Summary
Jo has spent years haunting cemeteries alone, a solitary observer of the end of all things. In a desolate, forgotten graveyard where the living rarely venture, he finds a rare kind of peace.
One Sunday afternoon, the stillness is shattered when a white-haired boy in a brilliant shock of red crosses into his silent sanctuary. Suddenly, Jo’s carefully built routine turns to ash as he finds himself drawn toward the mysterious stranger in scarlet with the same devotion he once reserved for the dead.

Summary
For someone with a paralyzing phobia of needles, a tattoo parlor is the last place Euijoo belongs. But when his best friend asks him to play the "doting boyfriend" for a couple’s discount, Euijoo agrees to the ruse. His goal is simple: survive the hour, keep his eyes shut, and leave with his skin unscathed. He expected a funny story and a quick escape; he didn’t expect to stumble into the wildest version of himself yet.
Beneath the lavender lights and blue shadows of a shop called Ultramarine, Euijoo uncovers a side of himself he never knew existed. It’s all because of one irresistible man and the intoxicating pull of his craft. He came to help a friend, but he leaves haunted by the man behind the machine, and the deep, drowning world of ultramarine.

Summary
Euijoo meets Nicholas in a bar on Manhattan Beach Pier during the 2021 International Surf Festival. Nicholas is lean, blonde, bounces off the walls and laughs loud. His voice is deeper than it should be and he’s got little to no game, but Euijoo sticks around anyway. Nicholas is built and he’s hot, his shirt tight across his shoulders, his hair wild around his ears. He’s bright like sunshine and his lips are sinful when they wrap around the neck of a beer bottle or the rim of a glass of coke.
Nicholas doesn’t live too far from the pier; they walk side by side on the beach, talking about LA. Euijoo’s accent seems to stick to the roof of his mouth, and he pushes his hands in the pockets of his boardshorts to keep himself from reaching out, feeling Nicholas’s pulse at his wrist, seeing if it beats as fast as he talks. Nicholas takes his sandals off, toes digging in the sand.
Nicholas says, suddenly, cutting through the random topics they’re fleeting on, “I don’t really do this,” which seems like a lie until he adds, “With guys, I mean.”
To love is to change. Euijoo and Nicholas change each other, over the course of 5 summers.

Summary
“Oh, sure—the gay boy you’re in love with is suddenly marrying a woman and wants you there? The guy who’s famously never getting over him? Yeah, Nico. That makes total sense. Keep talking.”
The discarded sunglasses bounce off Yuma’s shoulder and clatter back onto the floor when Nicholas hurls them at him in retaliation.
After years of barely any contact, Euijoo invites Nicholas on a trip. It ends up being more than a simple getaway with an old friend.

Summary
In the past two months that they’d been dating, Kei had been nothing short of perfect– caring and communicative, he gave him infinite kisses and cuddles, told him how much he loved him any chance he got, and remained ever-patient with Taki’s various personality quirks. It helped that Kei had always been the one who knew him inside out, who’d seen him at his worst (sophomore year of high school, his first crack at musical theater, to be exact) and his best.
But therein lies the problem. Kei knew him too well, treated him too well.
And sometimes, Taki didn’t want to be treated well.
---
Taki wants to get freaky and Kei wants Taki.
