Summary
The heir killed his father. The weapon put down the gun. They retired to a coastline and tried to be people.
It didn't last.
Now Hanbin is walking back into the empire he burned—and becoming the thing he killed to escape. Now Matthew is carrying a fury he can't afford to use and a body that remembers every terrible thing it was built to do. They are fighting ghosts. His father's. The program's. Each other's.
Face what you were made into. Decide if love conditioned into you counts.
But here is the thing about Sung Hanbin and Seok Matthew: the handler and his asset have never once failed when they moved together.
Echo Protocol 2: Restored is the sequel to Echo Protocol.
Series
- Part 2 of Echo Protocol Sungseok AU

Summary
Matthew has never met a fortune he couldn't tell, a coin he couldn't pocket, or a mark he couldn't charm. The Emperor of Joseon is, statistically, just another mark. The cards, which say what Matthew decides and which have never once surprised him, have finally made their case.
What comes next might ruin more than just his disbelief in the cards. -

Summary
☼ After disbandment, Matthew leaves Seoul and everything that was there. But something calls him back.
What if ZB1 really disbanded and Matthew became a girl dad? Ex-idol Matthew and solo idol Hanbin, monetized queerbaiting, the fear of the power Sungseok holds, and the K-pop industry are the main villains here. Heavy angst. They are both problematic.

Summary
-
“Best be careful. The others might accuse you of favouritism.”
“Should I deny a truth to them then?”
Altaïr chuckles breathlessly till it fades out into a relieved sigh. From the incline of his head Malik sees nothing but a flash of teeth, owing the hood.
Sometimes they know exactly how to treat each other, and other times they were too afraid of regressing back to hatred that they played overly and awkwardly careful. More often than not, in moments of anger they would still grate each other's nerves till they were both sore. Their dialogue is not restricted by the audience of the celebration further away, but Malik thinks they are still to learn the intricacies of casual conversation.
[Altaïr and Malik navigate a new Brotherhood, each with their old haunters.]

Bookmarker's Notes
One of the best, if not THE best. Dissect it and learn from it.
- character and relationship development
- beautiful attention to detail
- anger, grief, possessiveness, devotion, religion, ....
- The AltMal dynamic I love the most and try (and fail) to capture, honestly, I am in awe -
