Danse Macabre
Description
Kim Jongin's alias is Kai, but he likes to be known as a "psychopathic serial killer." Xiumin's real name is Minseok, but everyone just calls him "the Emperor's new pet."
Kai knew what he was killing for, until he met Kyungsoo. Xiumin didn't know what he was fighting for, until he met Luhan.
Two people, so different and yet, the ending is all the same.
Warnings: swearing, , non-con, torture, a lot of angst, major character death.
note: this is not a love story
It might be a little confusing, because there are two different plotlines going on at the same time and are all connected:
|
Pleasure and Power: mafia!au Main ship: KaiSoo, TaoHun Side: Taohun+Candy, SeKaiChen, SuChen note: much fluff (compared to the other one) |
Pain and Power: fantasy!au Main ship: XiuHan Side: XiuHo, LayHan, FanXing note: such angst |
Foreword
COMMENTS INCLUDE SPOILERS. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
Danse Macabre
An artistic genre of late-medieval allegory on the universality of death. They were produced to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life.
Love
It's the feeling of needing someone and only needing that someone. With that person, nothing else matters. Without that person, nothing matters.
It is being willing to die for someone.
It makes people delusional. When you're in love enough- when you're madly in love- you don't care about anything else. The feeling that the person gives you blinds you to everything- to their faults, to the warning signals, to the consequences.
For people like us, love makes us weak, makes us afraid.
Hate can come from love. But can love come from hate?
Disclaimer: This story was inspired/influeced by Greek and Chinese mythology, The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson, the amazing xiuhan fic The Devil's Paramour by trinkdufreak and the amazing taohun fic Metal by Tao-Be-Mine. Any similarities to other pieces of writing are purely coincidental.
I do not own any of the idols, but the writing and plot is entirely mine and if you plagiarize, I will hunt you down.
