    Summary

    Jihoon has no idea what he should be doing here.

    If the Bureau has a Standard Operating Procedure in place, to direct him on what to do in the extremely unlikely event he crash lands on a deserted island with a highly dangerous criminal, he’s never read it.
    Other than sit tight and wait for rescue (and keep an eye on Seungcheol in case he somehow succeeds in building a raft and rowing away) he’s at a loss.

    It certainly doesn’t help that Seungcheol doesn’t see himself as a prisoner, and thus fails to subscribe to any of the typical prisoner behaviours one would expect. Sure, he might fashion himself a wicked looking knife out of scrap metal and leather, spend an hour sharpening it while he stares menacingly into the middle distance, but then he’ll go use that knife to make Jihoon a parasol out of palm tree fronds and insist he sit under it because—

    “No offence, but you’re paler than a daikon radish. Until we get our hands on some sun block, you need to stay in the shade. In fact, here, take my shirt.”

    It seems stupid to stay on your toes around a guy who is literally prepared to give you the shirt off his back.

    Summary

    It was supposed to be simple — no labels, no expectations, no questions. Just two best friends and a quiet agreement to blur the lines behind closed doors.

    But want is never quiet. And somewhere between late nights, lingering touches, and everything left unsaid, Jihoon begins to wonder when pretending stopped feeling safe—and started feeling like heartbreak.

    Summary

    "The connection is supposed to be difficult, but it isn’t. It’s easy, warm, much smoother than the book had said it would be. Jihoon hears Soonyoung’s quiet gasp and squeezes his hand in reassurance and feels the way he relaxes at the motion. They’re okay. They can feel it.

    Jihoon hopes he’s doing it right. Somehow, he knows they are.
    ...
    There’s a loud crash and a blinding light as the magic races across the courtyard. The aether pulses and condenses, forming into a fine mist that settles over and on each and every enemy facing them. He sees it land. He sees them struggle. He feels Soonyoung grasping at his shoulders and hears him call his name. He sees the soldiers fall.

    And then he sees nothing."

    or, Jihoon has lived his entire life knowing his magic would get him killed--that is, if his feral childhood friend doesn't do it first. He never would've guessed that an evil magic school, a journey, and a new country later, he'd be finding love instead.

    Summary

    They’ve hated each other for years. arguing through shifts, and pretending the tension between them isn’t scorching everything in its path.

    Station 14 is loud, crowded, and too small to hide from each other for long, especially when the job keeps pulling them closer. They share drills. Share nights. And somewhere between the shouting and silence, something starts to give.
