    Summary

    The Countdown gives the world one week — 168 hours.

    Generally human reaction is predictable. Panic and hoarding and reclusion. Denial and cable-watching and shrugging over potluck dinners, though next week’s plans are suddenly a little tentative. Pilgrimage to holy places and proselytizing on big stages and a good number drink bleach. People sell their homes, quit their jobs, kill their bosses, spend lifesavings on life-long dreams or feed it into a machine, and the economy braces at the tickle of a devastating sneeze. As the days drip away, Christmas lights go up, the rich leave in spaceships, neighbours sing hymns in the street, cities burn, a dog curls up and falls asleep.

    Before all this — six days before the clock hits zero — Byun Euijoo steals his mother’s car, leaves in the night with just his phone and a grade 12 essay that he never submitted, and Wang Nicholas sets out hitchhiking.

    every fic written by this author leaves me feeling achy and rubbed raw, like exposing a part of myself i haven’t paid much attention to before. magic.

    Summary

    There were rules to Fuma's surveillance. The first was: don’t engage. His trade was observation. Part of it was, at least. Unless there was a threat, he did not intervene.

    The second rule was: don’t overstep. He liked to watch Bora, that dour face, an unapologetic discontent. Yudai, harried and impatient, was endearing at times as well. If Fuma had no willpower, he might follow them in every banal moment of the day.

    The third rule: don’t wonder. Bora did not remember him. Yudai had never even laid eyes on him. He was nothing to them.

    That was a good thing.

    Summary

    Harua made a mad dash the last few meters…right into the arms of the stranger next to Jo. The stranger received him easily and Harua squealed as he was spun.

    "Who's that?" Taki whispered, not-so-quietly. "His hair looks like sakura blossoms."

    "I dunno," Maki said, also not-quietly.

    "I told you guys already!" Harua said with the stranger's hand in his. "My brother is picking me up. This is Nico-nii."

    Jo almost wanted to faint. What are the odds that the pretty, intimidating stranger that sat next to Jo was the brother of one of Maki's best friends?

    Summary

    See, this is the way their dynamic falls into place. Nicholas grabs Euijoo and pulls, and Euijoo allows himself to be dragged along. It’s a bit like orbiting the sun; you can’t help the pull nor the motion, but it’s not like you mind. You really don’t mind at all.

    or, what it means to truly know someone.
