               ❝ sejin’s coming to stay next week, ❞ rohoon says, leaning back in his chair as he glances over his shoulder at the other male. he hasn’t told sejin about eric. he hasn’t told any of his family about eric -- he’s always been secretive about his personal life, and that isn’t about to change now. ❝ he usually falls asleep on the couch downstairs, so you can stay over if you want. it just depends whether you want to meet him. ❞

Minjae was a lot of things, and most of them were TOO MUCH ™ for the random person. It wasn’t that he didn’t like Arcadia (on the contrary, he found the chatter endearing), but he was honestly confused. Most people didn’t stick around after the booze was gone; they disappeared, only to reappear the next time he sent out a blast saying he was having another party. It was unusual for someone just to hang around, to converse with him, and that sense of oddness was what led to the improperly blurted words.

“No! I…no that’s not what I meant. Most people just, uh, they don’t stick around after the party – at least not to talk to me. I guess they’re afraid I’ll make them help me clean.” No, he knew better. It was because all his relationships were shallow, fleeting – like they had been his entire life. “I like that you’re here. I just…I don’t know why you’d want to be. You’re not bothering me.” He gave a short bark of laughter, then shook his head. “I’m usually the one bothering people.”

               having a ghost girlfriend is cool as fuck, yuuya can't deny that. but it has its drawbacks, like not being able to touch each other. yuuya's never exactly been a touchy feely person, but being told that he physically can't hug his girlfriend? that just makes him want to do it even more. amongst other things... instead he's having to rely on his hand for that. which is exactly what he's doing when haewon decides to appear unannounced in the middle of his room. ❝ jesus fucking christ, ❞ he blurts out as he jolts upright, a simultaneous attempt to hide his cock from her ( and by extension, what he's been doing with it ) and a shock response so violent he's pretty sure he's pulled something. ❝ warn a guy next time, huh? ❞

               joowon knows it's against regulations to identify as an alien to the native species of whatever planet is being investigated. earth, though, is different to the other planets his race has invaded, because humans are so assured of the fact they are the only sentient species in the entire cosmos that, should he choose to divulge his nature to one, anyone they dared to tell would never believe them. joowon looks, sounds, and acts human, and there’s no way of forcing him to phase back into his true form ( if there ever was, the ancestors of his species have done their best to hide that knowledge from the rest of the universe ). but when he sits and listens to the things that caspar both says and thinks, it’s curiosity that guides his actions. curiosity that culminates in him interrupting the other’s train a thought with a much too casual, ❝ you do realise i’m an alien, right? ❞

I wonder how long it will be til my sweet words meet your beautiful eyes again,

I question if it will even come as a surprise to you — oh, how I fantasize that day...

There is no escaping your Love, our love; the love there is a theme,

For I’ve been seeing you in each and all of my dreams.

Your voice whispers to me clearly,

Psalms of healing, I’m sullenly weeping...

I would recognize you even if I were blind.

You warm touch and encapsulating Love give you away.
