    Summary

    Zoey's eyes widen a fraction while she waits for an answer, hair tumbling out of place as she tilts her head sideways and Mira becomes acutely aware that she's mesmerized by a woman she's known for less than an hour.

    Her lips curve upwards and Mira wonders how a smile can look so at home on someone's face.

    She's fucked. Utterly and completely fucked.

    - or -

    Dancer and professional lovergirl Mira meets Zoey, owner of Ink & Honey during a typhoon. She walks away that evening wondering if Zoey really is sunshine personified or if she's simply lonely and latching on to any warmth and kindness sent her way.

    When she meets Zoey's long-term queer platonic partner and horror video game icon Ryu Rumi and their daughter Hana, she thinks she's in over her head - if she can't keep a family of her own, what right does she have to destroy someone else's?

    Summary

    “You are not fooling us.” Mira states, coldly.
    “Where’s Rumi, demon?” Zoey hisses maliciously.
    “What!? Zoey, Mira, it’s me!”
    She takes a step back, hands raised. Her girls are behaving as if they saw her patterns, but… she made sure they were not visible?
    “Zoey, look, we call Celine, she can confirm-”
    “No need! Come on. We believe you.” Zoey cheerfully says, still smiling. “Rumi, everything’s OK. We were just thrown off by your ruined costume.”
    “However…”, Zoey uses her left index finger to point down, “…your patterns are visible on your tummy.”
    Horrified, Rumi looks down on her midriff, and lo and behold, three centimeters of jagged purple lines are visible on her skin!
    “Bingo! How fun!” Zoey exclaims, her distraction working.
    Rumi feels a hit on her left shoulder, something like a solid punch, not painful but it throws her off to the side making her stumble. She watches in fascinated disbelief the rear portion of a Shin-kal buried in her shoulder, with its gold filigree tassel gently swaying, blood darkening the fabric around the hilt.

    Summary

    So that’s it, huh.

    Mira does a better job at stifling her tears than Zoey, but she still feels a few warm drops run down her cheeks.

    The hopes and dreams of being an idol at Sunlight Entertainment—hell, of being anything—are gone with a handwave from some guy in a suit and a paper that says “Thanks for auditioning”.

    Before she can storm out as quickly as possible to save what little face she has left, Mira turns on her heel and freezes at the sight of Celine, the CEO of Sunlight Entertainment, watching her. That odd woman with the purple braid and mask floats behind her, eyes gleaming.

    “Mira. Zoey.” Celine steps towards them. “Before you leave, I have an offer I’d like you to consider.”

    Or: When Mira and Zoey, both running from difficult pasts, audition to become idols at Sunlight Entertainment (famous for its mysterious headliner idol Hunter) and fail, all hopes of meeting and training under Hunter go out the window until Celine makes them a different, surprise offer: train under Celine’s unknown ward Rumi instead.

    (“Why us?” Zoey asks.

    “Honestly,” Rumi says, “I think you're both really weird.”

    Oh. Mira might kill her.)

    Summary

    Letting someone into your head means letting them know you to your core, and then losing them means being alone in a way you never could have been before.

    Ranger Ryu Rumi, former pilot of the legendary Mark IV jaeger Demon Song and a survivor of the Jaeger Program's golden age, before everything went wrong and the war turned against them, has paid that price. Once the pride of the Shatterdome, now she's scarred and alone, and the sheer weight of the loss has her resigned to that fate.

    So failed cadets Mira and Zoey, humanity’s last hope, have no place in her lonely world. But with the Breach growing more active again, Rumi is forced to return to the Shatterdome to teach them how to love what she lost, and to hold on to each other harder than anyone outside of the Drift ever could.

    But the Drift is a tricky thing, it calls to the heart and soul, so they start to want to hold on to her too, even as she tries to stay away. Because the Drift already ruined her once, and she doesn't have the strength to risk it happening again.

    Summary

    The Honmoon has been fractured for a long time, and from its tears arose behemoths who pose an existential threat to humanity.

    And so to fight monsters, they became monsters. Jaegars, effectively giant mechs, we’re built to hunt and destroy these demons.

    Rumi, in the shadow of her mother’s legacy, is slated to become a pilot of these massive weapons. But a larger and far darker shadow also hangs on her shoulders, one that she can’t afford to let her co-pilots learn. The fate of the Honmoon, and the world depends on it.
