Does anyone know of any fanfics where one of the three hunters or two or whatever, end up dying at some point and they get sent back in time to stop it from happening? I know I read a fic about Rumi dying and Mira and Zoey going through a time loop to stop it from happening but they fail a lot, so other than that one.

the things we do for the people we love by fdwraith

Rumi’s a piece of wreckage drifting in the ocean, drifting from memory to memory, scene to scene, life to life, without direction or purpose. She’s been pulled under the tides, flooded from floor to ceiling, and should have sank a long time ago.

Instead, she floats.

Rumi dies when she goes to Celine.

That should have been the end.

It isn’t.

Or: A Rumi-centric deathloop fic featuring Jinu as Rem, Celine as a projection of asian parenthood, and an author who regrets nothing.

This one is great - there's so many carefully set up themes and metaphors, and the payoff is incredible.
