Summary
Mira arrives at the tattoo shop like a woman possessed - panting, wet hair from the shower clinging to her face and neck with her heart beating wildly in her throat and definitely almost making the quick shower be void of usefulness from all her sprinting.
“Please tell me she didn’t blacklist me!”
Or
The Coffee Shop / Tattoo Parlour AU that burrowed itself into my brain and I had to fight tooth and nail to get it out.
This is my first fic ever so... just be aware of that, mkay? I'm also only starting to learn how to properly edit text on ao3. You were warned. -

Summary
Rumi has never been blind to the way people look at her. She’s been in the public eye since she was ten years old. Being looked at—controlling the public’s eyes and wagging tongues, or handling it with grace—has been as much a constant lesson in her life as singing or swinging a sword. She’s good at it. Very good. But there has always been a safety net—they’re not really seeing her. They’re seeing Mi-yeong’s daughter, or Celine’s ward, or the face of HUNTR/X.
This is supposed to change that.

Summary
He felt her before he saw her, a thrum in the air as the barrier’s strings rippled out, a sense of wrong filling his body. It was strange, feeling the ingrained wariness of a Hunter clash with the innate safety from a demons presence within the same being.
And then he saw her.
Or
Derpy sees Rumi and decides to adopt her like a stray while Sussie pecks at him

Summary
"You've never heard of an open mic?!" The girl says, bouncing on the spot
Rumi checks the flyer again and almost snorts out loud. Its on Friday at 11pm. As if Celine would even consider letting her out alone, especially late at night. Plus Fridays are busy; online classes, then sparring, then meditation, then free time before dinner. After dinner is dessert (if weekly chores have been completed) then they have a recap discussion of the week. If Celine is in a particularly good mood, she may allow Rumi to select a movie from the small DVD collection. Usually she chooses Spirited Away, but sometimes she chooses My Neighbour Totoro, just to mix things up.
Or
For many years Rumi has lived a sheltered, regimented, lonely life with Celine until a chance meeting at the market opens up a whole new world for her. Will Zoey and Mira help her break free from Celine's control? Or is the Ryu line destined to end in tragedy?

Summary
Mira nodded along with Zoey, acting like it was the most normal thing in the world. “I agree with Zoey. We need a little something…” Her eyes flicked to… did they just flick to her lips?
No. No. She was seeing things. There was no way that–
“More,” Mira finished.
More? What did that even mean? And yet, here Mira and Zoey were, getting closer and closer that it seemed like they knew exactly what “more” was.
The bodyguard/ actor/ streamer AU nobody but me asked for.
Rumi, the daughter of superstars Celine and Miyeong, starts her job as a bodyguard. She just so happened to be paired with famous couple Kang Mira and Choi Zoey. Mira has been queen of the acting world since she was 15. Zoey took Twitch by storm one stream at a time.
The two take a quick interest in their new bodyguard and her stoic but exotic appearance. They make a bet to get her to fall for either one of them but things are never that simple in the entertainment business. Especially when you're a bodyguard.
Shenanigans, chaos, online media craze, and falling in love ensues.
Or: Bodyguard Rumi, Actor Mira, Streamer Zoey, one bet, infinite gay panic

Summary
Rumi knows she has a lot to answer for, but she hopes how much she cares for her girls has never been in question. It's all out there. It's a little broken - she broke them - but she can fix it, if they'll give her a chance. She can really be perfect for them this time.

Summary
“Mira?” Her voice cracked.
“Hey, Zoey, how long til you’re home?“
“Mira, I just hit someone with my car!” She tried holding back her tears as she looked at the unconscious woman in the back seat.
“You what?! Wh-why are you calling me? Call 911!” She shouted into the phone.
“No, I-I did, there’s been a huge pileup on the interstate, a massive accident and there was a-a fire downtown. They said the nearest paramedic is over fifteen minutes away.” She checked the back seat again to make sure she was breathing.
“Ok, ok, I’m on my way. Where are you?” The sound of dangling keys came through the speakers.
“I got the girl into the backseat and I’m taking her to the nearest hospital.” Zoey explained.
“I’ll meet you there, Zo. Be there in ten.” She sighed. “She one of those scam jumpers a druggie, homeless?” Mira asked, frustrated.
“No… I-I sort of… swerved into her…” Said, hesitantly.
“You what?!?” Mira shouted.
There was a-in the road… and the lightning and she flew into… I’ll explain it later!”
Or:After a near-fatal accident, Rumi is hospitalized, Zoemira do their best to atone for the mistake. While Rumi struggles with her own issues.

