Summary
Yang was not poor. She refused to acknowledge it. She had her daily bread, she had clothes that weren't holey or dirty, and she had a roof over her head. But Yang was no fool. She hunted day and night, week after week; she hauled stone in town and trained horses for lords with better things to do- she worked for that bread and those clothes, and she never let herself forget that she and her father were the only things keeping her little sister comfortable; belly full of bread, cleaned shoes and dresses, and all the freedom that ignorant bliss can buy you.
Blake was not poor. She knew this like she knew how to chew; like she knew so thoroughly how to swallow; like she knew how to stomach despicability. Oh yes, Blake had it all, alright. She had gowns, and crowns, and gossamer ropes with which to practice her nooses. But Blake was no fool. Nor was she so desperate for reprieve that she'd stoop so low; being a prisoner of war in a foreign castle was one thing, it was another to be married to your captor. For all her supposed title should have granted her, and for having much... Blake had nothing. Nothing but her common sense. And her common sense told her to run.

Blake and Yang, Yang and Blake, BlakeandYang, YangandBlake—
No matter the photo, the view, it’s always them.
Though their circumstances do vary, people say they saw them with a child, others don’t, some say they’re happy and carefree, others swear they’re recovering from hell, but no matter the perspective—

Summary
Blake has never been one for panicking. She prides herself on keeping her emotions in check, on examining every angle of a problem before coming to a conclusion. She kept her cool when the military base had snuffed them out immediately. She stayed calm during the combat that ensued. She even stayed collected when they were falling hundreds of feet back down to earth after a hasty escape.
But now, looking at team JOYR’s aura stats? Seeing Oscar’s broken completely, and Yang almost joining him? She isn’t going to blame herself when her breathing starts to quicken as she sends Yang multiple messages, not getting a single one in return. Nor is she going to blame herself when she starts sprinting back to the hideout when she finally, finally gets a message from Jaune (not Yang, why can’t Yang message her?).

Summary
Based off of this prompt by shipsnthenight: Maggie’s aunt lives in Midvale, so Maggie has been living there since she was 14. She and Alex have been together since they were 16. Now it’s the end of senior year, Alex and Maggie are in Alex’s room. Alex is stuck writing the valedictorian speech while staring at her letter of admission to Stanford, while Maggie, who is going to be joining the miliary in 3 months, is messing around with her guitar waiting for her girl to be finished before they join the others (superfriends) on the beach where the fire is already going and the party to celebrate the end of senior year and Alex’s last amazing victory in a regional surfing competition is about to start. Alex is frustrated and crumples up her speech notes for the fifth time, Maggie then puts away the guitar and joins Alex on the bed. The girl is worried that they won’t be able to make it work long distance and is also scared to death by what could happen to Maggie, but there’s no way they’re splitting up, so they’ll have to find a way. So basically the rest of the story is going to be the 3 months of summer together, and the next however long years of Alex in college and Maggie in the military.
So anyway please enjoy.

Summary
From the moment she could walk, Rumi knew exactly who she was supposed to be - who the world NEEDED her to be. She was meant to be a pop star, entertaining the masses, following in the footsteps of her mother before her. She was meant to be a hunter, protecting the masses from all of demon-kind. She was meant to be the end, the final nail in the coffin that would bury Gwi-Ma once and for all.
And she was.
The war was over. They won! The world was safe now, and the girls of HUNTR/X finally had space to breathe again... and with that, Rumi also had the space to figure out who she wanted to be. Rumi had spent so much time molding herself to what the world wanted, she didn't know what it meant to just BE Rumi. Not the pop star, the huntress the savior, just... Rumi.
She didn't know where this self-exploration would lead her, but at least she had her girls by her side to --
Make things harder?
Oh boy, this might be more of a challenge than she thought it would be...

Summary
"Cece?" Rumi asked, twisting the deep blue thread which lead from her pinky to Celine's in her grasp. "What do all the colors mean?"
Celine paused her work, something with a computer Rumi didn't understand. She was starting to figure that out, there were many things she didn't understand. But that just meant she had more questions to ask, and Celine would always answer them.
"This one-" Celine tugged at their shared thread. "Means you are family to me. It means I love you."
"Oh." Rumi didn't need a thread to tell her Celine loved her. "What do all the others mean?"
Or. A strings-of-fate soulmate AU, except Hunters are a bit weird

Summary
Tai leaving for work wakes her up.
Her eyes feel wet and dry at the same time. Like all the moisture has collected at her waterline.
Swallowing hurts. Her head hurts. Everything hurts as she climbs out of bed. She bangs on Ruby's door in the hallway, foregoing her usual yelling for her to wake up.
She has to hold onto the banister the entire way down the stairs. Both feet touch every step because she's not sure she won't slip if they don't. It's embarrassing, really.
The egg carton is nearly empty as she pulls it out of the fridge.
She washes her hands in cold water, ignoring the sting while the suds flow down the drain. She leans her hip hard against the counter edge, shaky and miserable until she hears Ruby's feet thump against the floor upstairs.

Summary
There’s a deafening pounding in Rumi’s skull and a ringing in her ears when she attempts to draw a breath and is left dissatisfied. Her knees are wobbling when her left hand reaches for the source of all her issues - the blooming red patch in her grey hoodie. Rumi barely grazes the torn fabric and her hand comes away drenched in crimson.
Someone is calling her name, but it’s muffled and indiscernible.
Rumi’s chest trembles when she tries to wrangle some air into her lungs, but she can’t tell if she’s successful or not.
She barely feels the jolt of pain when her knees and hands hit the pavement. Her vision is blurring, refusing to focus on the figure running toward her.
Rumi’s entire world shifts. White-hot pain blooms near her left eye. It’s only then that she realizes she’s completely crumpled on the ground and her face has taken all the impact on the rough concrete.
There’s a guttural, excruciating scream that cuts through some of the ringing in her head, followed by frantic, soft hands rolling her onto her uninjured side.

OR: Rumi jumps in front of a demon for Zoey... nearly to her demise.
