Summary
As China's most popular and most charming young novelist, Zhang Yixing is living the life of his dreams. That is, until his editor and longtime best friend Kris Wu is assigned to Huang Zitao, EXO Entertainment's newest young author—and Yixing's biggest online anti.
Once, when their partnership was still young, Yixing sat down and wrote a list of pros and cons of having Kris as his editor. He's since destroyed the list, more for the sake of Kris' ego than any other reason, but he has it memorized and constantly updated in his head. On the list of pros, in approximate order of importance: his ability to wrangle extensions from their publisher like water from stone, his almost-smothering attention to detail, his willingness to go to bat for even the most half-formed of Yixing's writing whims, his smile, and his collarbones when wearing a v-neck.
On the cons: his almost-smothering attention to detail, especially when it came to Yixing's writing; his inability to let anything go, always acting like a dog worrying its favorite bone; and, underlined twice, his tendency to appear uninvited and unasked for in Yixing's private space.

i don’t go here anymore, but this is more for archiving anyway!
this fic was one of the first fics i read in exo fandom, and i knew instantly it would be incredibly transformative for me because it was writing within a personal cultural experience that i could’ve had, in a fandom space that i could culturally connect to, not to say anything about the story itself! but, even the love story has stuck around with me all these years, and it’s a testament to the author’s writing and love for the characters at the time that it still holds up all these years later.
literally none of these people are even in the band anymore, but i read it again, and it brings me back to the feelings i had a decade-plus ago. chef’s kiss!!!!

Summary
Jungkook’s voice is breathy and accusatory when he answers, “You were mean.”
“I was cruel,” Namjoon contends. “I finish what you start. You want me to win.”

There’s no way to lose a game he practically invented. Use Namjoon’s body as kerosene, remove his teeth and set him aflame first, he doesn’t give a fuck; he’ll play until it burns their world to ashes.

Summary
He'd long known cultists like these existed all over, popping like weeds wherever a Kaiju falls. They're all stringent and devout, frolicking in their deep red costumes and believing that Kaijus are messengers of the gods or whatever.
"Do you believe in God?" The woman with the megaphone asks.
Not sure she's asking the right person.-
Doctor Min is no rookie. Jeon Jungkook just might be one.

Summary
Things he knows for sure certain happened last night: there was a party. Jimin and Taehyung dragged him there to, in their words, find a pretty boy to hook up with and forget his own breakup. Jungkook was skeptical but went anyways, if only for free alcohol. He maybe had one too many drinks along the way. Jimin and Taehyung disappeared at some point. He found a pretty boy. He ended up in an empty room and made out with said pretty boy, who had blue hair and a satin jacket that felt nice under his fingers. He started crying in the middle of making out with the pretty boy. The boy was very confused. The boy told him to lie down and rest.
And that must be how he woke up in said boy’s bed, in his house, hungover and confused.
Jungkook rolls over, buries his face into his pillow, and screams.
