Roomates!AU. Friends to lovers. Rom-Com Vibes. AH/AU Klaus is having a bad month, so Caroline decides it's a great idea to drag him along to a round of Speed Dating. Other men in the room do not approve. (That's how it starts, anyway) --

Caroline doesn't see Elijah again for the next two days. Whatever has brought him to town, he either glides through the apartment like a ghost or their schedules are totally at odds. If not for the extravagantly tailored wool coat hanging by the door and what Caroline has quickly learned is a very distinctive brand of grumpiness on Klaus, she might have thought he'd already left.

Fate seems to be sparing her the embarrassment of coming face to face with him again after that first encounter, and it's probably for the best. But curiosity gnaws at her like an unscratchable itch. Elijah has intrigued her for years, far more than any of Klaus' other siblings. Finally putting a face - well, a little more than a face - to the name was satisfying, but it has fueled her desire to know more.

The Mikaelsons carry an enigmatic allure, a heady mix of glamor and mystery that is equal parts magnetic and intimidating. Despite living with one and being friends with another, the family remains a riddle to Caroline. The more she learns, the murkier it gets. It's maddening. Nothing about them makes sense. Caroline can't even decide if they have a deep dislike for each other or love one another to unhealthy degrees.

After two days, though, she's just about lost hope of bumping into Elijah again. She doubts he'll be staying for much longer, especially with Klaus' cordial show of hospitality. Not that Elijah seemed bothered - being caustic to siblings for no apparent reason seems to be one of those things that are normal by Mikaelson standards. It's just how they operate.

She is mindlessly scrolling through Instagram after yet another grueling shift at the hospital, waiting for the microwave to deliver her sad leftover dinner. Her feed is embarrassingly weak. It's been ages since she even posted anything new. Her last photo was taken on a night out with Tyler, for crying out loud. Should she even keep it there? What's the proper etiquette for when you break up with someone for no earth-shattering reasons, the relationship just fizzling out and running its course? Is it rude to delete all evidence of him from her social media? Is it expected? Would he even care?

Has he deleted her from his feed?

Come to think of it... Is Tyler even seeing anyone? Read the final chapter here

Maybe you confused this account with another. Anyway sorry to disappoint. Go watch my edits though ❤️

Summary: Five years after the downfall of the Mikaelson family, Caroline returns to New Orleans to fulfill the promise she made to Marcel: one day, she would be back for the man he has been keeping prisoner in the bowels of the old compound, and she would not be leaving without him. But the plans to abandon the city's eternal loop of tragedy behind once and for all are thwarted when a new enemy with unexpected old ties resurfaces, threatening not just Eve's life, but Caroline's as well.

S04E01 Gather Up the Killers ✨

The thing about finally getting something you longed for what feels like an eternity is the accompanying dread that it might be taken away.

Even after five years, Marcel is still not used to having it. Peace.

Nobody tells you how unsettling peace is. How it manifests as a constant nagging in the back of your mind, like you're forgetting something, getting soft, letting your guard down. It's quiet and harmonious, yes, but it's also a kind of fear. A cold shudder at the pit of your stomach, as though at any second it can all be snatched away from you.

If he doesn't watch himself, it can easily descend into paranoia.

He doesn't think there has been a single day where he hasn't been on full alert mode, looking over his shoulder, watching over the city from his not-so-new penthouse like a vigilante, waiting for the monsters to come out. And then he remembers that there are no monsters anymore. None greater than him, anyway. He is the thing that everybody fears.

He's always tiptoeing around that delicate line separating caution from madness, one sudden move around a corner away from overreaction that could send all the hard-earned balance they've achieved blown into the air.

One wrong move from turning into him.

-- Took forever and a day, but ta-da! Starting part 4 was so much harder than I thought, but well. Here is something! Like I said, I'm not starting a new AO3 story for this, it'll be [22/34] there, but for the sake of being clearer here, I'm using the S4 numbers and a new summary.

Summary: Months after their return to New Orleans, Klaus and Caroline try to settle into a semblance of normalcy, while Elijah struggles to forgive his brother's sins. But a mysterious prophecy that foretells the downfall of the Mikaelson family brings them all together in a war that will reopen ancient wounds and see each of the siblings doomed: one by friend, one by foe and one by family.

[It's The Originals Season 3, but Caroline had Klaus' baby, now she's a vampire and they are back in New Orleans after a stint in Mystic Falls. It's mostly about Klaroline, obviously.]

Read S03E18 No More Heartbreaks ✨ here

Sorry for the delayed update, sometimes RL gets in the way. I honestly don't know what to do with these update posts anymore, so here. 🥲 Please, mind the authors note.

Summary: Caroline wakes up in a world where everything looks exactly the same, only nothing really is. For starters, she's no longer a vampire, and no one else in Mystic Falls has ever heard of witches, vampires or werewolves - no one except for Klaus, who woke up just as human and twice as angry about it. Their search for answers and a way out takes them all the way to New Orleans, and Caroline could never anticipate how much this crazy fake world was about to alter her reality forever.

[Canon!AU. Set right after TVD 4x18.]

Chapter 1: Rewrite

She stares in complete shock as the blood starts gushing out, her palm quickly covered in red, dripping onto the island and then on the floor until soon her kitchen looks like the set of a low-budget slasher movie. An entire minute goes by and the blood just keeps on coming out, the gash on her hand wide open.

In some distant corner of her brain, she registers the throbbing pain, intensifying by the second, but she can barely feel it over the dizziness that sweeps her over.

It's not the blood loss, though. It's comprehension. Confirmation.

She's going to be sick.

"Caroline?" she hears her mother's voice. It sounds as though it's coming from a different dimension, but it's just the other room. She didn't even hear the front door. Because you don't have super hearing anymore, a tiny voice whispers in the back of her head. "I saw your car outside, sweetie. Shouldn't you be at school?"

She presses her lips tightly together, trying to hold back the tears.

"Caro -"

Liz stops frozen when she walks into the kitchen, eyes bulging in shock as she takes in the scene before her. Caroline, with a knife, standing in a pool of her own blood.

In a second, Sheriff Forbes is next to her, prying the knife out of her tight grip, then grabbing a hold of her wounded hand. “God, Caroline…” She shoves her hand under the cold running water. Caroline hisses. "How did this happen?"

"Mom..." she says in a small, pleading voice, waiting until Liz looks up to meet her eyes. "My hand... It's not healing."

"It looks very bad, sweetie. You might need stitches."

Caroline breaks into a sob. Everything about her mother looks real - her delicate touch, the worried lines across her forehead, the compassion in her voice. Even her perfume is the same. But, just like Bonnie and Elena before, she doesn't seem to get it.

-- Guess who's back from the seventh circle of hell? 🥲 Everyone goes through a comeback phase, I guess this is mine. 🤷‍

I never got over how beautiful this cover art is! Reminds me so much of old school KC fandom. ❤️ It was made by the super talented @deadalien, I hope she's still ok with me using it.

So this is actually the first KC I ever wrote, way back in 2018. It's gone through considerable rewriting, but it's the same story. I just wanted to shove them together into uncomfortable situations and force Caroline out of denial. 🤷‍ I guess I still very much enjoy that trope, five years later.

Summary: Months after their return to New Orleans, Klaus and Caroline try to settle into a semblance of normalcy, while Elijah struggles to forgive his brother's sins. But a mysterious prophecy that foretells the downfall of the Mikaelson family brings them all together in a war that will reopen ancient wounds and see each of the siblings doomed: one by friend, one by foe and one by family.
