    Summary

    “Don’t you live in the dorms like everyone else?”

    “I do,” Renjun grumbles through his teeth in a way that clearly indicated he was t-minus 5 seconds away from a full-blown tantrum. “I just can’t stand the parties. It’s so loud and insensitively grating and messy, like, all the fucking time.”

    “What parties?”

    “You know… the parties. The ones Na Jaemin throws.”

    “Who?”

    “Na Jaemin.”

    Jaemin’s grin never falters for a second. He doesn’t bat an eye.

    “Never heard of him.”

    (it’s 2 in the morning and renjun and jaemin are stuck in an elevator. the maintenance guy won’t come until 6.)

    Summary

    “Went back to Canada. Lived with my mom and sister. Tried to forget.” When Matthew looks up, Gunwook sees in his eyes something so familiar and complicated that his breath stops.

    “And did you?” asks Gunwook, swallowing. “Forget?”

    Matthew gives him a wry, sad smile. “No,” he says, soft. “I didn’t.”

    ────

    Three years ago, Gunwook's best friend and only sanctuary disappeared without notice. When Gunwook's finished with military service, he decides to go back to his rural childhood home, but finds Matthew there waiting for him.

    Cue domestic rural life, though Gunwook's memories are threatening to shatter the peace. (Also, the heating breaks down and there's only one bed, etcetera, etcetera.)

    Summary

    “Hyung, what is this?” Sungchan finally chokes out. “How did you find him?”

    “I… well, that’s a dating app,” Jungwoo explains. “So I didn’t find him, he just… came up. Is that him? That’s your Shotaro?”

    Sungchan nods, heart beating so hard he thinks his ribs could break. “It’s him.”

    *✩‧₊

    Or, Sungchan wakes up in an alternate timeline where almost everything is the same, but he and Shotaro have never met. As fate would have it – and with some help from his NCT hyungs, his members, and modern technology – they find each other again.

    Summary

    Two months after RIIZE disbands, Shotaro packs up everything he wants to keep into four oversized suitcases, drops the rest off at a local charity, and heads to the airport. There’s a one-way ticket back to Tokyo with his name on it, the lack of a return trip final in the way many things aren’t these days.

    He doesn’t expect anyone to send him off.
