- i don’t sting (i bite)
- summary:
- it’s not a pleasant set-up, but it seems to work, and he has to admit, there's an awful lot of novelty in getting paid to essentially, ignore someone.
- would it have been nice if him and jihoon got along? sure. but seungcheol’s never been an idealist, and he’s worked in the hospitality industry long enough to know that for every friendly guest you have, you’re going to get just a many obnoxious dickheads.
- it’s just his shitty luck that his first guest happens to be jihoon.

- ask no questions (and i'll tell you no lies)
- summary:
- jihoon has no idea what he should be doing here.
- if the bureau has a standard operating procedure in place, to direct him on what to do in the extremely unlikely event he crash lands on a deserted island with a highly dangerous criminal, he’s never read it. other than sit tight and wait for rescue (and keep an eye on seungcheol in case he somehow succeeds in building a raft and rowing away) he’s at a loss.
- it certainly doesn’t help that seungcheol doesn’t see himself as a prisoner, and thus fails to subscribe to any of the typical prisoner behaviours one would expect. sure, he might fashion himself a wicked looking knife out of scrap metal and leather, spend an hour sharpening it while he stares menacingly into the middle distance, but then he’ll go use that knife to make jihoon a parasol out of palm tree fronds and insist he sit under it because—
- “no offence, but you’re paler than a daikon radish. until we get our hands on some sun block, you need to stay in the shade. in fact, here, take my shirt.”
- it seems stupid to stay on your toes around a guy who is literally prepared to give you the shirt off his back.

- take me to bed or lose me forever
- summary:
- he’s on his second plate of bacon and eggs, when someone clears their throat politely and says, “do you mind if i join you?” and he glances up to find the talented mr ripley himself, lee fucking jihoon, hovering awkwardly a foot away.
- he’s dressed fucking impeccably for breakfast at a ski resort—fitted slacks, shiny loafers, and a soft looking, sleek grey turtleneck jumper that does wonderfully flattering things for his figure.
- seungcheol raises an eyebrow, suspiciously intrigued. he can’t for the life of him figure out what jihoon wants to talk to him about, but in the interests of at least attempting to be civil, he reaches one foot out under the table to push a chair back.
- “sure, why the hell not. we are boyfriends after all. unless that is… the status of our relationship has changed dramatically since last night. tell me, are we engaged now? newlyweds, perhaps? oh, how the time flies. it feels like we met...just yesterday.”
