Summary
“Oh, she is stoned stoned,” Mira says.
Zoey's eyes are alight with mirth, but they soften with something fonder. “Okay, but why is she so adorable?”
“Because she's Rumi,” Mira sighs. “We should probably take her to bed.”
Zoey's face turns dramatic, clutching fake pearls around her neck. “You wanna bone now? In her current state?”
“Not like that, dumbass!” Mira snaps back, but her reddening cheeks remove any bite from her words.
“I think I'm tilting.”
Both girls’ attention returns to Rumi, who, unsurprisingly, is not tilting.
So she purrs. What about catnip?

Summary
The overworked project manager on the redesign of the Imperial Lambda-class shuttle gets surprisingly competent feedback from an unknown official on Coruscant. She promptly decides that anyone bored enough to do a technical review of their own free will should be found proper employment for their own good.
Her correspondent has been missing the opportunity to tinker with machinery. It gives him something to do between hunting down rebels.

Summary
“Rumi,” Zoey’s voice is impossibly soft, “why wouldn’t I tell you that you’re good?”
Rumi shrugs, feeling raw and exposed in the way she always does after kneeling for them.
She considers the question: she just wasn’t brought up that way. There was never any need for praise or affirmation as a form of encouragement. Not when there were other forms so readily available – imminent choking forms, creeping steadily across her body.
A soft Rumi character study featuring cows, colours and collars.

don't let this darkness fool you (all lights turned off can be turned on) by acetone4veins

Summary
Rumi wondered, idly, whether she had ever been capable of being different. Human. Not a weapon, or an idol, or a demon. How much of herself was a product of her father, of her mother, of what Celine made her into? How much of herself was actually hers?
She doesn’t remember the girl she was before. Before the shame and fear and desperate longing to be someone - something - else. She’d shoved and buried herself somewhere so unreachable, carefully built walls and masks until they became impenetrable, and now she wasn’t sure if there had ever been anything else to begin with. Who was she, underneath all of that?
or
Rumi's struggling during their three month hiatus. Mira and Zoey help her figure it out.

Summary
This is a collection of world-building designs and thoughts based on work I've done behind the scenes for Sunset and Evening Star. Most of it was originally posted on Tumblr.
- SSV Normandy SR-2 redesign (one chapter per deck)
- Galaxy map and relay routes
Some references are specific to Rhi Shepard's universe, but I try to be as canon-compliant as possible, so while my asides and labels might be specific, it should be broadly applicable.

I'd sooner die than bury you (grieving, grieving, constantly grieving) by ILovedHerAndSometimesSheLovedMeToo

Summary
This is what Rumi knows to be true: Zoey and Mira don’t want her.
Zoey and Mira don’t want her, and she does not want herself, and so she goes to the only other person who might.
(She always found herself jealous of euthanized dogs)
Or
As Zoey and Mira walk towards their impending doom, into Gwi-Ma's gaping maw, the entire world waits with bated breath for a hero. For someone to come with a song, a light in the dark, to save the day. But, no one does. And as destiny falls apart and fate screams in disapproval, the Honmoon reaches out to fix a cosmic error. Again, and again. No matter how many times it takes.

Summary
“You’re glowing,” Zoey whispers, nearly reverent with her words. An observation turned praise, a prayer on her lips.
“What?” Rumi’s voice is hoarse. She turns her head awkwardly to get a view of her shoulder and cries out in alarm.
“What?” Mira gasps, waking from where she’d obviously drifted off. “Oh, shit,” her voice drops when she sees the glow emitting from Rumi’s shoulder.

Summary
No, that… that can't be it. If it's been here, like this, the whole time, she would've known. She would've understood. She would've…
Wouldn't she?
---
Rumi is still figuring out how to live in a world where she isn't constantly under pressure... and, as it turns out, safety comes with processing. And processing comes with mental breakdowns and triggers she had no idea existed.

Summary
Rumi shrugs. “It’s just… one of those days, I guess.”
She doesn’t say which kind, but she knows they’ve both had them. It’s the kind where the weight of being left out isn’t in anyone else’s actions, only in the gap she doesn’t know how to cross. Where the warmth of the room makes her ache because she can’t quite find a way to let it in.
Rumi always thought her patterns would fade once the Honmoon was sealed, but they didn’t. And now they seem to respond to her emotions.
