    Summary

    It was dark out. That was what Rumi noticed first when she shot out of bed, heart racing. It seemed like a silly thing to notice when her skin was doused in cold sweat and tremors racked her body. For a moment, she couldn't even think of what had happened, then she remembered. Hands pulling, ripping at her clothes. Hundreds, no thousands, of eyes on her. The freezing yet burning feeling of her patterns moving, crawling, taking over her flesh-

    Summary

    It’s when her knees hit the ground that she realizes she’s been here before. She’s lived through this before, and she hated it just as much then as she does now. She knows what comes next.

    With her body trembling and all the fight she had completely gone, she summons her sword and lifts it above her head, as an offering to Celine. The words she hates tumbling out of her mouth without her control.

    “Do what you should’ve done a long time ago.” Rumi doesn’t dare to look up. At this point, she had already accepted it. She knew what had to happen. “Before I destroy what I swore to protect.”

    This is the part she hates the most. The part she is never ready for. From behind the tree, Zoey and Mira reveal themselves. Woldo and Sinkal in hand.

    “We see you for what you truly are,” Mira says. Her eyes red, her expression wicked and voice haunted.

    “A mistake,” Zoey completes. Her voice is hers but not hers at all. It’s dark and dangerous. Unkind. Hurt. “A demon..."

    Or Rumi has nightmares about that night and her girlfriends are worried.

    Summary

    Over the years, Zoey inadvertently develops a ritual-- on the nights when she can't sleep, when the darkness presses at her, she sneaks into Mira's room for comfort. Turns out she's not the only one who takes comfort from this ritual.

    Summary

    The woman’s eyes widened, and her hand reached out, not quite touching Rumi, but close. “Not that you’re not beautiful, because wow, you-” She stopped, a look of realisation crossed her face “-I mean, no, wait, no, you are beautiful, but I wasn’t hitting on you, I have a girlfriend-” 

    Rumi ignored her chest squeezing.

     “-A stunning girlfriend, Mira. I mentioned her, right? My girlfriend Mira-” The woman stopped abruptly and lowered her head down into her arms. “Jeez, Zoey, stop rambling at the deaf woman.” It was muffled, but Rumi heard it.

    Silenced by grief, Rumi’s world is transformed when she crosses paths with Mira and Zoey, who guide her toward a voice she thought was lost forever.

    Or

    Mira with Zoey holding her arm in a death grip: Hey, my girlfriend saw you from across the record shop, and we really dig your vibe. Can we buy you a vinyl?
