Summary
The glass door opened and the light shone on this new customer, basking him in warmth. His gaze wandered across the entire space, floating around each sparkling item with slightly parted lips. The cold caught in his throat made his breath visible as he exhaled.
"Hello," he greeted, wiping his shoes on the mat. The sound traveled across the spacious store—it rang like a greeting bell; melodic, honeyed, songlike.
Changbin nearly leapt from behind the counter.
(or: a repeated encounter at Changbin's job leads him to question the definition of a work crush and what brings people together during the holidays.)

Summary
A notification chirped out of Seungmin's phone.
Changbin had sent a mirror selfie from his bathroom, standing right under the gleaming white lights, in his sportswear—faint smile on display. The sink he was pressing his weight against was covering his lower body, and his black cap was casting a shadow over his eyes and forehead.
Changbin sending that image on a random evening and continuing the conversation over text meant something… Seungmin wanted to find out, despite his drowsiness. Despite knowing he was about to lose some much needed sleep.
(or: Seungmin wants to rest after a long day; Changbin sends him a selfie. And another selfie. And another.)

Summary
Seungmin's phone lit up—the clock read 01:52 a.m.
The faint blue light emitting from the screen couldn't compare to the lights of the tunnel he was standing under.
Its walls arched above Seungmin, colossal and immense. He felt small in the presence of such a monumental build—an awe-inspiring feeling. One that sat heavy within him and deepened his breaths.
He had to call Changbin.
(or: Seungmin learns that thoughts kept and hidden within us are lifeless, and it's up to us to breathe life into them. He finds the strength to undo his mistakes and reconnect with his best friend.)

Summary
Rumor has it, Kim Seungmin is a virgin.
He’s buttoned up, pink cheeked, with a boy next door smile and a face to write home to a mother about. Plenty of people have tried to date Kim Seungmin, but no one has succeeded. Many people have tried to sleep with Kim Seungmin, but no one has succeeded.
At least that’s what the rumors say.
Changbin’s always hated that shit anyway. He doesn’t care if Seungmin is a virgin or not, he just really wants to fuck him. He’s classy like that. A man of the people.
(OR: Changbin’s friends bet him he won’t be able to get campus sweetheart, Kim Seungmin, to put out.)

my first seungbin bookmark! i loved it a lot, it's really concise, charming, and so fun(ny)! the text segments were my favorite part, i wish there were more, but that would be really selfish of me, because the amount was spot on and everything flowed really nicely. the smut was short 'n' sweet 'n' nice, there was a lot of tenderness and praise, so i'm really pleased with it ^^ i was so charmed by the rest of the fic & the premise/prompt—which is why i'm bookmarking it! had a lot of fun with the 'twink in khakis' lines, i'm going to start living by that philosophy from now on, tbf!

Summary
Heart rabbiting, Minho peels his hoodie away from his chest and peers down, because surely he forgot to take the alpha’s shirt off this morning, and that’s what he’s smelling—but he has no such luck.
He’s going crazy. He must be. He’s imagined smells before, the most random things at random times, but he’s never sensed them this vividly, like he could reach out and touch the alpha, taste the chocolate and orange all the way on the back of his tongue—
Minho chuckles quietly to himself, humorless, maniacal. This is simply not happening.
(or: The anonymous alpha whose clothes Minho has been buying for months ends up in his class; Jisung can't figure out how his new project partner could be so sour, yet so sweet.)

aaaaaaaa!!! i finally finished it aaaa!!! i'm so happy, this was fucking *unreal*!! after i spent a week well-satiated with this fic (yes, i apparently stretched out its estimated read time *that* much...) i read the last ten paragraphs early in the morning and now i'm so ready to start my day >:-) holy shit, if i ever say dawnshine isn't my favorite minsung writer, gun me down. that is not me. dawnshine, you're a fucking titan! i was convinced at so many points of the story that they wanted to kill me, because *fuck*. there were so many parts that hurt and stung, but the resolution of them felt so natural and deserved, so sweet (pun unintended) and domestic; so sincere and genuine. the smut—superb! i felt *enlightened*, it was so fucking hot! the storyline and character development—even better! the progression of minsung's relationship—the best fucking part! i was so endeared by the other skz members' roles in this. i love this story, it's so grand and authentic, and i really appreciate all dawnshine's struggles along the way to finish it! ♡ i feel so privileged to be reading it months after it's been completed. highly recommend! :)c

