Summary
“So, what’s up with you? You have bitch face.” Minho asked.
“You have a bitch’s face!” Jisung pouted back.
“No, I mean you’re scowling. Dumbass.” Minho chuckled with a smile.
“Oh… Yeah, well I just got rejected.” Jisung huffed, leaning against the counter too.
“That sucks balls. What happened?”
“I was talking to this woman, getting comfortable with her, and apparently that means she didn’t take me at face value when I said I only want to do casual hookup shit.”Or: Jisung liked to keep his life simple and his love life casual. And Minho… Well, Minho liked Jisung. Can a casual brojob ever be just casual?

Summary
Lee Minho had been missing for nearly six months.
Watching the time tick by was driving Jisung insane.
Which was something Jisung learned very quickly - they all went insane eventually.

Summary
He held his breath and settled in to wait, but Jisung never expected to live a lifetime without air...
Taken from his pack Jisung mourns his brother's death and prays for a swift end to it all. But what happens when instead of execution, he finds the love he'd spent his life waiting for?
________
“… we could go at the same time. You take mine and I’ll take yours. That way we can come back together.”
Hiccuping, tears fall freely down Jisung's face dripping to the bare chest below him. “You think we’ll find each other in the next life?”
“Oh my pretty baby… there is no life we live at the same time where I don’t search for you. I only pray that in the next one, I’m not the cause of your tears…”
(An A/B/O Romeo and Juliet style fic but with a happy ending)

Summary
Minho wishes he could see the thread linking Grandma to her other half, but it is something that only soulmates can witness. Once, she told him once about how it looks like one of the knots she crochets; she picked up the yarn, as red as her string, and showed him the split knot, placing it perfectly on Minho’s right pinky and told him; “this is what mine looks like.”
As an adult, Minho still wonders what his thread would look like; would it be soft like yarn or silky like ribbon? What shade of red would wrap around him? Is the thread on his pinky, like his Grandma’s? Or is it on a different finger? Or perhaps on his wrist… He is not too hopeful that he will ever find out, mostly because the reports on soulmate findings have become more and more rare.
Why would Lee Minho, of all people, find his?

Summary
The assistant director lays the stack of scripts down gingerly, perhaps almost reverently. Minho folds one hand over the other and hopes it will be enough to hide the slight tremor that he can already feel setting in. His eyes scan the front page, before returning back to the title. There it is, bold black on stark white, all capitalised: RED STRING THEORY.
He blinks. He doesn’t quite know what he had been expecting, but this is not that.
—
or, Minho has been Jisung's bandmate, best friend and self-proclaimed soulmate for years now — becoming his acting partner in an uncomfortably BL-adjacent drama won't change anything, surely.

Summary
“I’m warning you right now, before this goes any further—” Minho threatens, running his finger around the rim of his glass to gather the sugar. “I have a rule that I only sleep with someone once. That’s it. You won’t be the exception, trust me.”
The guy clears his throat. Blinks. Looks back into Minho’s eyes and settles back into the easy, cocky grin he’s been wearing since he sidled up. “All I need is once to blow your mind,” he drawls, perfectly sleazy.
(OR: Minho never sleeps with the same guy twice; Jisung becomes a master of disguise)

Summary
“Come here often?” An alpha, smelling of chocolate and orange, voice deep and slightly wavered. Minho lifted his eyes. The alpha was handsome, if not a little boyish. He seemed slight, all cheeks and nervous energy, perhaps a bit tipsy as well if the flush on his face and muss to his hair was to be trusted. His tie was loosened, exposing collarbones slightly dampened with sweat and what looked like could have been the bleeding ink of a tattoo. If it wasn’t for his scent Minho might have pegged him for an omega, beta at best.
A hand came down on the wall beside his head, the man leaning over casually, soles of his shoes slipping a bit on the hardwood floor. The alphas face fell into something of a frightened hamster at the loss of balance before regaining composure and returning to a smug smile. Minho watches intently, suddenly very curious to what lengths this man would go to impress him.Or: A one night stand results in pregnancy, and Lee Minho's life becomes inextricably tied to one Han Jisung, the biggest loser he'd ever met.

