    Summary

    Touching his fingertips to the page, Evbo traces the golden lines of his hair, meticulously drawn by a careful hand. The green of his irises shimmers faintly, iridescent from whatever pigment Seawatt had used.

    Do my eyes really shine like that?


    OR: After Seawatt's death, Evbo finds his sketchbook filled with countless drawings of him, and learns how he really saw him.

    Summary

    Rumi hadn’t meant to cause such a scene. She just wasn’t thinking straight.

    Celine had told her Zoey and Mira would kill her if they found out what she was, and Rumi had come to the conclusion that she was probably right.

    Her plan, as tenuous a description as that word was, was to cut the patterns out. If she could cut out the parts of her that made her dangerous, that made her less than human, that made her so unloveable, maybe she’d stop feeling so fucking guilty every time Mira or Zoey opened up to her.

    --

    They loved each other from the start, but it just wasn't that simple.

    Summary

    “Hmm.” Zoey looked back at her notebook, skimming her finger down to the bottom of the page as she scanned her scribbled notes. “Idea thirty: pretend to date Rumi.”

    “You or Mira?”

    “Both of us.”

    Rumi snorted. “How would that help?”

    “No, hold on,” Mira said, a smile slowly spreading across her face. “I think she’s onto something here.”

    ---

    Zoey and Mira both have problems, and the obvious solution is pretending to date Rumi.

    Summary

    “Who’s your favorite god?”

    Mira swallows, savoring the broth on her lips. She doesn’t miss the way Zoey’s eyes flit down, and she has to bite her lip to keep from smirking. Zoey’s ears go red.

    “Honestly? I’m not that familiar with them,” she digs back in, “Who’s yours?”

    Zoey places the plastic cup on the ground, chopsticks set across the lid.

    “It’s a little cheesy, but uh,” she huffs, “Rumi…”

    “She’s the, uh,” Mira taps the lid of her own cup with her chopsticks, “The angel one, right? With the gak-gung?”

    Zoey nods eagerly, looking a little surprised.

    “She’s the goddess of love, but also a hunter and protector deity.” It comes out matter-of-factly.

    Mira slurps and swallows.

    “Hm. Greedy. I thought gods only embodied one thing.”

    “Well, when people talk about her they usually only focus on the whole love factor - same with the other gods, to be honest - but she’s also a guardian who hunts down demons and keeps the city safe.”

    “Whole lotta good she’s done,” Mira swallows the last of her noodles, setting her cup down next to Zoey’s, “How’s your eye, by the way?” She snarks.
