• Happy Home
    • Kun is doing just fine on his own. Being a single father at age twenty-one isn't easy, but he has the lines of his life clearly drawn. That is, until Ten comes in and blurs them all.
  • is love completely off the table?
    • Kun lets out a wet chuckle, “I’m sorry if things got way too emotional.” Ten laughs softly, “don’t be silly, of course things would get emotional. I’m letting the love of my life walk out of our home in a few, don’t be fucking rude, of course I’m crying my eyes out.”
  • birds on a wire
    • Ten doesn’t want a soulmate and he won’t accept them if he meets them, so it would be best if he could remove his soulmate mark entirely. That's where Kun comes in.
  • Met you at Ten
    • Kun was comfortable, tired and overworked, but comfortable. He was in his dream college and had a decent job at the cafe to keep him afloat. Although his friends wished he'd get out more, Kun was content with focusing on college and work. Then, Ten started visiting the cafe and showed Kun the fun of life outside his comfort zone.
  • friday the purr-teenth
    • Kun knows something is up when he walks into the apartment and it's silent.
  • From Home
    • “This is the last picture I have of him.” Ten says. He can’t make eye contact with the camera, his eyes trained on the Polaroid in his hand. “This is from the night before he disappeared.” “Yuta gave this to me,” Ten says, tears starting to roll down his cheeks. “He’s the one who took it.” Ten swallows, wiping at his nose before shaking his head. “Sometimes I wonder if this should tell me where he went. Who took him.” October seventeenth is the worst day of Ten’s life.
  • alright, sir!
    • Professor Qian and Professor Li are (obviously) crushing on each other, but none of them seems to be willing to make the first move. Cue the frustrated students who really, really try their best to be their (not-so) little cupids.
  • Forever and Always
    • It always starts with a creak of the door. That’s how Kun knows he’s there.
  • the unseeing eye
    • Ghosts do not exist until they do, and then suddenly they don’t.
  • Steeped in History
    • Time is endless—it’s relative, ever-present, and always tumbling in forward motion. Life is finite for personhood. But for Kun, life in its simplest sense was feckless.
  • electric magnetic
    • What do you do when you meet your ex-boyfriend's ex-boyfriend? You fall in love with them, of course. Ten and Kun would like to disagree.
  • ambrosia
    • Lights shine like stars overhead as Ten enters the hall. Perhaps they are stars, he thinks, stolen from the heavens at the behest of Donghyuck.
  • labyrinth
    • Kun was certain the glimmer in the other boy’s eyes was unrivaled as he looked at him across the table of their tiny booth in this tiny diner. He was blinded by its beauty, too easily enchanted into playing whatever silly game Ten wanted.
  • wrap you in me, my love
    • “I love you, Kun. I want you to trust me the way I trust you,” Ten says. “Believe me, if I could spend every second of the day telling you how beautiful you are and how happy you make me, I would.” Kun’s eyes widen, then close halfway. “Why don’t you?” he whispers.
  • The Tone
    • In which Ten gains a new found respect for the leader of the group, after learning that he has a whole side of him that Ten didn't know about.
  • blooming like dominoes falling
    • The world slowed down for Kun as the most beautiful man he had ever seen passed him by; a cool breeze on a hot summer day.
  • give it a shot
    • “Kun?” “Yeah?” Ten takes a deep breath. “I don’t want to do this anymore.”
  • the godlike kind
    • “Your hair has gone almost white,” he says quietly, brushing the hair away from Kun’s face. He wonders if Kun ever saw this moment, wonders if there was anything he could have done to avoid it. “What happened to you?” Kun smiles sadly, the expression one that Ten remembers better than his own name. “You did.”
  • hell's blessings
    • Kun is a demon hunter traveling across the country killing demons with his team and Ten is a single dad raising three adopted children (read: demons) in a small town
  • Mr Qian and the oh-so-absolutely flirtatious Mr Lee
    • Qian Kun took up his best friend Lucas’s proposition to get a male secretary to put a stop to all the vulture-like ladies from sending their daughters to him. Little did he know that the man Lucas suggested would have turned his world around.
  • Aim and Shoot
    • Ten heard nothing but the leaves rustling in the wind, the cold air cutting through the broken glass windows. The first snowfall hadn’t stuck to the ground, like Ten had hoped it wouldn’t, but the small, abandoned coffee shop was getting too cold for him to stay, for him to camp out. After being separated from his group, Ten doesn't lose hope to find them again. He stumbles upon an abandoned hotel and hopes to survive.
