Summary
“Minho.” Jisung said with finality. He still wore that same afflicted expression, but he stood up a little taller, visibly drawing in a deep breath and squaring his shoulders in a way that might have been comical had Minho felt in a laughing mood.
“Yeah…?” Minho prompted, side-eying his roommate as he bent down to slip his shoes off.
Fixing his gaze at a patch of white-painted wall, Jisung sprang the Question of the Year. “Will you be my—,” a short pause, “—fake boyfriend tomorrow?”
(Minho had always thought his roommate didn’t particularly like him—until Jisung asked him to be his fake date for a lunch out with nagging parents. After it, further misunderstandings sent what was supposed to be a single afternoon of pretending spiraling out of control.)

Summary
“What the fuck is Peter Han doing in our house?!”
“Huh.” Minho is confused; words are coming out of Hyunjin’s mouth but none of it is making sense to him. “What are you talking about?”
“Peter Han!” Hyunjin repeats. “He was in the movie we just saw yesterday, for fucks sake!”
In which: Minho's humdrum existence undergoes a romantic upheaval after he (quite literally) bumps into Hollywood star Peter Han.

Summary
Minsung. He saw the word everywhere. On YouTube. On Twitter. On every social media platform if he's being honest. He saw and watched. And watched some more. To the point that he started acknowledging and believing it himself.
That is until Minho got himself a girlfriend.
(Where Jisung finally comes to terms with his feelings for his bandmate, but is left stranded alone to bury a love which never saw the light.)

Summary
Minho's used to silence. He's used to the way the villagers avoid his eyes when they visit him asking for help, the way they look at him with fear and distrust when they think he can't see. He's used to his world being the sprawling garden within the old ivy-covered iron fence and the familiar warmth of the cottage. He's used to it just being him, his cats, and the old journals.
It isn't until a villager somehow wanders into the garden despite the enchantments that he's faced with how unbearably isolated he's become, or how hard it is to open up to someone after years of being alone— or how freeing it is to know someone understands him.
-
Or, the one where Minho is a lonely village witch and Jisung is a plucky village boy who's determined to befriend him.

Summary
Jisung smirks at him all slant and cocky, voice thick with confidence. "Want me to sign you an autograph, honey?"
The intimidatingly gorgeous stranger snaps his eyes to him with a gaze that's almost.. challenging? One brow arches beneath his snapback, judgmental and maybe a little amused, and Jisung is struck with a creeping realization that he's finally met his match.
"Actually," the stranger utters, voice cold and flat where it slipped past lips of curved pink, "I'd like to compete with you."
-
Nosebleeds, elbow scrapes, bruises all over and the adrenaline high of riding his board at speeds that others could only dream of — that was all Jisung wanted.
What Jisung needed, Minho thought, was to be put in his place.Series

Summary
Chan turns to him as if he could hear his name from inside Jisung’s mind. Jisung stares back and sees a sense of responsibility polished into shining brass, blood and sweat and tears and happiness and seven years of his own life. “The members will always care about you.”
“I know.” Jisung really does. And yet it’s digging into his side, gilded and razor-sharp: the selfish, irrational urge to keep Minho as close as he can, to share the same walk home, to follow the same patterns until they’re old and decrepit, until they’re six feet underground, even after that.
(Or, the one where Jisung is not coping well with the realization that he and Minho will eventually go their separate ways.)

Summary
Lee Minho, being Jisung’s biggest enigma, is the reason Jisung is working all night in the studio on Thursday. He had told himself he will lay off the parties until he makes good progress in his project at least, but when Minho came into their apartment with birthday party invitations -like actual printed physical ones on colorful paper with birthday cake design and cute cat stickers- Jisung couldn’t help but say he’ll be there
-----
or: A soulmates au where Jisung slowly starts discovering his skin is matching Minho's, who has always been low-key scary and high-key unreadable to Jisung.

Summary
With every brush of his hand, every word he says to charm Jisung’s dad, the way he holds Jisung and the eagerness to spend time together, it gets harder to remember that it’s all just for show. And Jisung hates himself for it, he really does, because that thought he keeps pushing into the abyss of his mind resurfaces every time, empowered by the flame in Minho’s eyes when he looks at Jisung.
(One drunken night leads Jisung to release songs he wrote for people he’s had crushes on throughout his life, earning him confrontations and feelings he has never been ready for.)

Summary
"My daughter wants you to go trick-or-treating with us."
"Excuse me?" Minho stared at Jisung in bewilderment.
"I'm telling you, she's starting to think you're cooler than me, she literally told me your costume ideas were better than mine," Jisung huffed dramatically.

Summary
“So,” Minho began, “I’m guessing you’re here because you left something behind?”
Jisung gulped down his mouthful of coffee. “Oh! Right, I must seem like a weirdo for coming by unannounced like this.” Something told him that his next words would only reinforce the perception. “Are you looking for a roommate?”

Or: Suddenly left without a job or home, Jisung is desperate for a place to stay while he gets back on his feet. Luck finds him in the shape of Lee Minho.

