Summary
There was an alpha shortage, and as much as Donghyuck rejected the rituals put in place by the pack elders, he couldn’t deny science—omegas needed alphas.
It’d been years since Donghyuck participated in a Chase. If it were up to him, he’d never do one again.
Thankfully, things weren’t up to him.

Summary
There was a certain fragility in sharing a drink, a cobweb spun from fishing line. He didn't want to be the first to ask what was happening. And, even though he was in Jaemin's house and drinking Jaemin's liquor, he knew Jaemin wouldn't be the first to say anything.
Chenle would stare at his sleeping form, his broad back and shoulders, and wish he would say something. Anything. But it would never come. Jaemin was the type of person to overshare simplistic details of himself and conceal what truly made him tick.
Or: Jaemin and Chenle start hanging out together outside of work and Chenle doesn't know what it means.

Summary
“Everyone knows you and Jaemin are…” Donghyuck waves a hand around in an obnoxious pretense of finding the right words. “Different.”
“Different.” Renjun’s echo is a faint thing, lost in his confusion. Donghyuck moves and the sheets rustle with his movement. Renjun’s throat feels awfully dry when he speaks again. “What’s different?”
“Oh, you know,” Donghyuck says loosely. “Just different.”
“I don’t know,” Renjun says defensively.
“He gets you,” Donghyuck says, like it’s the easiest concept ever. “And you get him.”
He says it as if it’s a given. Something guaranteed without a doubt: The Earth is round. Seasons come and go. Renjun and Jaemin just get each other.

Summary
“You bought a cat, Jaemin,” he says. “Why?”
Jaemin grins, slow and steady. His eyes gleam. “I did. She’s just the most adorable little thing, Injunnie. Isn’t she just like milk—?”“—you hate milk—”
“—and we’re not really getting any younger, Injun-ah.”
Renjun is aghast. “We’re twenty-five, Jaemin—”
“Jisung’s friend even gave me a discount! And she showed me the photos of her mother and in a few weeks Luna’s grey fur will start to come in—and it’s like practice for when we have a child!”
Alternatively: Five things that change in Jaemin and Renjun's routine when Jaemin adopts a cat. (Plus the temporary change that Jaemin wasn't supposed to find out about).

Summary
It’s been one year since they hooked up, one year of sporadic text messages, one year of Renjun telling himself whatever he and Chenle have is completely casual. Except it doesn’t really feel that casual when Renjun sends Chenle his flight details now, or when Chenle asks where he’s staying. When Chenle replies that he’s just booked a room in the same hotel, on the same floor, Renjun wonders if that’s Chenle’s way of saying, I want to see you too.

Chenle: Just so you know I’m not gay or anything
“What the hell?” Renjun repeats. A laugh tumbles out of him unplanned. He can’t believe his eyes right now.
Not gay. Not gay. On fucking Trigger the fever.

or: Renjun matches with a straight guy on an app designed for gay men. Things only get weirder from there.

Summary
“Lucky you,” Jeno says, inching closer at the same time as Chenle props himself up on his elbows. The candy has started to feel sticky in his hand, softened by the warmth of his fingertips, yet he still manages to almost drop it twice while raising it to Chenle’s closed mouth and pressing it to the pout of his lips. “Alright, open up for me.”

Jisung has come to find out that he’s terrible at learning how to do—how to do anything, really.
Maybe that’s why he doesn’t learn that most people don’t fall in love with two people at the same time.

Summary
They don’t have to sit on a bed, naked knees pressing together to carry this through, but Guan Shan doesn’t move. He remains there, back stiff in apprehension yet slightly leaning into He Tian’s careful gaze, into his touch, hands curled to fists over his thighs. He Tian’s too big, he must have a gravitational pull, that must be why Guan Shan can’t fucking seem to keep him at arm’s length. It’s science.
Or a deeper dive into the piercing scene.

Summary
He Tian acts in moments.
One moment he’s here, the next he’s there. One moment he’s kind, the next he’s sly. One moment he’s cuffed, the next he has Guan Shan’s jaw in a grip and a look in his eye that sharpens with a breathy thank you on Guan Shan’s lips. And it sounds nothing like gratitude but rather something more heated, more urgent, and no, it’s not gratitude — it’s a prelude.
Thank you, it says, for what you’re about to give me.
(post-chapter 438 - the omitted kiss scene)

Jeno thinks it’s very convenient that his apartment has an amazing(ly cheap) heating system. Not because winters have been getting colder lately, but because the one in his neighbor’s apartment is utterly shitty, and really, he’s just worried the guy will get frostbite.
