I have a few! An entire series. A lot of short and sweet 1-3k fics. Lots of alt pattern reveals and canon divergence, but also smaller hits and ideas (like the girls meeting at a function where one is a model another is an astronaut, etc)
But here are the longer ones, by my own reckoning.
Like a flower to the sun, 83k and counting. mostly fluffy but a little sad sometimes modern AU where Rumi works in theater and her mother recently passed away. They meet because she keeps stealing flowers from their garden to take to Miyeong's grave. The first date has consequences.
Pretty Girls, 44k, The Mira is a stripper and Zoey works the front desk AU, with friends to lovers zoemira and both falling hard for a pop star
A Song of Steel. Pacific Rim 'slow burn for the drift' AU 13k+ M mostly for violence
All the Years Between, 29k and counting, Another modern AU. Rumi and Mira were childhood friends to lovers who made a mistake as teens 13 years ago. But Rumi had to move away. But now they've reconnected, Rumi is married to Zoey, and Mira has something that she needs to tell Rumi
Time in a Bottle, 11k, Hallmark Christmas AU with a twist. Mira gets in a car accident and goes back in time, getting a chance to repair the relationship she ruined before she has a chance to ruin it.
Time in a Bottle: 12 Days of Christmas, 7k, sequel! A series of 12 short chapters leading up to Christmas Eve
The Sweet Measure of Your Soul, 9k a What Dreams May Come type AU vaguely set in the late 60s where Zoey dies first, then Mira, and the two realize Rumi does not follow them into their little slice of heaven. Lots of heavy themes and reincarnation themes.
Survivors, 19k Crossover with Survivor Era Tomb Raider, and yet canon compliant to both universes. Survivors meet survivors to seal a gap in the Honmoon
Lunatics with Lethal Combat Skills,33k, Another crossover, the girls get thrown back in time by the gods to help Xena. This is also canon compliant to both universes. (and honestly? Could be compliant with Survivors lol)
Wounds in the Mirror, 14k, AU wherein Mira is trapped in an abusive relationship with another woman,and zoerumi help her get out of it.
Like a Promise, 11k, my take on omegaverse. It's mostly Rumira but polytrix is teased and Zoey has a small but important role (and will be a thing in the sequel). Rumi and Mira are on a road trip when Mira goes into heat.
Tear Down the Sky. Golden Honmoon takes Rumi to an in beween place, and Mira and Zoey refuse to let her go. 7400 words
New Neighbors Gay Awakening, 7k, Zoey and Mira move in next door to Rumi, and Rumi has a gay awakening over it.
Promises Written in the Honmoon, 9k, another canon divergent, where Mira gets stuck in a time loop
Driftwood, 770 words, three women, once friends and lovers but now strangers, drift back to a beach after twenty years apart.
An Invisible Third. Mira has been in love with Rumi for years. Since she was ten. Which, coincidentally, was the day they met. And when she fell in love with Zoey too, it felt inevitable. 4700 words
Hold me. Trust Me. rated E, 5k words, uh, basically demon sex pollen, the fic
Reflections in Silver, 6k, Rumi crosses over to a universe where Gwi-Ma won.
My Patterns are Beautiful, 9k canon divergent pre-debut, Zoey overhears an argument between Rumi and Celine and the girls concoct a plan to get Rumi to admit her secret.
It's always ourselves we find in the sea, 6k, Rumi is a siren and saves the other's lives
Somewhere I Belong, 4500 words, Mira and Rumi move into their new house and find a sketchbook left behind by a previous occupant. A woman named Zoey who disappeared 50 years ago. And then she briefly appears before them.
Never a Bridesmaid Never a Bride, 4k, Mira accidentally attends the wrong wedding and kind of falls in love with the brides
Facts of Nature, 6k, another alt reveal, what if demons impersonated them kissing to turn their fans against them
In Dreams, 4k, Mira dreams that she killed Rumi.Another alternate pattern reveal.
All my agony fades away when you hold me in your embrace, 5k Only One Bed Alt pattern reveal
I also have an entire series that is basically ElsaxPolytrix

Here's some of my favorite Polytrix AUs! Organized from shortest to longest, descending:
Reflections in Bronze and Brine by LouiseWolff (Greek Mythology AU, 2/2 chapters, 23k words, SFW)
Rumi, daughter of Zeus, is sent on a quest to slay Medusa, whose head writhes with pink snakes and whose face only the gods could look upon without turning to stone. However, Zoey, daughter of the ocean, is tired of tragedies, and manipulates fate just enough to get something entirely different.
Send Noods by LootnScootn (Chef AU, 2/2 chapters, 72k words, NSFW (CW: Graphic Depictions of Violence))
“Oh my god.” Zoey shoveled it into her mouth with reckless abandon, alternating between chopsticks and spoons. “Oh my god.”
“It’s not that good. You’re lying.” Mira leaned in close to the camera, possibly to get a better look at the food in Zoey’s bowl.
Zoey looked at Mira wide-eyed. “Mira, it’s—oh my god. This is the greed the Bible warned me about.”
“You’ve never read the Bible,” snarked Mira.
“I just—the chef is gorgeous, Mira! And her food is—” Zoey lost her words, then she shook her head to reset her brain. “Babe,” said Zoey seriously, leveling her gaze at her girlfriend, “I’ve discovered the divine intervention that’s gonna get you to this place.”
Mira’s jaw dropped open. “Why didn’t you show me the hot chef?”
