prospective menu for the rest of 2021

fic (wips of some substance)
nahyuck — canonverse pwp
  • sequel to keep saying you're a freak
  • has been like 10 words away from completion for a month now
  • i really need to post this like .this week lmao. praying for writeful energies soon >__<
jaemjen — nominfest 🙂

jaemjen — model & makeup artist au
  • angst w a happy ending (i think) + sneak peek here
  • probably the longest thing i've ever written and it's been sitting at ummmm 80% done for about half a year now. this one is just... um. i have the intense need to see jaemin at his loneliest and lowest most miserable when he's also most beautiful and at the top and this is that fic. jeno as his emotional support bickering partner turned fwb turned ???? gary i love ambiguous relationships
  • a lot of jet-setting and unhealthy coping mechanisms and picturesque backdrops for empty double-meaning conversations. um hopefully i get it out sometime this year...
jaemjen — canonverse fwb au
  • based on (tinhatty) battle trip lore
  • jaemin comes back from hiatus w/ the chilling realization he's in love w/ jeno >> they sleep together >> things get awkward/awk/distant bc jm crippling fear of being known/found out/vulnerable on main >> jaemjen get slated to do another season of battle trip and jm has to navigate the aftermath of his actions
  • tbh i think the snippet explains the vibes better than i do
jaemjen — rival asmr youtubers au
  • college au-ish
  • i have literally had this one in the works for ages but also that could be said for almost all of the wips i have on this list. the idea IS this crack_taken_seriously, smutty thing that i've wanted to do for the longest time.
  • premise is that jeno's an asmr artist who discovers rival nana asmr who.. jeno doesn't even think is all that until... he finds jaemin's onlyfans. kinda want to explore/expose jeno's not so secretly petty side like i know we all know even when he's flawed he's perfect but petty jeno -> h^rny jeno something that can be so personal
jaemren — rule 63 rj college au pwp
  • based off of this tumblr post
  • fem!renjun + business major frat douchebag jaemin >:)
  • explicit, just shameless pwp, with rj typical repression, snippet here <3
luwin — canonverse, bbb fic
  • set during their 2021 china trip + quarantine, snippet here
  • character study, relationship study, explicit, bbbisms, angst etc, eventual getting together
  • i've always wanted to explore winwin's approach to idolhood and how he gets through it given that this wasn't even something he wanted for himself in the first place + how hard sm pursued him in the first place only to end up treating him like... that.
  • plenty of bleak boyband isms: #sunk cost fallacy, #mixed talent levels, #stop smothering me!, #giving up on asserting personal space boundaries, #keep expecting to encounter your limit on what you'll compromise on and not finding it, #picking up smoking because it's one of maybe 3 addictions that probably won't ruin your career etc, the list goes on
(also ummm 2 forbidden/shameful jhnmk fic that i might post on main if feeling charitable but probably won't. idk feel free to dm for details tho)

wips that are considerably less substantial:
  • (mark)nomin — vampire au where jaemin turns jeno into a baby vampire (something something the img of jeno feeding on jm and not knowing how to control his impulses/needing to be taught) + potential additional sxc mark part where he's their pet human
  • jensung or jaemjen — pomegaverse au (no, not omegaverse) where jeno gets turned into a samoyed and needs affection from a certain someone to turn back (sorry is guy who loves cliches)
  • jaemjen — ya toxic vaguely citt au where jaemin is the killer and jeno is his prey/love interest.. something about jaemin bringing metaphorical or literal dead birds (everyone who has ever wronged jeno) to jeno's doorstep is so. that predatory/prey dynamic. iykyk.
  • jaemren — cherry magic au, corporate setting, curses, renjun as a ~30 year old virgin who can see peoples thoughts by touching them and the only way to get rid of this curse is to lose his virginity. cue jaemin handsome beautifulface Coworker!!!! :D i love it when they are actually coworkers so much.
  • jaemjen -— jm fallen angel / jn angel au based off of this + this art!! basically an excuse to write wingkink 
  • jaemin eats ppl fic — no i will not elaborate
ummmm i literally have a million jmjn wips half-baked ideas tho so i cannot list them all otherwise this post would be 9234823048 words

tinhat central (dw essay to-do list)*these are not in any particular order

na jaemin chaebol theory 🔒 
um. i have been saying i would write this for ages but like honestly at a loss as to what else i can put here that doesn't make me sound deranged and obsessed and also part of it is a little "what are you doing at the devil's sacrament" as per ciel's response to me knowing extreme detail about his watches... ahm... just going to explain this one with i am watch guy (and also car guy, covering my ass in case jaemin suddenly feels an inclination to start a car collection)... and then ik sometimes people get weird about family background speculation/theorizing so. jury is still out on this one. maybe f-locking it is the move, if i do make it...

comprehensive mark complex theory primer/thesis/masterpost
ngl i do feel like i've said all there is to say about this topic but i think for archiving purposes i will compile / streamline everything i've written about each dreamie's mark complex (or lack thereof in jisung's case) in a more digestible manner? not that anything i say makes sense ever but i just think it is important to make known that jaemin's mark complex is different from everybody else's. and that jisung is perfect bc he will never have markitis.

nct dream omegaverse designations 
or fun! it's My Opinion. which is the correct opinion ofc. as guy who isn't even into omegaverse That Much, it's funny to dedicate an entire post to it but if there's one thing i like doing it's having opinions on things so.

possible drm 0-1 scale
for fun but also for serious! i am simultaneously being sincere and insincere at all times. well actually i already did this here but i might make a full length dw post and elaborate anyway.

nct government assigned emojis + constructive criticism from experts (the expert being me)
🔒 
this is a powerpoint presentation i made back in may for scholarship! it will probably be friendlocked in dw post form as i have a few ummmmm politically sensitive (mildly hateristic) opinions in it.

overall
so i think that's everything i have plans to do so far! the fest and nahyuck are obviously my top priority rn wrt to fic, but re: other fic.. i'm not extremely confident in how much i can get done by the end of this year. ig setting up a gameplan is still better than nothing...tbh what'll probably end up happening is bouts of hatesprinting interspersed with dw shitposting from a project of choice on my dw essay todo list and then more sprinting.

++as always, welcoming any opinions/thoughts/anything re: any potential project in the comments or on twt or cc ♡
