Nixie’s MF Month: Day One, Marcos x Caitlin - Wedding AU. 

“Shouldn’t you be getting ready?”

Jumping in surprise, Caitlin turns her head, lips already lifting up into a smile as she spots Marcos leaning against the door frame. 

“I’m just finishing up a few emails to family and the hospital,” she answers as she turns back to her laptop. “I wanna get this done before I head out.”

Chuckling, Marcos pushes off, he shuffles further into the office until he gets behind her, and leans down as he wraps his arms loosely underneath hers. “Excited?”

Leaning back, Caitlin hums, “I’m looking forward to spending time with Lauren and the girls, with no emergency's or distractions,” shifting slightly, she turns her head enough to press a quick kiss to his chin. “But more looking forward to Sunday.”

How dare you!! So rude girl, so rude!! 

Ugh. Hmmmmmm…..after some though, I’m gonna go with MarcCaitlin, since I haven’t done much with them lately.

Okay, so I’m seeing Marcos as a vampire, centuries old and finally broken away from a nest that was just evil and he’s starting anew in a fresh city, in a different state and as far from his old life as he can make it.

He gets a job working in a hospital, and there he meets Caitlin, divorced single mother of two and he finds her….frustrating and refreshing, he reminds her of his ex-wife, Lorna. 

He finds himself wanting to know more about her life, to know about her. 

And everything is going well…..until his old nest finds him and reeks havoc on his life. 

Starting by taking Caitlin.

I love both of these AU’s SO MUCH!! Ahhhh! Why would you make me choose between them?!?! I’m gonna go with fake/pretend on this though.

Like, okay so imagine its a non power AU, Caitlin and Reed are divorced at, its not a bad one but it wasn’t that great either, so its hella awkward whenever they have to be in the same room together.

And Marcos is a single father, who works on the weekends tutoring for extra cash, and works with Andy, and he and Caitlin are friends (its a slow processes with a lot of moments where they both mess up but they work through it) so they’re mostly friends (who are totally crushing on each other but refuse to admit it).

And then Lauren one day after months of them all getting to know each other and Caitlin and Marcos falling for each other, announces that Reed bringing his new (*cough*younger*couch*) girlfriend around for Lauren’s birthday. Which Caitlin so much isn’t worried until Laurel (who is definitely trying to manipulate her mother here) makes a offhanded comment about seeming to be stuck on Reed, which sends Caitlin into a tail spin and she in a moment of panic asks Marcos to be her date.

Its super awkward, with Lauren and Andy doing their level best to try and get Marcos and their mom to admit feelings, but somehow after the worst dinner in history, they do confess and agree to try dating for real.

Nixie’s Rare Pair AU Challenge, Day Thirty Five: Marcos x Caitlin - Zombie AU.

“You should’ve come to see me right away, Marcos.” Caitlin’s brow was furrowed in concentration as she carefully cleaned the jagged cut on the man’s left leg.

Marcos’ lips twitched up, into a half smirking smile as he watched the woman. Despite the frustration and worry swimming in her eyes, Caitlin’s hands were nothing but gentle and steady as she carefully tended to the wound. “Needed to get the fence reinforced.”

Caitlin had originally gone to college so that she could study medicine but somehow she’d accidentally been put in a pre-law class by mistake. She found it exciting. She never looked back and went on to make law school her bitch.

She spends a few years working in the DA’s office but is burnt out with watching good people get screwed by the system and corruption go on checked (even in her own office), so she instead gets herself into a more private practice because at least there she knows what she’ll be dealing with.

They first meet when Caitlin guest lectures at her former college, Marcos  is a little shit but is also the first person since she divorced her husband, Reed, to make her genuinely laugh. And he’s also one of a handful to ask real, legitimate questions, so Caitlin gives him and the others an email to contact her at, if they have any more questions or concerns regarding their futures.

And that’s how they keep in contact for years, through Marcos finishing up law school, getting married and divorced, through his daughter being born, and her kids growing into teens. So its only a little awkward because they know each other but haven’t seen one another in years, when Marcos comes in for an interview with her firm.

It takes a bit but they settle into a their friendship eventually and it builds up to more slowly over his first and second years their before they finally admit they’re in love with each other.

10: What sort of seasonal treats does your OTP like to eat? Cookies. They love eating cookies during the seasons. Marcos makes ones that are similar to the ones his family made, the first few times he made them it was difficult because of the memories attached but eventually it got easier. Caitlin’s family has been making the same butter cookies since her great-grandmother was a girl, so she shares that with Marcos.

13: Who tries to get a secret gift for the other one for Valentine’s Day? Marcos does but Caitlin has more time on her hands, so she usually is the one cleaning up their room and finds them. Marcos though has learned from this and has begun hiding his gifts in John and Clarice’s room.

15: Which one gets more excited over the first snow of winter? Caitlin does. She loves getting to snuggle up with Marcos and she knows the minute snow starts falling, they’ll be spending a lot more time snuggled up with each other(barring the fact their lives don’t get in the way first of course.)

For @asexual-fandom-queen, Marcos x Caitlin, Spy/Undercover Agent AU.

"This is what you DO?" Caitlin barely got out before letting out a scream as she jerked the steering wheel towards the left in an attempt to avoid the bullets being shot at them.
