    Summary

    "And lastly, Chef Beomgyu. Your thoughts on the dish?"

    Everyone turns their heads to look at him but he can only focus on Taehyun. He's finally looking at him. He's finally acknowledging his presence. Beomgyu needs to keep this up.

    "To be honest, I disagree completely with my fellow judges," he starts.

    Someone in the back gasps. Cameras zoom in closer on both his and Taehyun's reactions. Beomgyu can see Soobin pacing behind the lighting director, but all he can focus on are those big eyes staring straight back at him.

    "How so?" asks the host.

    "It's completely unbalanced, in my opinion. No acid to cut the sweetness, meat is overdone, and the seasoning is way too heavy for someone who calls themselves a professional," Beomgyu says. Honestly, he just rattles off the first comments he can think of, but most critiques end up sounding the same after so many competition shows.

    Taehyun remains as calm as ever. "Interesting feedback from someone who has yet to even try a bite of my dish."

    ---

    A surprise twist to a cooking competition show forces rival celebrity chefs Kang Taehyun and Choi Beomgyu to work together despite their well documented hatred for each other.

    Summary

    “Let’s divorce, Soobin.” Yeonjun repeated. “When I’ll be discharged I’ll take care of everything.”

    “Let’s try to fix it again, hyung.” Soobin’s desperation was prominent in his eyes, in his cracking voice. “We can do this.”

    “Soobin,” Yeonjun sighed, as if he was tired from explaining something obvious. “We tried it so many times, and still nothing.”

    “A month,” Soobin gasped out.

    "One month what?” Yeonjun frowned.

    “Give me a month to make you fall in love with me again, hyung."

    Thirty days, it seemed to be enough. Earlier it took half a year to make Yeonjun’s heart melt, but Soobin really hoped that somewhere inside, there was still a little flame of love towards him. Love, Yeonjun tried to throw away. If only Soobin could protect it against expiration and ignite it a little more, then maybe they could go back again.
    Or

    Soobin and Yeonjun try to gather their shattered hearts and make it works again just for a month.

    Summary

    “Guys, what does submissive and breedable mean?” Beomgyu asks the others, squinting at his phone screen to make sure he’s reading the words out right. Semi-right. Close enough, either way.

    From somewhere across the room, Yeonjun chokes. Loudly.

    Beomgyu offers up his dignity in exchange for getting the upper hand in his and Yeonjun’s little game of embarrassing each other. (The results are even better than expected.)

    Summary

    You've seen it. A fic formatted like a classified document. A chapter that looks like a real social media feed. An interactive game, somehow, inside an AO3 work. You clicked the kudos button. You thought: how.

    This is the tutorial that answers that.

    A beginner-friendly guide to HTML and CSS on AO3 — no prior coding experience required. By the end of this series, you'll know enough to write formatted fics, build your own workskins, style your entire AO3 interface, and maybe make something that makes other people stop and think how.

    Summary

    “Do you like him?”

    “What?”

    “The pretty man from the fight,” Beomgyu says. “Yeonjun.”

    “I don't know. I think he's pretty.”

    “Just like Velvet?”

    Soobin hums, closing his eyes. It's late. The Pit is dozing off too. He feels a little delirious. “Yeah, just like Velvet.”

    Soobin finds himself infatuated with two men at the same time: Yeonjun, the fighter who takes his title as the victor, and Velvet, the stripper from the up-and-coming Red Vice.

    Summary

    taehyun paused, heart thrumming like war drums in her chest. she could still back out, she could give a lame reason like i was just passing by or i need to get something inside, i’ll be quick. but Taehyun remembered she didn’t raise herself to be a quitter. she put herself in this situation so she might as well go through it.

    so with the steadiest voice she could muster, taehyun asked, “can I scent you?”

    they were married, but not mated. they were partners, but not in love. they were friends, but nothing more than that. beomgyu had every right to decline if she was uneasy about it, and given that she never asked or hinted she wanted to do it with Taehyun before, she must probably feel uncomfortable about it—

    beomgyu opened the door wider and smiled. “only if I can scent you too.”

    error. system rebooting. sirens ringing. emergency alert coded red.

    forget the danger level five behemoth taehyun was thinking about earlier, the person standing in front of her posed a greater threat to her life.

    kang taehyun pines for her wife.

    Summary

    The staff at Starkissed Country Club always have something to talk about. Lately, it’s the young engaged couple who show up three times a week only to play tennis while yelling at each other.

    Soobin and Beomgyu couldn’t care less about being known as the crazy couple of Starkissed.

    Neither of them wants the marriage their parents arranged, but they’re forced to interact under the hopeful idea that spending enough time together might make them fall in love.

