Summary
They’d never exchanged words beyond sorry, my son likes to talk and it’s okay, I do too, but then Hot Single Dad had given him a smile – all big teeth and crinkled eyes – and that was enough for him to become a regular cast member in Jake’s fantasies.
It wasn’t purely carnal desire, though. Jake genuinely felt an urge to get to know him – both of them, truthfully. Riki seems like a sweet kid, and his father seems nice, and he’d met so few people since he moved back to the city. Jake often finds himself wondering if he should call his grandmother for her banana bread recipe and knock on their door with a fresh batch in hand and see if they were interested in getting to know him, too.
He’s pretty sure there’s black mold in his walls – that’s what he tells himself to excuse the level of delusion he’s reached. He’s having black mold poisoning induced psychosis, but it’s fine, everything is fine.
Or, where Jake gets a glimpse of the kind of family he'd always wished for, and wonders if maybe, just maybe, they'd been wishing for him, too.

Summary
It all starts because of what Minho thinks is a misplaced hoodie stuffed into a book rack at the back of the archives. And the thing is, he recognizes the hoodie- it belonged to one of his classmates from his free elective course. He remembers it because his classmate, Bang Chan, wore the hoodie even when they were in the middle of a heat wave.
So Minho, being the decent person that he was, decides he might as well return it to the man.
But apparently decency was a one-step method to getting married because-
'Oh no,' one of his friends whispers.
'What?!' Minho demands, staring at both Bang Chan and then at his dramatic friend.
'This is- oh man, oh no!' the man wails, more distressed than Bang Chan.
'Tell me what's wrong!'
'Dude, Chan is a Selkie!'
Minho stares at the man, blinking once, twice, and then-
'-okay and-?'
'-that's his seal-skin!'
Minho might not be full-Magick and he might not be fully aware of Selkies and their specific Magick or culture but he definitely knew one thing.
'Oh my god,' Minho whispers, staring at Bang Chan, the Selkie and then at the hoodie in his hands.

Summary
Euijoo peels the wax off with his thumb nail, flicking the envelope open and tossing it onto the kitchen table with the rest of his junk mail. The contents are just as fancy as the envelope itself. Thick cardstock and handwritten calligraphy with sharp ink. Taunting him.
The honor of your company is requested at the marriage of Koga Yudai and Murata Fuma.
(OR: Euijoo asks his childhood crush to pretend to be his new boyfriend at his ex-boyfriend’s wedding. Nicholas says yes.)
