    Summary

    They are stopped at a crosswalk across from their university. “I get that. I have so many expectations upon myself that it is hard to keep track, and I don’t blame you for avoiding it instead.” The light turns to walk but Chan does not make an effort to move. “Do you want to do something else, actually? I don’t really want to study right now.” I want to spend time with you goes unsaid.

    From the moment Chan met Wonwoo, he was infected by parasites. The parasites ate away at him until all that was left was an empty husk of something that resembled a person, and the remnants of a need for Wonwoo.

    or; chan has always wanted to be someone else. someone better, anyone other than the person he is. he keeps pretending, surrounded by friends who never really knew him.

    then wonwoo appears, soft-spoken and sharp-eyed, offering cream puffs and conversation that feels like breathing for the first time. for a moment, chan forgets to lie. for a moment, he’s just a boy beside another boy beneath a starry sky, wanting something real.

    Summary

    It was so performative, it made his skin crawl.

    But he wanted to send it. Wanted to apologize. Because, somewhere down there, he wasn’t sure at all that Wonwoo cared. He needed to apologize, to not be a burden, because, well… he was. Wasn’t he? A burden, a bother, a row of unread texts left to the last minute.

    Was it performative, was it attention-seeking, if he didn’t think he deserved any attention at all? Was it performative, if he knew the ending, but still couldn’t be sure of it?

    or, vernon struggles to walk the line between being a burden and asking for help.

    Summary

    Wonwoo only ever wanted a quiet, peaceful life. When he finally finds it, he never expects that love would come along with it—unexpected, gentle, and completely life-changing. After all, they say the best way to a person’s heart is through their stomach, and that’s exactly what Mingyu did.

    Summary

    As the Magnum Opus performance club welcomes a new wave of members, the group’s long-standing harmony begins to shift.

    Among them is Yunjin, whose distant attitude seems tied to something within the club she cannot leave behind. Jiwoo, a former student council president once certain of her future, finds that certainty wavering as transfer student Carmen quietly makes her way into her life. Meanwhile, Wonyoung carefully maintains the image everyone expects of her, even as the pressure behind it quietly grows.

    Between practice room mirrors, leadership, misunderstandings, and unspoken feelings, the distance between people may prove harder to navigate than any performance.

    (This is a project of interconnected, episodic stories centered on Jiwoo, Wonyoung, and Jinni, but all tagged characters has their own meaningful role. Each stories can be read independently, shifting perspectives and dynamics while gradually building a larger narrative orbiting the performance club. Currently ~60% complete!)

    Summary

    “I won’t run away ever again.” I said softly once we parted. He brushed his hand over my lips, whispering, “And even if you do, I’ll always be by your side.”

     

    Lee Jihoon, or Woozi, was a person with many many hidden secrets. Even his closest 12 friends and members didn't know about his secrets. Kwon Soonyoung, or Hoshi, was an energetic person who was a little too loud for his member's liking, but was showered with love all the time. Then one day, something happened where Hoshi finds out about Woozi's deepest darkest secrets.

    “Do you like ice cream?”
    No answer.

    “Chocolate or vanilla?”

    “…chocolate mint.”

    “Eww.”

    He shrugged. “But I like it.”
    Silence stretched for a bit. Then a tiny smile tugged at his lips. Almost invisible.

    Or,
    Seungcheol's brief escape plan, which was seen as a suicide plan by others, ended with eating ice cream.
