      by Emerlyn — The description was so vivid that one could almost feel the salty smell floating in the dawn air, the damp sea fog, the atmosphere that made bodies droop, and that cold wind said to penetrate to the bone. "But there! The guy standing there was wearing the blue work uniform we don't use anymore! I thought that was strange, so I approached him, and he actually asked me, 'Aren't you Deck Chief Shin?' I said, 'No, I'm Deck Chief Choi. Who are you?' Then he suddenly started mumbling." Haero glanced at the…

      by Emerlyn — Haero volunteered to stand watch instead of the medical officer. He felt he wouldn't be able to sleep at all. Whether his eyes were closed or open, that massive, blurry light lingered in his vision. It was believable enough to be an artificial sun or moon in the sky. Perhaps the fear he felt at that time made it seem larger and brighter. Haero thought he wouldn't be able to forget that light for quite some time. If he had been on a lost ship, could he have resisted being drawn to that light? If he…

      by Emerlyn — "Hah, ha, h-hyung. Yes, there... That's good. Ah! Harder, harder..."  "Haah, Haero likes it here... Doesn't it hurt?"  "It hurts, but! I-I like it... Ah, I feel like I'm dying... hnng."  "Then we shouldn't..."  "No, ah! Th-that's what I like. Haah!" Haero scratched down Yoon Moo-hwa's spine as he tilted his head back. Yoon Moo-hwa cupped Haero's head to prevent it from hitting anything as he thrust upward. With no patience to make it to the bed, he had Haero leaning…

      by Emerlyn — The boiler room storage was very warm. Haero and Yoon Moo-hwa sat facing each other with their legs raised and crossed, sharing a palm-sized container of jelly pudding. Though such sweet things weren't to his taste, Yoon Moo-hwa willingly accepted the spoonful that Haero offered like a mother bird, finding it cute how much Haero wanted him to eat it. "But why here?" The boiler room that Yoon Moo-hwa had summoned him to after duty hours was literally steaming with heat. Haero had loosened his activity…

      by Emerlyn — In the quiet medical bay, the chief medical officer suddenly pushed his chair and approached Haero quickly. "You were on deck with the Captain yesterday."  Haero flinched at the direct question from the chief medical officer, who was old enough to be his father. "Only I saw it. Probably. Still, you should be careful."  "..."  Haero's face turned bright red as he immediately recognized that though the tone was playful, it was serious advice. In truth, the chief medical officer was…

      by Emerlyn — The sailors who had stepped aside against the wall until their superior, Yoon Moo-hwa, passed by, slowly followed him with their eyes after he went by. Number 8 hesitated at the pouring gazes, and Yoon Moo-hwa, noticing that small reaction, turned around. Number 8's body was lifted again into his outstretched arms. It was already strange to see 'that' Yoon Moo-hwa holding a child, but the sight of a dirty child, clearly from a pirate island, speaking informally to Yoon Moo-hwa was even more…

      by Emerlyn — "Quit." He was the superior officer. He had grown used to that by now, and it wasn't as if he had entered this place unprepared. Yet, the abrupt strangeness of the situation felt like a bucket of cold water being dumped over his head. "Quit school." It comes naturally to him, as if he was born to give orders. Perhaps he feels more comfortable with people who obey his commands. But his fingertips and toes have gone cold. His shoulders ached as if they were being pierced. "W-why?" Even…
