    Summary

    The immediate firing of his neural network lights Cortana's awareness alive. Dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine bombard her — the chemical reaction is enough to make her code swim. His vitals hitch and the AI tries to gain her metaphorical footing. Then: your voice.

    "Good afternoon, Master Chief. Step up when you're ready."

    A flood of liquid, golden Oxytocin makes Cortana's not-there-mouth run dry.

    John offers a cordial nod to you. His face is set into a hard mask. "Thank you, Petty Officer."

    ...Oh.

    ...Admire from afar, indeed.

    Yet your eyes return, time and again, to the archivist, who wishes to devour the secrets of the stars.

    Little wonder, then, that Dan Heng enthralls you so.

    Like calls to like, in this celestial void.

    Summary

    Sooyoung looked at Dokja with a smirk. “Well, if you really want to win… You could break his heart right before Champions this year. That would guarantee us success,” she paused. “Like peeker's advantage. Attack your enemy in the split second before he knows you’re even there.”

    “What do you propose?” Joonghyuk asked.
    A wicked smile stretched across Namwoon’s face. “Make him like you. String him along. Break his heart right before Champions this year. Like peeker’s advantage—before he even realizes it’s a problem.”

    I cant help but think that yjh and kdj couldve disqualified themselves literally any other way.... cheating can be really devastating for a player's career, even if they retire and become a streamer, bc it not only affects their reputation amongst players but calls into question all of their past victories. Ppl are forever gonna doubt their skill and they can lose a ton of fans. But ya know what it's a fanfic, it had a happy ending, and these guys are idiots for each other it all checks out. Maybe they explain to their fans later or do something really blatantly obvious or something.

    Summary

    “Are you happy now, Sooyoung?” Kim Dokja asked, folding his arms over his chest while his brow furrowed. Joonghyuk clenched his jaw to prevent it from dropping at the sight in front of him. Dokja was wearing a strapless black bodysuit, white tights, and bunny ears. He shifted uncomfortably while Sooyoung cackled and pulled out her phone to snap pictures.

    “Yes, I’m very happy. You look wonderful,” Sooyoung said between her laughter.

    “Sunbae? ” Joonghyuk couldn’t stop his mouth from voicing his surprise.

    Or: Kim Dokja shows up to the fall semester club fair in a slutty bunny costume. Yoo Joonghyuk cannot handle it.

    Rare footage of yjh being the silly oblivious angsty pining dork while kdj flirts unsubtly and heavily with him, hoping he'll get the hint that he's very much interested

    Summary

    “How’s kissing?” Joonghyuk asked, removing his tie and unbuttoning his shirt. It slid off his shoulders and glided down to the floor. Dokja bit his lip at the sight of his body. Unlike many of the men that called on him, Joonghyuk was tanned and sinewy, with a lean frame and chiseled abdomen. It complimented his attractive face and hair that looked so soft, Dokja wanted to touch it. But more than that, it made him hate Joonghyuk more.
    “Allowed,” he said, swallowing the saliva that had gathered in his mouth. No wonder he’s married.

    In the heat of early summer, Kim Dokja saw Yoo Joonghyuk for the very first time. That initial meeting was pure chance—an intersection of their separate fates as an escort and a company president; every call after would be far from it.
