    Summary

    When Nicholas just stares at him in stunned silence, Euijoo continues with more fervor, “We’re going to be together so much that you’re going to get sick of me.”

    And watching the way Euijoo’s face sets into a determined scowl, Nicholas decides that he doesn’t think he’ll ever get sick of this boy.

    -
    or: the one where Nicholas and Euijoo are cast-off orphans on a junker planet on the edge of the solar system. Tracing a winding path from their first meeting as children to the terrible accident at seventeen that changed them forever, they attempt to confront their grief and guilt as adults while mending the rift that opened up between them in the years since that horrible night.

    Summary

    "you hate me," nicholas whispers, lips brushing against his pulse, feeling the way it races. his grip tightens around euijoo’s waist, possessive. "because i make you weak."

    euijoo should be furious. should shove him away. should press the gun deeper and remind himself that this is war, that this isn't a game, that nicholas is the reason for the blood on his hands, the scars on his body, the weight in his chest that never goes away.

    but nicholas is so warm.
    and euijoo is so cold.

    so he kisses him back.

    (or: euijoo never thought he’d see nicholas again—until the day he’s sent to hunt him down.
    now, standing on opposite sides of a war, with a gun between them, euijoo realizes too late—

    nicholas was never just another criminal.
    and he was never just another enforcer. )

    Summary

    “I think the kids might be a little… you know… scared of him.”

    Fuma raised an eyebrow. “Which ones?”

    Euijoo froze. “...I’m sorry?”

    “Which kids do you think are scared of Nicholas? Did any of them mention something to you?”

    “It’s not that they mentioned anything per se.”

    “Are any of them acting differently around him?”

    “Well… no.”

    Fuma blinked a few times, waiting for Euijoo to elaborate or offer up some sort of actual explanation then. He didn’t – just stood there with his arms crossed too tightly across his chest to be casual, one of his hike-worn sneakers thumping an offbeat rhythm against the wooden floor.

    Fuma’s eyebrows pulled together slowly. “Then I don’t follow.”

    “Fine, it’s me, okay? He scares me.”

    -

    Wherein Euijoo is a camp counselor tasked with training one of the new hires – a guy with sleepy eyes and a perpetual i’ll-kill-you stare.

    Summary

    The first time Euijoo comes to pick Seokryu up without Nicholas in the passenger seat, Jihye looks genuinely shocked.

    “You know,” Euijoo says dryly, strapping Seokryu into her car seat, “Nicholas has a life outside of me, right?”

    “Funny,” she says, “it doesn’t seem like he knows that.”

    She gives him a look that makes him drop his eyes again, warmth at the tips of his ears. He escapes at a perfectly safe and reasonable speed limit, then sits in the car once he pulls into his apartment parking lot and boxes that thought away with all his other inconvenient thoughts.

    -
    or: the one where Euijoo's one night stand ends in him being a father at age 26. He finds himself leaning on Nicholas, the three of them more and more entwined with each passing year.

    Summary

    As far as favours went, this one was an easy one – help Riki’s friend from his dance club pass his first year biology course. Jake could do it in his sleep. He scans the library, realizing belatedly that Riki’s description of you’ll know him when you see him was entirely untrue, because Jake had no idea which one of these studying students was expecting him here ten minutes ago. His eyes land on a guy, sitting alone at a table without so much as a pencil in front of him, and –

    Huh. He doesn't look like a freshman.

    He looks a lot like Heeseung Lee, actually.

    Or, Jake isn't anything like the girls Heeseung normally goes for, but he's starting to think he might want him anyway.
