    Summary

    It had been a long time since they’d had the talk, where Mira went over the ways she was okay being touched (a very short list) and what she was open to doing in return (a much longer one). She’d been nervous, expecting the other girls to see her limited options as a rejection of any kind of intimacy with them, but neither had ever expressed anything other than full support.

    or:

    Mira has a little bit of fun with Rumi, Zoey returns from her trip early, they all get to feel very loved.

    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.

    Rumi moves in with two strangers and they fall in love boom

    Summary

    she looks back down to meet his gaze, picking up her fork to poke at her cold food distractedly.

    “they just get so… cuddly. and touchy-feely, i guess.”

    there’s a brief, silent pause in which rumi and jinu stare at each other with what feels like the weight of the world on their shoulders. jinu eventually breaks first.

    “oh my god,” he breathes out the breath he didn’t even realise he was holding harshly before smothering his face into his hands.

    “what?” rumi snaps defensively, her brows tightening into a tiny, self-conscious frown.

    “nothing,” he sighs, dragging his hands down his face. “i just can’t believe that your problem is two of the hottest women on campus wanting to cuddle with you after sex.”

    or,

    the one where rumi doesn't quite understand what aftercare is, and freaks out about it just a bit.

    Summary

    She pulled the collar of her shirt aside and looked down at her arm, and suddenly the pain was lost to the panic. The only reason she didn’t vomit was because the fear that surged through her made her entire body seize up. Her ears rang. Her vision swam. She looked again. This couldn’t be happening.

    But it was.

    Her patterns were back.

    Rumi losing her patterns doesn't mean she lost her shame.

    Summary

    Mira's okay. Mira's okay. Mira's okay.

    Zoey’s okay. Zoey's okay. Zoey's okay.

    You're okay. You're okay. You're okay.

    It just didn't feel right—didn't feel like she meant it enough. Her mind kept drifting restlessly and she couldn't focus on the words, on what she wanted them to mean.

    She took an unsteady breath and started again.

    Rumi has lived with rules all her life, rules that only apply to her and don't make sense to anyone else, so it isn't weird that she keeps developing more.
