In the birds' nest • woosan

[complete] "My little birds deserve only the best" it's with a promise that it starts: a promise of safety against the violence of the world, the hunger, the loneliness and the poverty. Just like a little bird, as long as you stay in The Nest nothing from outside will hurt you and Wooyoung belives it.

But what to do when the most scary monsters come from the inside? Who will protect you then?

"For a moment, San just stood there, watching him. In the dim light, Wooyoung looked peaceful, a stark contrast to the chaotic energy he had been radiating at the club just hours before. But as San gazed at him, a shadow of unease crossed his mind.

San wondered if he was trying to drown out something, bury it under layers of noise and intoxication. It was in the way Wooyoung's smile never quite reached his eyes, the way his laughter sometimes faltered, as though the weight of whatever haunted him was too heavy to ignore, even for a moment.

He didn't know what Wooyoung was running from, but he could feel the darkness lurking beneath the surface, the shadows of whatever had hurt him. San wanted to help, to reach out, but tonight wasn't the time. For now, all he could do was make sure Wooyoung was safe and comfortable."
