Summary
He lets himself sink beneath the surface and swallows a lungful of the chlorinated water; the chemicals sting within the blood vessels of the eyes he refuses to screw shut—and maybe this is what it means to be in love: to inhale something impossible, willingly, with eyes wide open.
or: snippets of what was and what could have been, told through the existence of an IKEA armchair.

A lesson in love is a lesson in swimming. Except for Suguru, it's getting dropped into the deep end with the tide licking at his neck, no kickboard or life preserver keeping him afloat.
(Or: This is how Satoru finds the ocean.)

Summary
In a world plagued by villains, heroes, and supernatural powers that may as well be cursed techniques, Fushiguro Megumi and Kugisaki Nobara conclude that the only way to capture the attention of the missing Itadori Yūji is to force their faces on screen.
—or, the frogs learn to live outside the well, while missing a third of themselves, and that is by attending Japan's number one hero school.

The demon watching you from the foot of your bed by ghostjoon

Summary
The first thing Namjoon sees is a life size reproduction of a medieval nativity scene made exclusively of spongebob characters. He’d heard about that famous reproduction of The wave entirely made of pugs, but that one composition is totally new to him. Probably a special commission to make the waiting room more welcoming, he imagines.
He squints from where he's sitting on (a velvet meridienne) and comes to the conclusion that yes, that is real paint, not a simple print of a digital illustration. Not that it wouldn't already be impressive, of course. Kudos to the artist.
The second thing he sees, right underneath the painting, is a massive rainbow flag.- Language:

Summary
Sokka is born in the dead of winter with a red dragon curling down the left side of his back.
Zuko is born in the sweltering heat of summer with a sword down his spine.
—
He doesn’t want to talk about it when their gazes turn on him. They make assumptions— is it someone he left behind in the Fire Nation? He looks away when he agrees with them.
Toph brushes past him when they all part ways. She says, “I know you’re lying.”

Summary
[Time passes oddly. Between one second and the next, Sokka has the Fire Lord pinned to the wall with his hands around the bastard’s throat. Golden eyes (one gold eye, his mind whispers) widen in shock.
“Sokka?” he chokes out. And then he smiles.
What the fuck?
“Sokka, I—”
Sokka slams his head against the wall, once, twice, and the smile wipes off his face. Good.
“What,” Sokka bites out, “have you done to my sister?”]
Or:
An injury leaves Sokka with amnesia. His last memory is of the failed invasion, of leaving his father behind in enemy territory on the Day of Black Sun. Of hopelessness. Rage.
But then he wakes up, and the war is over. Suddenly, he must come to terms with the fact that years have passed, and that he's somehow the Southern Water Tribe Ambassador to the Fire Nation. He is also supposedly friends with banished-Prince-turned-Fire-Lord Zuko, of all people. Close friends.
Yeah, nah.

Summary

Summary
“Car stereo too loud? Walking in the middle of the sidewalk? Offensive dad jokes? Filed under intentional obstruction of public order? You’re dealing with the mastermind behind the biggest drug cartel in history and you arrest him for discourteous shoulder width?”
Embarrassed, Detective Namjoon occupies himself by stapling a stack of recycling paper and aggressively feigning ignorance.

They had understood each other, once.
( Namjoon wondered where it went wrong, when was it that Seokjin had become so unknown to him. It was a gradual thing, he thinks. )

Summary
(They'll pass out quickly -- Seokjin's nose nudged into the divot of the other's collarbone, two bodies wrapped up loosely between wrinkled sheets.
The house will fall to a still silence, like objects of affection holding their breaths in the presence of a love, unadulterated.)

Summary
There are two types of people in the world, Namjoon realises. Those who live on the bright, sparkling streets of Tokyo where everything is beautiful and filled with hope, and those who live in the dark underbelly of the city, where everything is ugly and steeped in despair.
Seokjin stands at the mouth of the dark alleyway, ready to rip the underbelly wide open and devour the world.

Summary
As he was putting his socks on the next morning and Minsun was coming out of the shower, he told him that “Seeing you always run to another man like that really hurts you know. I know how much Namjoon means to you, but sometimes I just wonder-”
“Namjoon doesn’t even like men,” Seokjin said flatly.
“That doesn’t really answer my question.”
“Yes it does.” Seokjin got up, placed a short peck on Minsun’s lips and left for work.
It really didn’t.
or, as Namjoon sees it: Namjoon can't write songs anymore and Seokjin won't.

Summary
'“Wait,” Namjoon mutters, bringing his hands up to his head, fingers lightly pulling at the longer strands of hair. “Wait, are they-”
“Technically, until we get an official ID on them, we can’t confirm anything,” Jimin says, holding up the report and waving it in Namjoon’s direction. “But reports say that they’ve been wearing the rings for a couple years now, and they’ve been spotted multiple times being,” Jimin wiggles his eyebrows, “romantically affiliated.”
Taehyung flashes Namjoon a boxy grin. “AKA, you and Seokjin-hyung are going undercover as-”
“-a married couple,” Namjoon finishes, and he wonders if the ground can swallow him whole as the words settle in his mind and the realization hits.
When a pair of arms dealers wind up dead, detective partners Kim Namjoon and Kim Seokjin are sent undercover as them in order to find out who they were planning to sell to. The twist? These two arms dealers happen to be married, and Namjoon and Seokjin's undercover operation is about to give a whole new definition to the term 'partner'.
