Smoldering Light is … well… smoldering. In the works, hoping to finish up soon. Here’s a preview. #Station19

L: *hands on hips, pointing at a helmet* That's not where that goes. Mom says helmets belong on the rack 🤨

A: Got it, boss🫡😂

L: *tugs on a hose* Did you check this for leaks? Very important

V: *whispering to Maya* You've created a tiny fire captain

M: 😁😁He's just thorough

The station used to love when Maya or Carina would drop in w/ the babies. But as Liam hit walking/talking age, he quickly fell into the mini Maya phase. He corrects people on fire facts, how to load gear and will test their oxygen tanks for them #Station19

Happy Wednesday! A new one-shot is up titled Hazy Hell😬🔥
Diving into “what if Carina hadn’t gotten pregnant the first time?”
There’s pain and softness and dumb dumb Maya and angry Carina and a drooly adorable Liam

M: and then I was thinking we could take the kids to the lake. dip into savings

C: orrrr we could get our own cabin and invite your mom and she can watch them🤷‍♀️

M: that’s not cost effective, Carina-

C: I know you’d pay any price for this, Bambina😏😏

M: I- what? Oh? That could fit in the budget…😳🤔

No matter how tough Maya acts, Carina can make her flustered with just one look. A wink, a raised eyebrow, or a soft “amore” in that lilting tone is all it takes. Maya turns red, stumbles over her words, and Carina always laughs, knowing exactly the power she holds. #Station19

Welp, looks like I should start full time posting here. Gonna re-post my latest chapter to tide you over until this one shot I’m writing reaches the edit bay

Has anybody told user @ dsavre that we moved over here?? I have full faith Stef will join if she wants… but Danielle 😬

C: *half-asleep on the couch, mumbles* Amore, il... blanket... troppo... caldo, but... più comfy

M:😦

L: 😆 She said the blanket’s too hot, but she still likes it

M:🥰Va bene, amore. Blanket stays

Carina smiles sleepily, snuggling back into Maya’s lap, murmuring something else only Liam understands

When Carina is especially sleepy, she slurs her words into an Italian-English mix that baffles almost everyone. Sometimes Liam has to translate for Maya, as he always understands. Maya secretly loves it and always whispers back in broken Italian just to make her smile. #Station19

No thoughts, head empty.

Just Carina in brush gear. #Station19

Okay DeLuca-Bishop wives is the hottest era but the obsessed giddy girlfriend phase is criminally underrated. Imagine getting the deep dive into Maya shifting from serial bachelor to heart eyes & constant post-orgasmic haze, and Carina in her cocky, I’ve got her whipped energy😵‍💫 #Station19

L: *delivers espresso in bed*
C:🤨

L: *whispers in Maya's ear*

M: YOU'RE ON. BABE, GET UP WE ARE GOING HIKING😤

M: Mr. Cocky over here thinks he can beat me up the trail!

C: I did not consent to this!

A: 😆I packed the snacks mama get dressed

C: what kind of snacks?😒

The kids learn that their parents can be swayed.
Carina will agree to just about anything w/ the promise of snacks or espresso. Maya can be manipulated by competition. "Bet you can't" is her downfall.

Andrea is the mastermind, Liam is the execution #Station19

M: Cap, can I cut out? Carina's upset & lost a patient

A: 🤨you got mind reading powers again? we've been on calls. How do you know?

M: *shrugs* Carina always stress bakes and I started craving cookies suddenly

A: you're free to go- if I get to see my babies and you deliver cookies

M: 🫡deal!

Maya may not always show it, but she's deeply intuitive about others' feelings. She picks up on every subtle shift in tone, quietly carrying the weight. But when Carina is upset, it cuts her even deeper. She'll sense it even when they aren't together

C:😂Liam! You can't eat them yet!

A:*yanks entire basil plant* I'm the best gardener Mama!

C:*snaps photo to Maya* you are! Let's save some for dinner, ok?

L:*munching on basil leaf* oops😬

M:*@ work* look at my farmers!

C: we have one less basil plant but happy kiddos!

Carina had a small herb garden in the window which eventually blossomed into an entire raised bed of fresh herbs that she uses to cook with. She sings to them in Italian every morning while she waters them, a little way to stay connected to her roots. #Station19

C: 🥱they're getting bad again aren't they?

M: *nods, looking in Andrea's bedroom*

C: you've been stressed *wraps in blanket, hugs* come back to bed. They are safe. They know that you protect them

M: i- I hate having to leave them…

C: *kisses shoulder* I'll watch with you then

Maya hides her nightmares when they're getting bad. Carina feels her sneak out of bed, finding her leaning in the doorway of the kids bedrooms, watching them sleep. Carina wraps her in a blanket and stays until Maya feels safe enough to come back to bed.

C: *tracing Maya’s collarbone*

M: Fell through a roof. Thought Andy had my rope, didn’t stick the landing

C:😨Bambina! You’re lucky you didn’t break anything!

M:😬

C: 🙄 a liability

M: Hazing is common in the academy & they wrapped me in bubble wrap while I was asleep once..

Carina loves tracing Maya’s scars when laying in bed. She knows each one by heart, and it’s her quiet way of reminding Maya how much she admires her strength.

Maya will often explain the story of each one, rambling on and on in her fire nerd way #Station19

Welp, AO3 is down but if you're desperate for the next chapter of Smoldering Light, it's live on Wattpad. It's a pretty long one, and rather intense. Brooding, cranky Maya is here #Station19

M: *walks in, wide-eyed* Babe, it's September 1st. It looks like autumn exploded

C: *lighting another candle* oh yes, it did. I am growing pumpkins in the garden

M: smells like a bakery in here!

C: *shoves pumpkin muffin into her mouth*

M: omgtheseareamazingineedseven🤤

C:😏

Carina absolutely adores fall. It means more cozy nights in w/ Maya, spending time being close and warm together, and more excuses to bake. She fills the house with autumn candles and bakes pumpkin-flavored treats for Maya, who secretly enjoys it🍂🎃#Station19

V: *peeks into Maya's bunk* Wait, is that... Italian love songs? Maya Bishop has a romantic side?!

M: 😳it's for language practice, Vic

V: totally normal to tear up when learning a language. You're so soft. Does Carina know this?

M: *throws pillow* NO! And you will NOT tell her!😤
