summary:
The breeze that tore through him upon his re-entry into the Underworld was as bracing as it was welcoming. Yeonjun barely shivered. He was used to it by now, found it comforting after the scorch of the summer months. He closed his eyes, inhaled deep. He could hear Cerberus in the distance, howling to signal his arrival.
When he opened his eyes again, Beomgyu was there. He was smiling.
“Welcome home, Persephone,” he said, and Yeonjun went to him. His moon, his heart. The very bedrock of his soul.
They met in the middle. Yeonjun put his arms around Beomgyu’s waist and shoved his face into his husband’s neck. He took his time to breathe him in. Bergamot oranges, old roses, the sharp starch of fresh gauze.
Yeonjun sighed.
“I’m home.”
(Or: Yeonjun and Beomgyu navigate married life.)
in short: gods/godesses au, established relationship

candice: "this was just so sweet! i'm a big fan of any persephone/hades au, and this was just done so well. it's established relationship as well, and i always like those aus that explore the idea of people navigating through that. author's prose is also amazing as always."
title: us against the sunrise
summary:
“It’s everything you deserve,” Yeonjun mumbles, taking the heat in, and Beomgyu thinks he’s found a use for his abilities already—keeping his love warm, pushed forth by both pure heat and passion and the warmth of coming home. “And you deserve more than anything I could give you anyway.”
(Or: Beomgyu sets things on fire the day of his six months with Yeonjun. Sometimes love is all about impulsive decisions and the boy you've loved throughout it all anyway.)
in short: urban fantasy au, established relationship

summary:
“Hi hyung,” Beomgyu greeted, the smile on his face too radiant for midnight. Yeonjun took a quick look at his face, at the rest of him. He seemed perfectly fine. “You look like shit.”
That made Yeonjun pause. He looked down at himself, at his out-of-sorts uniform and the mud on his boots. The mud was from the trek to the greenhouses when he went to Herbology this afternoon. His uniform was all crooked because Yeonjun couldn’t sit still while studying. But even then, he didn’t look that bad. Not like shit, surely, right?
Usually, he wouldn’t care, he’d just call Beomgyu a knobhead or something and then pull him close to give him a noogie but Yeonjun was tired. And this past afternoon was emotionally taxing enough.
“Not your clothes silly hyung,” Beomgyu piped up again, a funny little smile on his face that meant he saw straight through to Yeonjun’s mind. “You look tired. Hyung looks prettier when he’s well-rested.”
Huh.
(Or: Yeonjun smelled Beomgyu in his Amortentia. Beomgyu accidentally consumed some government-grade Veritaserum. Yeonjun was about to give up on everything.)
in short: hogwarts au, amortentia fic