    And they might.

    Just not with each other.

    Reunited with his not-so-former high school crush, Beomgyu is forced to confront the identity he'd repressed, and reconsider the life he never thought he could have.

    ─── ⋆⋅☼⋅⋆ ───

    Maybe crazy isn’t quite the right word for Taehyun. You are so, so, deeply confusing to me, he wants to say instead. I want so badly to know you. I want the ground to swallow me every time you look at me.

    Summary

    Taehyun didn’t like his job per se, but the problem was that he was good at it — at stalking and minding other people’s business, that meant. And the money was pretty nice as well.

    When he got the order to follow around Choi Yeonjun, leader of rising band N3W RULES, to uncover some juicy scandals, he didn’t except to find him making out with his best friend in an alleyway.

    So — as any great best friend and religious follower of the bro code — he’s bound to cover up their hot fucking mess of secret dating shenanigans.

    Taehyun really hopes he gets a promotion and raise for this, especially if it means he’s forced to deal with band member and trademarked nuisance Choi Beomgyu.

    Summary

    What he wasn’t ready for was the hitch that would surface once he’d happen to switch bodies with his most unfavorable rival, Kang Taehyun.

    Summary

    "Are you calling me a mistake?" Venom dropped from the older prince's words as he sprang up, left hand clutching tightly at his hip around the air where his sword was supposed to be. The familiar texture of leather usually helped him calm himself down but the lack of it only served to frustrate him more. Taehyun's head tilted to the right but his eyes were cold and sharp.

    "Might as well," he answered and before Beomgyu could articulate any more words, Taehyun had turned upon his heel and walked out of the gazebo and down the cobblestoned path that led outside the gardens. The dark-haired boy watched him leave, feeling the thrum in his veins die as he realized just what had happened.

     

     

    or, princes of neighbouring kingdoms Beomgyu and Taehyun get into an arranged marriage for alliances of their kingdoms and learn about what it means to learn to love.

    Summary

    Beomgyu meets the dark piercing eyes of Kang Taehyun and the tip of his sword makes contact with his throat. He could practically feel the cold steel pressing against his skin, ready to cut into him at the slightest movement.

    Taehyun's voice was low and filled with simmering anger as he hissed, "Thought you could escape, didn't you?"

    As Beomgyu gasped for air, he couldn't help but notice the intensity in Taehyun's wide eyes. The shadows of the forest cast an ominous glow on his face. Even in this situation, he couldn't deny the striking presence of the man who had captured him.

    He doesn't know what type of blind stupidity takes over him, but Beomgyu finds himself responding breathlessly. "Why don't you just kill me?"

    -

    In the realm of Mirage, five powerful kingdoms battle for supremacy in the wake of the king's death and two heirs from opposing royal families find themselves embroiled in a bitter feud. When Choi Beomgyu's father assumes the throne, Kang Taehyun upholds his family's honor and takes Beomgyu captive. In the mix of lies, betrayals, and bloodshed, Taehyun and Beomgyu connect on a deeper level, finding a mutual bond of love and understanding despite their family’s rivalry.

    Summary

    Ever since he became a single dad, Choi Beomgyu hasn’t had luck finding love—not that he minds. He’d rather focus on his work and son than worry about dates that always go wrong.

    (plus, he'd never admit it out loud, but he still hasn't moved on from his ex.)

    However, his opinions about dating soon change when an omega by the name of Kang Taehyun comes into his life, and changes it for the better.

    Summary

    The first time they 'met' was in the forest when they were young, with no words exchanged and only a single sparkling feather left behind.

    This time, ten years later, they exchange their first words at a café.
    The only thing is that they don't realise they shared that night together. Or more accurately, they don't recognise each other.

    It's only later on that Taehyun notices the familiar feather around Beomgyu's neck, identical to the one he kept.

     

    Who could have predicted just how important they would become to each other?

    Summary

    “I’m glad you’re speaking again, because you have a beautiful voice that matches your mesmerizing–” Taehyun halted abruptly with a fake cough.

    That was close. So close to divulging his nerdy spirit, or perhaps the fairy would take him as a perv. He legitimized it to be a habit. His profession of surveying any details of an organism. Of course he did, he’s a biologist, absolutely not because the fairy looked more stunning than any woman he encountered.

    –Taehyun, the reclusive biologist, expected to study elegance, not a shy, clumsy fairy tripping over the hose while watering his flowers, and obviously not one that discovered his ugly secret.

    As for his Ark, he had only one rule– ‘When the sun sets, never visit the west wing.’

    Beomgyu was tempted.
