Summary
Rumi's fine living her life with just her cat, Derpy. Honest. She has a friend! He is halfway across the world, training to be an idol, though. But she's fine! She doesn't need many friends. She's fine. She's 100%, totally fine. Right?

Rumi stumbles into something (and someone) beautiful, one steaming hot coffee cup at a time.

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?

Summary
In a fit of frustration she throws the canvas to the ground. Woven cloth snaps, the sickly breaking of a bone at the unprecedented amount of force applied. Onto the hardwood, stained, it clatters, and Mira heaves her anguish in shuddering breaths as heat clouds her face.
The anger is gone just as quickly, spirited away as a stone settles in her stomach.
“No, no, no—” she whispers to herself, to the dwindling light that marks another day gone. She drops to her knees, collecting pieces of her heart broken in two. “I’m sorry—Zoey, I’m sorry, fuck.”

Summary
Rumi thinks that this last month has to be the best month of her life.
Well, afterlife.
Basically the same thing.
People are moving in. She’s seen them, both of them. Rumi practically lost her mind when she realised what was happening, because she’s been alone for an awful amount of time—ten whole years—and she was going to completely go insane if she didn’t have anyone to at least pretend to talk to.
She, admittedly, hasn’t been a ghost for very long. It’s only been ten years, which she knows is basically nothing when she’s effectively immortal now. Rumi hasn’t entirely figured that part out, and she’s also forgotten why she died or how it happened in the first place, so all of her hopes of actually moving on have been more or less dashed for the time being. Which is fine, she’s sure she would have figured it out at some point once she actually started to lose it—which likely would have happened in the next year, because ten years was already way too long to spend alone—but now there are people, and they’re moving in, and she’s not going to be alone anymore.
Like she said. Best month of her life.

Summary
i keep telling myself it wasn’t that bad. that nothing bad happened. that you were just a nice guy, that maybe i overreacted. but then it plays in my head again and again. i should have said no. i should have done something. i should have fought or screamed or run. but i didn’t. i froze. i just let it happen. i hate that i made it so easy.
why me? why you?
was it something i wore? hoodies and jeans was that somehow too revealing? or maybe it was just me. me being there. me existing in the wrong place at the wrong time. maybe that’s all it took. maybe i made it happen just by being there. i saw the signs, didn’t i? i stayed. i stayed and smiled and pretended it was fine until it wasn’t. so how can it not be my fault?
i don’t even know who i am anymore. i keep looking in the mirror and wondering if anyone else can see it. the stain of it on me. i keep scrubbing, but it won’t come off. i keep thinking if i could just go back, just one second before it happened, i’d be braver this time. i’d say no. i’d scream. i’d stop you. but i didn’t. and i can’t. and now i have to live with this forever.
"Rumi. It wasn't your fault."

Summary
Takes place a few months post-canon
With all the secrets revealed after the Idol Awards debacle, Mira and Zoey though that Rumi had finally opened up to them fully. But Rumi was still hiding, still sleeping in her own room behind a locked door every night-even after the three of them went public with their relationship, and still hadn't gone to the bath house with them. Because Rumi still has one thing she hasn't told her girls, something she's been told to keep secret even more than her patterns. Rumi wasn't born the daughter of Mi-yeong Ryu--but the son of Mi-yeong Ryu.