Summary
"Uh. I was going to say – those cookies, they’re. Um. We make those ones a bit differently.”
Changbin raises a brow. “They’re vegan or something?”
The woman’s face becomes more and more worried by the minute. Apprehensive. She’s watching Seungmin with almost an apology in her eyes. “Um. Not quite.”
Seungmin makes a poor decision. Changbin helps him through it.

i? just realized?? i haven't bookmarked this??? on my *third* reread??? i'm insane about this fic, i swear to fucking god. it's so good! it's fun, it's really hot, and it's the first time i've read this trope! great execution that makes me wanna come back and reread it every so often—like i just did! omg, i also realized so many things (dynamic-wise, certain phrases, dialogue, and descriptions) got stuck in my subconscious when i first read it, so i was actually really embarrassed seeing so many phrases that i integrated unintentionally into my own writing...? just proves how much i love this fic! it's also paced exceptionally well!

Summary
“Changbin,” Seungmin cries, his voice breaking on the word. He’s naked except for a pair of black boxers, soaked and stuck to his skin. His entire body is glistening from a sheen of sweat, flushed pink from the apples of his cheeks to his chest. His face is wet with tears, his lashes sticking to his skin as he thrashes his head around and shoves it into his pillow. There are clothes strewn around him haphazardly, like he was trying to make a nest but didn’t exactly know how. “I don’t feel good.”
Changbin takes a deep breath.
"You're presenting, Seungmin."
--
There's something wrong with Changbin's beta roommate, Seungmin. He can't figure it out until he finds out he's not a beta after all.

Summary
Changbin’s just so good - the type of good that collects tiny animal sculptures and spent weeks perfecting his quiche recipes after finding out that it was Seungmin's favorite... and he’s gorgeous and has his life together and all sorts of things that made it so unbelievable that he’d be into Seungmin... who really struggled - still sometimes struggles - to feel like he has any of that.
He’s really lucky that the older man’s persistent because even just a handful of months into their relationship, Seungmin has a hard time imagining what he’d be doing without him.
Alternatively: Soft, loving boyfriends Seungmin and Changbin experiment with edging for the first time <3

y'know what—i wasn't planning on bookmarking this! really, i liked it, but had conflicting feelings... this is the healthiest and safest dynamic i've read in a while and was really interested in how intense and *real* the orgasm delay negotiation felt (even got surprised that it was TOO intense, filled with such apparent and uncomfortable frustration...). so imagine my discomfort and shock when seungmin confesses at the end that he cried because he was genuinely in emotional distress over changbin's intentions throughout the act.......and i felt SO BAD that i was SO INTO IT 2 minutes before!! really, that was incredibly grounding and a little awkward...but feelings like these are the exact reason why 1) it stuck with me for so long, and why i want to reread this soon, 2) why i'm bookmarking it! also, as a closer, i wanna mention how much i was endeared by the writing style, because it felt so fitting for the introspective sngmn in this story ♡
i'm adding this part of the note after i talked with my friend (who studies psychology) about the concept of the fic and proceeded to have a super interesting analysis and psychological interpretation! bg97, you know your shit! the establishing comfort and safety seungmin finds in changbin leads his body and mind to associate those safe feelings with him; so when his body gets used in such a way, when he feels overstimulated and powerless, when the mind discovers that *his source of comfort* is the one that's *causing harm* and it freaks out! the mind listens to the body and goes 'hey, you, source of comfort—you don't do that usually! i don't associate you with these actions or feelings! hey, i'm not a fan of that!" god, i have to talk with my friend about some of the fics i read, because this explanation elevates my enjoyment of the story *threefold*! an incredibly *fascinating* read!
