Summary
Kim Taehyung has a love-hate relationshop with his job. It's part of his routine so he doesn't really mind it.
He's used to manuscripts coming in at irregular times, pretty outrageous requests from authors and his boss. What he's not used to, is the new author, Jeon Jeongguk, author of too many best selling novels and two movie adaptions. And Jeongguk brings back too many memories he doesn't want to remember.
The worst part? He's his editor.

Summary
She thinks maybe they were always meant to end up this way, a version of their own tragic selves where they take and take and take and never give.
Or maybe, even worse, they were written in the stars, he, shrouded in the darkness and she, a child of the light, despite circumstance, only meeting during eclipses that send the world tilting in darkness.
(They always seem so apt in destroying one another, no matter how accidental.)

Summary
What if there was a magical shortcut to success? A way to gain fame and fortune beyond your wildest dreams? To raise your STR, DEX, CHA, LUK and INT to superhuman levels? Once upon a time, you could jump into a dungeon with nothing but a sword and emerge as a hero with the wealth of a king and the power of a demigod.
All it took was a couple handfuls of dust.
It's almost too bad no one's seen a monster in a thousand years, huh?
('Do you think an entire race can change, if they just try?' Sans still asks, even if the answer has already been carved into his bones and written in his dust a thousand times. It's pointless, he knows, but NPCs have always been doomed to repeat dialogue.)

Summary
Ben Solo and General Hux have landed on Hux's home planet of Arkanis. The Academy is massive, operational and producing young First Order officers and troopers by the legion. There they meet with the old guard, Colonels and Captains of the Imperial Army who have been turned into aged professors, who knew Lord Vader and fought alongside Grand Admiral Thrawn. It's apparent that while the Alliance was busy raising a new government the First Order was raising armies.
And then Ben looks to Arrik and asks to see more, asks what happened at Arkanis during his time as child, a cadet, a young officer. Ben Solo wants to understand Arrik Hux, every part of him. Hux knows that Ben will leave soon to train with the Knights of Ren, and he knows that he has to tie the man to him, or lose him to Snoke.
(Or the AU where Ben doesn't go dark side as a teenager, becomes a smuggler, and Hux corrupts him instead. Part 3.)

Soulmarks are normal.
Seeing your partner's emotions in your soulmark is normal.
People having non-matching soulmarks are normal, so seeing nothing but black in your soulmark is also very, very normal (you think).
What's not normal is the rainbow flowing in your soulmark, and you're not sure how you're supposed to react to this kind of thing.
Your soulmate didn't even exist, right?
...Right?
❀ ❀ ❀ ❀
CHYC is based around finding self-worth, self-acceptance, soulmates, and lots of AUs.
Lots.
Of AUs. -

Summary
“There was no way you could’ve lit this fire...not with how long we’ve been here and how high it is...”
The boy looked up at him under his lashes and shook his head, “I didn’t.”
“Then who did?”
“The house did, of course.”
“The house?” Viktor felt his eyebrows raise in surprise. This guy had to be a little delirious. Maybe bringing him to the fire would be the wrong choice, especially if he had a fever.
“Yes, The house.” As if he could hear Viktor’s thoughts, the boy rose to his feet and shuffled closer to the fire, looking around the room, “The house is alive.”Based off the 1978 Hardy Boys episode “The House on Possessed Hill"

Summary
Eren learned to play violin from his mother, showing promise at a young age. Not as much progress at his sister, however, who turned out to be nothing less than a child prodigy once she joined the Jaeger family. Now, even as he works to complete his junior year as a music major at the University of Trost, Eren still can't seem to escape Mikasa's shadow.
Music became Levi's escape during high school, when all he had to look forward to at home was his uncle's neglect and illegal business deals. When he meets two freaks, Hanji and Mike, who practically drag him into playing in their band, Levi discovers he has an incredible natural talent. If No Name's success continues, he can say goodbye to the life Kenny planned for him for good.
What neither of them can plan for, however, is exactly what happens, and it's all because of goddamn poor road maintenance! -

Or: if Brian and Pat and Simone moved a seat to their left.

Summary
Hyunjin knew he was pretty. Not only was he pretty, but people did what he asked because of it. Sure, it bothered him a little, because there was so much more to him than just his appearance, but he would take what he could.
After a horrifying accident, Hyunjin realizes there's more to the situation. He realizes that he has a TIR- a Traumatic Induced Response. He had powers, from a trauma he couldn't remember happening.
Spending a year mute, Hyunjin wonders if going to college is even worth it anymore. It wasn't until a boy with disarmingly bright eyes sat next to him and rambled his ear off that Hyunjin began to think maybe - just maybe - there was something worth living for.
