    Summary

    Growing up, Hongjoong had heard whispered tales about the Manyeo, a cult of dark magic users that were stolen as children and moulded to become monsters. Some say that they trade their souls for power, some say that they kill anyone who sees them, some say that they're just a myth to make children behave. Once he became an adult, a pirate captain, Hongjoong had passed the Manyeo off as being figures of fiction.

    But the man locked in an enemy ship's brig had all the signs: the tattoos down his back, the dye that stained his fingertips, the clothes and weapons and jewellery. Maybe he really was a Manyeo, and maybe that was why his lips had been sewn shut. You can't cast spells if you can't speak.

    If he had been a wise man, Hongjoong would have killed the stranger while he was weak. If he had been a wise man, he wouldn't have looked into the other's eyes and noticed how they seemed to hold all the stars from the night sky. But Hongjoong had never claimed to be a wise man, and he wasn't about to start now.

    Summary

    He has another reason for loving the job, but one that he keeps largely to himself.

    Seungmin also very much enjoys watching the men on campus lift and push heavy things, watching them sweat and pant, emerge from the showers with wet hair, warm soft skin, tired and smelling good, smiling at Seungmin on their way out. That part doesn’t go unappreciated.

    Kim Seungmin is an insomniac that works the late shift at the front desk of his campus' gym. Seo Changbin is a transfer student, frequent gym attendee, and already friends with all of Seungmin's friends before he can do anything about it.
