    Summary

    The things they said.

    Zoey had said she had loved her before she even understood the greater purpose they were destined for. Mira had said she loved every part of her, even the parts she had hidden from them.

    No. They had always told each other they loved each other. This was nothing new. Nothing to get worked up over. This was just the sappy stuff that girls tell each other when emotions are heightened and you’ve been friends for so long. And when you’ve just faced life or death or a demon apocalypse.

    You know, just normal girl things.

    -

    Or: Zoe and Mira struggle to solidify their on-again/off-again relationship into something more serious, while also coming to terms with their feelings for Rumi. Which would be difficult enough if they weren't all still reeling from the worst month of their lives, and the trauma that threatens to pull at the threads of their bonds.

    Summary

    So that’s it, huh.

    Mira does a better job at stifling her tears than Zoey, but she still feels a few warm drops run down her cheeks.

    The hopes and dreams of being an idol at Sunlight Entertainment—hell, of being anything—are gone with a handwave from some guy in a suit and a paper that says “Thanks for auditioning”.

    Before she can storm out as quickly as possible to save what little face she has left, Mira turns on her heel and freezes at the sight of Celine, the CEO of Sunlight Entertainment, watching her. That odd woman with the purple braid and mask floats behind her, eyes gleaming.

    “Mira. Zoey.” Celine steps towards them. “Before you leave, I have an offer I’d like you to consider.”

    Or: When Mira and Zoey, both running from difficult pasts, audition to become idols at Sunlight Entertainment (famous for its mysterious headliner idol Hunter) and fail, all hopes of meeting and training under Hunter go out the window until Celine makes them a different, surprise offer: train under Celine’s unknown ward Rumi instead.

    (“Why us?” Zoey asks.

    “Honestly,” Rumi says, “I think you're both really weird.”

    Oh. Mira might kill her.)

    Summary

    Kang Rumi is the person behind the mask, she knows that.

    Ryu Rumi is the show-persona. The 'KING' that rules over HUNTR/X like it's her Kingdom, the central piece of HUNTR/X, the one who's in the middle of all the photoshoots, the one who directs the interviews. Ryu Rumi is perfect. Ryu Rumi never misses a step, has a voice that can belt in one second and go into a soft croon in the next, is the perfectly styled classical Korean beauty who *never* does anything wrong.

    Ryu Rumi is a machine designed to keep the fabric of reality solid beneath their feet so the whole world doesn't decay and fall to evil. Kang Rumi is the operator working at maximum efficiency to ensure the machine never falters.

    Or: all the times Kang Rumi tried to keep the show going.

    Summary

    Rumi is a desperate, wanting creature - this she has always known.
    Since she was a child chasing every rare pat on the shoulder or word of praise from Celine.
    Meeting the girls, the other halves of her soul, makes it so much worse.

    or, a rumi character study that quickly departs from canon
