Summary
Mira destroyed them, that night, but somehow she still gets to keep them.
She shouldn’t get to wake up to breakfast steaming and ready in a bowl for her. She shouldn’t get to fall asleep in the safety of their arms, tangle in their limbs on the couch, or tuck stray hairs behind the shell of an ear, lingering over the miracle of a simple touch.
The guilt of the crime itself is outweighed by the guilt of such an unbefitting punishment.
Mira destroyed them that night. She should not still get to keep them.
Or:
The purpose for the entire visit slips off of her tongue like a prayer, reverent and pious.
“I never thanked you,” Mira says. “For the night of the Idol Awards.”
Celine stiffens.

Summary
"Rumiiiiii," Zoey whined. "Why didn't you tell us how boring this would be?"
"I did." Rumi replied without losing focus on her forms. "Repeatedly."
"Yeah, Zo," Mira said, "Sorry to burst your bubble but she did say patrol was like, 90% observing like a million times. To which you responded - and I quote - "That's fine, it'll be like a fun team bonding experience.""

Summary
Everything was perfectly normal. Except that it wasn’t.
Rumi knew it the way she knew that the sun rose in the east and set in the smooth line of Mira’s shoulders, graceful and lithe. Rumi knew it the way oceans ebb and words flowed through Zoey. Rumi knew it the way she knew she would die.
And that the Honmoon would remain.
Because the Honmoon was stronger than ever. It waxed as she waned.
And that was the thing, wasn't it.
Or: Rumi died that night at Namsan Tower. It just took her body a little while to catch up.

Summary
"I did you guys a favor, you know."
Zoey hummed, doing another turn, another scan of their surroundings.
"Y'think so?"
Rumi shifted her hands in a stretch–Zoey saw Mira's scowl harden, grip tightening on her gokdo–as the woman straightened her arms over her head. The hem of her crop-top lifted slightly, a sliver of pale flesh flashing in Zoey's periphery, teasing just above the waistline of her pants.
Zoey definitely didn't stare.
Too much, anyways.
"I know so," Rumi answered after a moment, shaking her arms out. "Spiro wanted you dead."
And then she shot Zoey a smirk, and that look was all tongue and teeth and promise.
"But I've got more use for you alive."

No way Mira and Zoey could have known kidnapping one woman would cause them so much trouble, right? After all, what does a mafia boss and her loyal enforcer have to fear?

Summary
Rumi touched her fingers to her ribs. She could feel the heat radiating from her skin, even through her clothes. A distant, miserable part of her said, this is going to hurt.
She pushed her fingers down.
The rib shifted.
The thing about telling one very big lie is that it requires a foundation of hundreds of smaller lies to hold it up, lies such as "I'm fine," and "nothing's broken," and "it doesn't hurt."
Rumi finds this out the hard way.

Summary
It took them two months to track down Rumi.
An unforgivable amount of time in Mira's opinion.
Or. Rumi is captured by a group of scientists hellbent on discovering how a half-demon came to be. Mira and Zoey spend months figuring out what happened to her. When they eventually do they all have a long road to recovery ahead of them.
Or, or. Finely pureed Rumi

Summary
Mira's okay. Mira's okay. Mira's okay.
Zoey’s okay. Zoey's okay. Zoey's okay.
You're okay. You're okay. You're okay.
It just didn't feel right—didn't feel like she meant it enough. Her mind kept drifting restlessly and she couldn't focus on the words, on what she wanted them to mean.
She took an unsteady breath and started again.
Rumi has lived with rules all her life, rules that only apply to her and don't make sense to anyone else, so it isn't weird that she keeps developing more.

Summary
The most recent and most damning message is still open on her phone, clutched in her palm and clear as day even without her glasses to help parse the blurred edges.
(Zoey never bleeds blurry through an outline, never melds and fades into a background. Not to her. Not when Mira is looking.)
After what feels like an eternity of bluescreening, she finally blinks and processes what her eyes are seeing and—yes, it does appear that Zoey’s tits are out, prominently displayed on Mira’s phone screen, pushed up by sheer red fabric and lacy straps that dig into shoulders practically begging to be marked—
Mira takes a breath.
or: 5 times Zoey was a tease + 1 time Mira finally did something about it
