Summary
Taeil never asked for favours. He was too polite for that, too routed in his role as an elder, unwilling to burden his friends with personal issues or requests. He never flinched in the face of duty, but he was content to hold his burdens close to his chest to save the weight from the people he cared for.
He never asked for favours, so when he did, Kun agreed without asking questions.

Bookmarker's Notes
Kun could never turn away a friend in need, so when a friend of a friend needs a place to stay for the summer, who is Kun to refuse.
But when an injured, mysterious, techy Ten shows up on his doorstep, Kun doesn't know what to expect.
What follows is a summer of breaking down walls, non-linear healing, small town shenanigans and baby kittens... not necessarily in that order.
Oh, and love... lots and lots of love.

THE MATTHEW AGREEMENT:
A FINAL LIST OF RULES AS DETERMINED BY PARTICIPANTS PARK GUNWOOK AND KIM TAERAEGunwook and Taerae make a joint pact to let Matthew decide which member he wants to date. The only caveat, they can't let him know they're interested, and instead have to rely solely on fanservice and not so subtle innuendos.
It goes about exactly as well as you'd think.

Summary
The surface of Earth is uninhabitable, humanity has retreated to independent city-states in the sky, and poverty is rampant in the city-state of Hwaseong. But for a chance at a better life, 99 male contestants can compete in an annual game of survival. The nine winners will be granted a portion of the significant pool of prize money. The rest will perish within the brutal grounds of the arena, located amongst the ruins of Seoul.
Sung Hanbin, a convicted criminal, sees the games as his chance to escape either execution or exile and protect his best friend, Seok Matthew, from a similar fate. However he soon collides with another contestant, Zhang Hao, and in even in the midst of hell feelings begin to bloom.
(Because this is, after all, a love story.)

Bookmarker's Notes
99 walk in... only 9 walk out.
A chance to change their lives. Get out of the slums. Help their families. Pay for medical treatment. If they win, they could have anything their hearts desire.
Hanbin didn't join the games to make friends, but apparently family can turn up in the most unexpected of places. But in a fight for their lives, there's no guarantee they'll all survive in the arena.
And in the end... maybe winning isn't exactly all it's cracked up to be either.

Wait, is that really how its supposed to go?
Featuring inner voices, fake dating, a much too tired Na Kamden, and Ricky's inner omega knowing exactly what he wants far earlier than Ricky himself manages to figure it out.

Summary
“Who was the love of your life?”
Zuko’s anger vanishes, leaving a clear sadness in its wake. He meets Korra’s eyes, expression nearly unreadable. “It was Sokka.”
Oh. Okay, yeah, she did not expect this. Maybe she should have, but it goes against literally everything she’s been told about Zuko, nothing any magazine has ever written has ever even implied-
She’s thinking too hard, clearly. “Six wives,” Zuko says, tone dull, “and I’m gay. Truly a feat, isn't it?”
“You’re gay?”
Zuko ignores her embarrassing statement of the obvious. “I think I spent my whole life loving him."

Summary
In a noisy bar next to a university campus, Korn claims that he's going to keep coming back there for the rest of his life, and Wai doesn't believe him.
“I can bet you won’t even be here in a year.”
“Oh, can you?” Korn replies quickly, eyebrow cocked like a challenge. “It’s a deal, then.”
There’s a pause in Wai’s exterior, but inside his head, it’s a battlefield. His natural response is to back away, threaten with a punch, and storm off. That’s what he’d usually do if Korn managed to get this close. But it’s been long enough since their usual turned into a memory, and he’s drunk enough to have an excuse as to why he’d try to hold onto this unusual instead.
“It’s a deal,” Wai repeats. “Here, in exactly a year. We’ll see.”

Summary
Gyuvin thinks about holding Ricky’s hand for more than a bow at the end of a show, and he thinks about the little nook at the end of the corridor on the top floor of the company building where people go to have private telephone conversations. He wonders if two bodies would fit in there pressed up against each other and how long it would take Hanbin-hyung to realise two of his members are missing if he just took Ricky by the wrist and dragged him there to confess to him.
Now they’re not trainees and Gyuvin needs to stop thinking up stupid shit like that, except he doesn’t know how to stop.
OR
Gyuvin wants Ricky to call him his boyfriend for real.

