OHH kings without crowns?? 👀

Hiii!!! "kings without crowns" is a short little joongdok piece set during the scenarios; it's based off a fanciful little notion I had about kdj and yjh having a late-night discussion about leadership!! An excerpt for you:

“How do you manage it?” Kim Dokja asks, once again interrupting Yoo Joonghyuk’s distracted wonderings. He doesn’t sound desperate, or even particularly harried, but there’s a peculiar quality to his eyes, a dull sheen like that of an old coin. Yoo Joonghyuk blinks, taken aback. In their ruined world, there’s a lot of it at any given moment, and Yoo Joonghyuk, historically, can’t be said to be especially good at dealing with the parts that don’t involve swinging a sword. He can’t imagine that Kim Dokja, with his uncanny intuition and careless charisma, is asking him for leadership tips.
