Summary
Rapper-producer Min Yoongi takes the train late one night after his friends crash his car unexpectedly. He sits next to a stranger watching cat videos with the volume turned up, and ends up watching with him for the rest of the ride.
A six-minute slightly awkward train ride with someone he barely even talked to or looked at shouldn't have such an effect on Yoongi, but it does. He goes back to catch the same train, again and again.
And slowly and steadily, his world begins to shift.
He doesn’t even know the stranger's name.

Summary
Draco can think of only one way to outclass his pleat-front-khaki-wearing politician ex, and that’s by making headlines with an obvious upgrade. And who better to upstage the cheating bastard than the Saviour of the World, Harry Potter himself? Sure, Potter is a little rough around the edges in ripped jeans, a rumpled tartan shirt, and a permanent scowl. Draco reckons a haircut and a shave wouldn’t hurt, either. But Potter is also in need of a Healer willing to keep his secrets, and Draco is just the man for the job. It’s a perfectly reasonable exchange. They need only attend a couple parties arm-in-arm, smile nicely for the paparazzi, and tolerate each other long enough to convince everyone they’re smitten. In return, Draco will keep Potter alive and in one piece.
But it isn’t long before Draco realises he might be in over his head, because Potter is ten tonnes of trouble packed into a leather jacket, and seems keen on hurtling himself towards death on the back of a flying motorbike. And that says nothing of Potter’s penchant for fire-breathing beasts and things that bite.
Ah well, at least they’ll have some fun while it lasts. After all, Draco always did like a bit of danger.

Summary
Draco thought becoming a healer would be a good way to better himself. He even went to America for it. But his demons keep coming back to haunt him - or rather, Lucius does, plagued by an unpredictable illness that no one knows how to cure.
Out of options, Draco turns to a last resort, one Auror ready-to-please with hair like a rat's nest and specs full of finger prints. He's just as grating as he ever was. Good thing Draco has a solid means of stress relief.
As Lucius begins to get better, things just get worse for Draco. But he doesn't need Saint Potter to save him from anything.
He'll save himself, just like he's always done.
