    Summary

    it drags its sharp, biting nails along the skin of your belly, snaring you in its claws, cutting into baby soft flesh and leaving behind beads of blood in its wake as it tears the fragile lining of your stomach in a straight line, allowing your guts to spill out onto the bottomless floor. you know you are screaming, but you make no sound at all. it tells you it loves you.

    or,

    jake dreams.

    Summary

    johan is curled up next to you on your bed, held close to your chest, soft, expensive sheets draped over his too skinny body. he is, you think, exactly where he is meant to be: by your side, within your reach, vulnerable and soft enough in this moment to allow you to care.

    or,

    a moment between zack and johan, in the midst of everything.

    Summary

    It’s gone too far, and he only realizes this when it’s a dark and rainy night, and he’s with Tengen—he doesn’t even know when he started calling him by his first name—in his estate like he always is these days. He’s standing in the kitchen and chiding him for the wet footprints he left on the pristine floor he’d finished cleaning a mere moment ago, and trying to furiously scrub a dirt stain out of his haori.

    His hand is fisted in the fabric, still very much draped over the older man’s body, trying in vain to get it out with a wet towel alone, glaring a hole into the silk as if it’ll help. Tengen is rolling his eyes and pretending like he can’t hear him, one of the girls nodding along to every lecturing word Giyuu says with a matching scowl on her face, and that’s when it hits: somehow, somewhere along the way, he’s fit himself into their family.

    or,

    How Giyuu accidentally becomes Tengen's fourth wife.

    Summary

    “i didn’t know you cared what was bad for me.” it’s said lightly, no change in tone, but sigyeong is smart enough to see it for the warning it is. jaeha blows smoke into his face because he can, and watches sigyeong’s hand twitch, as if it wants to form a fist.

    it’s silent for a moment, and then it’s not. “me neither.” sigyeong laughs, and that’s the end of it.

    perhaps that’s why jaeha remembers that particular instance so well. it was something new, something different amongst the miles of memories he has of sigyeong. a slight crack in the mask he never realized the bastard was wearing.

    or,

    jaeha thinks about sigyeong. a lot.

    Summary

    When Kim Dokja had said he had a good feeling about the scenario, he had meant it; even if Yoo Joonghyuk had originally done it by himself in the novel, Kim Dokja reasoned that it couldn’t be too different. There was absolutely no way Yoo Joonghyuk would regret begrudgingly ‘agreeing’ to letting Kim Dokja in on it.

    [Hidden Scenario - The Consummation of a New Love]
    Category: Hidden
    Difficulty: ???
    Clear Conditions: 2 incarnations perform all 5 required steps chosen by the constellation for intercourse.
    Time Limit: 3 hours
    Compensation: 20,000 coins, an SSS-grade item
    Failure: Death

    It’s like the temperature of the room dropped below freezing. Yoo Joonghyuk whipped around immediately to face him, eyebrows pinched together tightly in fury causing wrinkles on his forehead, a dark, stormy expression on his handsome face suggesting his immediate murder. He’s so fucked.

    “Kim Dokja.” Yoo Joonghyuk growls lowly, hand already reaching down to rest on his sheathed sword. “You are dead.”

    “Yeah,” Kim Dokja finds himself saying for once, voice weak. “That’s fair.”

    or,

    Kim Dokja and Yoo Joonghyuk do nasty things together.

    Summary

    “That hat looks stupid as fuck on you,” he says instead, because, objectively, it really does.

    The faker cocks his head to the side. His beady, lifeless eyes remain unblinking still. “Stupid,” he croaks out, voice sounding almost robotic, choppy and scratchy and just wrong. “On you. Bitch.”

    Alright. Okay. Maybe his mimicry isn’t as shit as Collin originally thought.

    or,

    Collin can be kind. When he wants to be.

    Summary

    Both their heads snap toward the direction of one of the bathroom cabinets below the sink. Kris’ hand darts out to grasp at her arm, trying to tug her away, but they’re not fast enough and Susie’s palm has already enclosed around the knob. She pulls it open without a second thought, her eyebrows furrowing. Inside, almost inconspicuously, lies a beating red heart, a human soul, the very same that should currently be inside of Kris’ body.

    or,

    Kris and Susie finally work on their fuckass group project. No they don't.

    Summary

    And from the corner of her eye, she sees it. It’s hard to understand how she hadn’t taken notice of it before; it’s not particularly small, it’s too bright to blend seamlessly into their carpet, and it’s certainly not unmistakable. It’s a blood stain, clear as day, and it’s in front of the bed that Kris lies in and sleeps in and spends majority of their day in, at least, they did before they met her and before they met Ralsei and before they all knew the dark world existed.

    At least, before she knew the dark world existed.

    Looking at the bird cage that feels awfully lonely with no clear sign of a muse, at the unnaturally red stain that has seemingly sat there long enough to have seeped into the fabric of their woolen carpet and etch the liquid firmly into the fibers, she wonders. She wonders how much Kris—who has gotten much quieter since the day they opened the dark world together, who never sounds like themself anymore—just doesn’t bother to tell her.

    or,

    Susie notices. God, of course she notices.

    Summary

    or,

    samuel hates jake maybe more than he has ever hated anything in his life. he loves him all the same.

    Summary

    Mira nudges him when it’s time for them to begin the prayer. Zack, who has never been—and likely never will be—religious, clasps his hands together and allows his eyes to slip closed. The scratchy fabric of the handcrafted bracelet Johan’s mother had carefully tied around his wrist presses into his skin, and he concentrates as hard as he possibly can as he makes his plea to God.

    I want to protect Mira, he thinks. His eyes flutter open then, and almost instinctively, his gaze catches on the boy with soft brown curls and the warm smile of a still innocent child. But, please, let me protect Johan too, he adds a moment later in his head.

    or,

    Zack can’t remember a time where he hadn’t wanted to protect Johan (nor can he remember a time where Johan wanted him to).

    Summary

    Goo doesn’t seem as banged up as Gun is, and the fact both irritates him and excites him. It’s new; it’s a challenge. There’s blood running down his face and he can feel the ache of a new scar throbbing right between his pitch black eyes, and with the distasteful way Goo had been looking at him before he thinks that maybe one day he’ll die at the hands of this boy.

    A shiver runs down his spine, something buzzing just under his skin. A genuine smile stretches wide across his still bloody face. He’s never felt so damn exhilarated in his entire life.

    or,

    The aftermath of their first ever fight.

    Summary

    He’s grinning now, the smile stretched wide across his face in a way that Gun thinks makes him look uglier than usual. It’s admittedly his favorite smile on him. “It only took a little bit of bribery to convince them.”

    “Bribery?” Gun sighs, straightening up in his chair finally, resting his arms on his knees. “Of course.”

    “Yep!” He chirped, still grinning at him. “All on your card, don’t worry.”

    “..How the fuck did you get access to my card.”

    or,

    Goo finally gets the chance to visit Gun in prison.

    Summary

    “He feels Chishiya’s hand grip his wrist before he sees the grenade thrown in front of them, and lets out a surprised yelp as Chishiya pulls him away from the car. ”That’s bad,” Chishiya mumbles to himself before calling out to Tatta to drive as he runs away, dragging Arisu along with him.”

    or,

    Arisu and Chishiya are forcefully separated from the others during the beginning of the King of Spades game.
