    Summary

    Rumi’s mind wanders, desperate for a change of subject. Her gaze lands on the two women who’ve been repeatedly plaguing her mind ever since she saw them step out of the limousine. Mira grins and sips on her drink, listening intently to whatever Zoey’s saying, the shorter girl gesticulating her hands wildly in the air. An ache settles in Rumi’s sternum, and that thought, that possibility—the possibility that this show can actually work—rattles through her skull.

    “Hey, Celine?” she starts, not looking away from the view ahead of her. “I know it’s unconventional, but can I give out two First Impression Roses?”

    Celine considers her words and follows her gaze. She presses her lips into a thin line, then she shrugs in acceptance. “Sure. After all, you’re the Bachelorette.”

    Polyamory is just exponents on feelings.

    Summary

    After a lifetime of self-denial, Rumi finally finds herself being touched. A lot. And maybe it’s the demon in her, greedy, ravenous, insatiable, that just can’t get enough, just keeps demanding more and more and more. But she’s terrified of crossing the invisible boundary into too much.

    Or: Rumi and physical touch (a love story).

    Summary

    “You’re too pretty to be a nun,” she—the patient, the charming patient, Ava Silva, 19, no family, paralyzed from the neck down—tells Beatrice when she walks into the room.

    Beatrice doesn't know what to say to that. She doesn’t spend much time looking at herself except to smooth out her hair, to make sure there are no stray pieces of lint on her shirt. She definitely hasn’t thought about the word pretty in relation to herself.

    “I’m not,” she tells Ava directly.

    “Not pretty or not a nun?"

    Summary

    “I’m not helping Agatha pull off a scheme,” Rio asserted, though not even she believed herself, “I’m trying to stop her before she goes into labor in the auditorium.”

    Lilia’s face contorted in pity, “Well,” She said, “Good luck with that.”

    Or,

    Mild-mannered high school soccer coach Rio Vidal gets roped into a scheme to help her 9 months’ pregnant coworker put on the opening night performance of The Crucible that will save the school theater department.

    Summary

    “Ooh, waiting for someone special?” Sharon asks with a wink.

    “No,” Agatha says, a little too quickly. “I just happen to know that someone has that ticket and that someone is not you.”

    “This someone wouldn’t happen to be that sharp dressed lady who is always knocking on your door?”

    “That’s my tax agent, Sharon,” Agatha says, like Sharon is an idiot. Sharon is an idiot. She’s also right, but that’s really not the point.

    __

    IRS Agent Rio Vidal and Enemy Of The State Agatha Harkness set aside their differences to go see a high school musical and it goes as well as you’d expect.
