Title: You Can't Help What You Love
Author: very_never
Word Count: 60K
Group: BTS
Pairing/character: Hoseok/Yoongi
Genre/tags: AU - Coffee Shop; Fluff and Angst; Strangers to Lovers; Idiots in Love
Rating: M
Summary:

Yoongi—cool barista, frustrated rapper, casual badass—is secretly a fan of the Busan Boys, a sweet, sentimental boy band.

Their sudden breakup is devastating.

The guy who walks in to the coffee shop with a Busan Boys pin on his bag is even more devastating.

If only life was as easy as a pop song.

Reason for reccing: This is an amazing AU with such a great Yoongi POV and a Hobi characterization that I don't think I've seen anywhere else. It made me cry but also laugh so hard (Jin, you guys, Jin). The perfect combination of softness and angst and sweetness.


Title: together, wherever you are
Author: pausethestars
Word Count: 27K
Group: BTS
Pairing/character: Jimin/Namjoon
Genre/tags: AU - Non-Famous; AU - Soulmates; Science Fiction; Light Angst with a Happy Ending
Rating: T
Summary:

Librarian Namjoon is content with his quiet little life in a quiet small town. Then Park Jimin arrives, bringing both some much-needed chaos and a love he never knew he needed. The problem? Jimin is an alien temporarily stranded on Earth until he can be rescued. When that rescue comes, will the two of them part forever, or will they take this new love among the stars?

Reason for reccing: The worldbuilding here is spectacular, and the Namjoon characterization is stellar. The author clearly loves books and libraries in a beautiful way. Really great.


Title: pop, lock, & drop it
Author: silklace - podfic by frecklebomb
Word Count: 4K
Group: BTS
Pairing/character: Yoongi/Jin
Genre/tags: Pregnancy Kink, Canon Compliant, Humor
Rating: E
Summary:

Three months after Yoongi kissed him in the middle of their hitherto previously very platonic weekly movie night and two months and two weeks after Seokjin showed up at his studio, wet from the rain, and blew him against his desk with Yoongi’s fingers scrabbling over the keyboard and wires and empty coffee cups and a frankly embarrassing number of snack wrappers behind him, Yoongi shoves a bland looking envelope into Seokjin’s hands in the middle of hair and makeup.

Reason for reccing: Have you ever read an adorable PWP? I feel like this deserves the title if anything does. And the podfic makes it all the cuter, somehow! I love Jin in this. And Yoongi. And yoonjin. It's just so much fun.

Title: we're lucky too tomorrow
Author: scissorghost
Word Count:10K
Group: BTS
Pairing/character: Namjoon/Jungkook
Genre/tags: Magical Realism, Idols, Pining, Truth Serum (but sweet)
Rating: E
Summary:

Before every performance and interview and photoshoot, Namjoon pulls Jungkook aside and presents his face, smiling gently, cheeks plump and dimples standing at attention, for Jungkook to press his fingers into. And every time, Jungkook feels a wash of relief and gratitude and something that he doesn’t know how to describe wash over the surface of his skin.

He knows it’s magic.

He just doesn’t know where to go from here.

Reason for reccing: I couldn't do a rec list without my beloved namkook! I love them best when they're soft, soft, soft for each other, and this delivers in spades. Magic and dimples - you can't go wrong.
