Summary
“Do you ever wonder what it would be like, if we didn’t meet like this?” Mark asks, eyes on the yellow tinged night sky. It’s almost entirely starless; all but three half-hearted specks of light have been painted over by the city glow.
“What do you mean?” Donghyuck asks, even though he knows perfectly well what Mark means.
“Like, I dunno, if we met at university or something,” Mark says, “like normal people.”
Donghyuck’s instinctual response, which rises shamefully and acidly up his throat, is yes, yes, I wonder it all the time, I wonder if, given the chance, you’d love someone else better.
“Sometimes,” is what he says instead.

Summary
Jisung has known Chenle for more than a decade and he's only seen Chenle cry about three times before they had Lian. Lian has made both of them a lot more emotional, though, because in the year spanning from this moment to Jisung sitting in their living room right now, Chenle's cry count shot up from three to almost seven. Parenthood really does change you.

Summary
After receiving a totally not romantically-charged gift from Mark, Donghyuck decides to finally get answers about what they really are to each other by any means necessary, starting with doing what he does best: psychologically manipulating Mark until he figures out exactly what he wants to know.
(Donghyuck might just be crazy. That would be the worst possible outcome, definitely.)

Summary
“And you see, this is exactly why this plan is genius,” Chenle tells him fervently, “Two best friends— childhood best friends nonetheless— that realized they’ve been secretly pining after each other all this time can’t keep their feelings in anymore so they confess to each other and start dating. It’s foolproof!”
Yeah, Jisung thinks bitterly, Except for the fact that I’ve been secretly pining after you for years.

Summary
"Shit. How do I turn this thing off?"
"Is the thing you're referring to the baby?"
"I think I'm gonna have a nervous breakdown."
Not much in life can be worse than breaking up with the person you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with—except for breaking up with that person and then having to take care of a baby with them for five days straight.

Summary
“So?” Chenle stares at him pointedly. His eyes sparkle from the city lights, and Jisung wonders how many stars he could count in them had they been standing outside under the midnight sky instead. “Tell me anyway.”
“Go to an observatory,” Jisung mumbles, “Visit a place where the aurora borealis can be visibly seen. Travel to space.”
In all fairness, there’s things he wants to discover on the planet too, but it’s things he doesn’t know how to say aloud despite how much time he’s spent mulling over the ideals.
(Or, Jisung’s bucket list.)

Summary
Ten years since he left Jeju, and Seungkwan still feels like the ocean.
"You've never dated anyone else?"
Snip snip.
"I did," Seungkwan doesn't look up, and Hansol stares at him. "Once. We went out for, let's see...three years?"
"Ah."
His neck is warm. There's a belated, volatile feeling of shame at the pit of his stomach, and Hansol tries to reconcile the knowledge in his head. Suddenly, the ring imprint makes sense.
Seungkwan gives Hansol a haircut.

Perhaps it's an invisible force, or just the capricious hands of fate, but maybe there will always be something stopping them from being together.
(Or: in which Jeno and Jaemin are rivals at Quidditch and hate each other for some reason no one knows, but they have to work together in order to pass their final exams. In the meantime, they discover a new kind of magic called love)

Summary
In his brain, it goes like this: everything Mark just said + them holding hands right now + Mark looking like he wants to jump off a plane + the out of place offense at Donghyuck not taking his offer seriously + him sitting here, with Donghyuck, not even watching the movie that was probably very loudly distracting him from completing his time-sensitive essay = the second epiphany.
Donghyuck's eyes widen. “Oh my god. You’re totally in love with me.”

Summary
"Surprisingly, and against all the laws that rule over the universal—or so he once thought—experience that is maturing and growing up, it turns out Seungechol’s brain forgot to get rid of the cheesiest, fluffiest, most embarrassing and flustering part of his teen years: which is, undoubtedly, his six years long crush on Yoon Jeonghan."
Or: a sort of fated kind of reunion, told through the view of a very pining Seungcheol.

Summary
“I wrote you a letter once, you know,” he recalls softly, scooping up some bubbles to trail them along Mark’s forearm. Lined up, they look like a soapy mountain range with soft peaks, easily eroded with even the slightest hint of air.
