Summary
Then Yoongi sees it. A flash of red in his peripheral vision. He turns toward it and it’s gone. But then he sees it again and when he whips his head over, it doesn’t disappear. And then he can’t stop seeing it.
Red. Everywhere. Long, filamentous tangles of it. Yoongi can’t possibly follow each strand but he manages to focus on one, stretching toward his left hand, winding around his pinky finger. He tugs and the string stretches, distorting the tangle and from the corner of his eye he sees Jimin list over, throwing out his hands to brace himself.
Oh. Oh.
“The red string,” he mutters under his breath.
June. Festa. He mentioned getting a red string group tattoo but Jimin shot him down, telling him it was about romantic love.
Joke’s on him now because it’s real. And happening to all of them, apparently.Series

"So it's a bet?" Jiang Cheng said. "Dance the showcase if you get him, fancy coffee machine if you don't?"
Wei Wuxian considered the machine. "Fine. You're on. I want it in red."
"Don't start planning your caffeine overdose yet."
"It's in the bag," Wei Wuxian said cheerfully. "There's no way they'll match me with someone like Lan Wangji."
Teaching Lan Wangji to dance in front of the nation for twelve weeks, how hard can that be? Wei Wuxian is about to find out.Series

“Yiling Patriarch,” he begins, and Wei Wuxian’s face clouds.
“Please. That’s not – you know me, Zewu-jun. What’s wrong? Why are you here?” He walks over and Lan Xichen sees he has no weapon, not even his flute. He came to meet Wangji unarmed, defenseless. With a smile on his face.
“I’m here to ask for your help. It’s Wangji. He’s ill.”

Summary
“I need to ask you something and I need you to be honest. Not for me. But for your own sake.”
Hoseok waited for the bomb to drop, already preparing his all too fragile heart.
Jin looked at him, unwavering, unmoving, something about this expression that he had on his face making him truly look like the oldest member of Bangtan, a rare sight to his usually playful personality - “Was it ever just sex, or was there always something more to it?”

But it's impossible to recreate the past, and the three of them will have to negotiate the years they've spent apart, Yoongi's asexuality, and the uncertainty of the future as they rediscover how to be together.

Summary
In retrospect, the body shots are a bad idea.
In the moment, they’re the best idea Namjoon has ever had.
Which is how Hoseok ends up sprawled on a couch with a lime between his teeth, salt sprinkled along his exposed clavicle, and Yoongi hovering over him, shot of tequila in one shaky hand and his heart in his throat.

Summary
Years down the road, after the members had to go their separate ways, Agust D is hoping to overcome months of writer's block. A collaboration with Jimin who is, by now, an internationally acclaimed singer, model and dancer seems like a smart move. However, a few weeks in New York turn into something more as the two rekindle not only their friendship but also slowly uncover something new.
"I promised I'd write you a song, didn't I?"

Bookmarker's Notes
"There is no pressure between them, no urgency, just a peculiar kind of familiarity that has nothing to do with sex but that sits deeper than their skin, than their bones. They know each other and that is, perhaps, what Yoongi had been missing in previous partners.
This, however, is like uncovering a new chapter in a well-loved book."
"And anyway, how do you reduce over a dozen years of companionship, of shared dreams and fears and strengths, to only a handful of fancy words? Life doesn't work like that. Love doesn't work like that."

Summary
There is magic in the world, but for years Jungkook has shied away from his gift. (It's intrusive, unwelcome, dangerous.) Now, he's in New York City, battling loneliness and a college course he hates. Until on one particularly bad day, he turns down a side street in East Village and his life changes forever.
(Or: six boys run a magical emporium together and Jeon Jungkook is looking for a place to belong.)

Bookmarker's Notes
"Maybe you can’t love without a little bit of fear. Maybe that isn’t a bad thing.
Fear and happiness, the jump, the ocean - the water he can still sometimes feel, inching toward his lungs - and maybe none of it matters, in the long run. Because right now, he is here and Yoongi is here, holding his hand beneath New York street lamps, and he thinks they’re going to make it, in spite of all that water.
And maybe that’s what love is: hope, in spite of fear, that both of you are going to come out the other side of whatever life throws at you with your fingers still laced tight together."
"They’re both afraid and they’re both trying to be brave and they both want this, enough to ache with it."

“You know what?” Wei Ying said. “I think we should be friends.”
“Vulcans do not have friends,” said Lan Zhan. He was staring very determinedly at the screen in front of him.
Wei Ying frowned at him. “That can’t be right.”

Summary
He was the last person Namjoon expected to hear from - thought he was dreaming when he saw the email in his work inbox. It was short and simple, typical Hoseok. Just: We saw what happened. We’re so sorry. If you need get away for awhile, you’re always welcome to come stay with us - JH. He wonders now if Hoseok was surprised when he said yes. If Hoseok only extended the invitation because he didn’t think Namjoon would actually come.
(Or: Namjoon chose a solo career and left Yoongi and Hoseok behind. Seven years later, after being outed by a Korean tabloid, he ends up on their couch in Queens, trying to face an uncertain future. And confront feelings that have persisted for nearly a decade.)

“Last question,” the interviewer said. “You’ve been to Las Vegas a few times now. What’s one thing you haven’t done yet that you really want to do?”
“Get married,” Taehyung said.
Later, at the chapel, Namjoon thought perhaps he should have tried a little harder to talk him out of it.

Summary
As the years pass, Yoongi can’t help himself from reaching out and holding Namjoon’s hand, when the others can’t see him frowning but Yoongi can. He can’t help himself from sprawling across Namjoon’s lap in the little sofa in the studio, when Namjoon looks so tired and so stressed and there’s only two weeks until the deadline on the next track. He can’t help himself from smiling, pleased, when Namjoon crawls into Yoongi’s bed late at night, muttering that he can’t sleep. They move dorms, gain privacy, change roommates, but Namjoon still keeps coming.
++
Namjoon and Yoongi, through seven years of living together, rely on each other.

Summary
“I got caught up in one of the new demos,” Namjoon replies to Yoongi’s question, a little sheepish. “I was gonna go home, but then I heard you playing through the open door. Is it a new song?” He rubs at one of his eyes as he talks, trying to shake some of his sleepiness away, and the resulting spots in his vision make it difficult to figure out the expression on Yoongi’s face.
“You heard me playing?”
(Namjoon has been working all day, and just wants to go home - or at least he does until he overhears Yoongi working on something new.)