Summary
“What do you think you’re doing,” Minho began calmly.
“What does it look like I’m doing,” Jisung said without looking up. “I’m getting ready to go to my next class.”
“You know exactly what I mean.”
“I admit I have a brilliant mind, but I am not, in fact, a mind reader.” Jisung finally met the other’s eyes with a tight smile. “Enlighten me.”
Minho smiled back with a barely concealed impatience despite the evenness in his tone. “I’m not sure if you’re really Felix’s type, you know?” He softened his voice and blinked slowly. “Just putting it out there so you don’t end up wasting your time.”
“How noble of you,” Jisung said while stuffing his laptop into his messenger bag, “but I’d rather let Felix be the judge of that.”
---------
AKA Jisung and Minho are idiots who vie for Felix’s heart while becoming entangled in a game of their own.

Summary
‘Anticipating the end of the world is humanity’s oldest pastime.'
And yet, nobody ever thought it would ever truly happen.
In a world gone to hell, everyone knows that trust is something that you don't hand out to anyone if you want to keep your head on your shoulders. But for Minho and Jisung, despite their differences, giving each other a chance may be the only way that they'll survive and come out on the other side together.

Summary
Minho has had a curse of horrible neighbors for years, and one Han Jisung moving into the apartment next door doesn't change that fact. He makes Minho miserable, from the near-constant stench of weed to a never-ending string of inconveniences. Minho wants nothing to do with him, but a next-door neighbor isn't the easiest thing in the world to avoid, especially when he's so persistent.
Jisung worms his way into Minho's life, for better or for worse - and maybe he's not so awful. Maybe he's exactly what Minho needs.

But as he gazes at Minho, at the stars in his eyes, reflecting the streetlights in the parking lot, he says fuck it. He brought this upon himself and only he is to blame when he can't resist the other's suggestion.
“Okay.”
“Okay?” Minho grins.
Jisung grins back. “Yeah. It's just another night. What could possibly happen?”
Or, Jisung has a high school reunion and needs a hot boyfriend to make his classmates jealous.

lyrics of an improvised love song by orphan_account for melodics

Summary
Minho is behind the counter, taking orders and misspelling names. Since it’s a university, the coffee shop is fairly full, with a constant background noise of people talking.
Then, out of nowhere, the talking stops, and the thing happens, one of those moments where everybody just collectively decides to fall silent, but one unfortunate soul doesn’t get the memo. In specific, a guy with brown hair and a blue t-shirt sighs into the dead quiet, “Dammit, somebody date me.”
There’s a second where the guy doesn’t realize anything is wrong, but then his expression freezes, and he shrinks down in his seat. Minho is amused, embarrassed on his behalf, all normal reactions. And then the impulse kicks in, the urge to pick the most idiotic and unconventional choice just because he can.
“Okay,” Minho replies, and everybody in the room looks at him. “I will.”
[It isn't fake, but it isn't real, either. Until suddenly, it is.]

Summary
Jisung heard a sigh next to him.
“You again.” Minho sounded like he was annoyed just at the sight of him. “What’s the issue?”
Jisung matched his sigh with one of his own. “Constipated,” he said bluntly.
“Any pain?” Minho asked, instincts to help kicking in despite his obvious dislike for Jisung. He nodded. The pharmacist grabbed a product off the shelf and shoved it into his hands.
“This will work within 30 minutes. Shove it up your arse and squeeze. I'm sure you're used to that - having things shoved up your arse.”In which Jisung enjoys dropping by the local pharmacy to hang out with his friend Felix, and swoon over the gorgeous Hyunjin. Then a new pharmacist starts working there, and takes an immediate (and mutual) dislike to him, which complicates his visits, and his life in general.

Summary
He’s about to look away, or he’s telling himself he’s about to look away, when Jisung’s gaze darts over to him. Minho feels himself begin to blush from having been caught staring this time around, but the embarrassment is softened when Jisung smiles quietly—not a smirk or anything that screams he’ll be teasing Minho later on. Just a placid smile that makes Minho’s nonsensical heart miss a beat.
“Hyung.” Minho glances back to Felix who has an eyebrow raised. “You’re staring at Jisung.”
“I’m not,” Minho laughs, “I looked over to see who was at the door, that’s all.”
Felix says nothing more but Minho can read the amusement in his expression so he pulls himself up off of the couch and goes in search of something to drink in the kitchen, hoping to calm down from Felix’s obnoxious insight.
or, changbin’s cousin jisung comes to town and minho maybe learns a thing or two about love.

Summary
“What’s… happening,” mumbles Hyunjin. “Why’s there food for, like. Ten?”
“It’s for them.” Felix nods at Jisung and Minho, seated at the little table beside their stash of takeout.
Hyunjin is silent. Then, “Oh Christ, another one of their stupid contests.”
—
Best friends Jisung and Minho have always had a knack for turning everything into a competition—who can shower faster, who can eat more, who can sooner find a meaningless hookup at a party. It’s when they overstep (or, in Jisung’s case, trip over) the boundary between being friends and more that Jisung finds he cares far less about losing their little games than he does about losing Minho.
