    Seonghwa always knew that his life was going to be hard. It was as plain for him to see as his own hands in front of him, but he wanted to try to live his life looking towards the sun.
    His uncle made that hard. Whenever the stress of life became too much for him, his uncle would berate Seonghwa over it, blaming it on his father for bringing his mother into their lives, on him being too much like his mother. It always came back to his mother.
    Because Seonghwa’s mother was a harpy.
    When he was 12, his uncle had a debt to a pirate captain from a job that went very poorly because of him.
    And Seonghwa was how he settled that debt. Seonghwa, to spare his uncle.
    _____

But when the crew of the Horizon comes along and gives him a chance at a different life, he must find a way to settle into a life leagues apart from the one he's always known, try to fit himself into the tightly-knit fabric of the crew, while hiding the truth of himself.

    Summary

    "You never do anything to enjoy yourself, so I’m going to continue to make fun of you until you realise that life isn’t entirely about straight edges and neat shelves.”
    “Life isn’t about dirty clothes on the floor or marijuana either.”

    The woman turns on her heel and exits the store as swiftly as she had entered, and Ten sends her back a cute little wave. “You have a nice day now, Ma’am!”
    “You’re fired,” Doyoung says, mortified for so many different reasons. “You’re so fired this time.”

    -