Summary
The yellow bomber jacket hit first — so bold it made the drab office look even duller. Then her hair: a thick braid of deep violet, heavy enough to swing like a rope, brushing against her ankle with every step. Her dark eyes swept the room, steady, unhurried.
Orryn rose immediately, lips curling back, a snarl vibrating his chest.
She didn’t flinch. If anything, her gaze flicked toward him with quiet amusement, like she’d expected it. That slight upward pull of her mouth only stoked his growl further.
Mira tightened her grip on his ruff. “Sorry,” she said quickly. “He doesn’t usually—”
“It’s fine,” Rumi interrupted, her voice calm and smooth. “I get that a lot.”
The dean blinked, thrown. “And… your daemon?”
Rumi tilted her head, braid shifting over her shoulder. “Didn’t feel like being cooped up again after the train ride. He’s probably somewhere outside. A tree, maybe.” Her laugh was light, as though she hadn’t just said something impossible.
Silence blanketed the room. Daemons didn’t stray. Not like that. The dean’s dog whined softly. Tavris crawled higher up Zoey’s shoulder, claws pricking through her shirt.
Zoey blurted, “You’re hot.“

Summary
She can’t be the one screaming because someone already else is, so Zoey is the one that cries instead.
“Rumi!” Comes the screaming,” Rumi, please! Rumi, come back! Rumi-”
It can’t be Zoey’s turn right now because she’s not the one that’s feeling the worst out of everyone. She’s not the one that is falling into despair so early.

Zoey and Mira, and Rumi fall into a world that separates them

No, I Don’t Like Her. That’s Just My Face by fabargent

Summary
She leaned in, just enough for her breath to hit Rumi’s cheek.
Rumi’s fingers curled.
Mira’s eyes dropped, first to Rumi’s lips, then down her neck, her collarbone, her chest rising fast. Too fast. This was no longer about winning. Not really.
The anger had bled into something else entirely.
But Rumi’s other hand pressed flat against her shoulder. A warning.
Then.. forceful.
Mira was shoved off and onto her back with a frustrated grunt.
or
Mira swears she doesn’t like Rumi. She just happens to stare at her in training. And in the kitchen. And when she stretches. And okay maybe once when she was drinking water like it was the sexiest thing ever. But that doesn’t mean anything. Right?

Summary
The client hadn’t really requested anything at all; their emails had been almost overly polite, if not jarringly formal, and had selected only the most vanilla options on the questionnaire she provided. Certainly a far cry from the standard practices of her usual clientele, but this one had paid upfront and picked this expensive hotel, and Mira’s fees are dear enough on their own that she had been coloured intrigued.
Mira takes a left down the hallway after leaving the elevator and finds herself at the door to the room. She doesn’t steel herself—doesn’t need to. She can handle anything. Has handled most things. Mira swipes the keycard and lets herself in.
The person sitting on the bed is probably the last thing she expects.
In which Mira is a professional, Rumi is socially inept, and Zoey is also there. Let's hope nobody catches feelings.

Summary
Residual flare: noun [daemonology] the visible light that surrounds a daemon, their partner, and the tether that connects the two.
//
Rumi is a demon. She has a soul—her daemon, Hyeon-seo, is everything anyone could hope for in a partner—but there's something wrong with the tether. No one can know that Hyeon-seo still hasn't settled, long, long after he ought to have. It'll be fixed. They'll both be fixed when the honmoon turns gold. Hyeon-seo will settle and Rumi's patterns will disappear and they can both be who they've been trying to be for so long. It'll happen. It has to happen.

