Author’s Summary: The universe was kind. When a soul reached the age of eighteen, they would remain so until they were reunited with their soulmate, and had the means of staying together. And so, people were happy, and souls were made more content each time they reincarnated, and all was well.
However, some, like a certain Kim Mingyu, took advantage of this kindness, and used the ability of reincarnation to extend their lives at the expense of their soulmate.
But Jeon Wonwoo has had enough.
Au: Soulmates!au Reincarnation!au
Notes: Romance. THIS IS SO COOL.
“Kill me so you’ll live for a long time. You could look after your family. You’ll have to look after mine too though. But you can just wait until you meet me again, be with me then. It’s all the same. It’ll still be me. Or if it’s too early, if you still need more time, start it again. Kill them. Giv yourself more time.”

Author’s Summary: Their lives were a game of truth and dare in which Mingyu and Wonwoo both always chose dare. Everything was fair in love and war, which hereby undeniably happened to be the same thing. Having overlooked analyzing the consequences, no, rather downplaying the consequences, oblivious to their true magnitude, what starts as a playful 'quit playing games with my heart' evolves into 'you smashed my heart into smithereens'.
Au: Painter!Mingyu Waiter!Wonwoo
Notes: Romance. Angst.
“When you were breaking up with me … that was something. But when I woke up to find… to find you like that,” a painful smile shaded his face, “that was on a whole new level, a category of its own, a new definition of pain.”
“It was a time when I could literally & by all aspects of the word hear my heart break. I could feel it snapping as it was no longer the vital organ it once had been; as if it could easily be dislocated, easily torn into pieces. I knew that time was coming, I thought I was ready”
“I can’t love you within the boundaries of reason. It’s overwhelming and it’s consuming my every bone. I have always thought it’s an exaggeration to feel this overpowered by a feeling, as if a stronger entity has taken over. I have found in you everything I lost before.”

Author’s Summary: It’s the way they hold each other’s stare through half-lidded eyes, gazing so fondly, that’s been pulling Mingyu closer to Wonwoo’s lips without realizing so.
And with such intense veil of intimacy hovering over them once again, the first thing Mingyu does is close the little distance in between to kiss Wonwoo with the gentle pressure of his mushy lips, motivated by that sheer affection, meanwhile his love for him accelerates his heartbeats and powers up his libido.
The same happens for Wonwoo, it doesn’t take him much to get in the mood again. That way they still gaze into each other through half-lidded eyes, never breaking away, as they caress each other with their lips rounding against the other’s…
That’s what shifts the mood so quickly for Wonwoo, with Mingyu kissing awake the tingles from arousal everywhere on his body, bringing back the fresh memory of their earlier session he so consciously tried to submit into a dormant state.
