Fics like Dancing with the Fireflies

(Set post-canon/after Panic...starting around a month after the finale episode. My one-shot "Love Is Patient, Love Is Kind" is the prequel to this if you'd like to read it. But doing so is *not* necessary to enjoy this fic!) Heather finds out her mom is pregnant again, this time by that jerk Bo, and their already strained relationship all but crumbles. Fortunately, she and Lily have a good support system and she finds comfort with her friends and (of course!) Ray, as well as in her writing. Though she doesn't understand why (or where) it all went so wrong, she tries to remain hopeful that eventually, she and her little sister will not only reconcile with their mother, but finally get to experience life as a (semi?) normal family … because is that *really* SO much for a girl to ask???!!! a.k.a. lots of Ray x Heather (and Lilybug) fluff and a generous helping of family drama; there is also a Dodge x Natalie storyline but it's more background and kind of woven throughout (MULTIPLE CHARACTER POVs).
