Summary
Ryu Rumi, eighteen years old, beloved idol in training, died on a cloudy Friday afternoon.
Nobody ever found her, there was no funeral.
But Ryu Rumi, hunter apprentice and pop star heiress, died on a cloudy Friday afternoon in a small hotel room, and someone else walked out.
A year later, twenty year old 'Yun Jia' has a small apartment, two dead end jobs, and a mystical shield tugging on her throat like a leash to pull her back to a home that has moved on without her. Despite HUNTR/X being the most popular Kpop duo in Korea, Jia has never listened to a single one of their songs, or gone to a show, or watched an interview.
Because Yun Jia is a coward. A nobody. But she's alive while Ryu Rumi is dead, and that's all she thinks will make her happy.
Because Ryu Rumi, beloved friend and one of the most important people in the world, died when she was eighteen, when Yun Jia left her corpse in a hotel room in Seoul, and walked out wearing her skin.
But now she's a ghost, and she won't go away.

Summary
As hot tears begin to prickle out, Rumi slowly opens her eyes. The voices won’t stop - her voices - and the weight is only sinking deeper. She needs to count again. She needs to count a dozen more times, a hundred even. She needs to count and count until she’s big enough to seal the Honmoon the way she’s supposed to and she can finally know for certain: her patterns have turned to dust.

Summary
Mira and Zoey were beyond shocked to see Rumi's patterns. How could their Rumi, the person they've both been in love with for years, have kept something like that from them? But the hurt of that revelation can't stop them from still wanting her. Rumi is shattered, running from the people she loves most in the world, the people that she isn't allowed to want. But what if she was? How will the girls come back together and work through their feelings after the Idol Awards?
OR
What if Mira and Zoey went after Rumi when she ran to Celine during the Idol Awards? Then what?

Summary
"Come on, demon scum,” Zoey bounces on the balls of her feet. practically vibrating as she shifts from side to side and wipes the blood from beneath her nose. Her smile is sharp. just as clear as it was an hour ago when they had started. “You call that a hit?”
Or. Rumi clutches her hands to her sides, letting her claws dig into her palm. Celine watches her with a softening expression, taking a breath before letting it out.
“Oh Rumi” she says, cupping her cheek, the warmth of her palm sinking into her skin.
“Don’t ruin these young girls' lives. Leave them alone. They have a whole world ahead of them” Celine pulls away and heads for the door but at the last moment she turns to look back at her, “don’t let your selfishness be the thing that kills them”
or. What if Celine hadn't turned Rumi into a hunter? what if she had seen the abomination of a child that had been left to her and thought she might as well turn her into something useful.
and then set off to find the next generation of hunters.

Summary
Mira watched Jinu carefully from the couch, lips pressed into a thin line. “So, what’s the real story with you and Rumi? You’ve only known her a few weeks, right?”
A smirk spread across Jinu’s face as he shrugged, acting like it was no big deal. “Yeah, about a month.”
Zoey tilted her head, clearly curious. “You two seem like you’ve got some kind of history. Spill.”
Enjoying the game, he gave a cocky grin. “Simple. She fell first, I fell harder.”
Zoey blinked, confused. “That’s it?"
Folding her arms, Mira scoffed. "Liar."Before elaborating, Rumi strolled in, utterly unimpressed, arms crossed.
“Wrong,” came her flat reply. “He tripped me—I wasn’t paying attention. So I pushed him down a ditch.”
Unfazed, Jinu laughed. “See? Truth.”
A flicker of irritation crossed Mira’s eyes. “And you’re fine with that?”
Glancing at Mira and Zoey, Jinu’s smirk deepened, his voice dropping to a teasing murmur. “Why? You jealous?”
Rumi, oblivious to the tension, just rolled her eyes. “You’re such an ass.”
That grin only widened. “Yeah, but I’m *your* ass.”

Summary
Rumi sits on one of the higher buildings of the city, overlooking the shimmering webs carefully laid out across it, only visible to her. She comes here often, when everything else is too loud and she thinks she's drowning. Not that she actually was drowning. That happened two weeks ago, and had been entirely her fault for missing her shot mid-swing.

31. Rescued by the Enemy
Returning to her chair, she poured herself a glass of whiskey. Celine raised it in the air, waiting for someone else to meet her.No one did.
“Happy birthday, Mi-yeong,” she said before taking a sip. “I miss you.” Celine stared at the whiskey, alcohol mixing with the melting ice cube to make a strange illusion in her glass. She sighed, finishing the rest of her drink in two sips.
Celine groaned as she poured herself another glass.

She wished she could be sitting with the girls, eating dinner, laughing and crying about what a mess this day had become.
She wished she could apologize for not being fast enough, press her forehead to the cracked wooden floor and plead for them to forgive her.
The starved animal at her core whined and thrashed.
She wished she could be normal.

Summary
Zoey doesn’t know how long she stands there in the middle of her room, gawking at the notification flashing at her screen.
Well, notifications, plural. They’re back to back on her home screen, right under all her social media notifications of people showering her with likes for today’s breakfast.
Ryu Rumi sent you $250.00
“For lunch! Let me know if you need more xo”Kang Mira sent you $501.00
“lmk if she sent more than 500, I can double it lol”Zoey loudly declares, “What the HELL?”
Or, broke college student Zoey goes viral for her revolting college meals—and rich girls Rumi and Mira find a little pity (among other things) in their hearts for her.

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.”

Summary
They dropped Zoey off, waving and watching carefully until she stepped into her building before Mira began backing out.
“You were right.” Mira said, keeping her eyes on the road as she navigated back out of the complex.
“About what?” Rumi answered, looking at her confused.
“She is really cute.”
Rumi huffed, smiling and looking away. “Yeah, and thanks for saving that till after she got out of the car. I was convinced you were gonna say something.”
“Aw, babe. I would NEVER mess with you flirting. Its adorable. Plus, I didn’t mind flirting with her too.” She smirked. “Did you see how NERVOUS she was. Poor thing."
