Summary
Wooyoung remembers.Time is not what it seems. Yeah. It's weird. No beginning or and end. Maybe no one actually dies because of this. Time never ends after all how the fuck am I supposed to know?
Mum always said that he is always the odd one out in the family. Wooyoung knows why. He also doesn't. He just remembers.
Remembers. Remembering. Remembered.... Maybe that's why he meets Sannie. Maybe that's why they are together now. Maybe that's why of them are here, gathered around this warehouse, spending their first and last happiest times. It is only a matter of when that happens.
But Wooyoung knows, he will, on days of the spring rain flowing into streams, seeping into the rock and down to the cliff in the valley, where the soft touches linger and the heat rushes through his body—always, no matter how long it has been, waiting for him.
OR
Inspired by the "Traitor Wooyoung" theory, but Wooyoung is not actually a traitor.

Summary
They’re mobbed at the airport.
What’s worse is they’re mobbed after landing in Gimpo, desperate for lower-body baths and their own pillows. This is not a welcome home, Chan thinks bitterly. This is not love.
Indignation builds in his chest. Navigating airports would be so much easier if he could just move his kids around like plushies in a claw machine. Or wolf pups in a den. If he could scruff them by the backs of their hoodies, he would. If he could slink away to hide them somewhere secluded and safe, he would. No one would get in their way if he snarled and raised his hackles to say these are mine, leave them alone.
And—pain explodes in his mouth. Every movement of his tongue feels like firecrackers against his teeth. There’s too much pressure in his sinuses, in his eye sockets. His jaw creaks. His canines pulse. What is happening?
—Or, the shame-hunger-restlessness of idol life catches up to Chan all at once, and the wolf howls itself awake.

Summary
Minho is tired. He’s so, so tired, and he’s felt unsafe in his own life since the day he discovered Seojoon and his lover in his bed. At work, in Minho’s flat, at his favourite park with the hideous fountain, he’s always listening for footsteps behind him, braced for impact and seeing danger everywhere with his nerves feeling peeled raw. He’s spiralling downward, he knows he is, and he’s not even sure what’s real anymore.
Making a deal with a demon isn’t the worst-case scenario right now.

Summary
“The last thing I need to worry about right now is you falling in love with me.”
“Ha!” Jisung says. He kicks a pebble, and it ricochets to land in Minha’s path. “Nah, don’t worry about that.”
“But I’m so lovable,” Minha says, kicking the pebble back and tilting her head—ugh—coquettishly. The only person she fake-flirts with is Jisung; where someone else might get confused by it, he knows better than to take her at face value. He knows how high her standards are. Also, she doesn’t real-flirt with anyone, what the fuck. “You sure?”
And here’s where Jisung ruins everything.

Summary
The first thing that Changbin says is, “Fuck, I knew I got the wrong window.”
The second thing that Changbin says is, “You can’t tell anyone, okay?”
Changbin looks like he’s about to say a third thing, but then his eyes roll back in his head and he collapses on the floor of Seungmin’s bedroom. His little purple skirt flips up as his body hits the ground. Frilly panties strain against the muscled swell of his ass.
Seungmin blinks, stunned, and it’s only then that he realizes that Changbin is absolutely covered in blood.
Or; Changbin is a magical girl and it sucks. Seungmin is in love with him and decides that it should really suck way less.

Summary
Over the dead man’s shoulder, the tip of the sword drips blood onto Minho’s face. Dark crimson stains his bright, moonlit skin. Disgust and guilt run through Chan. He withdraws his sword and tosses the body aside, his mind only on one thing now.
Dropping to his knees, he reaches inside his robes and pulls out his handkerchief. Minho stares at him; though he is neither pale nor shaking, there is no mistaking the animalistic near-panic in his eyes, gleaming with ferality. Chan offers the handkerchief up like a devotee offers a sacrifice at a temple.
“Your face,” he whispers, voice hoarse.
Minho’s eyelashes tremble as he blinks, and then, he is human again.
Bound by honor, Chan marries his brother’s widower after his mysterious death. Though Minho is everything Chan could have ever dreamed of, not all is as it seems.

Summary
“Do I know you?” the stranger asks, squinting into Jisung’s face. Then he splits into something of a maniacal smile. Snaps his fingers, pokes one into Jisung’s sternum. “You. You’re Jiwon, from 1-Up.”
“Oh my god,” Jisung squeaks when he finds his voice. And around a bewildered laugh, “J.ONE, not Jiwon.”
“What’d you say?”
“J—never mind.”

Summary
The recording shifts– whoever’s behind the camera got distracted, and seventeen-year-old Seungmin notices. His smile twitches, nervously. He’s dressed in all black, making him look more stringy than he already does, and he adjusts his glasses. Seungmin remembers this day– a national full orchestra, fancy recording equipment, an audience of professionals and symphony-goers and family members. In the recording, Seungmin bounces his trombone with his foot, waiting for the cue to continue speaking, his eyes bright.
Twenty-one year old Seungmin puts his phone down, cutting the video off short. He stays there on the floor for a while longer, legs tucked under himself, as he leans against his mattress and lets memory take hold of him– brass-tinged lips, aching lungs. The sting, cutting both ways, of having purpose.
Or: Kim Seungmin is a junior in college, surrounded by art and music and life, struggling to get over what he chose to leave behind. Enter, Lee Minho.

He wants to live. The world is dead, it’s already ended, a civilisation snuffed out in the same way it came to be—by blood and violence. But Felix is alive. Neither happy nor grateful.
Here, nonetheless.

“I’m sorry about this,” the man said. He took a sip of his coffee before continuing, “It’s the lesser of two evils. A mother and her young children, or a single kid. It has to be you.”

Summary
“Are you going to throw a fit again?” Minho asks warily, voice barely above a murmur.
Jisung gives him a wide-eyed look of innocence, and Minho responds with an equally fake sigh. He knows he’ll have an obsessively needy, whiny Jisung on his hands, as if Minho should feel guilty for letting his own boyfriend touch him. Minho will mock Jisung for it and pretend to be annoyed, because these are the rules of this little game of theirs.
It’s not as fun if one of them is so in love he’s choking on it, sweating it out of his pores and wrestling back the words with every breath, and the other just likes to get his dick wet where he shouldn’t.
