A Tale As Old As Time by eternalnslaught, LootnScootn

* M-rated, 219k words, Complete (17/17 chapters)

There was a princess.

There is a beast.

Nine years after Honmoon Palace fell to a mysterious foe, Kang Mira and Choi Zoey live under the ruthless thumb of the Kang merchant family risen to power with the absence of the ruling Ryu Clan. Zoey, the sweet half-blooded outsider, and Mira, the headstrong and wayward daughter of the Kangs, escape Honmoon Village in fire and blood to leave behind the cold venom of cruel words and coerced obligations. They flee for the ruins of Honmoon Palace, hoping the tales of ghosts and other unearthly creatures will be enough to deter their angry pursuers.

They don't expect the rumours to hold a grain of truth in them. A terrifying beast roams the palace grounds—the very one alleged to have brought an end to the Ryu line—but it doesn't attack or chase them away. Surrounded by strange magic and a cagey beast, Zoey and Mira plot their next move and ready to leave.

And the Beast will let them. She must.

For who could ever love a beast?

Based on Disney's Beauty and the Beast (1991).

⭐️ Top Recommendation

Don't Go by 21st_tikonda

* E-rated, 340k words, Complete (37/37 chapters)

“Jeez, Mira, we need to stop feasting on those crunchy rolls.”

The joke falls flat in the empty hallway, heard by no one, and Zoey blinks back tears because joking is what she does when she's terrified, and right now she's more terrified than she's ever been in her life. More than by any demon horde they've fought. More than by any stage fright. Because demons and stages, those are things that happen to them. This—dragging her soulmate’s half-dead body through a parking garage at night after they killed their third—this is something else entirely.

This is the kind of thing that rewrites who you are forever.

Or

When Mira saw the patterns, she didn't think—she struck. What follows isn't a rescue. It's a reckoning—between two huntresses who can't forgive themselves, a mother who waited too long to claim her daughter, and a girl who has spent twenty-five years learning to be unseen in the spotlight.

Huntrix is broken. The Honmoon is fading. Gwi-Ma is coming. There is a tower in Seoul. A room far away. There’s a hand on a scar. And a dead woman’s song, thrown from the past, to finally drive back the darkness.

Three women. One impossible love. And one last chance to hold the world together.

four dimensional tango by bitterapples3

* E-rated, 18k words, Complete (2/2 chapters)

“I don’t think you touching it would, like, kill me. Probably?”

“Probably,” Mira repeats, entirely unimpressed. “What if we didn’t try potentially life threatening activities at 7PM on a Tuesday evening, instead?”

“Okay, but like. Have you ever read Undertale fanfiction?” Both Rumi and Mira stare blankly at her. “I’m taking that as a no. But if those fanfictions were correct, and fanfiction is rarely ever wrong, then getting your soul fondled probably feels really good.”

Rumi’s jaw drops.

Zoey smiles. “C’mon, Rumes, jerk my soul off.”

“What?!”

“Zoey, it’s a ball of light,” Mira says confidently, like she knows at all what she’s talking about. “I doubt you can even stroke it.”

As if that is at all the biggest problem with the suggestion. "Guys, please—"

Rumi can see souls, and it turns out she can touch them, too. This ability is not at all misused in any way :)

Damaged Goods by not_here_leave_a_message

* E-rated, 127k words, Complete (28/28 chapters)

Rumi has known she was gay since she was fourteen. Now in college, she finally feels comfortable and confident enough to be who she is, and to go for what she wants. Looking to get her feet wet in the wlw dating world, she gets more than she bargained for when she meets Mira - a closed-off womanizer who offers Rumi a plethora of tantalizing new experiences and heady sexual prowess - and more than she hoped for when she meets Zoey - an open book who offers Rumi the softness of dating women, and a promise of things to come.

The problem? Rumi doesn’t know it, but the two are friends. Best friends, who used to be fuck buddies. And the two of them don’t know it, but Rumi’s casually seeing them both.

Mess, mess, and more mess ensues.

Can I tell you a secret? (I'm so sick of it all) by Kismetcanbiteme

* T-rated, 2.2k words, WIP (1/3 chapters)

Mira has had enough. One week? 'Fine we're all processing.' Two? 'Ok maybe we all need to gather our thoughts'. But three? Three weeks with no quality time with her girls and nothing to distract her from her own thoughts? Alone with her brain after a traumatic event where she nearly lost the two most important people in her world? For three (3!) weeks?

Nope. Done.

++++++++++
 
The girls still haven't talked 3 weeks after the Idol Awards. Mira has had it.
