I'm just saying... Rumi wears two padlocks on her wrist during the Idol Awards...
"Oh, but they probably didn't put those outfits together themselves, it doesn't mean any thin-"
NO. WRONG! You know why?
Becasue she's still wearing them in the fuckin spotify wrapped video.
That is a specific choice made post-release of the movie. That was a choice damnnit!
someone said mira can't be a lesbian
so now mira is a trans guy that can kiss girls and be straight
polytrix to waco, texas by ethel cain that i made a whileeee ago. specifically posting this for @markatetreebark 🙂↕️
post-canon polytrix is so funny to me because i'm just constantly imagining rumi saying the most concerning thoughts known to man and zoey + mira just have to Look At Her and go "?? how did you even make it this far. girl."
new systems for communication get put in place and zoey + mira are trying REALLY hard to not make things a big deal for rumi, who is notoriously flighty and skittish and easily embarrassed and feels nothing but shame and is EXCEEDINGLY stubborn and WILL in fact shut the fuck up and never talk about a problem again if she feels she's being mocked, so a lot of it is just:
r: i used to dream about celine killing me when i was a kid. normal?
m: [through gritted teeth] Not Normal
it's also a lot of:
r: i habitually and obsessively checked and counted my patterns every day until like last week. Would You Have Done That. If You Had Them.
z: [with 50 tabs about OCD open on her phone] hm no i don't think i would have babe. thanks for telling me though!
it gets to a point where rumi will walk into a room where zoey + mira are and she'll stand there for a while, clearly contemplating, before going "i have thoughts about you guys brutally murdering me. thoughts? opinions? feelings? Normal Or Not Normal?" and mira is busy miserably biting back wails of anguish while zoey nervously laughs and goes "ohhhh that one's probably Not Normal rumi!"
rumi loves this game (zoey and mira do not love this game) because it lets her express what she's feeling without having to actually like. really talk about it. and plus the answers mira and zoey give her are short and to the point, Normal or Not Normal, and so that helps with her putting together how very Not Normal her entire life has been
she stops loving this game when zoey and mira start asking Her things back. like:
m: do you think it's normal or not normal to have expected us to hurt you
r: [sweating, eyeing the nearest window] Norm. Norm...al?
z: [staring progressively harder] haha that's soooo interesting. Why Do You Think That.
r: Anyways. normal or not normal you love me you love me and you wouldn't make me answer that question. if you make me answer that question you hate me. do you hate me. normal or not normal. Please God Don't Make Me Answer That Question

the demo version of what it sounds like is eating me alive 😀 so i made this quick polytrix edit
me for months: god what if they'd reprised free but with the girls cuz like, Rumi didn't NEED to be fixed, she just needed to accept herself and be accepted
Where's that post about gay people breaking up when they weren't even together to begin with ? ioajrgoiaejr
