***
catch you when you fall
[Alexis/Twyla and Alexis & David, Teen, 9,718]
Alexis makes a surprise visit to Schitt's Creek to spend some quality time with her girlfriend. But David is under the weather, and with Patrick out of town, Alexis tries her best to take care of him.
***
Hey, Brewer
[Patrick, Ronnie, Teen, 6,393]
A week before, Patrick would have said Ronnie asking for his help was impossible but when she comes into the store to do just that he tries his hardest, despite his confusion and questions. Even after she leaves, their interaction preys on his mind. Over the next few weeks something starts to shift between them but Patrick can't help but be curious as to what started it all off and what Ronnie's thinking.
***
here kitty, kitty
[Ted/Patrick, Teen, 1,352]
Patrick didn't expect to find a cat or meet a hot vet 
***
oh, i kinda of think i wanna make it last forever
[Stevie/Ruth, Teen, 2,206]
Ruth can scream. She can wail. She can effortlessly hit the kind of notes that Axl Rose has to warm up for, jumping from pitch to pitch with the kind of abandon that seems like precision. And she knows how to dial it back, following Patrick's lead with an obvious ease that startles Stevie. When their voices meld together, Ruth matching him beat for beat, note by note, Stevie can't help herself.
She catches Mutt's eye, tilting her head towards the vocalists, and bites back a grin when the two of them join in.
And the funny thing is: this shouldn't be so effortlessly easy. The four of them have never played together before.
Voting her into the band, though, is the easiest decision that Stevie's ever made.
--
OR: Stevie hates when people tell her to smile. After Ruth joins her band, though, she can't stop smiling.
***
[Fanart] There’s a Dead Guy in Room 4
[Stevie & Roland, General, 0]
The coroner said he’d be discreet with the body removal…so why did 6 people show up to assist? And, why were they all wearing hazmat suits?

Welcome to Day 3! As we head into the weekend please enjoy these lovely works: we’ve got New Year’s, weddings, Santa, and much more!!! 
If you’re following along with the daily releases and want to track your progress,  you can find the latest updates in this Google Sheet!
*❄️*
DAY 3 REVEALS
Like Nothing I'd Seen Before
[David/Patrick - M - 14,248]
Patrick hides in New York during New Year's Eve after breaking up with Rachel, again.
David gets abandoned by his so-called friends on New Year’s and starts heading home.
They meet and kiss.
Then David suddenly vanishes without a trace.
Will they find each other again?
*❄️*
Just because you like to wander, that doesn't mean you don't know the way
[David/Patrick - T - 9,439]
Prompt:
It's a week before Christmas and David Rose has run away from Schitt's Creek. Only problem is, the truck he stole broke down and now he's stranded. He's rescued by a nice couple who insist that he stay with them and their newly single son for Christmas.-
I didn't fill the prompt exactly as it is but I hope you don't mind!
-
“David, what I’m about to say is going to sound very weird, but hear me out… my parents are trying to set us up.”
A surprised laugh escapes David, he had wondered the night before, but still… “What? No, that's not possible. No parent has ever wanted me as a partner for their child.”
“Well, they do. Mostly Mom, but Dad is on board too, even if he isn’t trying as actively as she is.”
*❄️*
Santa Baby (All I Want For Christmas Is You)
[David/Patrick, Stevie & David, David & Roland Moira Schitt, David & Jocelyn - M - 8,640]
Is David on the naughty or nice list? Read on to find out..
*❄️*
Where the Lovelight Gleams
[Stevie & David, David/Patrick - NR - 6,834]
Stevie and David have not spoken in fifty-eight days. But the holidays are a time for friends to set aside grievances, and, when that doesn't work, some well intended meddling from the people who love them.
*❄️*
A Beautiful Discovery
[David/Patrick - M - 4,116]
“I have a secret.”
“What is it?”
“You kiss better than the bride.” Patrick whispered.
David and Patrick meet at the singles table at Rachel's wedding but things aren't as they seem when they meet up in Patrick's room after the wedding.
*❄️*
i would wait in a thousand lines with you
[David/Patrick, Alexis & David, Patrick & Alexis & David - G - 2,961]
David just always knew that Santa wasn’t real.
