author: schadenfreudes 

Meanie

AO3

Warnings: None 

Author’s Summary: In times of crisis, it’s best not to panic, he remembers Jihoon hyung telling him once when he got himself stuck in a sweater that was apparently too tight for him. He tries to calm down and looking at the situation from the best possible angle.The stranger clears his throat behind him and speaks calmly once again, “My name is Wonwoo. Jeon Wonwoo.” au in which meanie are from parallel universes and meet only at dusk, where worlds converge on top of ley lines.

And They Told Me Office Jobs Were Boring

author: achilleus

Junhao, Verkwan, Jicheol, Soonseok, Meanie, and Jihan 

AO3

Warnings: Mention of a stripper 

Author’s Summary: "When I accepted this position,“ Seungcheol hisses, "I figured it would be easy. I would just have to review some articles, correct some spelling errors, maybe conduct an interview or two…but instead, I get this."He gestures aimlessly with his hand to absolutely nothing, but Junhui more or less understands what he’s getting at.OR: Seungcheol is Jeonghan’s bitch (for forever, bitch), Seungkwan and Hansol are broken up (and never ever getting back together, like ever), Junhui is attempting to woo Minghao via horoscopes, Soonyoung and Seokmin have a bet going on (with both their cash money and bodies at stake), and something’s going on with Wonwoo and Mingyu but no one knows what. At least that’s how the story starts…it gets a bit messy later on.

Notes: I am absolutely in love with this fic. The storyline is hilarious, the character development is perfect, and the plot/writing is well done. An office!au that is quickly rising on my favorite fics list. 

Length:  22487 words // Ongoing with 5 chapters 

[meanieficrecs]

This is a beautiful ot13 office!au fic with meanie. As I said in the notes, this is a wonderfully written fic that I have fallen in love with. If you’re not looking for a main!meanie fic, definitely recommend this!

i just need you (to want me)

author: hanlikesolo 

Meanie

AO3 

Warnings: Implied smut, Mention of death 

Author’s Summary: “Mingyu?” he asks, voice small as he watches the sundown beyond his window.Mingyu hums in acknowledgment, shifting so Wonwoo can rest his head on his chest.“You do get one of us is going to die, right?”

Notes: Good plot flow with interesting characters! I really enjoyed reading this because it was, in my opinion, a unique AU. Kind of angsty so not for the fluff-lovers. Part of this series . 

Length: 1849 words // Oneshot

both hands out, my i

author: blueshade

Junhao with Meanie and mention of Soonhoon 

AO3

Warnings: Mention of sex and drinking 

Author’s Summary: (Jun blames his face.Objectively, it’s a nice face. Symmetrical, well-built, photogenic to the point where his selfies could be considered a new form of contemporary art. It’s his get-out-of-jail-free card at parties and a reliable coupon for the campus convenience store, but it’s also highly problematic because: 1] The entire campus assumes he’s slept with everyone in a two-mile radius. And that’s— far from the truth. He’s only hooked up with three people, one of which was the student council vice president. (He’s still banned from all upcoming school functions.) 2] The only person he actually wants to sleep with is Xu Minghao, and Jun’s better off asking for the moon. Just his luck that the one person completely immune to his good looks is the one he happens to fall for.) [Jun dances until his legs give out and reminds himself over and over that Minghao’s too good for him. Minghao pulls him back up to his feet and keeps his mouth shut around the words he really wants to say. It’s not the easiest combination, but just maybe, they’ll make it work.]

Notes: Love love love this oneshot! Very cute with slow build. The characterization is on point, and the plot build is natural and flows well. Part of this series, which i wholeheartedly recommend! (friends to lovers)  

Length: 17347 words // Oneshot 

[meanieficrecs]

So the other fic in this series is excuse my bad handwriting, the one in this rec. If anyone has been craving another fic in the same au, this is a great followup read!  

[meanieficrecs]

Waiting Up All Night

author: Kookie_329 

Meanie 

AO3 

Warnings: Mention of cigarettes (no smoking tho) 

Author’s Summary: "Up all night, by Oliver Tank." "Pardon?" He asks, curious about the sudden response. The shorter boy smiles, "The song you were dancing to. It's called Up all night by Oliver Tank. He makes good music."Or: where Mingyu waits each night for the mystery boy who buys a pack of cigarettes, skittles, m&m's and recommends him songs.

Notes: Really well written; the writing isn’t awkward and has smooth flow. Soft friendship! Not really as much romance. Leaves you wishing for more. 

Length: 3569 words // Oneshot

[meanieficrecs]

jeon who?

author: bootaeful 

Meanie with Taekook

AO3

Warnings: None

Author’s Summary: “Can’t you at least tell me the surname of whoever you’re crushing on,” wheedles Bambam as he clutches Mingyu’s arm. “I’m like, the god of matchmaking.” To which Bambam gets a scoff and a scuff to the head by Yugyeom.Wonwoo can practically feel Yugyeom’s eyeroll from where he is sitting, facing away from the trio chatting. “I call bullshit.”(In which Jeon Wonwoo misunderstands and misjudges -- but hey, it’s not his fault that they share the same surname. And he’s not bitter, not at all.)

Notes: Good fluff about misunderstandings. Non au!

Length: 2062 words // Oneshot

all the 14u tea got me shook 

[meanieficrecs]

blow my high (members only)

Author: hanlikesolo

Meanie + Jeongcheol (and some background Soonhoon)

Ao3

Warnings: hints at some darker themes (specifically at Soonyoung); a lot of mentions of marijuana, and some underage drinking; 

Author’s Summary: It’s alarming, how quick people drift apart and transform into strangers haunted by similar demons.

Submission Notes: the first chapter is all text, but the rest isn’t. 

Extra: Wonwoo is asexual, and the fic touches on being in the closet among other things (which’ll be incorporated later on). 

Notes: So this fic is a mix of texting and written plot, which I found interesting. It’s written well but very graphically, so please heed the warnings! 

Length:  11244 words // Ongoing with 14 chapters
