Summary
“Rumi, did you-”
“No!”
“You did! Mira said ‘babe’ and you answered!”
Rumi looked to Mira for help. She found none.
“I was talking to Zoey, but uh. I can call you babe too, if you want.” she drawled. Rumi groaned and buried her head in her arms. Zoey’s laughs died down, her attention now intensely focused on Rumi’s form.
“I was gonna say I wanna call her honey ‘cos she’s so sweet, but maybe I should call her glowstick?”
Zoey and Mira make a discovery about Rumi. Things spiral from there.

Summary
If she spoke she'd end up shouting—arguing with a talkshow host was more trouble than it was worth—and if she walked off she'd be leaving a mess for someone else to clean. Giving in simply wasn't an option worth considering.
She did what she always did when she was so thoroughly trapped. Her eyes flicked over to Rumi and Zoey.
It made her feel small and meek.
It's hard to accept protection when you've always been the protector.

Summary
Mira's okay. Mira's okay. Mira's okay.
Zoey’s okay. Zoey's okay. Zoey's okay.
You're okay. You're okay. You're okay.
It just didn't feel right—didn't feel like she meant it enough. Her mind kept drifting restlessly and she couldn't focus on the words, on what she wanted them to mean.
She took an unsteady breath and started again.
Rumi has lived with rules all her life, rules that only apply to her and don't make sense to anyone else, so it isn't weird that she keeps developing more.

Summary
"You've got good taste," Mira said before taking another sip.
Zoey glanced around to make sure both of the other passengers had their headphones on, then lowered her voice even further. "I've been told I taste amazing."
Flight attendant Zoey is outrageously flirty and extremely bored, and she's going to make it the problem of two very attractive and surprisingly receptive passengers.

Summary
Rumi touched her fingers to her ribs. She could feel the heat radiating from her skin, even through her clothes. A distant, miserable part of her said, this is going to hurt.
She pushed her fingers down.
The rib shifted.
The thing about telling one very big lie is that it requires a foundation of hundreds of smaller lies to hold it up, lies such as "I'm fine," and "nothing's broken," and "it doesn't hurt."
Rumi finds this out the hard way.