Adelina had tried her best to make up for lost ground with the Rose children, including celebrating special childhood holiday traditions. When a visit to a mall Santa goes a little sideways, a kind boy and some Christmas magic prove that even if it takes a few decades for it to happen, David can have everything he has always wanted.
*❄️*
He Works Hard for the Money
[David/Patrick - E - 1,693]
Rose Apothecary hits a milestone. The owners must celebrate. In the only way they know how.
*❄️*
[Podfic] just a little bit of magic
[Alexis/Twyla - T - 25]
Twyla Sands has always known the day that she would meet her true love.
(Podfic of just a little bit of magic by nerdframed).
*❄️*

find the word challenge
Thanks for the tags @alyxmastershipper @swiftiediaz @mysteriouslyyounggalaxy @elvensorceress @spotsandsocks😘
rules: share snippets of your work containing each of the words the previous poster selected for you (optional addition: if you can't find the word in your WIPs, or you simply don't have any WIPs, you can just write a sentence around the word)
My words are (I just did the ones I had!): gentle, hands, please, stop, sigh, love, scream, heaven, stars, home, peace tugs, sleep, tender, whisper, fall, reach, cries, lick, understand, longing, sweet, night, regret, blue, fear, couch, wall
Words for people I tag: tea, lonely, book, radio, mess
Tagging (if you want to play) my love @lizzie-bennetdarcy @stereopticons @blackandwhiteandrose @rmd-writes @apothecarose @fatedbuddie @shortsighted-owl @alysiswriting @monsterrae1 @vanillahigh00
For anyone that has known me for more than 2 seconds, you know that WIP is a very broad term in my world. Also, there are many words, so under the cut for mine. Off we go!
@alyxmastershipper's words:
gentle (Wait for me to come home) He relearns how to adjust his touch to something more gentle. To keep his thrusts calibrated for someone smaller, lighter. To expect that the hands touching him won’t be calloused and firm, but soft and featherlight. He likens it to returning to a favorite childhood hangout. Somewhere that feels familiar, with mostly good memories, but you know you don’t exactly belong there anymore.
hands (Buddie stargazing fic) Evan scratches the back of his neck, where the grass tickles his skin, before pillowing both hands under his head and crossing his ankles.
please (from S6 midseason spec) Eddie stares, scrunching his eyebrows for a moment, then glances up at Buck with a look he can’t quite decipher. He’s not upset, but doesn’t exactly look pleased either. “That’s- that’s great, Buck. Good for them. I’m glad you were able to help.”
stop (from Buck moving into Eddie's fic) The racing thoughts abruptly stop, replaced with only one. One absolutely absurd memory.
sigh (from [redacted] for @alysiswriting) With a resigned sigh, he finishes filling his plate with an array of raw vegetables, Linda’s BLT dip, and something he only knows is wrapped in phyllo dough. For good measure he takes a second one because he knows Buck’s been eyeing them up. Eddie would gladly hand it over, but he actually wants to try it for himself.
@swiftiediaz's words:
love (from [redacted] for @elvensorceress) Buck enters the apartment, his movements still slow, like he’s floating. Buoyed by the love and contentment that only comes from spending an evening at the Diaz house.
scream (also from the [redacted for Jenwyn]) The hollow ache in his chest that’s always there unexpectedly feels deeper. Wider. Like it may actually break through and tear him apart. How can such emptiness feel so massive? As if his ribs are slowly cracking open, snapping one by one, stretching the skin while crushing his lungs and heart. He wants to scream or cry or something. Anything. But it’s all stuck, gathered in a tangle that refuses to budge.
stars (Buddie stargazing) The line goes dead, leaving him alone with the fireflies. Pinpricks of stars are beginning to emerge in the night sky, forming faint outlines of near recognizable constellations. If she could see them, he wonders if Maddie would see the same sky where she is. Maybe.
home (Stevie/Ruth) Stevie doesn’t need a lot in life, but there’s something to be said for a company car that will take her where she wants. And right now she wants to get home, to the person who will gladly carry every ache and burden she has. Because no matter the geographical location, Ruth is home.
peace (Fashion & Baseball) Patrick wishes his mind would string together something more coherent than flashes of partial words he can’t seem to access. The single language available is David, David, David on an endless loop. He looks relaxed, holding his fingers up in a peace sign, dressed in a black sweater patterned with white flowers, tight black jeans and sunglasses that are probably worth more than Patrick’s car.
