    Summary

    Trickle.

    The skin on her arm is cleaved away. It is rough and messy and painful, but Rumi doesn’t care. For once, she has hope to fix things. Through half-lidded eyes, she watches the wound knit itself back together. Her hand is still holding the knife, and she is willing to try as many times as necessary to fix herself.

    It heals quickly, a large scar taking over its place. Her chest feels empty, like a part of her soul had been taken away, but—

    The patterns are gone.

    ***

    or, demons have always been known to recover easily, and a certain half-demon girl’s mind starts to unravel at a far too young age.

    ***

    or (+1), Rumi slices her patterns off, loses a few buckets of blood, and makes it everyone's problem (something about your patterns being part of your soul?)