  • supernova beat
    • It’s hard not to mess up his notes when he’s a lot more interested in the dancer pirouetting around the room than the instrument he’s trying to play.
  • Elbow Rub
    • Qian Kun has bumped into you! the app announced, and Ten tapped the notification on impulse.
  • in a crowd of thousands i'd find you again
    • He wakes, face wet with tears and sweat, panting heavily. Disorientation is his guide into the real world, and he whips his head around and around to check for the voices, for any proof that they were here for his mind’s torture, but there are none, only a figure running towards him in obvious fear and outrage. “TEN!” the figure calls, and disorientation goes, just like Ten’s family, but Kun approaches in their stead, a pretty frown on his pretty face etched with pretty concern.
  • You have weird taste
    • “It’s like”—Ten licked his lips again—“honey. And peanut butter… God, I hate it when my soulmate does this! The fruit is bad enough, but honey and peanut butter? Just choose one! What the hell?!” A flood of comments filled the livestream. Ugh, my soulmate does that too, or Hey, it's a really good combo! Kun’s chewing slowed.
  • come and find me
    • Ten comes home.
  • for you
    • Every time Kun sees him is as impressive as the last.
  • Give the Dirt a Little Room
    • Having Ten’s lips around his fingers anointed him with a sense of wholeness he hadn’t experienced since before the Accident. It was careless of Kun, but it was the most invigorated he had felt in months.
  • the give and take
    • The more Kun knows Ten, the more he realizes he doesn’t know much about him at all.
  • birds on a wire
    • Ten doesn’t want a soulmate and he won’t accept them if he meets them, so it would be best if he could remove his soulmate mark entirely. That's where Kun comes in.
  • Trading Favours
    • What was it they said about Cinderella? Something about three balls and a lost shoe.
  • crease and fold
    • The premise is simple: the technicians are attempting to put a human mind in an electronic body.
  • if you feel this too
    • Ten borrows the same pair of black pyjamas as he always does, and snuggles close to Kun under the blankets, a bit closer than he normally does and a bit too close for comfort. Kun doesn’t know if he’s getting so hot from the shared body heat, or simply because it’s Ten. (“It’s me,” Ten would probably say if he asked. “I’m very hot, I hear that a lot,” and he would grin and wink and maybe snuggle even closer. Kun is not going to ask.)
  • new traditions
    • Ten and Kun have never really seen eye to eye when it comes to the importance of holiday themed decorations.
  • you are my favorite everything
    • Ten and Kun meet during the perfect summer.
  • left to the wolves
    • There was a pause, and he heard the sound of Kun moving, his coat crumpling as he extended his arm to him. Not his arm, his wrist. Ten observed it for a second. He took Kun's wrist between dainty fingers. He slowly brought it to his nose and breathed in. The warmest, most delicious feeling spread through him, and his entire body relaxed. He brought the wrist closer and took in Kun's smell again, warm and spicy, basking in the sense of relief that took over him. He let the wrist go. He turned to Kun, who was observing him raptly. His eyes were dark, his gaze heavy as he watched Ten. He cleared his throat suddenly, righting himself, pretending that the moment hadn't just happened. He did not look at him when he said, "I thought I could smell it on you, but I wasn't sure." Ten did not move, still a little bit dizzy, still a little bit high off Kun's pheromones. "Smell what?" "Your pre-heat."
  • to the moon and back
    • “Hey, have you seen Ten?” Kun asked Johnny for the third time that night.
  • Timestamps
    • Kun and Ten sext on the regular. Do they talk about it outside of the chat window? No. Of course not.
  • lock in your love
    • Ten doesn’t lean on language first, the way Kun does. Ten’s heart decides first, and the words come after. So it was important that Kun be intentional.
  • Blood to Call
    • Ten's tired. He has a routine, now. Find the object. Take the client's money. Deal with his brat of a progeny. Drink his synth. Watch Coupling for the hundredth time. It works for him. Until one day, it doesn't.
  • Within White Walls
    • Kun knows that he comes here voluntarily, that he has no right to complain about the bare white walls that surround him every time he enters the building, but he can’t help but feel dreadful as he stares at the white walls, watching the children run around in their colorful pajamas. Kun volunteers in a hospital, entertaining the children with his magic tricks and games. In that hospital he meets Ten, a man in a beanie that doesn't know better than the hospital walls that have surrounded him all his life.
  • Let me come along
    • Ten's son gets sick.
  • Fakers
    • Where Kun’s manager thinks the perfect way for him to get exposure is by having a pretty boy on his arm.
