Fics like Hard Times in the World of Women

Lauren Bacall is just a librarian living in a boarding home with an eccentric group of people trying to survive the Great Depression. She wishes Dorothy Malone, an infuriatingly smug, callous, airheaded woman would just leave her be. But when Dorothy reveals a softer side, Lauren's emotions begin to tumble out of control. Or; I saw a photo of Lauren Bacall and Dorothy Malone in "Written on the Wind" (1956) and instantly needed to write something insanely out-of-character where Lauren Bacall is a repressed lesbian bottom who's had enough of Dorothy's smug vampy attitude, but turns out it's just sexual frustration. Featuring a few random modern-day people I threw in for fun.
