Re: [Request] ATEEZ, Seventeen, The Untamed
some oak, some pine, and a handful of norsemen by Acavall
4.6k, rated T+, jeongcheol, non-famous au where shenanigans happen in an ikea
content warnings: none
notes: this is just such a goofy feel-good fic, and i feel like having one of those on hand around the holidays is a necessity. it's short enough to read in a single bite and laugh out loud funny, and it was written many years ago now but has remained in a soft spot in my heart.

this town is a song about you by notspring
12.4k, rated M+, gyuhan, non-fanous au where jeonghan sweet talks his way into visiting mingyu's family as his "boyfriend" when they are in fact coworkers and friends with benefits
content warnings: none listed, implications of some tender/sad family stuff that is never fully gotten into
notes: no svt rec list is complete without notspring. this melancholy character study is imo a pitch perfect rendering of this dynamic, complete with wry goofs, unexpected sweetness, relentless bickering, and many shades of things unspoken. i return to this one every so often and think about it all the time.

autumn leaves by sunwalkr
16k, rated m+, jeongcheol, non-famous breakup makeup that is the pinnacle of delicious angst with a satisfying and earned happy ending
content warnings: none
notes: i could wax poetic about this one forever! it was a gift for me so is obviously to my tastes but i think everyone should read it. it's decidedly a character and relationship study that does a lot of beautiful internal work without sacrificing the development of relationships the main characters have with other people. super tender and heartfelt story.

Bright Enough to Light Up Any Dark by averytree
44k, rated m+, gyuhancheol, au set in the world of the scholomance series (readable without knowing the books, it's a magic boarding school au)
content warnings: genre-typical (fantasy) violence, peril, open but hopeful ending
notes: obviously you need a longer fic with meaty plot for the wintertime too! i love this ot3 and i do think this is a mingyu of all time in fic but the dynamic in general is just delicious. drama, hurt/comfort, a big ensemble cast, monster hunting, action/adventure, bedside love confessions...this fic has it all!

+ a bonus skz fic featuring felix!
you should be (loving someone) by sharpa
5.1k, rated t+, chanlix, canonverse fic with agonizingly mutual pining and discussion of imaginary futures together
content warnings: none
notes: [drags hands down my face] my favorite brand of chanlix is when the feelings are there and they're obvious but they're still getting in their own way. this is an incisive peek into the very best of that dynamic. late night walks and confessions under the stars that can't mean anything! who doesn't love that! (there is a hopeful ending here i promise)