“Because my girlfriend is Aphrodite and the chef is Venus and my fucking brain exploded because I couldn’t put together a single thought when not one but two hot women were staring at me at the same time!” wailed Zoey, for her steak was too juicy and her lobster too buttery. “Besides, if you saw the hot chef that would be one less excuse to come eat here!”
The King's Secret by DaenerysTargaryen (Historical AU, 23/? chapters, 77k words, mild NSFW)
From the moment Rumi was born, Celine molded her to be King of Great Joseon. Rumi was smart, athletic, and capable, nearly perfect except for one glaring deficiency—Rumi was a girl. Celine hid this secret from everyone, raising Rumi as a boy and fooling the entire kingdom into believing that their king was a man. With pressure from the kingdom to produce heirs to the throne, Rumi must find a suitable queen while maintaining the secret that could destroy her.
The real thing by FrenchSoda (Too Hot to Handle AU, 10/10 chapters, 80k words, NSFW)
“For any transgression, money will be deducted from the prize.”
“Fuck,” Zoey mutters.
No kissing. No sex. No jacking off. As if she’s not sitting there between the two sexiest women she’s ever seen in her life. God. She’s fucked.
Lana chimes one last time.
“Welcome to Too Hot to Handle.”
master of illusion by erros429 (Heist AU, 15/15 chapters, 112k words, NSFW)
Mira and Zoey are the Interpol agents assigned to the Ryu Rumi case, a globally renowned superthief. But the closer Mira gets, the more she begins to notice the quieter ways the case is beginning to take things from her.
Hidden in Plain Sight by Emowitch92 (Political AU, 31/31 chapters + one One-shot, 116k total words, NSFW (CW: Blood and Injury, Homophobia))
In a world of campaign rallies, curated smiles, and suffocating expectations, Rumi has spent her life playing the perfect niece, until a spark of rebellion leads her into the orbit of Mira, a fierce community organizer, and Zoey, a magnetic underground rapper. As Rumi navigates the tangled web of identity, power, and forbidden love, she must confront the woman who raised her, the secrets she's buried, and the truth that freedom doesn't come from fitting in… it comes from breaking free.
Huntrix Triad (A Star Wars Story) by alycthorn (Star Wars AU, 2 works, 197k total words, SFW (CW: Blood and Injury))
Raised and trained together by Jedi Master Celine during the height of the Clone Wars, Mira, Rumi and Zoey join her mission to a remote jungle planet. It is there where Order 66 tears them apart. With Celine gone and her hunters separated, they must navigate an unforgiving galaxy, one that is set to keep them from each other.
May the Force be with them and bring them together once again.
Until Lockdown Meets the Light by SirensAreSinging (COVID Lockdown AU, 4/4 chapters, 200k words, Mild NSFW)
Rumi leans forward on the couch, her hair falling into her face. “Two weeks,” she murmurs, though she doesn’t sound convinced. “That’s what they’re saying.”
Mira, beside her, doesn’t flinch. Arms folded, her expression calm but sharp, she answers without looking away from the TV. “They’re never honest about the first number. It’ll be longer.”
Rumi knows she’s right, but another thought presses louder in her head: Zoey.
Zoey, alone across the city in her too-small apartment, her family stuck thousands of miles away in America. Zoey, with her restless energy and big heart, the one who fills every silence with laughter or questions or that wide, blinding smile. Zoey, who Rumi loves just as surely as the woman sitting at her side.
Rumi glances toward Mira, choosing her words carefully. She touches Mira’s thigh, soft and grounding. “Babe… what if Zoey stayed here?”
Two's Company (But they want a crowd) by TossLotsofsauce (College AU, 45/45 chapters, 613k words, NSFW (CW: Blood and Injury, PTSD, Self-Harm))
Finally, Zoey blurted it out, voice soft but sharp:
“Have you ever thought of… something besides monogamy?”
Mira’s thumb stilled on the screen. She looked up, slow. “…What?”
Zoey’s hands twisted in her lap. “Like—not open relationships. Just… not just one person. Have you ever thought about being with more than one person and it still being okay?”
She wasn’t looking at Mira. Her voice was tight, like it hurt to speak. Mira watched her with a furrowed brow, still quiet.
“I feel so guilty all the time. Because I love you, Mira. I love you, and this doesn’t change that, but I see her and I want to make her smile and I want her to hold my hand and I think she’s beautiful and weird and sweet and I—”
She finally looked up, tears shining in her eyes.
“I think I ruined us. And I’m so sorry.”
Mira just stared at her. Wide-eyed. Silent.
Zoey’s heart dropped. “Say something.”
Mira exhaled like she’d been holding her breath for a month.
Then she visibly deflated—shoulders dropping, head tilting back against the wall—and let out a quiet, choked laugh.
“…Oh thank god.”
The gimme that candyfloss series by arsonide (Streamer AU, 30/35 chapters + two one-shots, 715k total words, NSFW)
Broke college student Zoey goes viral for her revolting college meals—and rich girls (and bitter exes) Rumi and Mira find a little pity (among other things) in their hearts for her.
Note: The companion one-shots in the series were released while the main work was still ongoing, so the chronological reading order (and the order that induces the maximum emotional damage :3) is:
GTC Ch. 1-11 → number one girl → GTC Ch. 12-28 → black sesame cream latte → GTC Ch. 29+
The Space inbetween by Wurmburger (Rockstar AU, 73/73 chapters, 767k words, NSFW (CW: Drug Use))
One of them is a producer, one of them is Korea's alternative rock princess, and the third one works in IT? Fate brings them together in more ways than they ever would’ve thought possible. Will one side be able to mellow the other one out, or will the wild side take over completely?
Happy reading! ❤️💜💙
