    Summary

    Rumi turns the honmoon gold.

    The golden honmoon repays her by turning her back into a nine year old.

    No one is pleased with this result.

    Rumi is de-aged, on stage, right after singing Golden at the Idol Awards. Bobby has to spin it. Mira and Zoey have to hide it and fix it. Jinu tries to help but makes everything worse. Celine questions the wisdom of her decision to never pick up a parenting book, all while Tiny Rumi runs amok.

    Summary

    The bathhouse ambush follows the same old script, the same old plot.

    He changes it up, just a tad. Rumi holds out her sword to him, both of them circling each other in a dance, and Jinu decides screw it.

    He steps forward, she prepares for war, but the tip of her sword touches his chest, right where his heart should be. The sword glows and crackles, reacting to him, pulsing in time with his breath; Rumi’s eyes dart to it then back on Jinu, wide and unsure.

    He smiles. “Hey Rumi, what am I supposed to do?”

    And then he walks into her blade. It pierces him true, and he relishes holding her, if only for a mere fraction of a second, their time limited.

    Just when things start to fade away, he hears it, barely: “J-Jinu?”


    Rumi’s single word keeps echoing in his head, all he can hear. She shouldn’t have known his name yet. She shouldn’t have that gentle a tone yet.


    Every time Jinu dies, he's flung back in time to right after the first Soda Pop performance. Why and how, he knows not. All he knows is Rumi is there with his soul each and every time.

    Summary

    It's been just over seven months since Dys last saw Sol when she comes marching over the ridges, plants her fists on her hips, and announces, "You need to come home."

    (The ridge confession, expanded.)

    Summary

    “...I like Dys more,” he returns, almost too low for Dys to hear. It's so low that he wonders if he even heard Sol right.

    “Oh? Is that right? Well, I’m not a jealous person. I don't mind sharing.”

    Something happens in Dys’s chest in that moment - it feels like someone’s opened his ribs and shoved their fist inside, squeezing his lungs so tightly that he can't even attempt a breath. If he felt flushed from resentment before, it's nothing compared to now. Maybe Marz isn't a jealous person, but Dys is.
