Summary
It was a bad dream. He’d been up late, thinking about Nationals. His mind, admittedly, had drifted to the dynamics between his players. He liked to think of himself as above high school drama, but even he’d noticed the tension between even the closest members of the Yellowjackets. It made sense, then, that his mind had conjured up wild imaginings of cannibalism and hysteria. Sometimes it really did feel like these girls were one plane crash away from tearing each other apart. But in this moment, as he turned to survey the plane, they seemed so earnest, chattering amongst each other like they were real friends.
He couldn’t help it. His eyes drifted to Lottie, still unnerved from their earlier interaction. Her window had fogged up, and he watched her draw on it with her fingertip. She paused, hesitant, staring at her work. Ben craned his head to see more clearly what she was drawing as she nodded to herself, pressing her shaking finger to her seat window to strike a line through the triangle at the bottom of the symbol as the plane gave out.
An AU where Coach Scott wakes up after Season 3 back on that fuckass plane and tries (mostly unsuccessfully) to save these insane teenage girls from each other.

Summary
Here’s what an average day in the afterlife looks like for you. Shuffle aimlessly down an abandoned street. Moan and groan. Fall into a pack and hunt. Eat your fill. Then back to moaning and groaning. Rinse and repeat.
Look, it’s not as bad as it sounds. Apart from the whole “constant hunger for living flesh” thing, you mean. That part kind of sucks. But honestly, it could be a lot worse...
Tomorrow, you’ll do it all over again, and again the day after that, and on and on until there’s nothing left of you but a pile of bones.
It’ll be just one more fantastic day in the afterlife of a Dead girl.
An unconventional love story after the end of the world, with guts, brains, and a whole lot of heart.

Summary
Jackie blew out the candle.
Her hands came up to hold the cupcake, palms warm and pulsing beneath Shauna’s knuckles. The touch was burning her up, making her feverish.
“What’d you wish for?” She asked.
(Wish for what you’ve always had. Wish for what’s already yours. Wish for me.)

Shauna doesn't have to look to know Jackie is lounging on her bed, grinning at her. It feels as though Jackie belongs there more than she does.

Summary
Sometimes in these moments—sleepovers when Jackie wakes in the middle of the night and feels Shauna sleeping next to her, or the immediate aftermath of winning a big game when Shauna beams at her and jumps almost violently into her arms—Jackie wonders what would happen if she allowed herself to enjoy at least this much. If she leaned into the feeling, and let it wreck her.
Jackie and Shauna relive a night they've both tried—and failed—to forget.

Summary
She sees Lottie’s eyebrow raise, lips pursing ever so slightly as Shauna pushes herself back from the bar, giving into everything inside her that’s screaming at her to interrupt them and stop this. She’s stopped by a hand, lightly grasping at her forearm, tightening ever so slightly. She looks up, and Lottie shakes her head – gesturing towards them in a way that Shauna assumes she’s supposed to get.
She doesn’t get it. Not until she manages to make out the way Lottie mouths she’s flirting. Oh.
So, there’s that.
Jackie Taylor likes girls. Shauna doesn’t know why she feels so weird about it.

“Okay.” Jackie blinks. “Can we, uh, rewind? What you said about why it took so long while I was outside. This… uhm… parallel thing”
“Our joining?”
“I think so, yeah.”
Lottie nods with understanding. “An oversight. Apologies. We couldn’t exactly find the right words for it, since it’s hard to explain an experience you aren’t part of.”
“Oh. Okay.” Jackie raises her arms to hug herself. A chill creeps up her spine. “What do you mean?”
or
In true X-Files fashion, the Joining happens sometime in the fall of 1996.

Summary
Shauna Shipman has her first (and God willing, last) kid at seventeen years old. Her parents raise Callie while she goes off to Brown. "Until you can support her," they say again and again.
And then college is over, and Shauna is back in town, trying to reconnect with the four-year-old daughter she barely knows. She's not sure she can support herself, let alone Callie.
But it just so happens Shauna knows Callie's Pre-K teacher pretty well already. Or did, anyway. Back before everything blew up.
"Miss Taylor," Callie calls her.
Frankly, Jackie is a lot better with kids than Shauna is.

"I’m sorry, what?” Jackie blinked, eyelid twitching and crossing her arms over her chest. “She doesn’t have a coach?”
He slid a different piece of paper toward them while the woman began counting Jackie’s bills. Shauna would have to pay her back when she wasn’t looking. “Feel free to sign up. You’d just need to pass a background check.”
“Oh, no thank you, that’s—“ Shauna stopped as Jackie picked up the pen, writing her name with purpose. “Nevermind.”

Summary
Natalie never expected to die a hero. She expected to die alone, coked out in the back of some shitty van, a victim to herself and her fucking impulses. Or, she expected to die in fear, victim to a hunt or a sacrifice to some stupid Wilderness God she doesn’t believe in. So, in some ways, maybe this is a plus:
Yay me, I guess. At least they can put ‘she tried’ on my gravestone.
But this doesn’t feel like a victory. All it feels like is cold. A cold, lonely death, buried in the snow and completely, entirely alone. A useless death. A death that no one will remember.
This is how she dies - not with a bang, but with a whimper.
And then she wakes up.
OR: Natalie never makes it to the mountain. A sudden blizzard claims her first. But when she opens her eyes, she's back to the day of the crash. This time, she’s determined to keep everyone alive - even if The Wilderness has other plans.

"Is this really how you want to spend your Saturday night?"
"It's how I wanted to. But there's this rat in my ear making it difficult to enjoy."
"Oh, that's hilarious Nat. You know, Tai offered a movie night. Her parents are out today."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah."
"Then why are you still pedaling?"

Nat drags Van out to vandalize an abandoned pizzeria. They're fifteen, cocky, bitter, and use too much spray paint, according to the ghost that interrupts them.

Most people went their whole lives without hearing the voice of a soulmate inside their head—Jackie should consider herself lucky.
It was just a shame that she discovered her own soulmate while away from Shauna, and with about ninety seconds to go before she died in an airplane crash.

Summary
There is something to be said about spilling your own blood in service to another, but what about spilling someone else’s blood? Is that not a sacrifice in its own right? Shauna doesn’t really know what she’s doing. That doesn’t matter, here. She just knows that she needs to be with Jackie, and she needs Jackie to be okay, and she’ll do anything to keep her. Anything. Everything. Even if it hurts her. Even if it hurts everyone around them.
Or:
The night that the team sent Jackie out into the cold has always been important, but what if something changed?

Summary
Rescue comes in the winter of ’97, not ‘98: Jackie doesn’t die and Natalie’s never crowned, but the violence endures. Nat leaves her heart, spirit, and soul in the wilderness; Jackie loses two fingers, her memory, and Shauna Shipman. They’re figuring it out, together.
It works, right up until Lottie crashes her car into a tree and upends absolutely fucking everything.
OR
In the summer of ’99, the fractured Yellowjackets reunite to play the single worst season of roller derby that central Jersey has ever seen.Bookmarked by just__existing
