    Summary

    This quiet—it doesn’t feel like a prelude. It feels like a held breath. It feels like staying up late to read the next chapter even though Jisung has to wake up early. It feels like jumping headfirst into it. It feels like being so invested you forget that time exists.

    The world narrows to here, now, this. You, me.

    “Minhee-unnie, will you kiss me?”

    OR: Jisung has a crush on her best friend's older sister. She takes matters into her own hands.

    Summary

    “There are two rooms, and the lodge is more than big enough for two adults. We’re both relatively sane, which is always a bonus. You couldn’t murder me, though it’d be fun to see you try, and I promise I’ll try not to murder you.” Minho blinked guilelessly, apparently at the end of his speech. “Stay.”

    -

    When Jisung arrives at his vacation house to find it double booked, his options are to return home, tail tucked between his legs, or learn to cohabit with the handsome, enigmatic stranger already occupying the lodge.

    Summary

    'P’Yo funneled any excess irritation into wiping down the bartop. When she shook her head, her earrings jangled. “You two are too cute to be fighting all the time.”

    “Don’t worry, P’Yo,” said Pat, cheerily. “Pran isn’t here to fight tonight.”

    Before Pran could react, Pat reached over to tug up his sleeve. His green wristband stood out where it overlapped his black watch strap. Pran snatched his hand away too late.

    “You’re wearing one, too,” he grumbled.'

    Summary

    “My Abuela said it,” Silvio insists. “She said you have to wear the hat, because you have a pale ass so you’re going to get skin cancer and die before Lance even wakes up.”

    Keith looks between the children and the hat, too confused to glare, sweaty and horrid from pulling weeds beneath the scorching sun. “What?”

    “That’s wrong,” Nadia complains, and yanks her brother down to her level to whisper the correction in his ear.

    “Ooh,” Silvio amends. “Tía Veronica said you have a pale ass. My Abuela said you’re gonna die.”

    OR

    When Lance is fatally wounded during their final battle, the blue lion enters a deep hibernation with Lance inside. Unsure when or if he’ll wake, Keith is forced to wait and watch over him in the company of the people he fears most: Lance’s family.

    Summary

    “You're new,” Jisung proclaims.

    Minho snorts. “Am I?”

    “Well, I've never seen you here before.”

    “Because you know all of their wedding guests?”

    Jisung has to laugh. “I know most of Hyunjin’s side,” he says.

    “Well obviously I’m a friend of Seungmin’s.”

    Jisung pauses to stare, eyes narrowing with curiosity. “Yeah,” he plays along. “But you’re new.”

    Minho chuckles. “You keep saying that. What does that mean?”

    “I mean that you’re new. Here. Today. New. I’ve experienced this wedding over thirty times now and—” his breath hitches because he really just said that out loud, but there’s an immediate flicker in Minho’s eyes that has him exhaling with relief.

    “Oh. Well.”
     

    alternatively: In which Jisung gets stuck repeating the day when his best friend gets married, only to meet a brand new friendly face a month into the grueling experience.
