    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” Zoey cut in meekly. “I’m just trying to understand—”

    Rumi whirled to face her, and she flinched back. “I’ve explained this to you before. We have insects that are pests and we have insects that are beneficial. If we let the pests live, they do damage, so we kill them. It doesn’t matter if it’s alive—all of them are alive, but some of them need to die.”

    A study of Rumi and bugs.

    Summary

    This is what happened: years ago, Mira and Zoey had someone, and then they lost her.

    It happens, sometimes.

    People disappear.

    But years ago, Mira and Zoey had someone, and then they lost her. Then, they thought that they might have found her again – because Rumi was everything they once had, because she was the third hunter, because her soul was bound to theirs like they were to each other.

    They never asked, in the end.

    What had happened that made the other woman slip away like she did.

    But it never did feel completely right, after, despite everything. Because Rumi was there but she also wasn’t, because she laughed and joked with them but never quite fully, because she would lean into their touch sometimes and then shrink away from it the next moment. Because she had walls all around her, and rarely, if ever, took them down.

     

    Rumi had always been scared of something.

    – .˳·˖✶𓆩𓁺𓆪✶˖·˳. –

    (Or: the bond between the hunters tells them of each others emotions, each others pain. Rumi, naturally, decides that her sins are hers alone to carry, that she cannot burden the other two with them. But such secrets rarely stay hidden.)

    Summary

    Everything is glowing and glittering and golden for a moment. Then, of course, something in the air shifts.

    or, the awkwardness of becoming something together before you really understand what together means.

    Summary

    “The good and the bad, pretty or ugly”, Celine had told her. Everything she feels, to put it on music.

    It’s a language she spoke so easily, of course she had tried it before. Zoey is not the only one with notebooks full of scattered lyrics, just waiting to be added to a melody and turned into a song.

    Rumi is just not sure how ready she is, herself, to look her feelings in the face and claim them so publicly.

    She doesn’t have to release whatever she makes, not necessarily. But what is music for, if not for sharing?

    And after she already dropped one song. What are a few more?