Summary
"So, Rumi," Zoey's mother begins, so sweet and benign and unaware of the massive headache she was about to gracefully bestow upon Rumi. "Are you seeing anyone?"
It's an innocent question. Just one of those things that parents ask their daughter's friends. She asks it while Rumi helps herself to a delectable serving of galbi jjim, piling cuts of the meat onto her plate, and Rumi almost fumbles her chopsticks and drops a piece.
It's just a yes or no question.
Rumi, however, stops and very eloquently says: "Um."
OR: When Zoey's cousin invites all three of them to California for his wedding, Zoey is forced to navigate her and Rumi's newly-found feelings for each other while staying at her parents' house for four days. Zoey's trying not to explode, Rumi is an awkward, blushing mess, and Mira thinks it's the funniest shit ever. Will they manage to survive Costco, nosy family members in a backyard barbecue, a bachelor party, and the wedding day itself?

Summary
“Hey, babe. Been looking everywhere for you.”
The voice was low, honeyed, warm in all the right places. It fell over Rumi in a way the man’s voice hadn’t, settling into her bones and gnawing faintly, already leaving impressions on her marrow.
And yet another touch, this one lighter, a palm splayed across the small of her back, a second body pressing into hers from behind.
“Yeah, we thought we lost you for a sec there.” This voice, a little higher, but no less deadly.
Not one, but two strangers.
“Can’t you see you’re interrupting something?” the guy snapped at them.
“Can’t you see,” the first voice mocked, “she’s not yours?”
OR
Two women step in when a guy gets pushy with Rumi at a bar. What happens after is meant to be a one-night stand, nothing more.
But rarely do things turn out exactly the way they're meant to.

Summary
In hindsight, it should have been obvious. The way Rumi refused to go to the bathhouse, her bizarre relationship with Celine, this whole thing with the Saja Boys? Mira prided herself on reading people, and she felt stupid for not seeing it sooner. The pieces were all there, just waiting to be put together.
Rumi was gay.
The night after the joint signing with the Saja Boys, Mira went to confront Rumi about her ongoing weird behavior. Instead of letting hurt feelings drive the conversation, Mira took a minute to try and figure out what might be wrong. Unfortunately, she came to the completely wrong conclusion.
Misunderstandings ensue. They talk it out.
For better or worse, everything changes.

Summary
“Then…” Enid steels herself. “Then can I touch myself, or not?”
Wednesday exhales, uncrossing her arms. “You may.”
This fucking girl.
“Fine,” Enid says in a small voice, scooting back on the bed.
She feels cowed and decidedly not turned on, shoved as far away from her as possible against the unforgiving headboard. This was not how she saw her Thursday afternoon going when she escaped to find some privacy.

I want to die like a citrus tree (but that's not a milkweed's fate) by ILovedHerAndSometimesSheLovedMeToo

Summary
Mira and Zoey don’t know this yet (they will, one day soon, they will), but Rumi died for the first time the Monday after her eleventh birthday.
Or
Rumi inhaled, the rush of air filling her lungs, inflating that tiny balloon called hope trapped behind her ribs.
“I love you, Celine.”
The words tumbled out of her gracelessly, but so so sweetly. She waited, and all the while, that little balloon grew and grew, the plastic skin of it stretching and thinning with every second before—
“You too,” Celine said back.
‘Pop.’
“Celine,” Rumi tried again, voice shaking as tears she didn’t even know she still had left to shed began to drip down her left cheek. “Celine, I said I love you.”
Or
If demons (even half-demons) could kill themselves, there probably wouldn't be many left. Rumi doesn't know this, yet. She learns.

Summary
When left with a half-demon child, Celine decides to take advantage of the creature's nature and raise it as a weapon.
Rumi knows what she is; she is a hunting dog aiding her demon hunters. She will be good, she will be useful; if not, she will be put down.
Mira and Zoey hate this.
