Minghao + Ocean Vuong
The most beautiful part of your body
is where it's headed. & remember,
loneliness is still time spent
with the world.

Hoshi/Anyone; "Beauty is terror"
Thinking about these two quotes together and the idea of on/off-stage personas:
"Beauty is terror. Whatever we call beautiful we tremble before it. And what could be more terrifying or beautiful, to the Greeks to to our own, than to lose control completely?" - Donna Tartt, the Secret Histories
"I am calm in everyday life but when I put on my in-ear device and step on stage, I can feel the tension and hear the cheers getting louder as the music gets louder. When the staff tells me it's time to step on stage, I feel something boil inside me. I feel it steaming inside and I think I have to give a burst of something, spill what is inside me." - Hoshi in Hit the Road Ep. 04
Any ship; "It's been so many years"
Hello, hello there, is this Martha?
This is old Tom Frost
And I am calling long distance
Don't worry 'bout the cost.
'Cause it's been forty years or more
Now Martha please recall
Meet me out for coffee
Where we'll talk about it all.
Tom Watts - Martha

Light came in a blinding cascade. It receded in acknowledgement of Soonyoung's presence, revealing a snowy mountaintop. Something flickered in the distance. Soonyoung blinked. The cold bit into his eyelids as the scenery morphed.
In a ghostly lit cavern, a young was man tending to the hearth. His fingers danced and the flames followed.
Generations before Soonyoung's time, the Council received a prophecy from the Saints: a child of darkness will swallow the world whole. Within a year, the First Army had wiped out every shadow summoner and their family.
True darkness, Soonyoung often thought, is the one residing in man's heart.
Wonwoo's light-summoning ability came as a surprise to everyone but Soonyoung, who had been close enough to notice the golden specks in his irises. He had felt the heat of the sun trapped under his skin and tasted the power in Wonwoo's tongue.
If only he knew, why he was helplessly drawn; moth to a flame. If only he knew—
Shadows crawled on the walls, following the command Soonyoung's heart spoke. Wonwoo turned away from the fire. Their gazes met. He said nothing, but he never needed to say anything. The connection between them allowed Soonyoung into his mind.
Stay where you are. I will come to you.
"Wonwoo," he called out, before the darkness caved in on them.
"What is it?" He opened his eyes, staring at Soonyoung from his own crib. Soonyoung would have apologised for waking him up, but one look at Wonwoo and he knew he hadn't been sleeping.
"This time tomorrow…"
"This time tomorrow," Wonwoo interrupted, voice rough with exhaustion and stubborn determination, "we'd be here again. Bruised and battered, but here again."
Eleven others received the same assignment. Seungcheol was snoring to kingdom come on the bed above Soonyoung, Seokmin grinning in his sleep on the one to his left. Jeonghan, as always, was nowhere to be found—their unit's impending death had likely worsened his insomnia.
After all, they were being deployed to the frontline at 0600 hours. The probability of all of them surviving past midday was slimmer than none.
"The world is going to end, Wonwoo-yah," Soonyoung answered. "Wouldn't it be cruel not to kiss me at least once before it does?"
Ever since the Mimics arrived, the world had been incessantly loud with the screams of metal and man alike. Wonwoo's thoughtful silence had become a comfort amidst the noise, but now Soonyoung feared it. He closed his eyes and steeled himself for rejection.
"Soonyoung-ah." Wonwoo's bed creaked. "I'm coming over there, okay?"
The world went off-kilter when Soonyoung rushed to meet him halfway.
"Be careful." The owner of the voice steadied Soonyoung by the waist. His touch seared through Soonyoung's thin gossamer shirt. The flowers in the shirt's appliqué bloomed under his fingers. Soonyoung's entire body crackled with desire.
"Is that a gun," Soonyoung drawled breathily, leaning back against the breadth of Wonwoo's chest, "or are you just that happy to see me, Inspector Jeon?"
He set his lips to the hollow behind Soonyoung's ear. "Both, Hoshi-ssi." His dangling earring swayed from the gust of Wonwoo's breath. "Or should I say, Kwon Soonyoung-ssi?"
No one had managed to discover his identity before. Hoshi was given on his calling card, placed elegantly above the white spiderweb spun on black cotton fibre, but Kwon Soonyoung was only known to those worthy of his name. As a thief, Soonyoung knew most about worth.
"I knew you'd find me," he sighed, pleased. Wonwoo's hand slid down to his hip. "Finally, the department assigned someone mildly competent to lead the hunt."
"Mildly competent?" asked Wonwoo, haughty.
"You haven't caught me, yet."
But I have caught you, Soonyoung thought giddily. He'd spent years scouring the world for exquisite artefacts to add to his collection, and Jeon Wonwoo would make the perfect centrepiece. He turned around, wanting to admire his beauty properly.
The inspector's soft lips brushed against his cheek.
"Oi, what the fuck," Soonyoung protested, pushing Wonwoo away.
"What?" Wonwoo blinked innocently. "You said to bite you."
"Yeah, but be sexier about it!"
"Be sexier?"
"The neck, Wonwoo," he sighed exasperatedly, bringing his index and middle finger together to tap at his pulse point. "The neck. Where the blood is?"
Wonwoo touched Soonyoung's cheek, the one he'd just playfully gnawed on moments ago. Heat gathered under his icy touch.
"From the looks of you," his gaze roamed appreciatively over Soonyoung's features, "I'd say my aim was impeccable."
Soonyoung rolled his eyes. It was his fault for still blushing like a maiden around Wonwoo. The mood was destroyed, but he suspected Wonwoo hadn't wanted to feed in the first place and was merely indulging him, so Soonyoung gave up trying to build it back up again.
"No dinner for you, then," he grumbled. "Come to bed, now. I guess we're turning in without foreplay like an old married couple."
Which, to Wonwoo's defence, they were.
"Okay," Wonwoo said happily.
When Wonwoo joined him under the sheets, his hand came to rest just to the left of Soonyoung's sternum. He murmured something in an ancient tongue, but Soonyoung knew a spell when he heard one. His ears recognised the protection Wonwoo cast over his heart—a possession of his in more ways than one.
He startled awake with a gasp.
"Go back to sleep." Wonwoo's deep timbre tamed Soonyoung's stuttering pulse. "It's not even six yet."
"I just had the most vivid series of dreams," he whispered, adjusting his eyes to the cool lighting of the bedroom.
Wonwoo could have easily gone back to sleep, but even with his consciousness ebbing and flowing, his inquisitiveness prevailed.
"Was I there?"
"Yeah."
“A series of dreams, you say?” Soonyoung hummed in response, gliding his hand up Wonwoo’s toned back. “How many did I star in?”
The answer was going to give Wonwoo’s ego the most pleasant stroke, but Soonyoung always got a stomachache after lying to him. It was already churning from the thought alone.
“All of them.”
"So, I'm the man of your dreams. Cool," he mumbled into the crook of Soonyoung's neck, sounding all too pleased with himself. “Tell me more about it at noon.”
Soonyoung snorted. What did he expect?
"Ass." He carded his fingers through Wonwoo's messy locks. "Well, I'm awake now. Might as well go practice."
"Right now?" Wonwoo asked, incredulous. Like Soonyoung hadn't done this countless times before. Like he wasn't going to accompany him and fall asleep in the corner, cap pulled down over his face. "Okay. Be careful on your way out, Mingyu's grumpy when you wake him up too early."
Soonyoung leaned in to kiss his boyfriend goodbye, swiping his tongue along the seam of his lips. An arm's reach was the most separation Wonwoo could bear before he said,
"Wait, I'll come with you."
