    Summary

    This girl had been hanging on her every word for the past few hours, showering her with compliments, laughing at just about everything she said and even dragging her out for a dance. Carla would be lying if she told herself she hadn’t enjoyed the attention. And — be it because she apparently had a thing for blonde women or simply because this particular one was gorgeous — there was no denying that Carla was attracted to her. But something about that made her uneasy, even with all the alcohol in her system, even though she had no real reason to feel guilty.

    Or;

    Having moved back into No. 6 after "ending" things with her still-legally-married-to-a-resurrected-woman fiancée, a contract renewal meeting brings about the return of two people Carla hasn't seen in a while: Posh Gareth and Jealous Lisa.

    Summary

    Lisa Swain is a rule following police detective living a predictable, quiet suburban life with her wife, Becky, and their teenage daughter. But her carefully structured world is completely upended when Carla Connor, a stunning, unapologetic party girl and erotic novel author, moves in next door. To get away from her busy dramatic city life. What begins as a voyeuristic curiosity from Lisa's spare room window quickly spirals into a consuming obsession. Drawn to Carla's chaotic energy and explicit world, Lisa finds herself risking everything to cross the property line and the boundaries of her 13 year marriage, plunging into a passionate, illicit affair with the woman next door.

    Summary

    For each day of this month (June) aka pride month, I shall give myself a prompt and write a one shot each day to the best of my ability. The first chapter will be a conversation about sexuality between Carla and Lisa as I always wished Corrie delve more deeply into that and the vulnerability that comes with it. There will be many one shots from domestic Swarla to Swarla on a night out in the town or a drag night like we saw in the show. Enjoy and always feel free to provide me with any constructive criticism. Thank you! Happy Pride Month everybody, happy June lovelies🌈✨

    Summary

    Carla Connor is haunted by the trauma of an abusive past relationship with Cate Henri whose name resurfaces when DS Lisa Swain arrives to investigate Cate’s connection to a possible murder and disappearance case. As Carla is forced to confront painful memories of coercive control, isolation, and emotional abuse through a series of flashbacks, Lisa’s calm and compassionate presence gradually becomes a source of safety and stability in her otherwise chaotic world.

    While helping the investigation, Carla begins forming an intense emotional connection with Lisa, who sees beyond her guarded exterior, and after Lisa rescues a drunken, emotionally overwhelmed Carla and takes her home, it becomes clear that their bond may become the lifeline Carla desperately needs.

    Summary

    Fancy some lunch? It was a simple question really. Although im not sure Lisa was thinking this was how her lunch break was going to go but Carla really, really, really wanted lunch.

    An alternative spin on todays episode.

    I said it on twitter, that kitchen island is so pretty and unused. So I changed that.
