    Summary

    If this, this violence, this foolishness, these broken promises, this endless cycle of death and sacrifice and death and sacrifice and death and sacrifice—if this is the only thing that has ever looked to Kim Dokja like love, then Yoo Joonghyuk doesn’t want to know what he thinks of as hatred.

    He doesn’t want to know how far he’d have to go, to make Kim Dokja hate him.

    /

    (Or: Yoo Joonghyuk tries to make Kim Dokja hate him. It seems to be an impossible task.)

    Summary

    Will ■■ understand it better if I put it like this – in the form of a story?

    It is early morning when they go shopping, but Joonghyuk looks about as beautiful as he usually does; that is to say, if he is sleep deprived, then even fatigue must think that tarnishing Yoo Joonghyuk’s face is something unforgivable.

    Dokja waits until they are close to the store’s selection of coffee so that he has a convenient excuse if his questioning goes somewhere unexpected. Then he asks, “Aren’t you tired?”

    Dokja says it as if he’s asking about how early it is, although he knows Joonghyuk will read into it. There have been many times that Yoo Joonghyuk has refused to answer when Kim Dokja questions him, but never before has Dokja ever heard Joonghyuk lie to him. Dokja can sense in that strangled moment of silence that Joonghyuk takes to consider his answer that this fact is about to be conscribed to the past.

    Finally, Joonghyuk sighs in a way that suggests he finds this conversation trite. “I’m not tired,” he says.

    Right in front of his eyes, Yoo Joonghyuk has become a person who lies. Dokja replies, “Oh, okay.” It’s not okay, of course, but what else can he say?

    Summary

    [I don’t understand your obsession with Kim Namwoon.]

    Yoo Jonghyuk’s jaw dropped.

    His obsession?

    His obsession??

    His??? Obsession???

    Yoo Jonghyuk wasn’t the one who filled an entire notebook about the guy!!

    “I’ll show you who’s obsessed,” Yoo Jonghyuk grumbled. He tore a piece of paper from his notebook and started writing.

    Kim Dokja and Yoo Jonghyuk are friends who leave notes for each other in a locker.

    Only one of them knows who the other person is.

    Summary

    Later, they live out a whole new life as normal students and then normal members of society, and nothing bad at all happens. But they haven't escaped the shadow of their previous life: Joonghyuk tries to play e-sports seriously this time, Dokja works in a marginally better office, Sooyoung writes webnovels with unsurprising success. Every day they distance themselves from other people, too conscious of the world they left behind and the scars it left on them, and they don't live together again but oh, how they want to.

    Later, Dokja's father ends up disappearing without a trace, much neater than the first time around.

    Later, inevitably, they die again, one by one, but right now—

    Joonghyuk grips Dokja's pale wrist in a rundown playground, firm with the strength of his conviction, and at last, Dokja gives him a smile.

    Or, our luckless trio find themselves stuck in a cycle of reincarnation, and learn to live with it (and also each other).

    Summary

    “You would be different,” Yoo Joonghyuk says simply, “If you’d ever met that fool.”

    It’s a pointless thing to say.

    Because Jaehwan didn’t meet him.

    Summary

    "Everyone sees it," Joonghyuk says quietly. Firmly. "You do a terrible job of hiding it."

    "Hiding what?"

    "The fact that you don't think you should be here."

    Summary

    Kim Dokja grasps at his hands desperately. “Joonghyuk-ah. Was this not the world you wanted?”

    “What?”

    “Did I dream it wrong? Is that it? Is that why you’re so sad all the time? Do you—do you want me to dream it differently?”

    /

    (Post epilogue, Kim Dokja gets too caught up in his own head. He thinks that maybe, he should never have been here at all.)

    Until the day he learns that Yoo Joonghyuk never even knew the bond was there.

    What follows is a brand-new professional career, a journey through the memories of his long and checkered past with Yoo Joonghyuk, and a secret identity that really shouldn’t matter as much as it does.

    Yoo Joonghyuk and Kim Dokja's communication skills leave a lot to be desired, but as millennials, you'd think they'd at least remember to check their messages.

    Or: a look at what canon could have been if Midday Tryst had been used more often.

    Summary

    “It should have been me.”
    Han Sooyoung didn’t hesitate to reply, “You’re right. It should have been.“
    Han Sooyoung moved her eyes to his lips instead, and brought her hands up to cup his face. She felt scars and sharp edges under her that she would never feel on Kim Dokja’s face, but if she closes her eyes, she might be able to ignore them.

    Han Sooyoung and Yoo Joonghyuk weren't in love. It would be easier if they were.
