his keurig finishes churning. soonyoung thanks the gods. "what did you do all night?"

"played with horangie. he likes the floating balls."

soonyoung stops blowing on his coffee. "floating balls?"

"yes, the fuzzy ones with feathers."

"they're not supposed to—" he starts, because things don't just float, there's this thing called gravity, but apparently wonwoo has magic hands so it's not worth arguing, especially this early. "you know what? neat."

soonyoung steps forward and puts his laptop on the counter. “my cat was playing with my coffee cup, and my keyboard doesn’t work anymore.” the guy seems to perk up a bit at the “cat” part of the statement. interesting.

he opens the lid but remains stoic, even as he pokes a key with a long finger, then a few more across the keyboard, and coffee oozes around the edges of all of them. “how big was your coffee cup?”

“he has very strong paws,” soonyoung deadpans.

The last thing that Wonwoo expects to come out of spilling a cup of coffee on a pretty stranger is a new boyfriend, but that's how life turns out sometimes. The only thing more unexpected than getting a new boyfriend out of the whole business is the new boyfriend in question's interest in the supernatural, occult, and all things weird. Admittedly it's all a little out of left field for Wonwoo, but that's part of what makes Soonyoung so charming— and besides, whoever said weird was bad? - Or, the one where the only thing Soonyoung likes more than cryptids is Wonwoo.

Soonyoung says that Wonwoo is well on his way to becoming a himbo. Wonwoo doesn't even know what that means.

Soonyoung is a self-admitted helpless romantic, which is fine, until one day at the pet clinic he works in walks Jeon Wonwoo and his damn cat. And then, again. And, again. It makes Soonyoung ask 1) how many cats does this hot stranger have? and 2) how the hell do I get a date with him?

Tired of endless commuting, Wonwoo moves into his college's dorm in third year. When his roommate turns out to be so much of a night owl they can never seem to be home or awake at the same time, the two start communicating through post-it notes left on their fridge.

Gay shenanigans ensue.

it's been a month since wonwoo — human-looking-alien wonwoo — walked into soonyoung's apartment while he was at class. a month since he healed a gash on soonyoung's head. a month since he started wearing soonyoung's clothes and sleeping in soonyoung's bed and remembered his ship crashed so he couldn't go home.

(and then eleven more, aka a year with these fools.)

Look, if Soonyoung wants to have back-breaking sex on a regular basis, that’s none of Wonwoo’s business. After this many broken bed frames, though, he’s starting to think Soonyoung should look into investing in something a little sturdier than a 60,000₩ GRIMSBU from IKEA.

Wonwoo wakes up in a cold sweat—like he normally does—and reaches over to grasp desperately at the left side of his mattress.    It’s cool and empty, and the panic rolls over his body, quick and angry, until he remembers that yes, he is alone. No, this is not abnormal. Unfortunate? Depressing? The opposite of what he wants? Yes, all of those things, but not abnormal.    (or: wonwoo loves soonyoung. soonyoung loves wonwoo. the problem is, wonwoo is stupid.)

kwon soonyoung is sick of being a bad kisser, and jealous that his dumb nerd egghead roommate (otherwise known as 'jeon wonwoo') somehow hooks up with more people than him. there is an obvious solution to this.

Wonwoo shouldn’t give a single fuck that Soonyoung is here grinding up on some other guy, because they’re not dating, not exclusively fucking, or even any sort of anything to each other anymore.

And yet here he is, giving his singular fuck. The heart (or the penis, for what it’s worth) was never really much of a rational organ, if the literature is to be believed.

Wonwoo can time-travel to the past; Soonyoung can time-travel to the future. Somehow, they meet in between.

Soonyoung isn't the best nor is he the most pleasant superhero but he tries. Dear god, he fucking tries.

Soonyoung can look at Wonwoo with those eyes, and he’d burn the moon for him if he asked.

The first boy that Soonyoung kisses isn't really a boy at all.

Or: 5 times Soonyoung kisses a boy, and 1 time he falls in love with one that loves him back

Soonyoung persuades Wonwoo to go to the gym with him by telling him that he'll receive a reward if he joins him.

Wonwoo and Soonyoung are neighbors and they find out their cats are boyfriends???

Soonyoung’s hand stills over the food. “Wonwoo,” he asks, voice careful yet stern, as if he’s telling off his interns, “When was the last time you did something for yourself?”

“For myself?” Wonwoo muses out loud.

Wonwoo gets to live with Soonyoung, which is fantastic but for one tiny detail: he's a cat.

There are two such paintings in the world. Both of them are fake.
