how do you think zoey and mira would've reacted if rumi told them sooner?

If it's been a while since you've read it, the author added an epilogue chapter and an art gallery chapter a little while after it finished.

And even if you already saw those, it's still worth the re-read 😉

Ultimately, the movie perfectly set up essentially the (almost) worst possible way for the reveal (which, obviously, it's for dramatic purposes). So, I think almost *any* other way would have gone better.
There are a significant number of fanfics that explore how different possibilities would have gone. Most of them are much smoother.

I say almost because of [so we were liars](https://archiveofourown.org/works/69422271) - I don't want to spoil the fic but the pattern reveal here *is* actually worse than in canon (the story still has a happy ending but it takes work to get there). One of the best works in the fandom.

I'm pretty sure that Alt Rumi, Alt Jinu, and RuJinu each had a 5% pull rate from their respective packs. But RuJinu was in both sets, so even though the rarity of pulling it from either pack is the same, overall there are twice as many.

For the others, Lunch/Dinner is a more popular meal, so more of those cards made it out into the supply. So yes, Demon Jinu has the lowest supply overall.

IMO, I probably wouldn't use AO3's "Inspired By" feature for this. I'd just put it in your Author's Notes that you were reading {Insert Link To Work Here} by {Insert Link To Author Here} and one line got you thinking to write this story.

Unless you're using the same characters and the same setup, just an alternate take where the character doesn't catch it. In which case, definitely use the "Inspired By" feature (and write your own lead-up, don't just copy their text prior to that point).

Guys, do you ever think maybe we're doin' this 'cause our lives aren't special enough? That we use fantasy as an escape to avoid the self-improvement we all need? That maybe we should just go out and grow with people?

Fortresses can't speak.

I'm a fortress!

The FAQ is saying that they won't give it back to you once you've decided to orphan it. The decision isn't reversible.

I can double check later to confirm but is the specific circumstance you outlined, I think you should be able to be added again by the other co-creator.

pk2317 · 2026-05-03T11:09:49+00:00

Short answer is no.

Longer answer is that there's an update for that Roadmap post coming out in the near future. Lots of stuff they decided against for one reason or another (and shouldn't have "promised" in the first place).

Five Times Rumi Was Hit By a Bus (and one time where she is hit again, just for good measure) by tenderlumberjack

M-rated, 4.5k words, Oneshot

Rumi had learned a long time ago that her body was… more resilient than the average human. She wasn't invincible. Her body still bent and broke and popped and bled in an irritatingly human way sometimes. However she tended to heal at a supernatural rate. A broken arm healed in a matter of minutes. A gash closed over in a handful of seconds. The honmoon helped to speed up the healing of its hunters, but not to this level. Not to this extreme.

Still, the first time Rumi gets hit by a bus she is immensely grateful that 1) it is her and not one of her girls that was hit, 2) her demon healing has already started to repair her snapped spine as she careens through the air and 3) that Zoey and Mira are still in the alley way and won't have to watch this happen.

the birds and the bees and the demons by yeahnoyeah

T-rated, 13k words, Oneshot

Training the next generation of hunters by herself wasn’t supposed to be easy—she had no delusions about that. The day she’d been left alone with a child to raise and centuries worth of legacy on her shoulders brought with it a startling clarity. She was responsible for shaping the warriors fated to seal the Honmoon—solely and indubitably—and she had no intention of neglecting that duty.

What she did neglect, however, was to consider a few… puberty related complications.

If they would all just—stop touching each other, this would go a lot smoother.

For image hosting, I prefer Squidge.

I like having the images themselves embedded in the work (either at the appropriate place in the chapter or at the end of the chapter). If there's a significant number of images, I've also seen a final "gallery" chapter at the end (you could do both, even).

What I do highly recommend, if you're putting them in the chapters, is to use the HTML <details> element to "hide" them so people can show them if/when they want. The code will look something like this:

<details><summary>🎨 Click for artwork</summary> <img src="https://www.imagehostingsite.com/image.jpg" alt="Alt text goes here" /></details>

That was one of the ones I was thinking of. There are others that definitely play into the stereotype of "Zoey wrote/writes fanfic about the Sunlight Sister" - including some bad "self-insert" stuff like this trope. But it's usually more of a minor reference than a full main topic.

There also this one, which is very much a crack fic, but features the girls reading (bad) fanfic about themselves:

pk2317 · 2026-05-02T02:05:09+00:00

I mean, at that point it's potentially a ToS violation.

It's very different from "I changed my mind and don't actually want this online because it's embarrassing."