Summary
When Vegas is handed the keys to a failing major family hotel and told to bring it back to life, he knows it’s not a gift, or a test, or even an opportunity to prove himself. It’s a taunt. It’s a way to set him up for failure so everyone can rub his nose in the shitshow he’s left with, defeated and inferior to his cousins like always. It’s the death sentence of his pride in a gilded cage.
But misery loves company and all that, and he finds a surprisingly fitting cellmate in an unassuming looking employee named Pete. Now if only he could get Pete to stop playing hard to get, this cage could become a lot more comfortable.

In where Vegas starts with a failing hotel and a waiter who can't seem to decide if he hates him or wants to sleep with him and ends with a hedgehog, a live-in croupier, and a halfway decent start to a new Theerapankul empire away from his father's influence.
Featuring Vegas lusting after Pete in the most red-flag way possible. But don't worry, Pete kinda likes it.

Summary
'When Hinata woke in the evening, he half expected to see the wild man mysteriously gone, as though he'd never been there in the first place.
But instead, there he lay, fast asleep. Shafts of deep golden sunlight fell across the man's sleeping form, and Hinata stared at him, transfixed. He had long, dark lashes and a finely shaped, straight nose, and low cheekbones with a proud jawline, all of which started to fill out some sort of stereotypical profile for a rugged jungle king.
If ever there had been someone created to survive the unforgiving landscape of the jungle, it was him.'
--
The rainforest expedition is to last a full year—365 days of living under the lush canopy of trees.
Danger looms. Adventure awaits. The jungle calls. Hinata Shouyou has never wanted anything more.
Or so he thinks, until he meets a curious stranger there, who shows him what it means to be truly needed.

Summary
L Lawliet was born in the year 1631, and left on the doorsteps of an English orphanage.
Frozen in time at the age of 24 due to a run in with a vampire, in modern day L is now one of the greatest detectives in the world. When a serial killer known as Kira begins to kill criminals through heart attacks, L agrees to take on the case.
When he realizes one of the suspects is Light Yagami though, everything about the case changes.
Because since 1655, L has seen that face countless times through countless lifetimes. Because even though his name changes with every new lifetime granted, L somehow always runs into him. Somehow, he always seems to be at the source of L's problems, no matter the century.
So L knows as soon as he sees Light Yagami, that he has to be the one he's searching for
aka L is a vampire and somehow always finds a reincarnated Light every few decades, and even though Light has no memory of his past lives, he almost always is the cause of L's issues. It's only more of a headache that L falls in love with the bastard every time too.

Wei Wuxian whistled. "Wow, Captain, you’re probably glad you managed to deal with that before the new stuffed shirts from Starfleet arrived."
Nie Mingjue heaved a sigh which practically shook the station. Whoever said the only emotion Klingons knew how to emote was anger clearly had never seen one of them irritated. Wei Wuxian had a lot of firsthand experience with it.
Nie Mingjue straightened and turned to the Vulcans standing alongside Wei Wuxian. "Command Lan, Lieutenant Commander Lan. Welcome to Baxia Station."
Oh.
"Are you Lieutenant Commander Lan or Commander Lan?" Wei Wuxian asked the painfully beautiful and definitely annoyed Vulcan beside him.
The question earned him a cutting glare. "Lieutenant Commander Lan Wangji."
Well, that had to count for something, right?
Lieutenant Commander Lan Wangji joins Baxia Station as Head Science Officer. Of all the things he anticipates upon accepting the commission, Wei Wuxian is not among them.

Summary
It’s in the middle of scanning the last bottle of green tea that Itadori properly looks up. Eye contact with him is a physical, unexpected shock, a crunch of imaginary static snapping through Megumi and leaving his hands twitching at his sides.
"Hey." Itadori blinks, wide and earnest. "Do I know you from somewhere?"
The tea sloshes backwards in the bottle he’s holding. Megumi focuses on this until his vision steadies.
"No," he says. "I don’t think so."
In the aftermath, Itadori loses his memories instead of his life. Megumi grieves nonetheless.
