    Summary

    But...he looked upon others with envy. At the carefree betas that didn’t have to worry about wearing collars, or the copious rules that dictated his very existence, or the heats he’d have to go through when he reached maturity at 16. He envied the alphas, too. He envied Sizhui.

    He wanted passerbys to look upon him with the proudness they did when Sizhui walked by; head held high and strong. Jingyi knew that no matter how high he had his head, or how tall he stood, they'd still look down on him.

    Alphas don’t get stared at because of their sweet scent or because of the cultivator robes that many didn’t believe belonged on Jingyi’s body.

    They never felt sticky and ashamed when people ogled them, like Jingyi did.

    Jingyi desperately wanted to know what life was like without the collar. Without the telling scent. A day without judgement.

    A day without conforming to being an omega.

    Or, with typical teenage identity issues, secondary gender issues, and societal problems, Jingyi grows and discovers

    Summary

    “Congratulations,” Heeseung says abruptly, and Sunghoon startles. He looks over, slightly alarmed, to see Heeseung blinking innocently at him. “On getting first,” he clarifies, smiling as though he doesn’t care either way.

    Sunghoon grins in response, a good bit more cheekily than Heeseung. “Thanks,” he chirps, but his eyes narrow slightly. He’s sensing Heeseung isn't finished speaking just yet.

    “Won’t happen again,” Heeseung continues in the same cheery tone of voice.

    It takes him a moment to process this, and then—

    Oh. Oh.

    (Or: Instantly popular and yet seemingly standoffish new kid Heeseung's proving a bit much for his seat partner Sunghoon to handle, said new kid is just trying to get through his long overdue senior year in peace without any of his younger counterparts harassing him, and the universe always has another trick up its sleeve.)

    Summary

    Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 4. 786 & 825 ff (trans. Rieu) (Greek epic C3rd B.C.) :

    "'...Do not let my friends be so unwary as to fall into Charybdis, or at one gulp she will swallow them all. Nor let them go too near the hateful den of Ausonian Scylla, the wicked monster borne to Phorkys by nigh-wandering Hecate, whom men call Crataeis—or she may swoop down, take her pick and destroy them in her terrible jaws. What you must do is so to guide the ship that they escape disaster, if only by a hair's breadth.’"

    A story of seven boys, just trying to find their way home.
