    Summary

    “Rumi?” Mira questioned uncertainly. The demons had frozen as well, staring at Rumi as she stared back. The tense silence stretched. The hallway felt like the oxygen had been sucked out and the dim lighting cast shadows all around.

    “Rumi, there’s no such thing as half demons. We would know. Celine would have told us. It has to be a trick….” Zoey said but it was clear she still had her own reservations.

    And what could Rumi say to that? Celine had said she could find no records of any other half demons, not anywhere in the archive. How could hunters have never encountered a single half demon in the nearly 800 years since the honmoon was created? What were the chances they would meet them now, in this generation, when Rumi herself was one? It felt like a trap. It had to be a trap.

    But…

    “Rumi?”

    “She’s bleeding.” She said softly. “Demons don’t bleed.”

    "I've been thinking about the dream you made for me. About being a hunter. About being an idol. About doing my duty."

    "Yes?" Celine beckoned.

    "Well… what if I don't? What if I just stay here in this crater on this mountain and enjoy being what I am? After all," she chuckled tonelessly, "I am supposed to keep my taint hidden. You said that, once. Do you remember saying that?"

    "I do."

    "That's not a… nice thing to say, Celine. Nice people… nice people don't say those things."

    A beat.

    "Did you mean it?"

    The silence that followed was longer than any Rumi could remember between them.

    Summary

    “I know!”, Mira said, gesturing helplessly. “I know it sounds insane, but I swear on my Gok-Do! There was a– a puff of smoke and then in place of the cat there was a woman with long, dark hair. Like a Korean Rapunzel.”

    Zoey processed this information. She knew Mira wouldn’t lie to her – not like this, never swearing on her weapon. And they had seen crazy things before… but their cat? A naked lady?

    “Huh”, she said, trying to picture it and failing. “Was she cute?”

    Summary

    "Hi, I'm Zoey! It's so good to meet you!"

    "Mira. Same."

    This was typically the part where Rumi would be expected to introduce herself, but she didn't seem to give a flying fuck about what was expected of her if the way she still just stared even as Celine cleared her throat pointedly said anything.

    -

    "Hey, we got you something from the store last night."

    Rumi squinted between them and the bag. "Why."

    "Because as much as you don't seem to like us, we like you just fine."

    -

    "Well, come on. Aren't you going to bite somebody with those big sharp teeth of yours?" Mira prompted again with a raised brow, shaking Zoey's arm slightly, as if genuinely trying to entice Rumi to take a bite.

    Instead of taking the proffered bait, Rumi turned her head away with a strong air of ‘well now I don't want to.'

    "Thought so." Mira drawled, unimpressed. "Now how about you let us help you inside?"

    -

    Alt take: Repression didn't work baybeee, now it's everyone's problem!
