    Summary

    “No.” Yoo Joonghyuk is the first to speak, but it doesn’t sound like Yoo Joonghyuk because the word is quiet and disbelieving. It’s a weak, desperate sound.

    The skies are silent.

    “This is bullshit.” Han Sooyoung finally burst out, her face contorted with rage. “If you show us all that- display it like it’s some sort of sick TV show- at least let us help before-” Her voice cracked.

    Their incorporeal shadows couldn’t even shift the dirt Kim Dokja’s blood was quickly oozing onto.

    “Before this stupid moron jumps!”

    Summary

    Dokja stares at him like he’d torn his beating heart out from his chest, like he’d suffered harsh winters all his life and only just felt the warmth of sunlight.

    It was a rather dramatically ruined expression for something that Joonghyuk thought was common sense.

    “Why…?” Dokja croaked as tears continue to bead and fall.

    It’s okay though: Joonghyuk would spend lifetimes wiping them away.

    (or, Kim Dokja doesn't know why Yoo Joonghyuk cares. Yoo Joonghyuk thinks Kim Dokja is the biggest fool alive.)

    Summary

    “You know how much my grandfather has been pushing for marriage,” Joonghyuk attempts to reason.

    “He won’t like me,” Dokja argues.

    Joonghyuk is used to this, of course. “He’s traditional, and you’re with,” he pauses, “my child. He’ll beat me once and tell me to wed you.”

    He said ‘my child’. Wow. “There’s nothing stopping him from suspecting that I was the one who seduced you.”

    At that, Joonghyuk starts looking him up and down. “I doubt he will.”

    “... What’s that supposed to mean?”

    Long-time friends Joonghyuk and Dokja fall into bed on an unlucky night and it produces... results. Naturally, Dokja attempts to flee, only for Joonghyuk to make an offer that he can't bring himself to decline, for some reason.

    Summary

    He continued to stare.

    A beast so beautiful, so regal bleeding out at Kim Dokja's feet. And though he might be an ancient spirit, one that has seen and lived through so much, it was in this moment that he was nothing more than a mere tiny fox, hungry and cold and greedy.

    A tiny fox with a decision to make.

    OR

    Kim Dokja is a spirit who happens upon a gruesome scene in which he must decide whether to save or leave a bastard wolf to its own demise.
