    Summary

    Han Juwon aches for a plummeting swoop in his stomach. Juwon has half-dreamed of it all his life, but nothing ever lives up to the jolt of a plane shuddering into the air, the brief moment of weightlessness as he is thrust into the unknown atmosphere above. He has flown twice, and both times were dulled by their circumstances: dead mothers, dreary London skies, crimson rushing and flooding into bathwater, and the image of his father’s broad back, etched with disapproval. If something can mimic that halting, aching excitement, Juwon realizes, it is the idea that Dongsik is coming back. Juwon doesn’t quite know how he will handle this landing. He doesn’t think the touchdown of the wheels will stand the plummet. (He determines to hang on anyways, as they crash and burn to the ground, plumes of pulpy flames and smoke curling above.

    Or: a walk through four seasons, following Han Juwon for a year after he moves to Manyang and deals with the return of Lee Dongsik after his year of rest and relaxation (read: incarceration) away. A story about families found, villagers lost, the changing spokes of time, the inevitability of Lee Dongsik, and Han Juwon’s desperate rush toward the only pull he cannot avoid.

    Summary

    “But you know my name.”

    “Well, now, that sounds like a you problem, don’t it?”

    “But what am I supposed to call you? Just—” she waves her hands spastically in front of her, gun included— “‘Hey, you?’”

    “You can call me whatever you damn well like.”

    Or: A girl, a dog, and a ghoul set off across the Mojave.

    Summary

    Eve was never one to wallow in suffering. Wade sometimes, sure, but never wallow. She moves on, reminding herself that the world (and her life) always continues. So when she meets a familiar face one trip into the Fade, she recognizes someone trying to do the same. Abelas accepts her invitation to Skyhold, searching for meaning and connection – and finding it in unexpected places.

    Written for the 2015 DABB challenge.

    Summary

    But then again, the thing about you is that homes never lasted. That was something you’d learned a long, long time ago. In the end, it would be a futile effort to try and keep this one. It was like trying to hold onto sand and watching as the granules slowly slipped from your fingers. If you didn’t lose it now, you’d lose it later.

    Better now than later. Better on your own terms than on someone else’s.

    ~~

    You’re ordered to go into hiding with your least favorite comrade. Somehow, you learn what it means to call someplace—or someone—home along the way.