Summary
Lee Minho has the Cupid’s Touch; everyone he dates or has sex with soon finds their soulmate.
For anyone who reaps the benefits it’s a godsend, a way for them to find their person. To Minho himself it’s a curse, because how can you ever love someone when you know you’ll have to let them go?

Summary
Han Jisung wants nothing more than his own little family.
A marriage, a child, a place to call home...
Desperate and ready to get what he wants, he asks his boss, Lee Minho, to be in a pretend relationship with him so they can adopt a child.
What Jisung did not expect was to actually fall in love in the process.

Summary
Jisung didn't want to come across as too obvious. He really didn't.
But that breathtaking physiotherapist of his wasn't helping in the slightest. Drove his heart up the walls within his chest, desire adhering itself like a second epidermis. And it was constant.
No other thought rattled his head. His skull was hollowed out of anything less important ― it only consisted of the man's graceful touch. How it'd feel if he just touched him a little more intimately.
So, that is why he believed constantly pitching up at the clinic earlier than scheduled was valid enough.
★
Or: Jisung is unhealthily obsessed with his new physical therapist.

Summary
Minho doesn’t trust his own judgment at the moment, or his flirting abilities. And he doesn’t want to ruin his chances of appearing like a nice, normal, marriageable hyung if he says something like please let me sniff you until I fall asleep. So he only says “thanks.” Then he remembers to add, “sorry again for disturbing you so late at night.”
“My prime time usually starts after Hyunjin goes to sleep,” Jisung says, already shifting between his feet, signaling the end of their short conversation. “But he always likes to throw in little surprises like now, so— thanks. For taking care of him.”
Minho smiles softly. Forces himself to say, “well, I won’t keep you any longer. Have a good night—” He pauses. Decides to add a petname. “Jisungie.”
The color of his cheeks turning rosy and beautiful. Jisung smiles and nods. “Good night, hyung.”

or: a case study in taking things slowly.

Summary
No matter how hard Minho stared at the envelope, the name on it would not change.
“to Minho”.
It was written in neat, cursive letters that didn’t look like the handwriting of a 6th grader.
It was from Chris.
(or: Minho and Chan are 6th-grade English teachers that start a letter exchange project between two schools. They end up becoming penpals themselves and silly letters turn into something neither of them had expected.)

Summary
“I’m calling from the Seoul National Medical Centre. We have you listed here as the emergency contact for a Han Jisung. Do I have the right person?”
(Three years ago, Minho broke Jisung's heart with a single phone call. It's ironic then, that the universe decides to return the favour.)

Summary
Jisung leans his head back, lazy. Like he can’t be bothered to pick it up. Like it’s too heavy, or he’s too sleepy. “Do you think it would fuck everything up if we slept together for real?”
“Everything,” Minho says, not quite a question, but not understanding. A general repetition for the benefit of the both of them. Because his throat hurts a little bit, and he needs a second to swallow it down.
He brings his hand back to steering. Both of them right where they’re meant to be.
“Everything, like— us,” Jisung waves his finger between them. “You’re my best friend. And I’m yours. And I’ve always wondered, you know?”
Minho is white knuckling the wheel. He can still feel Jisung beneath his fingertips, or maybe just within his bloodstream. Injected there to sit. Stay.

Summary
Fuck the pizza. Jisung wanted to eat Minho, and he wanted to be eaten, too. Maybe then he would feel satisfied. Since they couldn’t do that, though, Jisung kissed him instead.
It was almost enough.
or; I have been listening to YUNGBLUD's version of "I Was Made for Lovin' You" on repeat and was heavily inspired by minsung's obsession with each other.

But the world outside his tower has so much more to offer than just the lights.

Summary
Jisung would be lying if he said he wasn’t always curious about Minho’s job. On a drunken night many many months ago, he got so curious that he asked Minho to tell him about some of the scenarios they’re asked to act out and Minho proceeded to tell him about a scenario many customers ask for that’s set in a hot spring where one of the guys offers to give the other a massage and it escalates from there.
It doesn’t really escalate. They never do stuff that might cause them indecency charges out in the open in a random café in downtown Seoul. But Jisung’s mind wandered, and his imagination sparked, and his brain was haunted by flashing images of Minho in a hot spring, giving, or receiving a massage, and things escalating, really escalating from there.
He never asked about his job after that.- - -
or: Jisung starts working at the yaoi café where his best friend, Minho, works.
