《Seventeen One-Shots》(3) %Wonwoo% REVISED
Advertisement
Your dad dragged you to a cookout his boss was doing to celebrate the start of summer. You pouted the entire way there. "(Y/N)...When we get there at least pretend to be happy." "No promises." You said, yawning a little. You stayed up late watching movies last night and was hoping you being tired would keep your dad from dragging you to a place full of adults and water cooler talk and little kids running around everywhere. "Why don't you wanna be here? You love my boss's cooking." "I don't wanna be the only teenager there...your co-workers don't take me seriously so I can't talk to them and I don't wanna hang out with a bunch of snot nosed brats." "Oh...did I forget to tell you...we have a new guy at the office...great guy...real hard worker... He has two sons around your age...Wonwoo and Bohyuk..." Your dad smiled. "Great..." You still didn't want to go. Whenever your dad said someone was around your age that normally meant they were like 13.
You and your father arrived at the cookout and were immediately greeted by his boss. Your dad's boss was evil...absolutely evil. He treated you like a 4 year old. He greeted you in a baby voice and pinched your cheek. "You sure have grown up since the last time I had a cook out. What grade are you in now?" "...I'm out of school..." You said through your teeth.
You left your dad and his boss to sit under a tree and hopefully take a nap. Just as you were about to fall asleep, you heard your dad yell your name. You sat up and pouted as your dad approached you with a co-worker and 2 younger looking boys. "(y/n)...This is the new guy I was telling you about...and his two sons." You stood up and bowed to them. "Dad...can I talk to you real quick...in private?" You asked your father, pulling him away. "How old are they?" You asked seriously. "Around your age...I told you already." "Dad...when you say around my age...that means they're 13...those are grown men...they didn't even look human." "What's that supposed to mean?" "It means they are gorgeous. I can't stay here any longer. We have to leave." You said in a more than serious tone. "If you want...You can hang out in my boss's house and watch movies like the little hermit crab you are." Your father joked. "That sounds very peaceful."

Your dad's boss showed you to his extensive collection of movies and explained how to work his TV remote.
You plopped onto the couch and started watching Zombieland.
Right at the part where Bill Murray is sneaking up on Jesse Eisenburg, you heard footsteps. You jumped and threw a pillow at whoever was sneaking up on you. You looked and there stood one of that new guy's kids. "Is that how you say hello?" He laughed, quoting the movie. "Sorry...Wonwoo right?" You asked, sitting back down. "Yeah...(y/n) right?" "Yeah...did you get tired of all the old people too?" "Yeah...they all wouldn't talking about how mature I look...Like hello...I'm out of school...of course I look mature." "Your voice is deep as hell." You thought while listening to him. "I know what you mean. They all treat me like a baby." "Adults are the worst."
The two of you clicked immediately. Yall liked the same movies, listened to the same music, read the same books and had very similar opinions about being forced to go places. By the end of the cookout, yall had watched every zombie movie available to yall and had each become part of the couches yall were sprawled across.
Yall's dads walked in and said it was time to leave. "I don't wanna move." You both groaned. "Sloths...both of you are sloths." Your dad shook his head. "Hey Wonwoo...did you hear about how the one armed hillbilly who fell out of the tree?" "No...how'd that happen?" "Someone waved to him and he waved back." You laughed. Wonwoo laughed loudly at your joked. Even his laugh was deep and totally dreamy.
"I think our kids were meant for each other." Your dad's friend said. "I got a good one...Never mind... I was gonna say a chemistry joke but I know I wouldn't get a reaction." He smiled at you and snorted. "Kids...it's time to go." Your dad said with a straight face, unamused by your puns.

You and Wonwoo slowly got up and stretched. "I had fun (y/n)...We should do this again." He smiled at you. "Sounds like a plan..." You said shyly. Wonwoo handed you a slip of paper with his phone number on it. "Call me sometime." He smirked, leaving you craving more of his voice and amazing taste in puns and movies.
Tomorrow was supposed to be my first day of Senior year but due to the hurricane and flooding, it's canceled.
So far Monday is the only day canceled but they'll probably cancel the whole week.

The Harrowbird's Crown
(Formerly: Tales of a Harrowed House) Synopsis: This is the tale of an exiled royal family who, after their bloody reunion on the island of Providence, return to a war-torn homeland where once more, powerful forces pit sibling against sibling in a bid for the crown — and once more, the magical streets of Auctor echo their infamous motto: “Fire will Reign as Harrowbirds Soar!” From his humble beginnings as a shoemaker’s son, his year spent as a daringly brazen orphan caught between rivaling Houses and a mad ghost, and his fight for the crown after his return to Auctor, Corbyn faces a coming-of-age story unlike any before him as he discovers magic and birthright are two things he never knew he had. From the intimate narrative of a childhood that was never her own, her year spent struggling to find the person she is rather than the person her family needs her to be, the secrets she hides, and the truths she finds, Halle discovers herself on the fabled island of Providence as her House collapses around her, bids to enter a legendary school of magic in her homeland of Auctor, and fights for a crown she never knew she wanted. A high-action, character-focused story written with a poet’s styling, The Harrowbird’s Crown is a tale that will transport readers into the conflict and conquest of a royal family back on the rise. General Information: This story is more traditionally plotted. While the beginning may seem to start out slowly, when shit hits the fan: the action is constant, the mysteries are satisfying, and the character development is rewarding. Chapters are usually between 2.5-3.5 thousand words (though some, like the first and second chapters, can run up to 5k words). When it’s long it means that the chapter will just have that much content in it. There’s Action, Mystery, Fantasy, Comedy, and some Psychological undertakings. Romance hasn’t come up yet, but it may in future chapters. I try to have chapters out every Sunday at 7:00 CST Book One: The Ghost of Providence

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
