Summary
In-ho has one chance to convince Gi-hun to join him as his right-hand-man, or else the VIPs want him dead. He agrees.
Because In-ho is right. The rebellion didn't work. It was never going to work. The players are simply too far removed from the people really in charge. Even killing the Front Man would only result in a replacement Front Man. But as the Front Man's protégé, Gi-hun can make a difference. He can do what he can for the players from above, rather than below. He can investigate the gold-masked men. He can scheme.
There's light in the darkness. In-ho helps Gi-hun get Ga-yeong back. He teaches him how to fight, how to survive in this deadly world. Slowly, slowly, they begin to trust each other. (The kissing happens long before the trust.)
Gi-hun uses his new power, undreamt of in his old life, to do what he never did before: think only of others. And the luxury helps, the high-end alcohol helps, but of course he's still tortured by guilt. But at least they're tortured together, and take sanctuary in each other. Gi-hun gets to fight in favor of the players; In-ho gets to not be alone. They both got what they wanted.
Begins immediately following the events of S2.

Summary
Chase wakes every morning to the crushing weight of exhaustion, but he refuses to show it. The guilt of what he’s done and what he’s lost clings to him like a shadow, and no amount of sleep can ease the ache in his bones. As the days stretch on, his strength falters, yet he hides behind the mask of a man who can handle everything. After Cameron leaves and the weight of his past actions begins to close in, Chase is determined to hide the toll it’s taking on him. Exhausted, guilt-ridden, and physically falling apart, he refuses to admit that he needs help. But when his health begins to deteriorate, Thirteen sees through his façade and tries to help.
Or: set after Cameron leaves him, chase falls apart mentally and physically and he needs a hot woman to pick him up again. Around 15,000 words, read if you like seeing hot questionably stable blonde men get sick. (don’t read if you don’t like stubborn men, he is in denial)

Summary
Bill Weasley was a reminder of everything Severus Snape loathed—the popular Gryffindor who everybody adored. But instead of contributing to his torture as his predecessors did before him, Bill offers Severus the attention and affection he desperately craved as a child and denies wanting as an adult. Plagued by insecurities and self-loathing for his past treacheries and present deformities, Severus cannot bring himself to refuse the boy’s advances. The boy wears down his defenses through his charm and makes Severus happier than he’s ever been. Underneath Bill’s perfect demeanor, however, is a sea of depravity and possession. Severus finds himself doing anything to keep him, no matter how far it pushes him over the edge.
