    Summary

    "You showed a purple werewolf the way to our house," Mira repeated the words so slowly that Yuna wondered if her mother had been replaced by a turtle.

    "She's a good werewolf," the girl added.

    "Good werewolf," the woman repeated.

    "I mean, she's nice. Kind. She helped me pick out the kindling at our campsite and only asked for meat in return! I didn't think it would hurt to keep giving her food! She doesn't even have a pack!"

    or.

    Lone wolf Rumi ends up injured and being cared for by a veterinarian.
    Then she discovers what it's like to be part of a pack again.

    Summary

    Rumi has been Spider-Woman for several years now, and she's come a long way in being the hero her city needs her to be.
    The only thing she's never quite mastered is balancing that part of her life with her personal one. Between work with Bobby as a research assistant, helping Celine out at FEAST, and maintaining her ever-growing friendship(?) with Mira and Zoey, she's surprised she has yet to mess any of it up. Knock on wood!

    But now Mira and Zoey have jobs at the Daily Bugle, and their once-silly fangirling over Spider-Woman could become a very real problem if they decide to chase after the stories.

    Add a worrying new gang called "The Demons" into the equation, and Rumi just hopes she can get a handle on all of it before her life and her city fall apart.

    Note: I imagine Rumi's suit is designed a lot like Gwen Stacy's, but with purple, gold, and white as her main colors. She has to work very hard to hide her braid in the hood lol.

    Summary

    "They would die for you. It is only fair that you do this for them, don't you think?"

    Celine was right, she's always right. They would never love her if they knew _what_ she was. This. This is something she can do for them. Make sure they get stronger and stronger until they no longer need her.

    Celine wasn't hurting her, she was helping them.

    "So, will you keep fighting me or will you help me help them?"

    Celine's voice was soft, careful, soaked in tenderness. She just wanted what was best for them.

    How can Rumi say no?

    OR
    Growing up, Celine used Rumi as a test subject to try out new weapons against demons.
    The girls find out.

    Summary

    Then, quietly, she hears Zoey ask, “How long?”

    Well. This is harder than them just killing her, Rumi thinks. Maybe she shouldn’t be surprised, because Zoey has always enjoyed the hunt, performing each fight like it’s a sort of game of cat-and-mouse, and this is...the same thing, Rumi thinks. Just another demon to be dealt with.

    “Rumi,” Mira presses, her voice closer than it had been.

    Rumi almost wants to laugh. Great. The world’s worst cat-and-mouse game, where they’re apparently treating her like a friend before they kill her. That’s great. Celine would be so proud that they’re fulfilling all their hunter duties of taking care of each other while killing demons. 

    “Rumi, I need you to talk to me,” Zoey says, her voice getting a little more insistent. “Can you tell me how long you’ve had these?”

    “Forever,” Rumi rasps out, because, well, they’ve caught her. She’s been effortlessly caught in a trap, and there’s no use trying to gnaw off her own arm to escape it. She’s tried before; her patterns exist beyond just branding on her skin.

    (or, rumi's patterns are discovered early, and maybe that's not such a bad thing)

    Summary

    You’ve read far too much about love to allow yourself to make such a careless mistake. You know all about how it sneaks up on you. How one day it’s hardly much of anything, how the next it becomes bright and loud and too much. You know that better than anyone. You’ve read thousands of iterations of it, thousands of admissions, thousands of hastily scrawled out pleas to understand that you must understand, I could have never seen this coming.

    You consider love, hate, indifference. You turn over words in your mind until they sound wrong and removed. You do this with love until you can stand to hear it echoed in your own thoughts.

    (When you realise you love her, you’ll plead to yourself in the mirror. You must understand, you’ll beg, I could have never seen this coming.)

    (or, a story about love, hate, truths, and what it means to be and love a monster)