@mysteriouslyyounggalaxy's words
tugs (I know all your Secrets) Patrick greedily claims David’s mouth and brackets his palms on David’s waist, tugging their hips together. There’s a renewed urgency to his movements, signaling to David that Patrick wants control now.
sleep (David/Stevie The Honeymoon coda) During the day she parades around with a see-if-I-care attitude, armed with a razor sharp wit, ready to cut whoever gets too close. At night though, fucked out and fast asleep, she tells a different story. It’s present in the way her mussed up raven hair fans across the pillow.
whisper (David/Patrick mall pretzel Patrick) He lets his head loll to the side and shoots her the best glare he can manage. When he’s satisfied he’s glared enough, David drapes his arm across his forehead and knits his brows together. “Stevie.” It comes out part whine, part whisper, all desperation.
fall (Buck moving into Eddie's) Or Eddie holding Buck in the aftermath of Abby coming back, letting him sob and fall apart until he exhausted himself and Eddie put him to bed.
@elvensorceress's words:
reach (Twylexis) “‘Lexis!” Twyla bolts up in bed, orienting herself to the room lit only by a patch of moonlight. She reaches out to the other half of the bed, grasping at air, and it takes her a moment to realize — to remember — she’s alone because Alexis is away. This always happens the first night, but she still isn’t used to it.
cries (Stevie/Ruth) There’s an uncomplicated sense of satisfaction when her key slides into the lock and she pushes the door open. After it clicks shut, there’s a clang from the kitchen accompanied by a string of curses that makes Stevie chuckle. Because really if she doesn’t, she might cry at this point.
sweet (Fashion & Baseball) “Oh, just look at all my sweet boys!” Marcy Brewer coos in the direction of Patrick, Andy, Ted, Mutt and David, all standing in the grass outside the Brewer house.
understand (magical realism cat!Buck) “What does that matter?” Buck asks, tilting his head to the side like he genuinely doesn’t understand. “You’ve been raising him this whole time, you’re an amazing father. Gods, Eddie, have you even looked at your son lately?”
longing (David/Patrick Olive Branch) It‘s as if his efforts to remain professional had wrapped around the remnants of despair and longing only to fray and knot them all together.
@spotsandsocks words:
night (magical realism cat!Buck) Ana slips out the door, turning to smile again and blow him a kiss. The deep red imprint floats through the autumn air, landing on his cheek soft like a butterfly. Then she’s gone in a swirl of lavender smoke and fallen leaves, fading into the night.
blue (magical realism cat!Buck) He can already feel the eyes on him before he closes the door. The bright blue orbs, almost electric with their intensity.
fear (Wait for me to come home) Buck had let him do that. He taught Eddie how to want without shame or fear of rejection. Shannon doesn’t know that Eddie though. Afraid of driving her away from Christopher again he had immediately shut that part of himself down.
couch (Buck moving into Eddie's) People wouldn’t see video game tournaments on the couch, baking cookies with Christopher, Eddie telling him there’s no one he trusts more with his son.
wall (Buddie stargazing) He doesn’t want to, not yet. Out here is calm and relaxing. Inside is stuffy and constricting. It makes his muscles tense, like he needs to move. And in there he’s not allowed to move the way he wants. Mom and Dad have so many fragile things lining the walls, Evan wonders if they aren’t secretly inhabiting a museum. At any rate, as parents, he’s pretty sure their focus is in the wrong place.

Rare & Gen Rec Round-Up - November & December 2022
Happy 2023! We hope it's off to a great start! To wrap up 2022, here are our recs from November and December, and we'd also like to give a warm rare/gen welcome to @hullomoon, our latest mod! Enjoy the recs!
The Best Things in Life Are Free by @icantbestill29, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 1759 words 
SUMMARY: It's the thought that counts, right?
