Favorite NCT Ships (+ AUs)
College!AU - Music Performance Major!Taeil and Psychology Major!Johnny
#slow burn #friends with benefits #friends to lovers (etc etc the cliche is real)
Polar opposites; warm, shy, awkward Taeil and dorky, sociable Johnny
Johnny is willing to compensate while Taeil tries to find what he likes and wants in life, Johnny is a good friend
“do you love me?” “i don’t know.” “fair enough.”
Taeil does his best; wants to give Johnny something for being so patient with him
“don’t worry. I love you, I’m doing this for you. You are not obligated to do anything for me. If it turns out you love me too, that’s great. If not, oh well.”
“You’re too good for me.”
“Ah well, my psych grade is flourishing because of you.”
Imperial/Royalty!AU - Noble!Sicheng and Chef!Yuta
Yuta makes Sicheng’s food and always slips in an extra helping of food or an extra dessert
“Yuta! Come back here I saw that extra cup of egg custard!”
Really, Yuta almost worships Sicheng. He’s only really good at cooking, so he puts 100% into making food
Is completely devastated when he’s told Sicheng had sent his food back because it wasn’t good
Doesn’t give up because Yuta is brash and determined and hard working
“Sicheng you should acknowledge the chef.” “Who does he think he is, trying to court me with food?”
Sicheng sometimes gives gifts back to Yuta. A pair of new knives, silk robes, a calligraphy set.
“I’m sorry Yuta, I’m not very good at romance.”
Yuta is happy nonetheless. Tries to teach Sicheng how to cook (but poor baby is hopeless in the kitchen)
Dongtae (Taeyong/Dongyoung):
Music!AU - Flutist!Doyoung and Alto Saxist!Taeyong
I love their cat and mouse dynamic
Classical + Jazz clash / #enemies to lovers
Doyoung is incredibly self conscious about his skills, does a lot of competitions, Taeyong is a natural and wins awards at jazz festivals for solos
“God, what the fuck was that solo?”
Taeyong is either confused or a silent savage
“Sorry, forgot you classical folk need someone to tell you what to play.”
Taeyong is secretly a doubler and admires Doyoung’s skills
Doyoung.exe has stopped working
They look like they hate each other but sometimes Doyoung will carry Taeyong’s sax for him and Taeyong will keep an eye on Doyoung’s flute sitting precariously on the seat
Will seek comfort in each other- listens to the other complain about performances and comfort each other when one cries from pressure
Markhyuck (Mark/Donghyuck):
Angel/Demon!AU - Demon!Mark and Angel Donghyuck
mWAHAHAHA you thought it was gonna be the other way around? :D
A very hard working Mark and a mischievous Donghyuck who makes Mark’s life a little harder
“Ow Haechan why are you biting my wings?”
Donghyuck provides comfort and serves as a constant as other demons take advantage of Mark
“You’re too nice to be working for the devil.”
Sometimes they’ll have really deep conversations
“Are your people okay with you talking to a demon?”
“Psh they don’t care what I do. I can be replaced anytime if they really feel like it.”
Donghyuck will insist on Mark abandoning his duties to go to the arcade or go eat at the nearest fast food place
Mark asks why Donghyuck cares so much
“I just do. Don’t think too hard or else your head will explode.”
Coffee Shop!AU (high school!AU) - Barista!Jeno and Artist!Renjun
Let’s clear things up Renjun is not a starving artist he is very well fed thank you very much
“Why do you get black coffee?”
“Because I don’t know what else to get.”
Loves Jeno’s eye smile. Tries to replicate it every time he goes to the coffee shop
Jeno is only there as a part time to cover expenses for school
“Are you gonna major in art?”
Renjun leaves little doodles on his napkins every time he comes, and Jeno refuses to let Jaemin throw them away
“Dude that’s kinda unsanitary.”
Jeno watches Renjun doodle from afar and Jaemin has to watch Renjun leave yet again without Jeno asking for his number
Luckily Renjun gets tired of waiting
Jeno finds the doodle Renjun drew that day is a full on watercolor work of his face with his eye smile with a number written on the napkin
i got impatient. also stop hoarding my doodles that’s kinda creepy
“JAEMIN THE CUTE ARTIST GAVE ME HIS NUMBER”
Chensung (Chenle/Jisung):
Time traveler!AU (Soulmates!AU)
Chenle is the time traveler who goes to try to break the matrix and find his soulmate so he doesn’t have to wait until they’re reincarnated into their next life together
But as compensation Chenle will only be able to be with Jisung for 48 hours before he is “removed from the timeline” (basically he gets killed and reincarnated into the next life)
“Park Jisung I did not get run over by a car in the last life for this kind of disrespect.”
Only Chenle remembers the past lives, so he and Jisung basically just try to do as much as they can in 48 hours
“Wow it must be annoying trying to convince me that I’m supposed to be in love with you every two days.”
“It’s worse for you, you’re the one who has to keep living without me.”
They do mundane things, like play video games, eat too much junk food, Chenle sings for Jisung and Jisung dances for Chenle
Right before the 48 hours is up Chenle always gives Jisung a kiss
“I’ll see you in the next life yeah?”
