    Summary

    Euijoo’s poor heart is still beating too fast and loud and skipping too many beats to count as Euijoo stands there, stupidly frozen. He forces his eyes off of Nicholas for a few seconds to search for Maki in the crush of bodies, though a much larger piece of him stays there, on that stage; it always will, tethered in more ways than fate itself can count. Red string, soulmates, star-crossed lovers, whatever you want to call it, all of it ties him inextricably to Nicholas in ways he isn’t ready to admit on a random October night in the middle of a club. He’s not feeling it anymore; the atmosphere that had once afforded him the chance to forget and numb himself now pressed into him, making him panic as his eyes finally found Maki near the front of the stage. He wasn’t looking at the stage, too wrapped up in the bunny-like boy centimeters away from him to be paying attention. Euijoo hated to ruin his fun, but he had to leave. He had to leave now.

    Summary

    Nicholas’ body moves before his mind does. He shoves through the line of boys, ignoring the angry mutters, the hands that try to hold him back. His chest feels tight, each breath scraping his throat raw.

    He can’t lose her. Not like this.

    They’re twins—two halves of one whole, born thirteen minutes apart—she's older but he's always promised her to keep her safe from scraped knees to sleepless nights, he’s always been the one to shield her, to take the blame, to make her laugh when she cries.

    And now, as he watches her step forward, trembling under the Peacekeepers’ hands, he knows he can’t keep his promise. Not unless he does something reckless.

    Summary

    Weed, clubs, sex. Things didn't go as planned for Eujioo.

    And it was all due to that red-haired boy that talked to him on his first day of class.

    Nicholas.

    Summary

    The scent of citrus cleaner couldn't cover the smell of smoke. The expensive sweaters couldn't hide the bruising longing. Euijoo had spent three years trying to turn himself into a man who didn't need the ring, but one night at the academy proved that some rhythms are impossible to forget.

    What starts as a sparring session to test their reflexes ends as a desperate reclamation. Nicholas is done mopping up the mess of their past—he’s ready to make a new one, right on top of the desk where Euijoo tried to sign him away.

    Summary

    Piercing the low clinking of cutlery came the harsh sound of a transistor radio, resting on the windowsill. The newsreader’s voice flowed neutral and impersonal, in keeping with the subdued tone of provincial news broadcasts:

    «...updates on the assault that took place last night outside the club in the city center. Two young men have been hospitalized in critical condition after being brutally beaten by a group of men. Witnesses report insults related to the victims' sexual orientation. Police are investigating for aggravated assault...»

    […] Nicholas didn’t lift his eyelids, yet Euijoo caught the tightening of his jaw, so tense it caused a muscle near his earlobe to vibrate. Mr. Wang set down his chopsticks with a sharp, irrevocable gesture. There was no turmoil in his voice, but a visceral contempt, more incisive than an invective.

    «Do you see what happens to these people, Nicholas?»

    Or

    Nicholas and Euijoo fall in love, but their fear prevents them from living the way they both want. That’s wrong, but they can’t stop.

    Summary

    Euijoo’s face turns red, as he’s extremely flustered. “You just have to pretend to be my boyfriend for a day, only at the wedding”

    “It’s alright, we can do that. Don’t stress too much” Nicholas says, assuring him.

    “But yall need to have believable chemistry for the wedding event” Maki says, stepping in. “Otherwise juju hyung, your mom might think you’re lying”

    Euijoo sighs. “We can pretend to act like a couple that day”

    “Juju hyung, you flinch when Nico puts a hand on you” Maki deadpans.

    Summary

    "He said he isn't letting y'all date because he thinks I am a player which automatically makes you one too-"

    "Hold on" Maki sits up, staring at Nicholas. "So you're telling me YOU are the reason why I can't get Harua?"

    "Dude! I literally did nothing! I don't hook up with people every day! That guy is just accusing me of shit"

    "Bro!" Maki facepalms. "Because of your ruined image I can't date Harua! This is unbelievable!"

    (Nicholas's younger brother Maki falls for his classmate Harua, but Harua's older brother Euijoo does not allow them to date. Maki seeks his brother Nicholas's help to convince Harua's brother to let him date him but things don’t go as planned)

    Summary

    Euijoo looks around. No one else is in the store to confirm what feels like a hallucination, and he’s panicking a little. He wonders why Taki is taking so long to get their lunch because he won’t believe him once he comes back and Nicholas is gone, leaving him to tell a tale that sounds too good to be true. “He’s nominated for like, six Grammys, this year,” Taki noted once, when they were organizing the stacks. “Isn’t that crazy?” As Euijoo watches as Nicholas sifts through the offerings, in the little record shop he owns tucked in the corner of the city, he can think of something a little crazier.

    When critically-acclaimed rockstar Nicholas comes into Euijoo’s record store, they have a chance encounter that Euijoo doesn’t think will happen again. But when they meet again and their chance encounter begins blossoming into more, Nicholas and Euijoo navigate what it means to fall in love amidst their drastically different lives.

    Summary

    There are eleven items in total on Sungho’s list. The actual contents are a bit absurd.