Rec [written by doingthemost]: This is a super cute, fluffy Christmas moment between these two. Twyla's conflict over what to get Alexis for the holiday is so relatable and realistic, and the payoff of the actual gift—and Alexis' reaction!—is so worth it.
bigger than the whole sky by @blackandwhiteandrose, David-centric, rated M, 1201 words
SUMMARY: On the rooftop of his gallery in New York City, David and a friend get introspective (and high) about life and love.
Rec [written by petalwrites]: This pre-canon slice of introspection is such a beautiful and emotional look into David’s headspace before Schitt’s Creek. It really makes you appreciate his growth throughout the show. (It does feature a canon character from another universe, but no knowledge of that show is needed.)
cosy by @alysiswriting, Stevie/Twyla, rated M, 100 words 
SUMMARY: Stevie deserves all the good things. And great sex.
Rec [written by samwhambam]: This is 100 words of perfect story building. It’s sultry, a little bit sweet and very cosy. Perfect for a little bedtime read.
A Jewelled Tapestry by jamilas_pen, David-centric, rated G, 100 words 
SUMMARY: David observes an autumnal spectacle.
Rec [hullomoon]: I love introspection and this drabble is so poetic. If you want to be reminded of a crisp autumn day and the path life has given you, I high recommend. 
Performance by @wearpersistencewell, Alexis & David, rated T, 182 words 
SUMMARY: David is concerned, but unsurprised, when Alexis puts on a familiar show.
Rec [hullomoon]: I love reading fics that dissect Alexis & Ted’s breakup. With David focusing on how he and Alexis both handled them in the past, it’s nice to see what’s changed.
Raindrops on Roses by meeshxsmith, Stevie/Twyla, rated G, 1033 words
SUMMARY: Stevie and Twyla try out for the Sound of Music.
Rec [written by samwhambam]: If there’s one thing I LOVE, it’s car conversations. And this fic has a flirty, hopeful car conversation! Twyla offering to take care of Stevie? Yes, please! Very nice.
Sherlock Sands and the Mystery of the Pie Thief by @sarahlevys, Gen (with background Alexis/Twyla), rated G, 609 words
SUMMARY: When Twyla Sands' pumpkin pie disappears from the table, she goes on a quest to discover the thief.
Rec [written by petalwrites]: This is the insight into Twyla’s family that we all needed. Full disclosure, this slice of absolute silliness was written as a glorious gift for me, personally, but I highly recommend it to anyone who needs something to make them smile. It also now has an accompanying podfic!
stars by the pocketful by @anniemurphys, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 1657 words 
SUMMARY: Twyla is Canada’s Sweetheart, a highly successful singer recording her latest album. Alexis is pop’s bad girl, invited to co-write and record a song for Twyla’s album.
Sparks fly.
Rec [written by doingthemost]: I didn't know I needed Twyla as Taylor Swift until suddenly, we had it. Seriously, if you're at all a Taylor Swift fan or a Twylexis fan—bonus if you're both, of course!—this is the fic for you. It's a pitch perfect AU (pun intended!) and so much fun.
Happy reading, friends!

300 Twylexis Works On AO3: A Retrospective
Tumblr media
(Yes, this is hugely belated, given that we’re currently at 338 works on AO3. 2022 was a bit of a crazy work year for me 😅)
First, what came before this milestone?
The first Twylexis fic, Oh Please, Not Now by in48frames, was published on December 18, 2018, and the one hundredth, all i want is you by @landofsonlali​, was published on January 22, 2021! The two hundredth, ask ‘em my questions and get some answers, was published on July 23, 2021 by @lilythesilly​, and the three hundreth, Selling Schitt’s Creek, was published on March 23, 2022 by @lilythesilly​, @sarahlevys​, @typewritess​, and @nerdframed​!
Check out a bunch of stats, charts, and tag clouds below the cut!
Twylexis Over Time
First, here’s a complete look at Twylexis works through the years, beginning in 2019 and ending at the big 300 mark. (I will be posting a follow-up of Twylexis in 2022 as well!)
Tumblr media
Since our last milestone, it took eight months and 2 days to reach our 300th Twylexis work!
While the fandom slowed down in 2022 alongside a slowdown of the Schitt’s Creek fandom as a whole, we’re still alive and well. Check out how long it took to reach our previous milestones for comparison:
100 works: Achieved after three years, one month, and three days
200 works: Achieved after six months and one day
At 338 works as of January 3, 2023, if we continue at our current pace, we are projected to hit 400 works in May 2024.
