    Summary

    “Okay, I'm calling the cops,” is all it takes for the boy to stand up, wrapping a hand around Seonghyeon's forearm.

    “But master,” he calls again, voice as soft as velvet.

    Seonghyeon isn’t too sure why warmth settles in his stomach at that.

    “And stop calling me master,” he commands.

    “Why?” the stranger bats his long lashes at him as he tilts his head. “You're my master–”

    “Hyung,” he corrects, very much aware that he's been seconds away from losing control and raising his voice. “Just... Just stick to hyung,”

    When the boy offers him his brightest, biggest smile, shouting an enthusiastic “Alright, hyung!”, Seonghyeon knows it's about to be a long day.

    Or

    Seonghyeon wakes up to a cute stranger naked in his bed. Spoiler alert: it's not a one-night-stand but the human version of his puppy.

    Summary

    Marlboros reds, shitty Midwest band practice, and rainy mornings.

    In a town where everything is inherited — pain, suffering, stagnation, and bubbling anger — Seonghyeon, a faux pessimist, desperately wants to break free. Keonho is that ticket, yet the one most doomed of continuation.

    Hope … is the most dangerous drug of all.

    Summary

    when two people get into a situationship, it never ends well. why? because if you can’t keep up with the complicated lines of a story, then you can’t read the book properly. if your book is too difficult, then get a different book.

    or

    after another argument because juhoon can’t keep up with tarzzan’s continuous annoying bullshit, they turn distant again. and that distance haunts tarzzan like a soul-sucking ghost. meanwhile, juhoon could care less. he’s seeing somebody else anyway.

    but what happens when tarzzan shows up at juhoon’s door?

    Summary

    Reminded by the chill instantly, she shakes on his tuxedo jacket over her frame. They stop on the second step of the staircase. “What do you remember?”

    Wyatt presses his backside against the railing, taking a hollow breath. She watches him fidget with a loose chip of paint. “I remember getting on that hovercraft thinking I only had minutes before I would get slaughtered on live television.” He recalls, completely straight-forward. “Something went wrong. Now I’m back home. Older, and engaged.”

    It sounds so simple when he says it.

    [Or: The hovercraft that was on track to transport the tributes to the arena never reaches its destination. Upon the accident, Wyatt and Maysilee awake in a much less brutal world instead of dying, crashing their very own wedding.]

    Summary

    It was like fate was tempting her, because the next afternoon, Maysilee spots Wyatt Callow outside of the café for the first time. All the while, Haymitch’s words can’t stop ringing through her head: You miss one-hundred percent of the shots you don’t take.

    Fortunately, he’s sitting alone in the library, his face in a book as he furiously scribbles notes. Maysilee can’t make out the subject, prays to god that he’s not a smelly Computer Science major, and realizes that she still can’t figure out a good way to approach him.

    Like, ‘Hello, we’ve never really spoken outside of your workplace, but I think you’re really pretty, and you should model for me.’ Who says that?

    [or, maysilee is a frustrated fashion major in need of a model, wyatt is a barista, and haymitch quotes wayne gretsky]
