Summary
"I'm happy you're here, you know that?" Rumi says. "Not just for me, but for you. I'm really glad you got a second chance."
"I am too," Jinu whispers. "I would've died for you. I came so close—"
She kisses his knuckles again, eyes stinging a little. "I know."
He speaks in a rush, as if worried that she won't let him finish. "I'm glad I didn't. I like being alive. But—you gave me something so important, I didn't know any other way to give you something back. I didn't feel like I had anything worth giving, except my life, and my soul—I've spent so long just hating myself, wasting it, but if I could've given it to you—"
"Jinu," Rumi says, "Jinu."
"You gave me my soul back," he says wetly, squeezing her hand. "And now... I'm doing my best to take care of it."
Or: Rumi's demon heritage, Jinu's newfound soul, Zoey and Mira's love that now has a safe place to land. Everything is gentle, and everyone lives.

Summary
Rumi adds, dismissively sweet, "Do you even know your way around a sword?"
A beat.
To his credit, Jinu isn't always predictable.
Between one blink and the next, Rumi throws her blade up with a harsh clang! as a curved hwando comes flashing towards her throat, wreathed in sickly pink fire and little more than a wicked blur in Jinu's hands that flings up a spray of discordant sparks where it clashes against her own, sending a hard jolt through her arms—and Jinu grins down at her over their crossed blades, the tip of a fang peeking out crookedly over his bottom lip.
"I don't know," he says, eyes dancing. "You tell me."
Or: Rumi discovers that Jinu can use a sword. They unlock a new dimension to their fighting-as-flirting strategy.

Summary
“Hermes,” Hades interrupts, taking his seat between Hermes and Nyx. He considers the blanket before them, the assorted odds and ends—a child’s sword, a length of ivy brought here who knows how, a small pile of emeralds, a laurel crown not so unlike Hades own that raises a number of questions, a vial of—
“Is that blood?” Hades asks.
“No idea,” Hermes says brightly. “Hypnos picked everything out.”
—blood, why did he allow Hypnos to arrange this?

Summary
She has Night in her veins, always will — like all Nyx’s children, her ichor runs black, shot through with starlight — and she can slip away from day’s harsh revelations as easily as a comet darts behind a passing cloud. She’s modest, after all, for the uninvited guest that she is: just here to drop off her little gift on the table. A little something from the Garden of the Hesperides, just a nice golden apple done up with a bit of style.
Kallisti, she’s carved into it.
For the fairest.
