roommates shimkongz, vampire!ricky, ongoing !
Vampires are not real. And even if they were, Ricky isn’t one of them. Yes, he’s unnaturally beautiful, pale, and cold to the touch. He has packs of blood in his fridge. He sleeps during the day, his eyes sometimes change color, and Gyuvin has never seen him eat or drink anything, and oh my god, Ricky really is a vampire, isn't he?
OR Gyuvin’s new roommate is confusing. First, he’s beautiful. Second, he’s a little bit lame. And third, there is a possibility he’s not even a human.

The boy puts down his dog (Eumppappa, right?) and she immediately pads up to Hanbin to lick at his ankles, which are exposed beneath his trousers. Then he bows back, and gingerly takes Hanbin’s hand to shake it, though he does so a bit wildly. “Ooh, a western greeting? Did you live abroad?” He releases Hanbin’s hand and smiles. As he does, his cheeks scrunch up adorably. “I’m Kim Gyuvin. Looking for a house—we spoke on the phone. And did you say witch? Like, tarot readings and such?”
or: Kitchen witch Hanbin sets up an advertisement to fill the empty room in his house full of magical inhabitants—spelled in such a way that ordinary eyes will not find it. Kim Gyuvin, definitely a human, reacts to the ad.

shimkongz, ceo!ricky x assistant!gyuvin, slowburn, ongoing !
–» Gyuvin truly regrets telling his roommate how handsome one of his customers at the coffee shop was, because Ricky Shen is obviously an asshole. That much was apparent as he was being interviewed by him the next day.
Or,
Bumbling, clumsy Gyuvin is just trying to make his way in the world, and no-nonsense, "cold" Ricky just trying to hold his company together with his bare hands. Somehow these two opposing forces come together, trying to make their way of the world despite their vastly different backgrounds.

SUBJECT: when i met you
ricky,
i found this website, it lets you write emails to people in the future. i thought it would be fun to send it to you ten years from now. can you pretend it’s just as romantic as sending a love letter? haha
i know we will still be together, but i will ask you questions anyways: do you still have dyed hair? what’s your favorite k-drama right now? do you still make me cut your food for you? i think i’ll know the answers but please turn and tell me anyways.
Ten years after their break-up, Ricky receives an email from Kim Gyuvin.