Twylexis Creators
In total, 123 unique creators have published 300 Twylexis works, and 63 of those creators published works #201-300; they’re listed below in the word cloud!
Tumblr media
Twylexis Content
Lastly, here are the most common tags used within fics #201-300:
Alternate Universe: 44 times
Post-Canon: 38
Canon Compliant: 23
Twyla Sands: 23
POV Alexis Rose: 19
Podfic: 18
David Rose: 16
And here are all tags for works #201-300, broken out into individual words. You can compare it to the word cloud at the very top, which shows the tags for all works #001-300:
Tumblr media
Here’s to the next hundred fics!
(PS: For those who’ve read my previous installments, I decided to stop analyzing comments, kudos, and hits because to have the most up-to-date data, I’d have to download all works every time—and that’s a bit much for right now 😅)

How about this: https://theunsentproject.com/about
The Unsent Project is a collection of over 500,000 unsent text messages to first loves.
Any pairing. Someone introduces their name on the website and there are lots of messages but some of those are weirdly specific and the protagonist realizes they are for them and that maybe the feelings they once thought were unrequited, were really not.
Oh, my heart! A pining Patrick sending letters out into the void because he can't confess his feelings to David? Who else around town might be harboring a secret crush?
***If you turn this prompt into a fic please tag this account or reblog with your work!***
Thank you, @smblmn, for your prompt!

I don’t know about you all, but I’m struggling to get in the holiday spirit this year. It’s been a rough year for a lot of people, I think. So I thought, why not share some winter/holiday fics and encourage people to do the same? So the rules are simple. Post any (or all) of your fics in any fandom that are set in and around the (northern hemisphere) winter holidays! Or southern hemisphere! I don’t care, just share some nice fics. Then tag some people to keep it going. Hopefully we can all read some new things and enjoy some old faves.
Christmas:
you light me up like starlight [david/patrick, M, 5.8k] - Patrick and his band go home to Schitt’s Creek to play in the annual Christmas concert and David goes with him, but he’s not out to his parents yet. Will be the sequel to indie band Patrick when I finish it lol.
if the fates allow [david/patrick, M, 4k] - the follow up to @blueink3’s beautiful exes stuck in a cabin at Christmas duo that follows the year after their reconciliation. For extra sads, listen to the podfic of the first fic in the series by the incomparable @celeritas2997
wrap me up like your favorite sweater [david/patrick, T, 5k] - Patrick has an accident while putting up some Christmas decorations, so an anxious (and slightly guilty) David rushes him to the hospital.
The Great Schitt's Creek Holiday Bake-Off [david/patrick, T, 16k] - David agrees to participate in the Schitt’s Creek Holiday Bake Off to promote the store. He gets paired with a snippy guy from a local bakery. Contains entirely too much baking related innuendo. Also me of the first SC fics I ever wrote.
Hanukkah:
a new tradition [david/patrick, T, 2.2k] - David and Patrick make latkes together during their first Hanukkah as husbands
Winter:
a marshmallow world [david/patrick, T, 5.8k] - David and Patrick and the hot chocolate advent calendar (and it’s accompanying spreadsheet). This probably goes under Christmas because it’s advent but I do what I want.
the world would make sense again (if i held your hand) [twylexis, T, 2.7k] - Twyla gets over her fear of flying to go visit Alexis in New York for the new year.
Please share your holiday fics @jettestar @alienajackson @rosedavid @indestructibleheart @kiwiana-writes @mostlyinthemorning @rmd-writes @blackandwhiteandrose @hippolotamus @lizzie-bennetdarcy @apothecarose @chelle-68 @beaiola @nontoxic-writes @welcometololaland @vanillahigh00 and anyone else who wants to share!

TWYLA SANDS AND ALEXIS ROSE — in Schitts Creek | “Girls Night”

Tumblr media
We did it, folks. It’s Friday, and we’re rounding out our week with our final selection of works. This year’s Rare Fest comes to a close with themes of friendship, family, and love — much like the show that we’re all here to celebrate. We hope you enjoy them!
