    Summary

    Softness is not a thing preserved for Rumi. Emotional vulnerability ("You can open up to us, Rumi"), comfort, honesty ("Our faults and fears must never be seen, Rumi"), the gentle touch of Zoey's hand, the press of Mira's lips on her temple, the warmth of a hug she can let go in, all these things aren't to her taste. She doesn't like them.

    Softness isn't an option for her, she's just not made for it. It's fine.

    OR: Rumi accidentally opens up a bit then opens up alot and reveals her patterns.

    Summary

    Ryu Rumi is a beta. That's always been one of the fundamental parts of her identity, right up there with the fact that she's half-demon and in love with her bandmates. But when new revelations shake this piece of foundation that's core to her being, she finds herself thrust into a world of pheromones and scents that she never thought she'd be a part of.

    Thankfully, the unknown has always felt less terrifying with Mira and Zoey by her side.

    Summary

    They’re just best friends.
    Totally normal, healthy best friends who cuddle too long, stare too hard, and maybe daydream about each other a bit too much.
    It’s fine. Everything is fine.
    Except... Everything is not fine.

    Mutual pining and yearning, but make it poly.

    Or

    The one where everyone is pining, nobody is talking, and all three of them are idiots in love and terrible at communicating.

    Summary

    “How do I… How can I trust that?” Rumi’s words were small, almost a whisper, but she could still see Zoey and Mira react to them. A sharp breath, a twitch of the hand. “How can I still trust you’ll love me the way you used to?”

    Mira stepped closer. “Trust can be rebuilt. I… still don’t know if I trust you right now, after you kept this secret for so long. But I know I’ll trust you again one day, cause I love you. And that’s enough.”

    (or, a post-canon slice-of-life where Rumi, Mira, and Zoey figure out how to move forward and keep loving each other after the events of the movie. Maybe in ways they once could only begin to hope for. Now with a plot!)

    Summary

    Finally, Zoey blurted it out, voice soft but sharp:

    “Have you ever thought of… something besides monogamy?”

    Mira’s thumb stilled on the screen. She looked up, slow. “…What?”

    Zoey’s hands twisted in her lap. “Like—not open relationships. Just… not just one person. Have you ever thought about being with more than one person and it still being okay?”

    She wasn’t looking at Mira. Her voice was tight, like it hurt to speak. Mira watched her with a furrowed brow, still quiet.

    “I feel so guilty all the time. Because I love you, Mira. I love you, and this doesn’t change that, but I see her and I want to make her smile and I want her to hold my hand and I think she’s beautiful and weird and sweet and I—”

    She finally looked up, tears shining in her eyes.

    “I think I ruined us. And I’m so sorry.”

    Mira just stared at her. Wide-eyed. Silent.

    Zoey’s heart dropped. “Say something.”

    Mira exhaled like she’d been holding her breath for a month.

    Then she visibly deflated—shoulders dropping, head tilting back against the wall—and let out a quiet, choked laugh.

    “…Oh thank god.”

    or.

    Rumi moves in with two strangers and they fall in love boom
