    Summary

    Red moved to sit on the floor in front of her and took the phone off her hands, eyes skimming through the texts. “Wait— You have a date to the Ball?”

    Chloe lifted up her head, pouting. “No.”

    “But you said you did.”

    “I know.”

    “Why would you do that?”

    “Because I’m an idiot.” Chloe answered.

    (Or: Chloe invites Red to the Masquerade Ball in celebration of her parents' anniversary. It's all fun and games until everyone believes the two of them have officially started dating)

    Summary

    “Damn Rumi, you look hot.” Mira spoke first, nudging the Maknae to stop her from staring and start with their plan.

    “Oh-” Zoey cleared her throat. "Yeah, you do! And all that just for us? Other people are gonna be jealous!” She winked.

    Rumi blushed the faintest shade of pink and started to giggle. “Oh please, this old outfit?” She struck a pose. “People will be jealous of me for going out with you two baddies.” The leader nodded.

    Mira rolled her eyes amused. “You can just accept compliments, y’know?”

    “Yeah Rumi! Cuz you really do look good!” Zoey nodded approvingly.

    “Okay, okay thank you guys.” Rumi chuckled and initiated a group hug.

    “Shall we?” Mira asked before pushing the elevator button.

    “Yeah!” The other two cheered in unison.

    Summary

    Finally, Zoey blurted it out, voice soft but sharp:

    “Have you ever thought of… something besides monogamy?”

    Mira’s thumb stilled on the screen. She looked up, slow. “…What?”

    Zoey’s hands twisted in her lap. “Like—not open relationships. Just… not just one person. Have you ever thought about being with more than one person and it still being okay?”

    She wasn’t looking at Mira. Her voice was tight, like it hurt to speak. Mira watched her with a furrowed brow, still quiet.

    “I feel so guilty all the time. Because I love you, Mira. I love you, and this doesn’t change that, but I see her and I want to make her smile and I want her to hold my hand and I think she’s beautiful and weird and sweet and I—”

    She finally looked up, tears shining in her eyes.

    “I think I ruined us. And I’m so sorry.”

    Mira just stared at her. Wide-eyed. Silent.

    Zoey’s heart dropped. “Say something.”

    Mira exhaled like she’d been holding her breath for a month.

    Then she visibly deflated—shoulders dropping, head tilting back against the wall—and let out a quiet, choked laugh.

    “…Oh thank god.”

    or.

    Summary

    She doesn't know how she gets to Celine. She aches for acceptance, for the embrace of a mother who has never known her, and if not that, then for the love of the woman who raised her. She has yearned and begged and torn herself apart trying to get it, so it's no wonder that Celine shies away from her.

    She drops to her knees and holds out her sword.

    Rumi is a thing that wants, and she wants to die.

    ---

    canon-divergence sparked by the thought of "what if rumi really *did* lose her markings?" and also contemplating how rumi has definitely contemplated her own death a lot more than that one scene, then choosing the most painful possible option for those questions.

    this was supposed to be a oneshot but I'm attached to it now. oops.

    new note: this work is still being edited! if you re-read it and it looks different, it probably is. currently editing for continuity and characterization. chapter one is pretty much done <3
