Summary
Perhaps she still hasn’t learned how to conceal her emotions, after all this time. Or maybe that was just Bori’s innate attribute. To have one person in the world who knows you by heart is both a blessing and a curse.

Summary
“Wha-” Taehyun gets cut off as the totebag chirps. They all turn and look at it and then back at Yeonjun who winces.
“So I ,uhm, accidentally, may have found something?” They clutch the bag closer to them.
“You didn’t mention that the something was alive,” Beomgyu says. “We are going to get kicked out of another cafe!”
“No, it’s fine I put a little vest on him!”
“Him?” Beomgyu looks like he’s going to start throwing things. Soobin feels like he’s been kept out of the loop on something important.- Language:

Summary
Their bond is the first of its kind in the industry.
There are others, centered around emotions or sensations or perceptions, even web-like bonds where each person involved is connected to every other, but no group or entity had ever agreed to try a bond that anchors on pain.
Some days, Chan wishes that were still true.

Bookmarker's Notes
They discuss the bond in interviews sometimes, but it’s generally played for a laugh.
Minho tends to get a lot of screen time during those segments, talking about what it’s like to carry a burden for their leader, how Chan overworks himself sometimes and Minho has to bust into his studio with food and water to ease the low pulse of a tension headache that tends to gather around his own temples. He points out the area when he’s asked. He laughs and smacks Chan on the ass without flinching, and the hosts ooh and aah appropriately at Minho’s manly pain tolerance. The bits happen less often now than they did around debut and the associated installation of the bond, but they’re still not uncommon, and each time it comes up the hosts or interviewers make sure to mention how lucky Chan is to have a member a link below him who is capable of taking on so much.
The thing they don’t talk about is that Minho volunteered.

Summary
Changbin’s got rules for this—this bond between them. Some of the rules are about work. Some of the rules are about himself.
A lot of the rules—the majority, if he’s honest with himself—are about Jisung.

Summary
“Even when you love someone enough to want to keep them forever and they feel the same, at some point you can’t help but hate what makes you.” Wooyoung smiles at him, rueful. “It’s easy for me to say that now that you’re already changing, of course. I told you I’m greedy.”
“I wouldn’t hate you,” San says lowly. Do you need me to tell you I love you? I love you.
“That’s good of you to say.” Wooyoung thumbs at his mouth, holds San’s face in his hands. “Isn't it enough that I have your blood, and you have mine?”

Bookmarker's Notes
Wooyoung lets out a dry laugh. His fingers are tracing nonsense patterns into San’s back. “Was that not morose enough for you?”
San shakes his head stubbornly.
“After that… it turns out that the longer you live, the easier it is to make a story out of anything. To mythologize, to play with the truth; this is how I remember it, you can say, and elide all guilt. Only someone who loves you very much would be able to argue with you about it.”
