my main fandoms are: ateez and the marauders <3

my fav ships are: woosan, matz, ot8 poly, jegulus, pandalily, wolfstar, rosekiller, dorlene, and ronance (robin x nancy)

ships i still like but don’t read as often: yungi, jongsang, yunwoo, topaz, steddie, destiel, marylily, and probably more that i’m forgetting

i don’t have a ton of fandom friends irl, so i wanted to share my favorite fics on here! because why not?

asks and stuff are open! i’m hoping to maybe post my favorite fic from each day, or maybe multiple! right now, i’m reading a ton of ateez, but if i need some comfort, i’ll read marauders!

summary: "Due to past abuse, Song Mingi lost the ability to smell before he met his mates. Despite the missing sense, daily life was largely unaffected. But even still, Mingi couldn’t help but feel a bit like an outsider even among his mates because he couldn’t participate in an important part of pack bonding.

The rest of Mingi’s pack of course noticed the alpha feeling left out and came up with a plan to share their scents in a way that Mingi could finally experience them. How fortunate all of their scents could be formed into a food everyone can enjoy."

From the author's description:

"Hongjoong knows that he’s expected to make sacrifices if he was desperate enough to add someone into the mix. But he’s stubborn and Hyunmin and his job are the two things you’d have to pry from his cold dead fingers. In the end, Hongjoong is a simple man. He’s a father, then an artist. How could he ever have room for anything else if he’s expected to give up the things that matter to him the most?
