    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

    “I lost everything.” Blake’s voice breaks, the end of her word vanishing in a croak.

    “Like what?” Yang demands, pushing on despite the fact that she wants to drop everything. The past pieces of herself—of them—are already on the floor at their feet. There are fragments and shards cluttered beneath them and Yang is done with attempting to find enough glue to hold herself together. “What have you possibly lost, Blake?”

    “I lost my home.” You. “I lost my happiness.” You. “I lost the only person I’ve ever loved.”

    Summary

    Weiss has always been put-off with Yang, ever since high school.
    The bubbly blonde was just as popular as she was, but she was always a bit too loud, a bit too friendly, a bit too comfortable, a bit too affectionate. But she was the older sister of Ruby, Weiss's best friend, which meant she had to be put up with and tolerated.
    The hugs, the kind words, the smiles and supportive looks.
    But it then becomes a good thing that Weiss has her phone number when Ruby has to kick her out of their apartment and leave Weiss stranded with nowhere to go in the beginning of winter.

    A spare room waiting for her until other options are available, Weiss swallows her pride and calls for help, only for Yang to inadvertently lead her into the curious and mysterious gaze of fellow housemate and alluring temptation Blake Belladonna.
    With the winter snow tumbling down and kept indoors to bundle against the winds, Weiss finds herself trying to answer questions about herself that Blake's playful smile doesn't even know it's asking.
