Summary
“I asked Celine to kill me.”
Rumi doesn’t know what compelled her to say that. The sound of chopsticks clattering to the floor, though, stokes an immediate regret that urges her to get up and run.

Summary
Rumi hadn’t meant to cause such a scene. She just wasn’t thinking straight.
Celine had told her Zoey and Mira would kill her if they found out what she was, and Rumi had come to the conclusion that she was probably right.
Her plan, as tenuous a description as that word was, was to cut the patterns out. If she could cut out the parts of her that made her dangerous, that made her less than human, that made her so unloveable, maybe she’d stop feeling so fucking guilty every time Mira or Zoey opened up to her.
They loved each other from the start, but it just wasn't that simple.

Summary
It didn’t have to mean that she and Yukiko were…like that, what they did. Not necessarily.
Maybe the fumes in Kanji’s bathhouse had just gotten to them, spending so many hours in there fighting and sweating. They’d been tired, and sore, and Chie had eaten too much at Aiya, and hadn’t wanted to walk home after she dropped Yukiko off at the inn, and when they’d gotten under the covers together, maybe all those factors had just come together and gotten a little messy and –
Chie stands up and busies herself trying to find her jacket and her socks. Maybe it had been nothing but them both being tired and addled from spending too long in the TV.
When Yukiko comes out of the shower, Chie thinks, they’ll talk about it.
--
After saving Kanji from the TV, Chie and Yukiko’s relationship goes in a significantly different direction than either of them expected. Turns out that just facing your Shadow isn’t enough to resolve all your issues – the rest have to be unpacked, one by one, piece by piece.Bookmarked by BerryBushel

A Tale As Old As Time by eternalnslaught, LootnScootn

Summary
There was a princess.
There is a beast.
Nine years after Honmoon Palace fell to a mysterious foe, Kang Mira and Choi Zoey live under the ruthless thumb of the Kang merchant family risen to power with the absence of the ruling Ryu Clan. Zoey, the sweet half-blooded outsider, and Mira, the headstrong and wayward daughter of the Kangs, escape Honmoon Village in fire and blood to leave behind the cold venom of cruel words and coerced obligations. They flee for the ruins of Honmoon Palace, hoping the tales of ghosts and other unearthly creatures will be enough to deter their angry pursuers.
They don't expect the rumours to hold a grain of truth in them. A terrifying beast roams the palace grounds—the very one alleged to have brought an end to the Ryu line—but it doesn't attack or chase them away. Surrounded by strange magic and a cagey beast, Zoey and Mira plot their next move and ready to leave.
And the Beast will let them. She must.
For who could ever love a beast?
Based on Disney's Beauty and the Beast (1991).

Summary
Zoey opened her eyes to a familiar face. Mira was in front of her, snoring softly, one arm draped loosely around her waist. She smiled, already sinking back into the warmth of sleep. But as she shifted slightly, she became very aware of another body pressed against her back.
She sat up quickly, freaking out. Rumi was there too. Panic prickled at the edge of her thoughts as fragments from the night before slammed into her. The taste of alcohol and bile rose up her throat. She kissed Rumi, Mira also kissed Rumi. And everything’s fine, she reasoned. They’re laying down together in their bed the next morning, and they all kissed, and it’s fine.
Zoey threw up in the bathroom.
They didn’t know they were dating/college AU

Summary
Slowly, she put the evoker to her temple, thinking back on Ikutsuki’s explanation of the persona, summoned by this gun-shaped tool.
Without further hesitation, she pulled the trigger, the sound of shattered glass echoing all around her as an incredible rush of power consumed her entire being. She looked down on all the others ("afraid, they are so afraid, why?"), feeling like a queen towering over ants, long-forgotten memories bubbling beneath the surface of her infinite mind, before one thought enveloped her soul.
"Go back. Please, stop thinking. Not yet."
Or, the girl named Kotone Shiomi is more than she appears to be. Join her on her journey of self-discovery, unlocking memories that perhaps were better left forgotten.

Summary
Rumi wakes one morning to find new glowing purple patterns spreading across her body—marks she sees as proof that she’s a monster.
Though she hides them from her roommates, the shame and self-loathing overwhelm her. Haunted by a harsh inner voice and past conditioning, Rumi spirals into the darkest pits of her mind.
She doesn't belong in this world. Her very existence is a mistake.

Summary
So mostly it seems like Rumi’s doing well. She wears her patterns openly, almost defiantly. She stops locking herself away in her room. When she wakes in the middle of the night, breathless and panicked from haunting dreams, she lets Zoey find her and guide her to Mira’s room so they can all crawl into bed together, Rumi sandwiched in the middle.
But there are some moments when she loses herself a little, when Zoey can see her teeth clench and her eyes glaze over. Moments when her breath shakes, and she presses her nails so deep into her palms that they come away bloody.
She won't talk to them when it happens.
(After the Honmoon is sealed, Rumi seeks out Celine one last time.)

Summary
Zoey’s eyes shone with expectation, a flush rising to her cheeks. "Mira?" Her voice was soft, anxious.
The spell shattered. Mira let go of Zoey's wrist as if burned, her heart hammering wildly against her ribs. "Have a good trip, Zoey," she managed to say, her voice hoarse, avoiding eye contact. "Have fun."
Zoey lingered for another moment, her breath slightly uneven. "I... I will," she said, her voice trembling. "I'll have a lot of fun. Thanks, Mira."
or
Zoey goes away for a few months during the Huntrix hiatus, while Mira is alone. She is sad, insecure, misses Zoey, and jealous.
But Zoey comes home.

Summary
At first, no one sees it coming. But they should have.
They don’t think it’s Rumi at first. Because they just saw Bobby turn into one of those ugly creatures to get them away from the stage, to intervene with the most important performance of their lives. Who is to say that this thing in front of them isn’t playing the same trick? To break and tarnish their name, make their distrust real, create ripples in their bond like they do to the Honmoon?
But it isn’t a fake. God, how could it be when her desperation is so real? When it speaks in her voice so authentic that it couldn’t be anyone else? When the things she says inspires confusion and heartbreak?
Yet through it all, the Honmoon wails, and cries, and begs—a warning of the impending devastation, all at the mercy of Rumi’s voice.
What are they to think?

or, an alternative ending to the backstage scene, where Gwi-ma can take over any demon's body that's under his control. Rumi becomes a martyr.

Summary
You’ve read far too much about love to allow yourself to make such a careless mistake. You know all about how it sneaks up on you. How one day it’s hardly much of anything, how the next it becomes bright and loud and too much. You know that better than anyone. You’ve read thousands of iterations of it, thousands of admissions, thousands of hastily scrawled out pleas to understand that you must understand, I could have never seen this coming.
You consider love, hate, indifference. You turn over words in your mind until they sound wrong and removed. You do this with love until you can stand to hear it echoed in your own thoughts.
(When you realise you love her, you’ll plead to yourself in the mirror. You must understand, you’ll beg, I could have never seen this coming.)
(or, a story about love, hate, truths, and what it means to be and love a monster)

Zoey and Mira work. That's a fact. You look at them, and it makes sense. They'll be the first to tell you this. It feels right.
But then there's Rumi.Dorky, awkward, gentle, and mysterious Rumi.
She makes sense too. She's always made sense.
Yet everything around them points in the direction of chaos. Unpredictability. Can they make it work? Or is it just another thing they can't solve.
Or, the three body problem but make it gay.