    Go on a Blind Date. Go Skinny Dipping. Learn to Drive. Kiss a Stranger. (Yes, an actual stranger!!!) 

    “I’m not doing this stuff, Sungho,” Euijoo says. “Where would I even find someone to go on a blind date with?” 

    (OR: Euijoo doesn't know who he is without his best friend. Nicholas helps him figure it out.)

    Summary

    Euijoo reached out, absentmindedly rolling up the ends of Nico’s sleeves.
    “You always do this,” he murmured.
    “Do what?” Nico asked.
    “Forget you’re allowed to take up space.”
    Nico stayed still, frozen even, heart pounding in his ears- looking directly into Euijoo’s eyes and an unfamiliar thought crossed his mind. One that he was scared to address aloud but he could feel it all too real, too deep and before he knew, he was already drowning.

    or: Between tutoring sessions, lingering touches, comforting hugs and quiet tears something much deeper than either of them expected begins to bloom.

    Summary

    Everyone is flesh and blood. It's what they do with that flesh and blood that makes a difference. Some don themselves in cotton and silk and waste away in a cubile. Some learn to taste a rhythm and make it theirs. Others find a specific way to destroy themselves, to rip up the flesh and display the blood as a trophy.
    Sometimes it isn't always a choice. Sometimes it's all you can do to survive.

    (Or, Nicholas is a fighter and Euijoo is his most loyal supporter.)

    Summary

    Nicholas used to say he never wanted pups. And he meant it. Because how could someone like him, raised by sorrow and abandonment, ever be a parent? What if he left behind a grieving mate and a child who would never know him?

    This fear has always been with him tucked behind his ribs, heavy in his chest. But fear has never meant weakness. It means he understands what love could cost. Still, he moves forward. He breathes through the ache and chooses to try anyway. Because things are different now.

    He has Euijoo - his mate, his home - and has a pack who loves him, and who would love any pup that came into their lives.

    Summary

    Nicholas stared for a moment, then leaned forward, a grin spreading across his face. “Then we make a deal.”

    Euijoo blinked. “A deal?”

    “I teach you how to fight. You patch me up. Fair trade.”

    “That doesn’t sound fair at all,” Euijoo said, frowning. “You’ll get less out of it.”

    Nicholas chuckled. “You’d be surprised how often I get hurt.”

    Nicholas has survived gangs, implants, and the kind of streets that chew people up. Now he fights underground matches and tries not to think about the device in his neck that malfunctions more each week.

    Euijoo runs a quiet clinic -- too skilled for someone who claims he’s self-taught, too calm for someone living in the slums. Nicholas can’t read him, can’t ignore him, can’t stop returning to him.

    What begins as patching wounds becomes something far more intimate -- a pull neither of them asked for, crafted from blood, lies, and the kind of longing that grows in dark places.

    But Euijoo’s past isn’t as harmless as he pretends.

    And Nicholas’s implant is a ticking fuse.

    Summary

    ​​“I’m saying we should be each other’s ‘date,’” Nicholas explained. “We’ll hit up all these perfect date spots, but just as best friends helping each other out. No pressure, no TV show script. Just us.”

    ​Euijoo stared at him like Nicholas had just announced he was an alien, but Nicholas didn’t flinch, waiting for it to sink in.

    ​“Are you suggesting that we... go on dates?”

    ​“Friend dates,” he corrected with a confident wink. “It’s no big deal, we hang out all the time anyway. We’re just changing the context a bit.”

    ​(or: the one where Nicholas suggests he and his best friend go on fake dates.)

    Summary

    The Countdown gives the world one week — 168 hours.

    Generally human reaction is predictable. Panic and hoarding and reclusion. Denial and cable-watching and shrugging over potluck dinners, though next week’s plans are suddenly a little tentative. Pilgrimage to holy places and proselytizing on big stages and a good number drink bleach. People sell their homes, quit their jobs, kill their bosses, spend lifesavings on life-long dreams or feed it into a machine, and the economy braces at the tickle of a devastating sneeze. As the days drip away, Christmas lights go up, the rich leave in spaceships, neighbours sing hymns in the street, cities burn, a dog curls up and falls asleep.

    Before all this — six days before the clock hits zero — Byun Euijoo steals his mother’s car, leaves in the night with just his phone and a grade 12 essay that he never submitted, and Wang Nicholas sets out hitchhiking.

    Summary

    “Would you like to sign up for the rewards program?” Euijoo asks.

    The guy drums his pink nails against the counter like he’s bored. “Hm, no thanks." He then stops tapping them, staring at Euijoo. “Wait. Do you get like… rewarded as an employee for that? The more sign-ups you have?” 

    Euijoo tilts his head, confused. “Yeah, but—“

    “Okay, I can sign up,” he cuts Euijoo off. “Do you need my email? Phone number?”

    Euijoo swallows. “Um, both would work.”

    “Okay, cool. Email is weno0709@gm—“

    Euijoo is the cute bookstore employee to blame for Nicholas's recent expensive habit of buying books. Luckily, his job at Thread Theory in the same shopping mall pays enough to fund his stupid decisions.
