    Summary

    Once upon a time, there was a man who wagered against the stars.

    But victory was not his.

    “Tell me, Han Yoojin-gun,” he says idly, “what do you think it means to be mortal?”

    Han Yoojin raises an eyebrow, unimpressed. “Ugh. Why are all you S-Ranks like this? Did the fight knock something loose in your head?”

    “Humor me.”

    Han Yoojin sighs, tilting his head as if considering. “You’re not a god. You’re human. Mortality means you’re allowed to screw up,” he says eventually. “You make mistakes, you die, and the world keeps going without you.”

    “And if the world doesn’t let you die?”

    Han Yoojin snorts. “Then you’re just unlucky.”

    Unlucky. Sung Hyunjae doesn’t laugh this time.
