Description

While on a voyage with his master, the slave Jinyoung is captured by pirates. The young captain Zico takes him under his wing, sheltering him from any harm without giving any reason for his actions.

Chapter 12: Gyah! Such a tense but then fairly gooey ending. lol XD Yes, I'm grinning and flailing like an idiot. hehe

I was so frustrated with those two in CH 9 when they couldn't seem to understand each other but then Jinyoung got to talk to Corin and things made sense again! Sort of. Though Taeil interrupting their exchange was hilarious! XD Definitely made me smile. I also had to crack up at Zico's attempts to keep himself distracted. He could pretend the other was Ukwon or Minhyuk aye? lol Either way, the ending to CH 9 was perfect. That'll melt anybody, I swear. *shiver* haha

All I have to say is about damn time! XD Gyah! All the feels. And that bet between Taeil and Kyung made me laugh. ^_^ Touche sirs! Damn these twists and mucking up happy scenarios. >.> Sneaky Zico too. Cruel but effective, though I definitely admire Jinyoung's determination and resolve during the everything. I had no idea what the familiar smelling thing was (considering I don't recall ever actually seeing it mentioned prior) but damn! Don't piss him off. haha I was definitely proud of his reaction in confronting the attackers there, though you had me scared when he ran off with the Captain. T_T

Then memory struck and ah hah! *flails some more* Again, you had me on pins and needles with the epilogue and how it started. I was here biting my nails and had to take a huge breath after the fact. O.o Surprise, surprise and somewhat of a pretty pink bow ending but gyah! So good! I very much enjoyed reading this one too my dear! XD

Chapter 9: Oh the series of events going on here! XD I love it that Jinyoung has simply been recruited as another hand at work. hehe The work you described is oddly satisfying too and it was nice to see Corin's treatment of it. As well as his actual role on the ship. I was not expecting it to be entirely voluntary, but that little exchange between him and Taeil on the deck was priceless. hehe I laughed. ;)

Okay! Now I'm dying to know what Jinyoung was trying to finish saying when he mentioned 'Cr...' before he got interrupted. Ack! >.> Beware of outraged anger. T_T Yikes! Though his response was fairly understandable, all things considered. And the humorous bit of poor people skills was well timed comedy.

It cracks me up that Zico tries to be such a hard but those closest to him know it's (generally) all bluster. heh His caring manner shines through even when he's pissed off. lol

Can I just say I'm irritated as crap with Jinyoung too!? Ugh! Naive little... something. lol I don't even know what to call him but that was dumb! As he learned very quickly first hand. *face palm* The cornering scene was chilling for sure but I totally fangirled a bit at the debonair rescue. XD And Zico picking him up like that! Kyah! The ending line too was just plain poetic: "The Captain's heartbeat a lullaby." Loved it!

Uh oh! Snippets of memory and possible recognition? Yes please. :) haha Still laughing over Zico and Taeil's friendship relationship. hehe Friends always see the things we try to deny in ourselves and it's hilarious. Though at the end of CH 7, I was just sitting here like what? lol He finally asked! XD Huzzah!

Beautiful the way you wrote the classic avoidance setup too. heh It took a second to understand Zico's anger but I got the sneaking around part quite easily and it made me chuckle. Thick headed numbskull. >.> Touche with the twist on Kiri too. Was not expecting that, though I was definitely curious since that first...

Chapter 5: Well this has certainly been interesting thus far. I was definitely not expecting the beginning that you had. It felt rather abrupt in its description/detail but it's at least easy to envision. The scenario you set up is very believable, if cruel, and I can well imagine Jinyoung's fate. I was honestly surprised when no one tried him out first even before or after his sale. Likewise, there's no mention of jeering or taunting or generally any of the dehumanization one might expect but I might be looking too hard. lol

The ominous lead him to his new position defining him for seven years was also unexpected but additionally intriguing. Considering this is the first we're hearing of pets (since I don't think they were mentioned in the three main fics), do we get a more in-depth explanation of them later? I'm presuming they act sort of like concubines but with even less freedom, depending on the master. It's a cruel role but I can easily see Jinyoung ending up there. >.>

I do like the dual point of view switch you've got going on as well. Seeing things from Zico's eyes versus from Jinyoung's gives great insight into both people, their thought process, and especially flashbacks and reminiscing to fill in the blanks! They both had lousy childhoods, though it was nice the way that Zico met Kyung. Not the situation they were in exactly but his act of compassion would certainly be enough to engender trust and hope in one so young.

Kudos to him for getting out of that scenario too, especially since he's a very intriguing character. Or at least he's grown into one. A pirate with a potential heart of gold. lol I'm liking this. XD Great job on the mob mentality too when the rest of the crew found the pet. Frightening stuff but spot on. Though why you make Kwon a ?! T_T haha

I find it amusing too how discomfited Zico is by all of Jinyoung's reactions. It really showcases just how different their lives have become despite the similar early years.

Chapter 11: This ending was very sweet. Jinyoung saved Zico's life by calling in Kel. He's so brave. And...KARAM! I loved this story=). Great job!

Chapter 10: Now that things are starting to settle down, you throw more danger in there. I hope they are able to get Zico back safe and sound. And YAY for Jinyoung's bravado!

*On another note, here are some typos I caught...Get (us) up, you lazy

Corin busying himself with (peeing potatoes?LOL) I think you mean PEALING potatoes...

Chapter 11: UNF........so perfect. The last chapter was clever and full of suspense, I didn't think they were going to even get Zico...
I mean I loved how he tricked Jin, I knew it was coming though...poor Jin is pretty useless bless him lmao.
But he was so smart and loyal to the pirates ^^
I feel so proud...like watching a character develop from a scared child into a strong man who fights for his love.
*swoons*

But they rescued him....I just have no words to describe how perfect it is, this ending.
I even like how you tempted us with the 'about to be' scene then just left us hanging lol.
I am going to miss this a lot, and I am going to work hard to keep up to your level unnie <3
nopethankyoubye #9
Chapter 11: :(( gonna miss these two.. Would've loved to read more with them interacting as lovers

But it's a good endin I link it ^^
