Summary
Hongjoong raises his camera again as Seonghwa’s expression slides back into practice, eyes heavy, throat bared. His pretty mouth parts ever so slightly. Hongjoong’s breath stutters. His eyes slide to Seonghwa's bare collarbones, where Hongjoong had just adjusted the delicate fabric of his blouse. But—this is work. They're at work, they're working. Seonghwa's gaze is hot on the lens of the camera—he's working with the theme of the shoot, and he's a professional. And Kim Hongjoong is a professional. And whatever feelings he might have for Park Seonghwa are irrelevant—they have a job to do.

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.
_____
Seonghwa is half harpy in a world that sees nonhuman beings as other and unnatural, trapped in a life of piracy and kept against his will on board a scourge crew. But when the crew of the Horizon comes along and gives him a chance at a different life, he must find a way to settle into a life leagues apart from the one he's always known, try to fit himself into the tightly-knit fabric of the crew, while hiding the truth of himself. Can he while still finally allowing himself to be seen?Specific CW at beginning of each chapter

Summary
Roommates, friends or fuck buddies?
It doesn’t matter to Hongjoong as long as it’s not one word, “boyfriend”. They have the perfect dynamic, or at least that’s how he sees it.
For the last three years he’s successfully been able to keep Seonghwa at arms length, never crossing that threshold into commitment.
But when tragedy strikes and Hongjoong is left the sole guardian of his nephews, things begin to shift. He must now rely on Seonghwa more than he probably ever expected to.
Is he grateful for Seonghwa’s help? Of course. Does it make him see his “not relationship” with Seonghwa a little differently? Maybe, possibly… Does it terrify him? Abso-fucking-lutely.
