Summary
Jisung’s lips stretch kindly around his next words; these words that yank at Minho’s core and quietly request the truth, “You’ve gone so soft on me. It makes me wonder where this Minho has been hiding the whole time.”
This Minho comes from long-sleeves in torrid weather, from sidelong glances to burn the shape of Jisung’s profile into perfect recollection. Heart-shaped smiles framing that one crooked tooth. Hours spent lazing on the bench and strolling down the busy city streets of food markets. Bruises from hands that should heal them, fear flickering in pretty doe eyes at the thought of going back home, and a bed that feels too big now. This Minho comes from the deepest, most terrifying pit in Minho’s heart.
…
Minho doesn’t fall in love.
Red fabric, rouged lips, ruby scrapes. Blue skylines, bubbling riverfronts, broken-hearted homes. All coming together to paint Minho’s world in purple bruises and pink feelings.
Minho doesn’t fall in love. Until he absolutely does.

Summary
Seonghwa always knew that his life was going to be hard. It was as plain for him to see as his own hands in front of him, but he wanted to try to live his life looking towards the sun.
His uncle made that hard. Whenever the stress of life became too much for him, his uncle would berate Seonghwa over it, blaming it on his father for bringing his mother into their lives, on him being too much like his mother. It always came back to his mother.
Because Seonghwa’s mother was a harpy.
When he was 12, his uncle had a debt to a pirate captain from a job that went very poorly because of him.
And Seonghwa was how he settled that debt. Seonghwa, to spare his uncle.

There are three simple rules in Seonghwa (and Hongjoong!!!!)’s apartment:
1. Take off your shoes indoors (“We’re not wolves around here, Hongjoong. We don’t frolic in the mud.”)
2. Do your chores; everyone has their share in this house
3. Do not—under any circumstances!—touch Seonghwa’s wine collection (triple exclamation marks)

Summary
Minho has just finished watching Jisung paint a sky blue feature wall in their bedroom when he blurts out, “Okay, I’m ready to get married. You can propose to me now.”
The simultaneous clatter of the paint roller on the ground and Jisung’s mouth gaping open sends Minho into a fit of laughter. A splatter of paint on Jisung’s cheek and the oversized paint shirt hanging limp off his frame only make Minho fonder. He rises from the stool he’s been sitting on to watch Jisung paint (re: watch him workout his arms) and crosses the room to him, waiting for Jisung to regain his speech whilst wiping the paint from his face.
“I- what- now?” Jisung finally sputters, gazing up at Minho with terrified eyes.
“No, not now, pabo. You have to get me a ring first.”
“I’m proposing to you?” Jisung asks, incredulous. Even in his alarmed state, his arms still snake around Minho’s waist to keep him close. “You’re the hyung!”
--
alternatively, Lee Minho is desperate to get a ring on his finger and Han Jisung is taking too long.
