    Summary

    Mira's brows twitch.
    "I… I know now isn't the time, but I'm realizing that actually I haven't seen you get sick. Like, ever. Is that—"
    "A demon thing?" Rumi whispers. "Probably. Celine always said I had a strong immune system."
    Mira makes a face. One that Rumi would've struggled to decipher even if her vision wasn't so blurry.
    "Celine… knows?"

    ~

    In the immediate aftermath of Namsan tower, Rumi wakes up the following morning sick as a dog. Zoey and Mira help her through it, while also confronting their emotions and assumptions about the events of the last 24 hours.

    Summary

    Rumi touched her fingers to her ribs. She could feel the heat radiating from her skin, even through her clothes. A distant, miserable part of her said, this is going to hurt.

    She pushed her fingers down.

    The rib shifted.

    The thing about telling one very big lie is that it requires a foundation of hundreds of smaller lies to hold it up, lies such as "I'm fine," and "nothing's broken," and "it doesn't hurt."

    Rumi finds this out the hard way.

    Summary

    Once, when she was ten years old, Rumi had cut herself with her saingeom. 

    It hadn’t been a deliberate attempt to hurt herself, at least not consciously. It was an act of pure curiosity.

    Nothing more.

    The soul woven blades each Hunter carried into battle were harmless to humans, bouncing off the spiritually unaware like rubber and impacting other Hunters like wooden training weapons, painful but mostly harmless.

    Demons, by contrast, burst into stardust with a single, solid blow from the sharp edge, with only larger Dokkaebi and stronger Jeosung requiring multiple strikes.

    What would happen to her? Half Hunter, Half Demon, two opposites forced together? Would it hurt her? Would it even break her skin?

    Summary

    Old habits died hard so what Celine did was walk down the hall to Mira's room just as the door swung open to reveal a wide-eyed and startled Zoey.

    Zoey's buns had fallen apart, she was wearing Mira's glasses askew and one of Rumi's night shirts hung loosely on her frame.

    Zoey glanced behind her, then back at Celine, "This isn't what it looks like!"

    Rumi covered her face with both of her hands as Mira said, "Twister got out of hand."

    Or, Celine picks the wrong time to visit the girls and then things escalate.
