    Summary

    “I’m serious,” the chemist insists at the warning drawl, “You’ve got nothing to worry about.”

    “I’ve got everything to worry about,” Soonyoung replies pointedly, subconsciously mirroring the smile directed at him.

    “Because I’m your everything?”

    Soonyoung purses his lips as if he wants to give a witty response, but ends up settling for sincerity, “Yes, you are.”

    Summary

    Jeon Wonwoo is steadily tracking towards self-destruction within the next year or so, and Mingyu's task is to put him on a path to improving his health instead. Between living together and learning from each other, it soon becomes clear that Mingyu is unlike any other commercially available android. Gradually, Wonwoo feels his entire worldview being rewritten as Mingyu challenges everything he thought he knew about androids.

    Or, days in the lives of a burnt-out corporate slave and his atypical domestic bot.

    Summary

    “Are we under attack right now?” Wonwoo fakes looking around and Soonyoung aims a lazy kick at him under the table, meeting only air.

    “You know what I mean.” Soonyoung tilts further into the table, his nose squashing uncomfortably.

    He remembers those early days when the shock of first attacks was replaced by the realisation that, yes, this was their new normal and that, no, there was no way to control what was to come. He remembers the waves of panic only quelled by steadfast determination to try and survive, to try and preserve some form of future for themselves. He remembers the first time the announcement that a Kaiju was coming was tinged with excitement, as well as fear.

    Wonwoo sighs and closes the book fully. “I thought you were meant to use this time to rest. To heal.”

    Summary

    There is a kind of love that says, "There is not a single person in this world who knows you better than I do. I have lived in the entire spectrum between your sorrows and your joys. When I look at you, I feel the depths of my emotions twofold, like a feedback loop between our hearts."

    Then, there is the kind that says, "Hey, I brought your favourite milk tea. Don't forget to eat, okay?"

    Or, ex-jaeger pilots Mingyu and Wonwoo try to navigate love – the normal kind.

    Summary

    That is to say, they're bonded for life. It was a pact signed in blood the moment they matched each other on that first blow in the combat room, the sound of wood against wood ear-splitting and absolute. He's known since he looked Mingyu in the eyes over the staff in his hands and something like electricity zipped down his spine.

    I will go wherever you go, to the ends of the universe and back.

    Summary

    Not for the first time, Wonwoo wonders if this is what it’ll always be like: the promised neverland of a promotion, working 40 hours a week with increasing expectations of overtime, spending the two days—if he’s lucky to get that much—of the weekend on chores and errands and desperate attempts to relax. A persistent lack of energy.

    Tired and overworked, Wonwoo finds comfort in the taste of homemade kimchi—and love in the boy who delivers them.

    Summary

    Hyunseok looks at him. Really, properly looks at him. “So you don’t want to go to the lab and try to help develop a potential cure for the zombie virus.” He speaks slowly, carefully. Like he’s really trying to understand what is going on in Jihoon’s head. “You’d rather stay here, with twelve men who keep pretending to be infected so they have an excuse to kiss you on the mouth.”

    “I mean, when you put it like that it sounds bad.” Jihoon winces, but he doesn’t feel particularly ashamed. “Besides, I can always just give the scientist guys some more blood to fuck around with if they really need it.”

    “Jesus fucking Christ.” Hyunseok says, digging the heels of his palms into his eyes. “Okay. Alright.”

    Summary

    Some days Jihoon really has to pinch himself when he thinks how differently this could have all turned out.
    If he’d just taken a different road, left the bunker a day or even an hour later, he would have never crossed paths with the assholes who stabbed him, never met Seungcheol either, and as a result, he’d probably be long dead by now.

    Summary

    Soonyoung had crushes over the years. Debilitating crushes, apocalyptic crushes that made it feel like Soonyoung’s entire world was ending. But they’re crushes he could never, ever admit to for fear of death - dramatic, but true.

    Writing the letters helped him get closure, so he didn’t have to go through the inevitable pain of rejection. Something about the act of sealing them, stamping them, and tricking his brain into thinking that he was going to confess would help him move on.

    Warily, Soonyoung eyes him. “You promise you’re not going to try to kill me?”

    Wonwoo nods, smile returning to his face slowly. “Not today.”
