    Summary

    Fuse had expected... chaos. Maybe a few morally grey ideas, some unhinged brainstorming over iced coffee. But Aou showed up with a literal folder. Tabs and all.

    “You colour-coded my exes,” Fuse said, holding the folder like it might bite him.

    “I grouped them by psychological weakness,” Aou replied, utterly serious. “Blue is insecurity. Yellow is jealousy. Red is ego. I don’t waste time.”

    Fuse blinked. “You’re terrifying.”

    Aou sipped his coffee. “Thank you.”

    Summary

    Car arriving in 3 minutes.
    Driver: Aou.
    Vehicle: Silver Honda Jazz.
    Rating: ★★★★★ (2,372 reviews)

    Boom barely glanced at the profile picture. Just a guy around his age with a goofy smile and a crooked cap, flashing a peace sign. Looked like the kind of person who could fall asleep anywhere and wake up exactly where he needed to be. The kind of person who could disappear into a crowd and not be missed. Carefree.

    The opposite of him.

    Or:

    Lonely CEO Boom meets optimistic Grab Driver Aou and hires him as his go-to driver. Naturally, they develop feelings. Obviously, they are both oblivious disasters about it.

    Summary

    Aou tilted his head slightly, brows knit. “Boom? Why do humans kiss?”

    Boom choked.

    “Is it an exchange of information?” Aou asked helpfully. “A physical confirmation of mutual emotion? A ritual binding?”

    Boom wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. “Why do you think everything is a ritual?”

    “Because it is repeated,” Aou said, as if that explained everything. “It happened in the movie I saw the other day as well. In these stories, it is the climax. The resolution. Sometimes even the reward.”

    “People kiss because they want to. That’s it.”

    “But what does it do?”

    Boom sighed. “It feels good. It tells someone you like them. Or want them. Or love them. It can mean different things. Affection. Desire. Sometimes it’s just comfort.”

    “Physical intimacy as emotional shorthand. Noted.” He paused writing, then glanced over, looking serious. “Have you kissed someone?”

    “What? Why do you want to know?”

    “I am curious. You seem very… guarded.”

     

    OR: Boom finds an alien in his backyard, names him Aou and teaches him how to be human. And maybe falls in love.

    Summary

    Boom and Mix film a silly little video at a party.

    In it, Boom wraps his arm around Mix and smiles at the camera like an angel before twisting into him and going in for a kiss—seemingly.

    Seemingly.

    He needs it to be just realistic enough to get his boyfriend's attention, to tease out the teeth and claws of the demon lurking under the surface of Aou's relaxed demeanor.

    He's never seen it, and he needs to see it. It has to be there.

    If Aou doesn't get jealous, doesn't that mean he doesn't care? He just says he's possessive, then doesn't do anything. So pft. Whatever.

    But, it turns out possessive is no small monster, and Boom has finally woken the sleeping beast.

    Summary

    Playlist: songs from different POVs, MAY give clues to the mysteries / plot! Have fun guessing!

    This is readable even if you haven't watched Beauty Newbie! This fanfiction is a continuation of the series with the focus on Jerry, but since he is a minor / side character and only played an important role in the very end, there's only few spoilers. This was INITIALLY a character study-like fanfiction, BUT IT HAS AN ACTUAL PLOT NOW😭
    I tried to portray psychopathy without trying to romanticise or villainise it.
    Inserted Boom as another major character. 

    Disclaimer: I do not have psychopathy or ASPD and tried to research it as best as I could, but obviously it's not perfect/reliable. I'm no psychologist.Take it with a grain of salt. ASPD and psychopathy are used as synonyms, I know ASPD is the official term/diagnosis, but mostly the term 'psychopathy' is used in real life, so I thought using it here makes it more realistic/relatable.

    It'll 100% have a happy ending😭 Thank you Tiko for the idea (not all of it, but its beginning)

    Summary

    Tan’s return to Bangkok should have been calm, nothing outworldly occurring to him. He simply didn’t expect to meet Khaofang, who happened to be his friend’s brother.

    What goes from a simple coincidence becomes a mutual connection, though Tan is sure he had never fallen in love as hard as he had with Khaofang.

    Yet, if they are each other's love, why does Khaofang believe they shouldn’t be together after all?

    Summary

    Despite all his instincts telling him to push Tan away and run back to his room to hide, Fang stayed there, in Tan’s embrace, focusing on his breathing to not let out any embarrassing sounds.

    After a while, Fang let his eyes slip close, feeling like he could sleep peacefully for the first time since Phum was sent away, mind full of silly facts about fake constellations. Reluctantly, the slight thought about some of the constellations decorating Tan’s face fought their way out of his subconsciousness.

    He felt a soft kiss being dropped to his forehead, but, once again, acted like it went unnoticed. Tan probably thought he was already asleep.

     

    Or

    Tan and Fang, but they started out as childhood neighbours.

    Summary

    “Well, you remind me of a lot of things actually,” Taehyung says thoughtfully, “Old books, the morning sun, the smell of the earth after it rains, lightning, empty ink bottles, old clothes, the residue at the bottom of a coffee cup…”

    Seokjin raises a skeptical brow at that last one, and Taehyung giggles softly, his hand brushing against Seokjin’s in the space between them. His gaze drifts upward, as if searching for the right words. "My point is, you remind me of things that are timeless. Inevitable. Comforting.”

    His eyes return to Seokjin’s. “From the moment I met you, I felt like I knew you, or maybe recognized you. I don't know.” His voice softens. “But I just knew, deep down, that this... us, it wasn’t optional. We were always going to end up like this.”

    OR–

    Seokjin has spent a lifetime perfecting the art of isolation. After a life-altering breakup with the one friend he managed to keep, he escapes to a small town, hoping to disappear into solitude. But Taehyung appears: innocent, carefree, and unapologetically romantic–and shatters the walls Seokjin spent years building around himself.

    Summary

    Fang’s family business director in Thailand passed away, which caused a serious problem for their business. His parents had no choice but to say yes to the late director’s grandson’s offer to help them and, unfortunately, marry their middle. Tan, on the other hand, was heartbroken. His ex-girlfriend broke up with him, and he wanted to get her back.

    “You’ll not marry him, and I’ll get her back. It’s a win-win situation!” Tan suggested, the other nodding in agreement.

    “So, deal?”

    Deal.

    “We should do this.”

    “Enter a couples gameshow?”

    “Yes! Come on, there’s nothing on this stupid cruise and the winners get free drinks for the rest of the journey. All we need to do is pretend to be a couple, well, and win.”

    “You say that so casually.”

    “The alcohol is so goddamn expensive here I cannot keep paying for this.” Tan whined and gave him puppy-dog eyes.

    Fang sighed, “Desperate times call for desperate measures I guess.”

    Summary

    Everyone sees it—except them.

    Aou and Fuse have been stuck in this strange place between friendship and something more. They tease, they argue, they get under each other’s skin in a way that should feel annoying—but never does. There’s something there, something neither of them wants to admit.

    Fuse flirts like it’s a game, always pushing just enough to make Aou react. And Aou? He brushes it off, acting like it doesn’t affect him. But sometimes, his eyes linger too long, his touch lasts a second too much. It’s almost like he’s waiting—waiting for Fuse to be serious, or maybe waiting for permission to feel the same way.

    Their friends have given up trying to make them see the truth. Instead, they just watch, waiting for the moment everything clicks. Will it take jealousy? A big fight? The fear of losing each other for good?

    Or will one of them finally be brave enough to cross the line?
