    Summary

    She grabbed a couple of painkillers from the cabinet and swallowed them with a handful of water from the sink. Her hands shook as she brought the water to her mouth.

    Rumi had time. She could finally focus on something other than faults and fears, and she intended to focus on things that mattered.

    She'd be feeling better in a couple of weeks, tops.


    An exploration of love in the face of impending loss.

    or-

    What if being a hybrid didn't make Rumi longer lived--what if it did the opposite?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    surprise, surprise, my pillow is wet and my face will be stained with tears the night before my grad party.

    The fic focuses on Rumi’s declining health, her battle against fate, and her eventual acceptance of death, along with Mira’s fear of being left by another person in her life, Zoey reliance on alcohol before going sober to enjoy their final days with Rumi, and Celine attempting to prove to herself that she did not fail Rumi entirely by being a mother to all three of them.

    Overall, there are no complaints. The fic delivered on its promises of bricks, which came be seen by the brick shaped indent on my face that is filling with tears like a soup bowl.
