the theme of this roundup is protags who are so so so so so gripless. spoilers for: idol, burning – rin usami, bunny – mona awad, katabasis – rf kuang.

currently reading: checkmate – tan, little eyes - samanta schweblin, two of swords – kj Charles. also i was craving romantasy slop so I started listening to the audiobook of alchemised senlinyu during walks but it is not a good book so when I ran out of spotify listening hours for the month I just never picked it up again. so I guess I am still in the market for romantasy slop to smoothen my brain to.

( But some part of me was waiting for the pauses between the sounds to get longer and longer, until eventually the sounds stopped altogether. )

Fic fragments part 2: Seventeen edition

These are all from 2024 so I'll leave off the years on these. Snippets get longer as you go down the list. This was def my genfic era but genfics really require more substance than any of these fics had which is probably why they all died, lol.

Going Seventeen humor fic. Barely started it.
( Fic 1 )

Wonwoo watches videos from a parallel universe. Written pre-AI lol. Abandoned because it was directionless. From 2024.
( Fic 2 )

Grad school AU, gyuhao I think? I eventually wrote a very different kind of grad school AU but in this one Scoups was majoring in atmospheric science.
( Fic 3 )

This was supposed to be a fic in the The Mountains Unfurl extended universe following miissedappointments' sequel remix, but I could not write it very well so I scrapped it. In retrospect it should have been Scoups POV...
( Fic 4 )

Jeonghan adopts a cat AU. In retrospect the tone was too light to make the premise work, but this was a cute idea anyway.
( Fic 5 )

Remember when people used to post fragments of fics they'd abandoned? I was just randomly looking at some of those old posts and I thought, this was such a fun thing, and I've got a lot of abandoned fics. I never used to do posts like this because I maintained that I had abandoned those fics for a reason, that reason being that they were not very good. But now it's 2026 and I have way less time for fic writing and it's kind of fun to look back on, so I will do some posts with abandoned fic fragments from years past :)

For the sake of organization, this will be the Suzy + Got7 fic fragments edition.

Jay B-centric... noir AU? Jessica Jones AU? Not sure. From 2018.
( Fic 1 )

---

JJPzy noir AU. From 2019. Another version of the fic above.
( Fic 2 )

---

JJ Project meandering Post-Apocalypse AU. From 2018.
( Fic 3 )

---

jjpzy step-siblings au triangle that I have no recollection of writing? From 2019.
( Fic 4 )

---

Jrzy canonverse attempt. From 2024.
( Fic 5 )

---

Jrzy, cast in the same drama AU. From 2024.
( Fic 6 )

---

Jrzy, aimless word sketch. From 2025.
( Fic 7 )

---
I'll have to make a separate post of the marauders au that I wrote like four different versions of lol.

Happy Saturday!

I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!

If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.

all the pretty words for you