Have fun following along this week? Don’t forget to leave a kudos or comment to show our writers your appreciation!
***
Taking Care of David
[Alexis & David, Teen, 5,590]
With Patrick out of town, the last thing David needs is to be stuck in bed with the flu. They've been planning Patrick's attendance at the conference for months, there's no question of him returning to help out. But as chance would have it, Alexis is in town for a couple of weeks and reluctantly, David agrees to let Patrick ask for her help. It isn't like she's going to say 'yes' anyway...
***
Marcy's Girls
[Alexis, Marcy, & Stevie, Teen, 4,464]
Marcy is left alone with Alexis and Stevie after David has to pick Patrick up from a vendor run. Alexis and Stevie both turn to Marcy for relationship advice, and Marcy finds herself to be a substitute mother to the girls.
***
Want S’more
[Patrick/Jake/Mutt, Explicit, 3536]
Patrick goes camping and gets a crash course in survival woodworking.
***
your secret's safe with me
[Ruth/Stevie, Mature, 3,125]
Stevie hates surprises. Truly, there’s nothing she hates more. They make her extremely uncomfortable, and always make her cry, whether or not they’re good surprises. She’s terrible at planning them, too. She’s never been particularly good at keeping secrets, which seems to shock most people.
But somehow, despite all of this, Stevie has ended up dating Ruth who not only likes surprises, but also just informed her that she booked a trip to visit Schitt's Creek for her birthday. So now Stevie has to plan a surprise party for her sophisticated, big city girlfriend in a town that only has one restaurant.
Stevie enlists David's help to plan a surprise party for Ruth. It goes about as well as one would expect.
***
Best Budds
Stevie, G, 2,875]
A pre canon telling of Stevie’s relationship with the Motel over the passage of time and the lifelong effect it bestowed upon them.
***
You Miss 100% of the Tapes You Don't Play
[Patrick & Stevie, Teen, 995]
Patrick and Stevie support one another’s endeavors on two separate occasions.
***
a reason to stay
[Alexis/Twyla, G, 606]
 It isn't like she's never been used, like no one's ever looked at her and seen someone they could discard. It isn't like her family, their voices raised through the mansion as they all pack up their lives, cares about her.
 She shoves things in suitcases. Stavros will get her out of this; Stavros will bring her home.
 Still: when she finds David's stuffie in her closet, she packs it, too.
--
Alexis has packed and unpacked her life countless times—but until Schitt's Creek, she never found a place that made her want to stay.

If you felt like yesterday got you all warmed up, we've got an outstanding Day 2 lined up for you! Time to revel in the holiday cheer!
If you’re following along, check out today’s works on our Google spreadsheet. 
*❄️*
DAY 2 REVEALS
the magic number (is three)
[David/Patrick - E - 36,438]
Paul fucking Shaffer.
He was the reason David was home so early, nervously awaiting the arrival of the new piano player. He’d hoped this rift between Shaffer and his mother was enough to prompt the long overdue retirement of The Number, the gift of yuletide relief. But apparently Moira was taking it as an opportunity to breathe new life into the performance. New pianist, new arrangement, new choreography.
Enter Patrick Brewer.
or, three years of The Number.
*❄️*
you light me up like starlight
[David/Patrick - M - 5,858]
If one thing is for certain, David Rose is not in New York anymore.
Sure, he knew that, but when his boyfriend mentioned that he and his fellow band members, Ted and Twyla, as well as their manager Rachel, were heading back to their Canadian hometown for the annual holiday charity concert, he pictured a charming Toronto suburb, not the middle of fucking nowhere. There are cows out here.
Patrick and his indie band head back to their hometown to perform for the annual holiday charity concert, and David tags along, even though they are still keeping their relationship a secret.
*❄️*
Patrick B. PreK-4.
[David/Patrick, Marcy/Clint - G - 1,987]
David Rose never made crafty ornaments for his Christmas tree as a child. Can Marcy Brewer throw an ornament making night for David?
*❄️*
The Best Things in Life Are Free
[Alexis/Twyla - T - 1,760]
It's the thought that counts, right?
 *❄️*
Subway, Santas and Mild Road Rage
[David/Patrick - T - 2,345]
David and Patrick head to New Jersey for Christmas, and everything goes according to plan. No problems along the way whatsoever.
