Summary
“Tell me, Lamb; do you believe in destiny immutable?”
“It depends,” Laine sat down and crossed their legs, “what do the Fates have in store to me tonight?”
“Only the cards will know,” he set one card down, then one on either side.
The middle card was flipped, Death. Change, transition, transformation.
“Two paths lay before you, Lamb of Fate.”
The card to the left was flipped, Four of Cups reversed. The card to the right, The Lovers reversed. Strange. The Lovers were never reversed for them.
“What’s it mean?”
...
The sun had yet to rise, and Narinder found himself awake. The dark of the room greeted him, coddled him, cradled him, and yet it remained still. He turned to his side where Laine lay beside him. His Lamb, wrapped in blankets that were stolen over the course of the night, nestled just far enough away to not be touching but close enough to reach out.

Summary
Yoon Jeonghan was in the middle of his room. The blond menace, who some people dubbed as Jisoo’s best friend and who, three days ago, had embraced him in the train station, was standing in the center of his childhood bedroom, holding a jar of something that had once been orange but had since turned green.
“You should really throw some of these away,” Jeonghan murmured. His tone wasn’t mocking, nor cruel, but Jisoo felt the words like a jab all the same. “It feels like you’re living in the past.”
“Is there a problem if I am?” He asked, swallowing hard as he felt something in his throat grow. “All the people I love are there.”
In which Jisoo breaks down after hearing the news of his mother’s passing and calls Seokmin after years of silence between them, only to hear the number is no longer in service– he breaks down some more.
