Cleopatra's Needle (Gomez/Morticia | G | 2,827 words): Morticia is more interested in gardening than suitors. I really enjoyed this look at Morticia and her garden and how Gomez starts to woo her through this interest.

"What does that have to do with gardens?" Morticia reopened her shears with a violent jerk of her arms. When their blades, slick with sap and crushed leaves, pulled apart, they made a sound that was not unlike the squelch of living muscle being ripped from bone. Ever since her sister had turned seventeen, she was interested in the most ridiculous pastimes.