 *❄️*
Subway, Santas, and Mild Road Rage [podfic]
[David/Patrick - T - 16m:45s]
David and Patrick head to New Jersey for Christmas, and everything goes according to plan. No problems along the way whatsoever. Podfic of the same-titled fic.

Note
for the physical intimacy prompt
linking arms with each other
Ohhhh boy did this not go where I thought it would (but really does it ever???) I hope it works for you! 💙🦛
Alexis isn’t sure if she would say the hour is early or late, considering she had never gone to bed. Now, wrapped in a cozy sweater, linking arms with Stevie and David, it doesn’t feel all that relevant. What does matter is the distinct feeling of bursting and collapsing all at once as they wave until the black SUV fades from view. 
Once, Ted had lovingly smiled at her as she tried to articulate what it would be like to be separated from her family. He said it was what people felt when they miss someone. It’s a stupid term, she thinks. Mom and Dad aren’t missing. Alexis isn’t missing, either. Someone ought to come up with a better word for it. There’s got to be, like, a total girl boss phrase she can use. She makes a mental note to figure it out later. Once she’s had some sleep and Mom’s wigs are packed. 
David and Patrick are speaking softly to each other, foreheads pressed together as if nothing else exists. It reminds Alexis how, as a little girl, she loved watching Cinderella waltz around the castle ballroom in her sparkling white gown, ignoring everyone but the prince. She always hoped to find her own Prince Charming. At least David found his. 
Stevie slips her arm free, and swipes her fingers over her eyes, mumbling about her allergies flaring up. Alexis can’t hide how her lips curve up in a soft, fond smile. She taps the perfectly manicured nails of one hand on the palm of the other, thinking that it’s more than just Mom and Dad being gone that’s bothering her. 
Alexis fixes her gaze across the dusty parking lot, locking onto the bunches of wildflowers blooming there. She feels her smile grow, and her cheeks flush, as she thinks about the night before. The way Twyla wore the daisy Alexis picked for her tucked into her hair. How their fingers laced together so easily and Alexis’s hand sat perfectly, curved around Twyla’s hipbone as they danced to the string quartet playing So This is Love. How David’s words about never liking a smile as much as Patrick’s echoed in her mind when Twyla fell asleep on her shoulder at the end of the night. They were both tired, and a little tipsy, when Alexis asked Ray to drive Twyla home so she would get there safely. Even with the ache in her chest, and the lingering impression of Twyla’s fingers skimming her bare shoulder, Alexis couldn’t take advantage of that fragile moment. But maybe–
“I have to go,” Alexis touches David’s shoulder, to make sure he’s semi-aware that she’s intentionally gone. She's 87% certain he doesn't notice, but Stevie gives her a knowing look when Alexis gathers the silky fabric of her dress in her fist and begins a hurried walk to town. She ignores the voices of various townies saying good morning and wanting to pass congratulations on to her brothers. She edges past a customer leaving the café as she slips inside, only to find George at the counter. 
“Oh,” she says softly, wondering if she’s making a mistake. Standing in the middle of the café, among the cracked vinyl booths and oversized menus, the romantic notion she had in her mind is replaced with anxiety and doubt. She turns on her heel to leave when she hears it. 
“Alexis!” comes the sunny voice she would know anywhere by now, followed by a hand on her shoulder. 
She turns to see Twyla, still looking sleepy, with traces of last night’s makeup on her face. “Twyla,” Alexis swallows, nervous. “Hi.”
Twyla scrunches her nose, never losing her rosy smile. “Is… everything okay?” 
“Yeah! Yes!” Alexis sucks in a breath. “I… last night was real. Right?” 
“Yes? Alexis, what’s going on?” 
With trembling hands, Alexis cups Twyla’s face, sweeping her thumbs over her cheekbones. “Can I-?”
The rest of her question is lost as Twyla’s lips meet hers. Despite being in the center of the café, with everyone watching, Alexis can’t bring herself to care. They separate, a negligible amount of space between them. Twyla slips her arms under Alexis’s, twisting them around so her hands rest on top. 
“Twyla, last night I wanted-”
“I know. Me too. But you’re here now.”
