Fic title – Hit Me With Your Best Shot (sorry, I have no originality and couldn’t think of my own – so you get a song title instead)

Hmmmm. Dreamhunter Roller Derby AU

Claire and Kaia are rivals on opposing derby teams, but more than that, Kaia is convinced Claire hates her guts. She’s so damn aggressive on the rink, constantly seeking Kaia out, even when her team mates are definitely more of a threat. However, when Claire finally pushes too far and causes an accident that leaves Kaia with a broken ankle, she makes it her mission to look after Kaia and aid her recovery. Kaia finds that there’s more than meets the eye to this messy, angry person she’s forged a rivalry with, and maybe, just maybe, they don’t have to be enemies anymore. 

Send me a title, I’ll tell you what I’d write!

Do you have any headcanons about Kaia and Claire? I still can’t get over them and how much I love them!

😀 Oh anon I totally do! And I’ve been thinking about them a lot, too. Here are some of my headcanons. 

Kaia obviously hates sleeping and avoids it as long as possible. It isn’t until she’s about to pass out that she lets herself fall asleep. Claire promises to watch over her while she sleeps. Kaia isn’t sure what she could actually do to help but somehow it kind of does? She still dream walks pretty often, but Claire is there to wake her up before it gets too bad. 

The have breakfast together a lot. Of course, it’s never at proper breakfast time because Kaia’s sleep schedule is totally screwed and Claire tends to come back from hunts in the middle of the night but it’s never to late/early for waffles. 

Claire has four different leather jackets hanging in her closet. Kaia “borrowed” one because it was a little too cold for just her hoodie and thought Claire noticed she didn’t say anything. (And yeah, it smells like Claire’s perfume so maybe Kaia wears it a little more often than just when it’s cold out.) 

Claire is a french fry stealer but she only does it when she knows Kaia is paying attention b/c she wants a reaction more than anything. Kaia frowns and Claire just smirks at her. 

Their first kiss is completely on accident. Claire is leaving and they both go in for a hug at the wrong angle and they wind up brushing lips. Claire is actually the one who stutters and fumbles a bit and apologizes all over.
