Summary
“You’ll give it to me later, yeah?” Hyeongjun says, wry. He’s not fooling Seungmin, the blush dusting his cheeks so deep it might as well be permanent. “After the shoot?”
Really, it had been a confession. Seungmin pried it out of him, half of Hyeongjun’s face cast in his lamp’s harsh LED glow. Not exactly mood lighting. Hyeongjun’s room is softer, lived-in. Maybe if they had been in there, Hyeongjun’s words would’ve flowed more freely.

Summary
Hongjoong’s hand slips under his jacket, Seonghwa watching the clerk’s eyes be drawn to the movement. Through one layer, Seonghwa blinks in time with Hongjoong’s fingertips, tracing something unknowable over his skin.
Seonghwa waits for Hongjoong to correct him. Waits for him to wave his hand, laugh, and say he’s my friend, we sing together, and for the clerk to get flustered over his mistake.
“My wife likes red wine,” He says, instead. “So, you can pick.”
“Naturalmente.” The clerk smiles at Seonghwa, and gives Hongjoong the room key.

Summary
Nathan pulls Axiom into his arms. The warmth of their skin buzzes, like it’ll spark with the electricity in the air. Axiom bends into his embrace, voice labored with panting.
“We did it,” He says, low, though there isn’t a crowd in the world that would block Nathan from hearing him.
He’s not brave. He tells himself that he is, all the time. A brave man would peel off Axiom’s mask.

Summary
The silence is not necessarily companionable, but it's not hostile. It’s restless, feeding off Bron’s fire, even the embers it’s stoking right now. Simmering heat, a promise. Seth sees the future.
Seth remembers what it was like when he was Bron’s age, but he never cut the shape that Bron does. Bron oozes intimidation like it’s his job.
He’s not shy, either, apparently, because across the locker room he’s stripping down right there, uncaring of who’s watching. Which is to say– Seth. Seth’s watching, closer than he should admit.

Summary
There’s an abrasive grip on his shoulder, Punk’s pulling him up. Tyler wants to be impressive, wants to look composed, but Punk’s biting near his lip ring. He’s smiling.
“Okay, kid,” Punk says, and all of Tyler’s other senses go out the window, “Good one, Tyler.”
Tyler can only mutter t-thanks, as he’s escorted out of the ring. Some guys clap him on the back, and a few others look away.
The name Tyler's gotta stick. CM Punk’s said it, twice.

Summary
It’s happened enough times by now that it feels like a running joke. Seonghwa throws out a complaint about never being praised properly. Hongjoong meets it with an easy grin and just enough teasing in his tone to keep it from tipping into anything serious. The members laugh, the staff laughs too, and the moment passes like it always does.
And afterward, Seonghwa leaves everything exactly as it is. He straightens his posture, gathers whatever dignity remains, and pretends—very convincingly, he thinks—that he has absolutely no deeper emotional investment in the situation whatsoever.
Seonghwa tells himself he is above fishing for compliments. This belief lasts right up until Hongjoong is the one withholding them.

Summary
Jeong Yunho, 25, Beloved South Korean Pop Soloist, Caught Paying for Sex With Another Man, flashed through Yunho's head.
“I didn’t hire you,” he blurted and Hongjoong’s expression barely changed. “My manager,” Yunho cleared his throat, trying to think before he opened his mouth and revealed more than he had to. Like how, despite his popularity, Yunho’s last girlfriend was in elementary school. He didn’t really drink or have sex or participate in anything too unsavory without getting hot flashes due to nerves. Prostitution was one of those unsavory things and Yunho could feel the heat climbing up his neck as Hongjoong tilted his head. “I think he had the wrong idea.”
“I don’t do refunds,” Hongjoong said flatly and Yunho froze.
In which abura soba is dethroned as Yunho's favorite thing in Japan.

Summary
They’re in rehearsal before their last two concerts in Kobe when it happens. It’s just one bad landing, his foot slipping where the stage is dented slightly in one place. No one else notices at first, but Seonghwa feels more than hears the sickening pop in his knee.
The pain that erupts through his body makes dark spots appear, dancing, in his field of vision. He looks around, but no one is there to catch him, so he stays upright, tears springing to his eyes.
Seonghwa and the difficult art of letting yourself be taken care of.

Summary
Hongjoong doesn't know how he ended up here, under the flashing lights of a gay club and the influence of an ungodly cocktail. He doesn't know how to be this person he's been suppressing for decades, how to take something he wants just for the sake of it, without the shame and secrecy he's carried with him all his life.
But Seonghwa radiates shamelessness—so much so that Hongjoong can feel it seep into him with every touch, every kiss, every burst of pleasure he's denied himself for years.
Seonghwa knows what he wants, and he's confident that he knows exactly what Hongjoong wants too.

Summary
After a few dead ends, Seonghwa finally found the door marked “Third Officer.” He hesitated, the ship’s gentle rocking suddenly more noticeable as he crouched to slide the envelope underneath the door, his hand trembling.
No going back now.
Seonghwa straightened and turned to go, feeling an instant flood of relief—until, for the second time that week, he nearly collided with someone standing right behind him.
“Are you always in the habit of sneaking around, Mr. Park?”
—
In 1909, chance meetings on the S.S. Runic set Seonghwa on a journey through Edwardian London, New York, and the depths of the Atlantic aboard the Titanic.
