Summary
“Pardon me, Your Majesty. I, uh, don't remember the part after.”
“I told you to stop calling me that, didn't I?”
The question is asked as Jeno spins him around, and Jeno thanks his lucky stars that Jaemin can't see his flinch.
“I,” Jeno clears his throat. “I'm sorry, Nana. Habit.”
It's a lame excuse, he knows. They both do. That habit has waned off a long time ago. But to call Jaemin with a name no one else dares to refer to him with, in such a tender moment… he doesn't think his heart can take it.
Because the man in his arms is not meant to be his.
Or: Lee Jeno is a knight. Na Jaemin is his king. Somewhere along the way, that line blurs a little, and Jeno finds himself falling for a man who is destined for someone else.

Summary
“The Head Family wants you to mate.”
“Yeah.” Jeno pauses, as if waiting for a response, but none comes. “He offered me a deal.”
“...What kind?”
Jeno stays silent for a few seconds, gathering his thoughts, trying to thread a dangerous line. “Either I step up as the new Head or… Well, marry an omega.”
“You're gonna go with the second option.”
It's not meant to come out accusatory. It's supposed to serve as a question; for Jaemin to reassure Jeno that he fully supports his decision.
It does anyway.
Or: Jaemin is a skilled killer, beta, and above all, Jeno's bodyguard. Neither of them planned on falling in love with each other, yet here they are.

Summary
“Anyways! The 75th Hunger Games is coming soon, the Quarter Quell! Jaemin, how do you feel about this as a Victor? Is there anything you’d like to say to the soon-to-be-Tributes?”
Jaemin stays silent for a while before lifting the mic to his mouth, his hand gripping Jeno’s like it’s his lifeline.
“I’d say... ‘may the odds be in your favor,’ but that would be a lie, wouldn’t it? It has never been in our favor. The battlefield is cruel, but whatever you do, do not lose yourself. That is all.”
“You may survive the Games, but you can’t ever leave it. He understands it perfectly now. The guilt of killing other people still gnaws at his heart, it feels wrong to be here after he bloodied his hands. A murderer shouldn’t be looked up upon, they should be shunned and locked away in a jail cell.
He shouldn’t be here.

Summary
Being impulsive has never been Jeno’s thing.
He thinks with his mind calm even in the stormiest of situations. Waves would clash as people would yell, trouble stirring beneath the gray clouds, and he would still assess the situation passively. He adapts to changes and overcomes them as easy as breathing. He’s never been afraid of the Reaping nor the Hunger Games itself.
But at this moment, his heart thunders even more than it ever has.
“For the male tribute… Zhong Chenle!”
His hand shoots up quicker than anyone else’s in the field. Barely taking in a breath, he yells,
“I volunteer!”

Summary
Katsuki breathes out through his nose, and starts moving his boxes through the threshold. Tadaima, he thinks sarcastically. He hopes the other one — no, Todoroki Shouto — won’t be home.
But of course luck’s not on his side.
There he is, the bastard, leaning against the kitchen counter, blinking at Katsuki as he slurps from a cup of cheap instant noodles. He has the same blank look on his face as he had during their first meeting on the UN carrier.
Angels are waging war on humanity. Katsuki answers the call to the frontlines, but between his growing attraction to his copilot Todoroki and the struggle to come out of each battle safe and whole, he may be in for more than he signed up for.
(Can be enjoyed with no context on Neon Genesis Evangelion.)

Summary
Truth is, Jeno never really thought about love before. He has thought of other people as pretty, some even left him awestruck at first sight. Everything he felt was never more than slight infatuation, however.
When Jaemin crashed into his life, Jeno’s emotions were amplified tenfold. Jaemin's gaze, Jaemin's smile, Jaemin's tender caresses—everything, Jeno wants all of it. With half a mind to question what these foreign feelings are, Jeno turns to the ever reliable Doyoung to ask. In turn, Doyoung beams and laughs and starts babbling about the word ‘love’.
So, Jeno concludes that love is merely the dictionary definition of what Na Jaemin is to him.
