Summary
Frieren’s letter, when it finally comes, arrives far earlier than expected.
It’s not much to write home about. Just a page or so of silly anecdotes and a few simple spells she’s looking forward to showing him soon. Heiter tucks it into the drawer besides the others with a rueful smile; and two letters over fifty years becomes three over fifty-seven.

Summary
“Annabeth,” says Thalia gently.
“He needs a master, Thals,” comes the automatic reply.
It’s more of a whine at this point, really. They’ve tried almost everything. Scoured town after town in search of a mentor. What’s one more failure to a pile of them? Nevermind that she cannot teach what she does not know. Nevermind that he could die— She shudders, blinking back tears as her sister pulls her into a hug. It’s as warm and comforting as always; and Annabeth curses the way she melts into it.
“No,” whispers Thalia, (and Annabeth is eleven and the sands shift, but the earth doesn’t; and she just doesn’t understand.) “He needs you.”
Or, Annabeth Chase is not an earthbender. Not really.

Just because you can speak directly to your would-be assassin's soul, doesn't mean friendship's any easier to navigate.

Summary
A collection of shorter, more family-centered scenes from the Toy Soldier AU.
Still not in chronological order, because I don’t know what that means.
(This work is part of a series written in non-chronological order and as such, each entry is written to stand alone to the best of its ability while still keeping continuity with the rest of the AU. That being said, it is encouraged to start with "Toy Soldier" to get a gist of the story.
Again, this series can be read in any order with the basic premise being that Spinel has been a Crystal Gem since the war.)

Summary
The mirror itself is simple. A somewhat ornate oval frame gilded in tarnished silver. One could even almost say it was pretty.
She shudders at the thought.
Or, history repeats in unsettling ways.
(A CG!Spinel story set during S1E25: Mirror Gem and S1E26: Ocean Gem.)

Summary
The aftermath is quiet. When their feet touch back down to the Namsan Tower stage and the bright sunlight cast as they formed new honmoon fades away, night reclaiming Seoul, Rumi doesn't hear the thousands upon thousands of fans surrounding them. She doesn't hear much of anything. She doesn't feel much of anything. It's like her world has narrowed to her hands, and Zoey and Mira's hands clasped in them. But even that feels barely there. She's barely there.
They won. Now they have all the time in the world to pick up the pieces. And for Rumi to learn how to live a life that isn't just waiting to die.
UPDATE: it'll take a bit but we are in fact headed towards Polytrix before this fic ends cuz I NEED IT.
Title based on the beautiful song "Waiting to Die" by Harrison Boe

Summary
"Which means you," Dr. Choi turns to the other woman, "are my two o'clock appointment. Ryu Rumi?"
"Yes," she says, standing up and extending her hand for a handshake. She has a diplomatic smile on her face, charming and practiced to perfection. Mira can hardly imagine what it's like to be on the receiving end of it.
Dr. Choi, however, is apparently immune. She puts one hand on her waist and looks up at Rumi with a glare. She holds Rumi's client file up with her other.
"Rumi-nim, respectfully, this is the worst intake form I've ever seen in my life. "
Mira holds back a snicker.
Or what if Rumi was werewolf but also was a college professor, and what if Zoey was a vet, and what if Mira had 5 cats and one had IBS too, and they were in a romantic comedy what then

Summary
She grabbed a couple of painkillers from the cabinet and swallowed them with a handful of water from the sink. Her hands shook as she brought the water to her mouth.
Rumi had time. She could finally focus on something other than faults and fears, and she intended to focus on things that mattered.
She'd be feeling better in a couple of weeks, tops.
An exploration of love in the face of impending loss.
or-
What if being a hybrid didn't make Rumi longer lived--what if it did the opposite?

Summary
A daemon is the representation of one’s soul. Rumi can hide and lie all she wants, but she cannot outrun the truth that is Eunwoo.
Rumi used to try and look at the upsides, that Eunwoo had settled the way they did to be a better hunter, to be stronger against the demons.
Tigers are one of the few animals who hunt humans too.
Zoey told her that fact excitedly after the first hunt that Eunwoo helped with. There was no suspicion behind it, no malice. Zoey would never. It was said as one of at least twenty tiger facts the younger girl had listed off over her bowl of fish cake soup.
Rumi has never forgotten.
When Eunwoo blends into the shadows, when they tread softly, trailing behind Mira and Zoey, she wonders. When Byeol or Jun get near and Eunwoo seems to bask in their presence, she wonders. When Eunwoo has their bright gaze pinned on Seung and Celine, tracking every move the pair makes, Rumi cannot help but wonder if Eunwoo is eyeing the souls as a future meal.
Eunwoo is a hunter.
Rumi isn’t sure what of.

Summary
“Oh, she is stoned stoned,” Mira says.
Zoey's eyes are alight with mirth, but they soften with something fonder. “Okay, but why is she so adorable?”
“Because she's Rumi,” Mira sighs. “We should probably take her to bed.”
Zoey's face turns dramatic, clutching fake pearls around her neck. “You wanna bone now? In her current state?”
“Not like that, dumbass!” Mira snaps back, but her reddening cheeks remove any bite from her words.
“I think I'm tilting.”
Both girls’ attention returns to Rumi, who, unsurprisingly, is not tilting.
So she purrs. What about catnip?