“I am. Have breakfast with me?” 
“I’ll make you a smoothie.” 
“Thanks, Twy,” Alexis leans in, beaming and kissing Twyla again, just because she can. They remain there, longer than they probably should, wrapped up in only each other. Somewhere in the back of her mind, Alexis hears the echo of violins and Ilene Woods singing so this is what makes life divine…

Rare & Gen Rec Round-Up - January & February 2023
Hello friends and welcome! We hope 2023 has been treating you all well. It’s certainly been treating AO3 well. There have been so many great fics and we’re excited to share our favorites with you. So, make sure you grab a snack, your favorite blanket, and show these fics some love. 
at every table i’ll save you a seat by @nerdframed, Stevie/Ruth, rated T, 2,082 words
SUMMARY: Stevie didn't think Ruth knowing how she takes her coffee would mean so much, as well as other realizations.
Rec [written by hullomoon]: The unspoken way a partner learns little details about you is something that makes me 🤧 Woven throughout their travels, this is a perfect Stevie/Ruth fic.
Auld Acquaintance by @treepyful, Stevie/Ruth, rated T, 2840 words
SUMMARY: Ruth gets separated from her friends on NYE, but the night manages to go up from there.
Rec [written by doingthemost]: Okay, I might be biased, since this was written for me, but I love that this fic puts Stevie and Ruth into situations and tropes that we don't usually see for them. It's a breath of fresh air for these two, and the momentum towards the end is so fun!
a decision not taken by @alysiswriting, Patrick/Rachel, rated G, 775 words
SUMMARY: If Patrick had made a very different decision, and put the happiness of others before his own.
Rec [written by doingthemost]: Thank goodness for the "alternate universe" tag on this one! This ficlet is gut-wrenching, but also so wonderfully done at the same time.
Gentleness by @alysiswriting, Stevie/Twyla, rated E, 1,037 words
SUMMARY: Stevie wants Twyla. In every tender, gentle way her girlfriend gives her. Something Stevie had never expected, and now something she would not be without.
Rec [written by hullomoon]: Soft and sensual, if you love one partner gently worshipping the other this fic is for you.
She said I got her if I want (she’s so soft like silk chiffon) by Fuckingkity, Stevie/Alexis, rated M, 1,350 words
SUMMARY: After David and Patrick’s wedding, Stevie and Alexis spend the night together. Wink wink nudge nudge
Rec [written by hullomoon]: I am so here for the headcanon that Stevie and Alexis hook up at David and Patrick’s wedding. Stevie’s confession is well-done here and makes her first kiss with Alexis so satisfying.
where you go (forever and ever) by @anniemurphys, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 2489 words
SUMMARY: On a January weekend, as a storm rolls in, Alexis Rose rolls into Schitt’s Creek too, much to Twyla’s surprise.
Rec [written by doingthemost]: I love the childhood friends trope, and we don't have enough of it in this corner of the Schitt's Creek fandom! This is such a fun take on Alexis and Twyla, haunting and moody and full of a quiet, hopeful optimism all at the same time.
you spoke to me so sweetly by @hippolotamus, Alexis/Twyla, rated E, 2653 words
SUMMARY: Alexis hums her appreciation, letting her eyes fall closed while Twyla repeats the circuitous route, and breathing in the blend of lavender and lemon oil her wife insisted upon for “calm and good luck”. The temporary serenity only lasts for three or four passes until a light knock at the door interrupts. She doesn’t try to hide her instant pout when the gentle pressure disappears and she’s forced to open her eyes again.
Dr. Rist breezes inside, far too perky in Alexis’s opinion. Perhaps it’s a good sign. Despite her nerves, Alexis plasters her PR smile on, and clasps Twyla’s hand – the only tell she’ll allow to indicate she’s worried while they wait to find out what kind of life changing the appointment will be.
“Well,” Dr. Rist says. “Alexis. Twyla. Sorry to keep you waiting. Let’s begin, shall we?”
Rec [written by doingthemost]: Mind the tags on this one, as there's some medical angst a fair amount of hurt/comfort, but if you want to feel warm and taken care of just like Alexis and Twyla take care of each other in this beautiful lil' fic, look no further. 
Happy reading, friends!
