    Rumi is six years old the first time she thinks that she might want to die.

    It's a fleeting thought, is the thing. There and gone again so quickly she's barely even registered it, and by the time she realizes what her mind has whispered to her she already regrets it. There had been an argument with Celine—nothing particularly noteworthy, just frustrated words and a slammed door whose echo bounced through too-empty hallways—and Rumi had thought to herself, Maybe she'd love me more if I was a gravestone, too.

It was all for nothing anyway. She doesn’t even know where she’s going. It doesn’t matter, so long as it’s somewhere – anywhere – that wasn’t back there again. Back where her two most beloved friends had stood heartbroken and stung, their shimmering blue weapons drawn. The looks on their faces… oh, it’d been too much. All that disappointment. All that hate. She deserved it, all of it, but even so, Rumi can’t— can’t think of it, can’t bear it.
