Summary
Rumi looks down. “Your soul,” she whispers mournfully, enraptured by the blue light trickling out of his chest. “It’s beautiful.”
Jinu smiles.
Gently, he presses his forehead against hers. Rumi jolts, eyes widening, but to his relief, she doesn’t pull away.
“My soul,” he echoes softly. “It’s yours, now.”
Rumi opens her mouth, but no words escape her as she gapes at him. A tear cascades down her cheek.
“It’s mine to give, and yours to take, if you’ll have me.” His vision is blurring, and so he lets his eyes fall shut, allowing the darkness to encompass him. He forces himself to believe that the lull of sleep is accepted of his own volition.
His cheeks tingle. Rumi is holding onto his face. “No, no, no—” she grits out. Her voice is growing distant. “Stop. You can’t do this to me.” The words rush out of her in a frenzy, full of haste and distress. “Jinu.”
“Rumi,” he responds in a broken murmur. “Thank you.”
She was right. Gwi-Ma could be defeated.
He should have listened to her.
(Or: A fix-it/time-travel au where Jinu goes back to the very beginning of the story and sets things right.)

Summary
Jinu died—he sacrificed himself, surrendering his soul to Rumi to save the people and repair the Honmoon. Or so he thought. Instead of oblivion, he wakes in a strange limbo, caught between worlds.
Time loses meaning as he drifts, lulled by the haunting beauty of Rumi’s voice echoing through the void. He doesn’t know how long he remains, listening, yearning, until at last Rumi’s voice calls to him—not with a song, but a command. Come back. And somehow, impossibly, he does.
Or—
An AU where Jinu is transformed into Rumi’s sword and strangely soul bound to her.
And after four hundred years, it is Rumi—and perhaps her friends—who teach him not just how to survive, but how to truly live again. With him, danger follows.
