Summary
Hyunjin has lived a life of betrayal and abandonment, but with Chris, he trusts like he used to.
Perhaps it's the fact that Chris is as fucked-up in the head as him, another freak in the show, damaged in ways that make him cling to his own kind with a sick insistence. He'd spent precious years of his brain developement age alone, his brain cells knitting around the terror of having no one and trapping it inside him for good. Hyunjin has taken a desperate liking to him, in part because he knows Chris would rather sink with him in the misery than leaving him stranded. And in part, because he —little defensive vermin from the suburbs— bares his teeth and growls at people when they so much as look at Hyunjin the wrong way.
That's a new discovery that sends Hyunjin's blood to a boil.
Is it normal, wanting like that? Probably not. But Hyunjin accepted long ago that he ain't quite right. Seventy-five percent human; the rest, a puppet whose strings are proverbial and yet tangled into an insolvable knot.
or;
Hyunjin and Chris are lovers under the big top of a circus, and as consensual as they are, sane doesn't touch them.
