So it goes.
