    Summary

    she looks back down to meet his gaze, picking up her fork to poke at her cold food distractedly.

    “they just get so… cuddly. and touchy-feely, i guess.”

    there’s a brief, silent pause in which rumi and jinu stare at each other with what feels like the weight of the world on their shoulders. jinu eventually breaks first.

    “oh my god,” he breathes out the breath he didn’t even realise he was holding harshly before smothering his face into his hands.

    “what?” rumi snaps defensively, her brows tightening into a tiny, self-conscious frown.

    “nothing,” he sighs, dragging his hands down his face. “i just can’t believe that your problem is two of the hottest women on campus wanting to cuddle with you after sex.”

    or,

    the one where rumi doesn't quite understand what aftercare is, and freaks out about it just a bit.

    Summary

    She pulled the collar of her shirt aside and looked down at her arm, and suddenly the pain was lost to the panic. The only reason she didn’t vomit was because the fear that surged through her made her entire body seize up. Her ears rang. Her vision swam. She looked again. This couldn’t be happening.

    But it was.

    Her patterns were back.

    Rumi losing her patterns doesn't mean she lost her shame.

    Summary

    Mira's okay. Mira's okay. Mira's okay.

    Zoey’s okay. Zoey's okay. Zoey's okay.

    You're okay. You're okay. You're okay.

    It just didn't feel right—didn't feel like she meant it enough. Her mind kept drifting restlessly and she couldn't focus on the words, on what she wanted them to mean.

    She took an unsteady breath and started again.

    Rumi has lived with rules all her life, rules that only apply to her and don't make sense to anyone else, so it isn't weird that she keeps developing more.

    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

    It’s a very common problem to be intimidated into lying about your sexual history to a partner and then have to ‘correct’ that lie by enlisting the ‘casual’ sexual help of your hunky jock nemesis.

    That is, if your name is Lena Luthor.

    (It’s that enemies to friends to lovers college fwb that everyone has done and now I’m doing it too hurrah for this big ol cake)
