so I mentioned a Hordak and Catra interaction being in my head.... would be post series (Entrapda and Adora also come up ffff) let’s see if I can articulate it into words this is just.. very rambling and not well structured (cause I am not a writer in the slightest) but hopefully it comes across alright hhhhh
so basic setup is Catra and Hordak being sent off to do some kind of mission (cleanup perhaps??) post finale (where and why? who knows! this is just the setup that came to mind)
one night they get talkin about idk redemption/trying to fit in with the others... idk what would prompt the comment (maybe Hordak is talking about how he tries to be polite and such to the other princesses?) but thought of Catra saying “even though they (referring to the other princesses) talk about you behind your back? 
“Do they?” Hordak asks, raising a brow Catra bites her tongue and there is a pause before Hordak continues “No, it does not effect me. The princesses are not obligated to forgive me, nor do I expect them to. But I know who I am now, more then ever. I have changed, I have apologized, and I am helping repair Etheria out of the guilt I feel for destroying it. Not to gain the approval of the princesses. They can see me for who I am now, or not, that is their choice. I cannot change that”
maybe they exchange a few more words after that maybe not idk but also pictured Hordak getting a call from Entrapta. She’s all excited to hear from him 
“How are you? How’s the mission going??” “Everything is fine. I believe we could finish things here in a day perhaps two” Entrapta smiles but her brow furrows in a worried expression “is Catra there?” His expression sours but he nods “Can I talk to her for a moment? privately?...” He frowns, clearly not pleased, but doesn’t protest as he silently hands the communicator screen to Catra, stands, and walks away. Once he seems out of earshot Catra looks down at the screen “what? “Is Hordak ok? Is he taking care of himself??” “what?! Why are you asking me?” Entrapta looks rather sheepish “because... he won’t always tell me if he’s unwell... I know he doesn’t want me to worry but...” she pulls her mask down to cover her face Catra looks in Hordak’s direction (his body language clearly reads his irritation but he’s trying to appear occupied with something) “he seems fine to me”
Entrapta lifts her mask and is about to say something else when another voice comes in from off screen “is that Catra?” Adora appears on screen “Catra!” “Hey Adora, remind me why I had to be the one on this mission?” Adora smiles apologetically “you were the best suited for it. It’s going ok tho right?” “I guess... Hordak says we should be done in a couple of days” “That’s good!... I miss you” Catra bristle then blushes “I miss you too” Adora’s attention is caught by someone off screen then “oh ok, sorry Catra I gotta go. I’ll see you in a couple days! I love you”  She tosses the communication screen back to Entrapta (I just picture her with a face like :T as she’s been sitting there awkwardly listening to their conversation the whole time)  Catra sighs “I’ll look out for Hordak alright? and make sure he doesn’t hurt himself”  Entrapta beams “Thanks Catra!”
“Hordak!” Catra calls to him “come say goodnight to your girlfriend” He walks back over, his gait ridged, eyes narrowed, and his cheeks and ears flushed red. He doesn’t break his gaze from Catra as he snatches the communicator from her. His expression only softens when he looks back to the screen. Entrapta is also blushing from Catra’s comment “I’ll call you tomorrow ok? to see how things are going?” “I look forward to it” She smiles “ok, well... goodnight” “goodnight, Starlight” (gosh I really hope spacebatisluvd doesn’t mind me using that nickname for her its just... its literally perfect and it makes me all soft thinking of him calling her that ghghghgh)
anyway hang up communicator and they probably just sit there in silence for a moment before Hordak says “what did you two talk about?” “not much honestly” he furrows his brow and balls his fists in his lap, clearly not satisfied with that answer “did you talk about me?” “why do you two have to put me in the middle of your relationship?!” a moment of silence before she continues with a huff “she asked me if you were taking care of yourself”  He looks almost hurt “she doesn’t trust me...” “No! She’s worried about you! She doesn’t want you to get hurt” she snaps. His expression changes to one of more confusion/surprise and he gentle touches the crystal at his neck “ugh can we just... get to sleep The sooner we get this mission done the sooner we can go home” she lays down with his back to him signalling the end of the conversation. Hordak silently agrees as he too lays down.
aaaand scene ffffff again just... random little blips of scenes that pop into my head hhhh not enough to do much with I don’t think since I am not a writer but too much for me to want to comic I think... I just... wanted to share tho cause it wouldn’t leave my head. (will I add more tho?? maybe cause did think of an additional thing based after this so... we’ll see hghggh)