  • easy
    • Kun picks Ten up from his studio and brings him home to love him.
  • ascent
    • Ten falls off the wall. Grounded by his injury, he learns to see things from a different perspective as he recovers.
  • Blood to Call
    • Ten's tired. He has a routine, now. Find the object. Take the client's money. Deal with his brat of a progeny. Drink his synth. Watch Coupling for the hundredth time. It works for him. Until one day, it doesn't.
  • crazy over you
    • The photo of Kun's next mark was a flattering one.
  • untitled imperfect lovers
    • In which Ten and Kun share a wall and a heart breaking secret.
  • dig deeper, you're a keeper
    • Ten gets fed up with Kun's Jay Chou obsession and decides to play a game to get back at him. Ten's crush has nothing to do with it.
  • change in routine
    • “Hey,” Kun said gently, in the voice he typically used when one of their cats was sleeping on his arm. “Hey, how do you feel?” “Hi, Ken,” Ten mumbled. “Kun,” Kun said, eyes going wide. “I’m Kun
  • sorry about the mess
    • Ten shows up at the karaoke bar for Johnny’s birthday party and figures he’ll make his rounds, stay for a drink or two, then head back to sleep through most of tomorrow. The night does not go the way he plans.
  • a million cups
    • It’s something Kun’s found himself doing a lot— automatically doing things for Ten, just because. Because he wants to, because it feels right. It's automatic, like breathing, or blinking.
  • the director
    • Ten approaches Kun with a proposition.
  • the sweet stuff
    • Kun smoothly rolled them over in bed with a light grunt, hovering over Ten on his elbows and looking down into Ten’s glittering gaze. “Hubba hubba,” Ten snickered. “Quiet,” Kun laughed. “Don’t distract me.”
  • i might want it
    • Those are the exact words he uses. I kinda want to suck your dick. He kinda wants to suck Ten’s dick. Not wholeheartedly, just kinda. Which should already be an affront in itself (nobody should just kinda want Ten). Kun’s face is placid like he hasn’t got a care in the world. As if he’s not propositioning someone he’s never bothered to interact with.
  • symptom of your touch
    • Whenever Ten helps Kun put on an earring, all Kun can think about is how much he wants to kiss him.
  • shower time sonnets
    • Now, as an adult with a bit more structure and free time in his day, he could enjoy the more simple pleasures of life. Like showering with his neighbour. Well…not exactly with him, since Ten’s never actually met his neighbour. All he knows is that he has the voice of a goddamn angel.
  • Stay
    • The morning before Ten’s flight to China, Kun and Ten get to cuddle for one last time.
  • 6:54 AM
    • Of new promises and beginnings. Happy New Year, Kun and Ten.
  • distance
    • Kun was not worried about the distance or time. They’d made it through Ten’s SuperM schedules, after all, and this was not very different. But today was different. Today, Ten’s video was not on.
  • clouds
    • He was ready. But that was until one boy with a smile brighter than the sun greeted him one day.
  • again from here on
    • "Thank you for bringing us together, my sun."
  • Let me come along
    • Ten's son gets sick.
  • love scene.
    • When Ten impulsively goes after his brother's crush trying to play cupid, he ends up wanting to adopt a cat. He didn't know that he would have to be interviewed by the most handsome man he had ever seen. or Where Ten wonders if every veterinarian is as dazzling as Kun.
  • Workday Cuddles
    • Kun's in the middle of work when Ten decides it's time for cuddles.
  • Pandora's Box
    • It wouldn’t take long this time, Kun thought.
  • the start of you
    • He thought he’d be out of tears by now. But here he is, shedding some more over his cats’ empty bowls, hating himself and missing Kun immeasurably.
  • Cupid's Chokehold
    • Rumour has it that to make it onto SMU's dance team, you have to get into the good graces of not only the team captain Ten Lee, but also his best friend. Unaware of this, Kun wonders why he's suddenly surrounded by freshmen bending over backwards to do him favours. Ten is not amused.

---------------------------------- [NOT KUNTEN] Forget Me Not [https://archiveofourown.org/works/23645752]

    • Jaehyun is still looking at him. Softly, he brings up Ten’s hand and feels the back of it against his cheek. Closing his eyes he lets out a sigh, his breath ghosting over Ten’s skin. A different kind of warmth spreads inside Ten as he watches him. “You found me,” he starts and his tone is endearing. He feels the medicine taking over slowly. Opening his eyes, Jaehyun looks back at him with a gentle smile on his lips. He squeezes his hand in his before speaking, “You were not easy to track.”
