    Summary

    "'Flins'?" Flins asked, his tone mildly surprised but courteous. "I am seldom called as such. Why, my good sir, do I perhaps know you? If I do, please forgive me for I cannot remember."

    "Hang on a second." Illuga grabbed the edge of Flins' coat. "If Flins is not the name you're used to, what do they call you?"

    "Ah. My apologies." Flins took his hat and bowed, his grace and elegance untouched by the howling snow. He took Illuga's fingers and pressed them to his lips—much like the first time they met. "Allow me to introduce myself, my good sir. Around these parts, I am called Kyryll, the Azure Flame."

    Summary

    Anaxa is a minor NPC villain, his death destined to be an inconsequential footnote of the true protagonist's story. However, one day Anaxa suddenly gains memories of the past incarnations he's lived through, and realizes this world is stuck in a looping cycle. The hero, Phainon, has actually perished countless times in his quest to save the world, and now only Anaxa has the insight to prevent him from failing once again. Unfortunately, the rest of the world still sees Anaxa as a strange, evil sorcerer. Will he be able to convince others of his good intentions while also avoiding the numerous death flags lining the path to a happy ending?

    Summary

    “It seems you may know more than you say you do,” said Yu Hansung. “I suppose I’m glad that Hwaryun chose someone shrewd to be by Viole’s side. Let me offer you a poem that may help you find some answers to your questions. Consider it both friendly advice and a warning:

    “The rain that falls from a downpour
    Collects in the stone jar unseen.
    The first of the droplets to overflow
    Look up at the vaulted night and wonder—
    Would it even be possible to count
    The number of stars in the sky?”

    Aguero gritted his teeth. “You have some gall to assume I won’t turn you into the ten families. They’ll roast you alive.”

    “I do not fear death. I only fear living without knowing what I want to live for.” Yu Hansung took a long sip of his tea. “In other words, I’m only afraid of turning into someone like you.”

    A one-shot fantasy sageuk AU loosely set in Joseon Korea, in which Khun is our protagonist, Bam is our hero, and fate is our antagonist.

    Recommended that you've caught up to the Hidden Floor on the Hell Train arc if you want to catch all the parallels in the story.

    Summary

    Without fail, Ratio finds him after every project, at every bar and casino. He drags Aventurine back to his hotel or penthouse, plying him with water and food until Aventurine is almost eating three meals a day.

    Each night, Aventurine is lulled to sleep by Ratio’s irritated scolding, and every morning, he wakes to a tall glass of water and hangover pills on his nightstand, with breakfast pre-made and waiting in the fridge.

    One night, after Ratio leaves, Aventurine coughs. It must be allergies.

    Or:

    Aventurine has Hanahaki.
