Summary
“If I love baking?” Hongjoong echoes. “Baking?! No. Not at all. But I heard it can be relaxing, right? Right?”
A staff member coughs into their hands while the others pointedly look away from him. Hongjoong’s smile hardens into a grimace.
Oh, dear god salvage his soul.

Summary
Seonghwa cups his hand out in an attempt to catch a snowflake but it proves to be quite difficult with Hongjoong standing in front of him and limiting his movement. While Seonghwa maneuvers his hand around, eyes wide with astonishment and lips stretched out in a small smile, Hongjoong keeps his gaze fixed on his friend.
“Star,” Hongjoong calls out to him as Seonghwa cries out triumphantly, “I caught one!”
Seonghwa excitedly holds his hand out to Hongjoong, “look!”
But Hongjoong would prefer to look at him.
--
Hongjoong has never been good with feelings or expressing himself; he's only ever wanted to convey it through music. So when he makes an unexpected friend in his repeat desk mate, proper and polite Park Seonghwa, he doesn't think the friendship will last.
Until it flourishes into something beyond his understanding and Hongjoong is faced with coming to terms with his feelings, working up the courage to confess, and then has to deal with the many oddballs life throws his way.

Summary
“Smell and emotion are stored as one memory.”
Smells are handled by the olfactory bulb, the structure in the front of the brain that sends information to the other areas of the body’s central command for further processing. Odors take a direct route to the limbic system, including the amygdala and the hippocampus, the regions related to emotion and memory.
- Harvard Gazette, 2020Hongjoong remembers their life together as a collection of smells.
Inspired by Why do You Love" - Hongjoong looks back on the relationship with Seonghwa through glimpses in time, wondering what went wrong and how he can fix it.

Summary
“You’re not actually nervous, are you?” Hongjoong asks. “You’ve done makeup in worse conditions. Remember the car ride to Incheon? No staff, zero lighting, potholes every five seconds.”
“That was survival,” Seonghwa replies without looking away from the mirror. “This is presentation.”
Hongjoong raises a brow. “Presentation?”
Seonghwa dips a finger into a pot of shimmer and gently taps it to the corner of his eye. “You made something for me. I want to do it justice.”
Hongjoong’s offer to design something custom for Seonghwa slowly unravels the threads holding their friendship in place.
