sorry for any spelling/grammar errors.

hj was lost in thought for a moment, suddenly reminded of the ballet that he had missed taking care of the last loose end. how he missed the ballerina perform his masterpiece. he would have to amend that soon. maybe after taking care of Crook.

"let's get on with it."

"he's a loan shark, owes you a lot more money than his clients owe him."

"is he even worth replacing?" hj asked, bored and tired of cleaning up the mess his dissenters had made.

"you wouldn't take any losses. we don't even need the money he owes us. he's a loose canon."+

penny-less lizard. all claims that soon found a bullet through his head and a loyal friend of hj's owning the lavish casino.

"/The Crook/, as most people call him." yh swiped at his tablet, the blue light reflecting in the tinted window divider between them and the front seats.+

"who's next on the list?" hj asked his closest friend and right hand man, yh. they were driving home from a play, a reprieve after removing a sleezy casino owner who gossiped to every ear that would listen about hj's lack of interest in his casino and how he hoarded money like a+

hj was completely enamored. he found himself missing the few hours spent at the theater, missing the hours spent watching such an artist perform.

but he was Lord K1m now. /The Hand/, those who feared him called him thanks to his direct involvement in all matters of the gang.+

not only was he gorgeous, he embodied what it means to become a ballerina. his expression, his flawless movements, his body control... it was like watching air take physical form and use that form to choreograph a masterpiece over a sleeping lake.

he was otherworldly.+

beautiful and majestic.

and somewhere in the cast of raw technique and talent, was /him/.

he was stunning. with so many vying for lead roles in ballet, it was a miracle he snagged most of them.

but hj could easily see why.+

although he enjoyed all dance genres, he had taken a particular interest in ballet recently.

the past three times he had been to the theater was to see a ballet, all equally+

process was slow moving.

in the time between work and handling his insubordinates, hj sought refuge in the one place his world had yet to touch.

the theater.

he loved the arts. plays, musicals, dances, it all calmed the turmoil in his soul. it gave him a glimpse of+

now, two years later, hj was still facing disloyalty and insubordination. he was slowly correcting that problem, but it took time. he needed time to find a worthy successor for those who rebeled, saying he was just a weak boy. even with the help of his inner circle, the+

was stolen from him by a rival gang at the ripe age of 24, he was prepared.

and vengeful.

he hunted down every last member of that gang until only the leader remained. and then, with all the grace of his mother and ruthlessness of his father, killed him in a heartbeat.+

hadn't been enough to keep secret that the renowned Lord K1m had a soft spot for his family.

that hadn't kept hj from being raised to take over one day. he had been through far more and far worse training than any member of his father's syndicate.

so when his family+
January 20, 2026 at 1:57 AM
hj knew he was dealt a lucky hand compared to most people who lived a life like his. his father was distant, but it kept their family safe. his mother was stern, but she raised hj well. his parents had been loving in the privacy of their home.

even their own four walls+

might add more, next thread being hj's rise to power and needing to prove he earned his place among his family's people.

i love myself a good ballet thread/fic, but also a good whump series that explores the ugly parts of ballet and what it does to the mind and body💔❤️‍🩹

and despite how his brain was fogged and his limbs were numb from hours of the same torturous position, thise words stuck with him like they had been branded in his brain by a hot iron.

strenuous his tendons felt like they would snap and his muscles nearly unraveled down to the fibers. a lacky would visit, hissing about The Hand's impatience and demands for what he was due.

Crook would always scoff and wave off the allegedly young, arrogant Hand.+
January 19, 2026 at 4:28 AM
hope it woukd ever end.

but even the loan sharks are owned by someone.

and that someone does not take it well when a debt they are owed is squandered.

sh had only ever heard of The Hand a few times. it was usually when Crook had his entire body bound in poses so+

it would go on for hours, breaking the already bruised ballerina's body. sh knew better than to+
January 19, 2026 at 4:28 AM
but it wasn't just that.

it was the way Crook found pleasure in his suffering. how he dragged sh with a calloused hand to his own lavish apartment to stretch him, quite literally, to his limits.

binding his wrist behind his back and stretching them until his fingers tickled+

instead, he milked sh for every penny he+
