Hi! Do you know the title of a fic in which JK suffered from a brain injury and couldn’t remember his relationship with JM. He only remembered not liking JM in the past and treated the current JM rudely too at first. There was also side Namjin but their plot line was angst. I read it a while ago and remember the title TT

© ROTIFUL 

2019 was a pretty great year for Jikook, so I wanted to wrap up some of my absolute favorite Jikook fics from this past year! Hope that this helps you discover some new fics :)

oh no, he's hot by goldenhearts -- goldenhearts writes some pretty great stuff and this one is no exception. this is an “accidental hookup au” with lots of feelings and I enjoyed every word

i glow pink in the night by fatal (cumrich) -- ok it’s a close call buuut i think this is my #1 favorite on the list it’s so so so good. i don’t even know how to describe it but it’s so good. 

In Lust We Trust by orphan_account -- can u still hear me screaming about this fic?? Jimin is a fashion designer and Jungkook is a photographer, this one seriously made me feel things

the universe has moved for us by jonghyunslisterine -- oof a longer one but v good a/b/o neighber au! 

Like You Because by Rose_gold715 -- this is so sweet and good. deals with relationship insecurities and it’s just super well written and enjoyable to read

the moon keeps calling out to me, but i only ever hear your name by fatal (cumrich) -- another writer I consistently rlly love to read. this is an au where Jimin is a human and Jungkook is a werewolf that Jimin is being married off to, has some violence and is definitely one to read the tags for beforehand just in case it’s not ur cup of tea

i like how desperate you seem (in the way you look at me) by fatal (cumrich) -- this one is an a/b/o au from the same writer, it’s ongoing but what has been written so far is pretty darn good. again check out the tags before reading just in case

[changmiii]

Blue Filter by GinForInk -- there is not a single fic by GinForInk that i dislike and this fic is no exception . sorry for that triple negative but, this is some high quality content. honestly marine biologist Namjoon is such an aesthetic I love it.

Apex predator, apex beat by Rose_gold715 -- this is a vampire/human au, honestly everything written by this author makes me feel so many feelings so please give this a try 

Unbelievable by mllevangogh -- LOVE LOVE LOVE

a beginner's guide to destroying the moon byblackranger (robpatFF) -- this is a vmin post break-up au and it’s a lil angsty but so so good

i guess i'll take it, heartbreaker by blackranger (robpatFF) -- can you tell i’m obsessed with this author?? this is poly seokminjin?? 2seokmin? idk but its hella good.

inside a sinking feeling by CaptainButts -- man. okay I truly adore this author and this fic, do yourself a favor and read it

[changmiii]

you’re like a dream

When Jungkook’s gaze fell back onto his face, Taehyung was looking at him with an expression that he couldn’t place— lips upturned as though he was holding back a warm smile, eyes warm and inviting, drawing him in.

A sudden, strange feeling came up from Jungkook’s chest that said, I want to marry him. His heart raced. He almost said it out loud, but stopped himself. He was being ridiculous. They had only known each other for a few hours, and Jungkook was going home to Korea soon; there was nothing long-term about this, as much as he wanted to pretend that there was. Was it possible that Taehyung felt this strange intensity, too? Maybe, he thought; that look on his face certainly said something.

“Jeon Jungkook,” Taehyung said. It wasn’t an address, or a greeting; it was just his name, infused with something warm and electrifying.
