Summary
George Russell did not mean to commit tax evasion. It just sort of… happened. Look, spreadsheets are hard, and his old finance manager had it out for him anyway. Now, he was staring down a £50,000 fine, the possibility of losing his flat, and the terrifying words of “next year’s filing.”
Solution? Fake a relationship. Obviously.
Max Verstappen, head of programming and George’s long-suffering workplace nemesis, also happened to have visa issues and a suspiciously decent tax bracket. Combine forces, share liabilities, and get the government off their backs. Should be easy.
Except now George was sharing his mornings, a cosy flat, and basically his life with Max Verstappen—who insisted on sleeping on the uncomfortable sofa-bed in his computer room, cooked eggs at ungodly hours, and looked unfairly good in hoodies.
It was fine. It was fake. It was only for taxes…right?
Alternatively, The Proposal AU that no one asked for.

Summary
"So, Sir," he adds this time for good measure. "Correct me if I’m wrong. You want me to go on a trip with you this weekend to Gimpo." Minho hums at his words without sparing a glance at him, distractedly starting to cut the grilled pork intestine. "To your family's home," Jisung stresses this part. "To your grandmother's birthday party," Minho takes the first bite before he turns to ask for a little extra kimchi on the side. Jisung huffs. "As your boyfriend?!"
"Yes, Jisung. You heard me," Minho frowns at him. Actually, Jisung doesn’t think he has ever seen his face free from the permanent scowl that decorates it. "Stop yelling or I'm going to think that all this time you weren't as incompetent as I thought but just deaf."
Charming.

Summary
“T-terminated?” Daniel parrots. “I’m terminated?”
Armand is hardly fazed by his confusion. “Yes. And I am, as you so eloquently put it, so soulless it makes you want to fuck roadkill.”
Four years as Armand’s personal assistant, gone in an instant thanks to Daniel’s big mouth. Now he can kiss goodbye to any reputable career beyond Armand’s errand boy. Daniel will do anything to get that job back. Armand just wants to look like something other than a total failure.
Lestat turns to him, lips curled in cruel laughter. “Five years? And you still play butler for the little demon? How sweet. His personal mini gremlin.”
Armand cuts in for Daniel, closing the distance between them. “Yes, Daniel is still my assistant, Lestat.” And suddenly they’re touching. Daniel nearly jumps at the sensation, head whipping around to see Armand’s face. “And also, he is my boyfriend.”

Summary
It’s hard being Draco Malfoy: workaholic publishing professional extraordinaire. Between revolutionizing the Wizarding World and fighting with Harry Potter, his chief of staff, it makes sense Draco forgot to check if his mother filed some paperwork. Oops. Easy enough to avoid deportation by saying he’s engaged to said manager.
Too bad that plan involves visiting Ottery St Catchpole, a gaggle of redheads, and defrauding the government.

Summary
They had saved the world. Great. Except now there was a new problem. Logan didn’t exactly have a birth certificate, or a social security number, or any family from the last 150 years. That, along with the fact that he was from a different universe, meant that both the Canadian and American governments were very confused. Now there was a bored sounding guy on the phone telling him that there was no way for him to stay in the US, and that he would be deported.
“Is there any way for me to stay?” He was trying desperately not to slam his claws through the wall in anger.
“The only option that I can find, Mr. Howlett, is if you were married to an American citizen.” The guy sighed, ready for Logan to shout again. All he was met with was silence. Would it work?
“Mr. Howlett?”
“Can you give me a day?”or
The plot of The Proposal adapted to fit these two, where Logan has to marry Wade to stay in the US.or
I remembered the Nicepool quote at the same time I saw fanart of the Proposal movie poster but with Wade and Logan, and I couldn't help myself.-

Summary
Editor-in-chief of a renowned American magazine, Jeon Jeongguk is known around the office for being cold, strict, and a perfectionist. But when his U.S. residency visa is about to expire and deportation becomes a very real threat, he finds himself out of options — until Park Jimin, his assistant, walks through his office door on a particularly desperate morning.
Charismatic, dedicated, and veeery much single, Jimin turns out to be the missing piece in Jeongguk’s plan: a marriage of convenience.
No feelings involved — Jeon would get to keep his visa, and Park would finally have someone decent to introduce to his demanding family.
At least, that’s what they both thought.

Summary
“Who-who’s getting married, excuse me?” was what Jake blurted out as a question.
Because his mind was literally refusing to believe a single word Bradley was saying and the point he was making by using that verb in a meaningful sentence with the two of them as the subject.
Bradley’s hand, large and warm, rested on Jake’s chest and he felt his heart leap into his throat at such an embarrassing rate that he thought, for a long moment, that he was going to collapse and pass out in front of them all.
“You and me, silly. There’s no need to hide our love from Ice and Mav anymore,” Bradley whispered in a fake sweet tone, as the world crumpled around Jake and dragged him down an abyss of lies. “Unfortunately, it’s the same old cliche you watch in romcom movies. You know, the boss and the assistant, long nights together in the office, intercontinental trips for books fairs... we are just two people who should never have fallen in love. And yet we did!”
[Jake is Bradley's assistant and he hates his boss so, so much... but he is forced to be his fiancé out of nowhere. Aka The Proposal AU]
