    Summary

    After defeating Gwi-Ma, everything's been going great for Rumi. The Honmoon's been sealed. She's got a loving pair of girlfriends, a much needed vacation, and even an adorable new pet tiger. There's just one problem: Rumi hates being an alpha. But like, that's normal, right? Don't all alphas kind of hate their dynamics?

    No?

    Shit.

    Summary

    Rumi has always been a bad beta. She knows this intrinsically, as if it’s a fact etched into her skin as permanently as her patterns.

    It isn't for a lack of effort. She tries to be a good meditator, a strong glue to hold them all together. She tries to do all of the right things; she leaves food and blankets outside of their doors during ruts and handles it patiently when the alpha posturing gets out of control.

    She tries, and she knows that it isn’t enough, because if it was, there wouldn’t be this awful chasm in her chest. The constantly underlying want that settles under her skin whenever she’s with Mira and Zoey, or even when she's without them for too long.

    Betas aren’t supposed to want. They aren’t supposed to have this terrible aching feeling that something is missing.

    OR:

    Rumi presents late because of her demon blood.

    Summary

    Polytrix Avatar AU inspired by solarsapphos' art and ideas

    Rumi was never supposed to have been there.

    It was her sister, with her big brain, an impressive PhD and dozens of other accolades that was supposed to have been standing here. Hana was the one that had impressed Dr. Celine Park enough to have gotten invited to this mission.

    Not Rumi.

    It was why everyone was surprised when Rumi had actually gotten pretty good in her avatar body. Good enough to have gotten invited into the clan by the chief’s daughter and her mated pair.

    Summary

    “What are you guys talking about?” Rumi cuts in. When Zoey looks back at her, she finds Rumi looking beyond confused, almost distressed.

    “Our six-month anniversary,” Zoey states with a vague motion between the three of them. “It’s been six months since we started dating.”

    “Almost six months,” Mira wrongly corrects.

    “We’re dating?” Rumi asks.

    or: zoey thinks it polytrix's anniversary. mira doesn't think it's for awhile. rumi doesn't think.

    Summary

    A delicate and flowering thing—like faith, like hope and trust—that blooms for a time, in warmth and sunlight, in the easy joys of summer.

    Yet nothing lasts forever. In time, like faith, it fades. Nothing lasts forever; pushed to its limit, it dies. But nothing lasts forever—and winters end. The grey and cold are not eternal. Even withered stalks, if tended, may yet have strong roots.

    In time—like trust, like hope—it blooms again.
