Summary
"I miss you," he says quietly.
The words land soft but heavy, like snow piling on a branch.
Jimin doesn't respond immediately. When Jeongguk looks up, Jimin's expression is open. Vulnerable in a way he rarely allows himself to be.
"I'm right here," Jimin says.
"I know. That's not—" Jeongguk struggles to find the words. "I miss us. The way we used to be. Before everything got so... complicated."
Jimin's throat moves as he swallows. "We're not complicated."
"We're not not complicated."
A ghost of a smile crosses Jimin's face. "That's the most Jeongguk thing you've ever said."
"Is that bad?"
"No." Jimin's voice is soft. "It's just you."
In which Jimin and Jeongguk spend fifteen years orbiting each other until they finally stop running. But the distance between them never quite closes because no matter how many times they drift apart, they always, always find their way back.

Summary
Ilya feels like a zombie; he’s an approximation of something living.
He knows what this is, of course. He isn’t stupid. He was just a child when he watched the life bleed out of his mama, long before she stopped breathing. He watched her sweet smiles grow hollow, and her kind eyes fall blank. He felt her slipping through his fingertips like grains of sand in an hourglass; her time was up before Ilya had truly even realised that it was running out.
When he looks in the mirror, he sees her staring back at him: blond hair, and blue eyes, and an emptiness that kills.

Summary
Ilya knew, right from the very moment he met Shane Hollander, that he would never be good enough for him. He’d seemed so…pristine, when they first met. Untouched. And Ilya knew his unclean hands would only dirty him up. He’s always been selfish, though; his father used to tell him that.
So it’s no surprise, really, that Shane has finally gotten tired of it. Of him, always needing more from Shane than he deserves - always begging for more than he has earned.
Ilya would leave himself, too, if he could.
(Or, five time Ilya thought Shane would leave, and one time he knew he wasn’t going anywhere.)

Summary
"All I want," Shane tells him, voice so low it's barely more than a whisper, "is to grow old and gray with you. You don’t get to take that away from me."
"What if I'm never fixed," Ilya protests. "I stay like that. Don’t get better."
"You will," and his lover makes it sound so simple, the truth of it may as well be woven into the very fabric of the universe. "Your life isn't your own anymore, Rozanov. If you want it back, you'll have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands, do you understand ?"
No, Ilya doesn't. But by God, does he want to.
--
or, Ilya has spent most of his life suffering at the hands of his brother and yeah, sure, that sucks. He won’t pretend otherwise. But it’s also just pain and at the end of the day, Ilya’s used to it. It’s fine. Honestly. All fine. Until one day, Shane introduces him to the somewhat revolutionary concept that it’s really fucking not.Series
