    Summary

    They say the stars align for people like 𝐉𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐘𝐮𝐧𝐡𝐨. For people like 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢, they just burn out.
    One was a lawyer’s son with a life planned out ahead. The other was an abused boy with a mind he couldn’t escape.
    𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢 was a sinking ship long before he ran away. He left behind a boy who was heavenly sent and a life he felt he didn’t deserve to touch.
    But the golden boy he left behind is merely a ghost of his parents’ making. No longer allowed to dance, no longer allowed to breathe, 𝐘𝐮𝐧𝐡𝐨 is a puppet in a high-society play—a doll with a heart divinely uninspired and a life already bought, paid for, and hollowed out from the inside.

    Summary

    Mingi has lived a privileged yet uneventful life as the Chief Minister of Ancelstierre's alpha nephew, but one fateful night flips his whole view of the world upside down. He never put much thought into what happened across the Wall in the Old Kingdom, aside from the occasional note of how enchanting yet odd it was- with its magic and superstitions. But after meeting the omega Yunho, he can't seem to keep away- even if there are necromancers and dead things trying to kill him over there.

    Yunho has lived his whole life in the Old Kingdom, taught about the responsibility that rests on his shoulders since the day he was born. The path of the Abhorsen is a lonely one, spending more time with the Dead than the living. It was a fate he had resigned himself to, but after meeting Mingi, something like hope starts to kindle in his chest. But how can he long for something more with someone so misplaced in his world? Especially when he should be focusing on something dark and powerful looming on the horizon, threatening to end both their worlds.

    Summary

    Hongjoong was never meant to sit on the throne, yet the empire now rests in his hands. Beside him stands Prince Consort Park Seonghwa—graceful as silk, steadfast in ways the court fails to see.

    One was made to rule through steel. The other was made to survive through softness.

    But when the palace begins to crack beneath politics, loyalty, and the weight of the crown, will silk and steel be enough to protect an empire destined to fall apart?

    Summary

    The KQ Institute for Troubled Boys would be better named The KQ Institute for Rich Parents to Send Kids They Don’t Want to Parent Anymore. There are many reasons teenagers get dropped off at the concrete prison in the middle of nowhere from September to June, ranging from genuinely troubling behaviour to whatever bullshit excuses parents use because they don't want to parent anymore.
    Eight boys with eight different stories reluctantly starting their junior year at KQ may just find themselves growing closer to their roommates than they ever could have imagined, all while navigating the ups and downs of being a teenager.

    Or:
    The Ateez boarding school AU I have always wanted to write, filled with angst (heed the tags) and healing as the boys grow closer and face the challenges of high school together.
