I read more Sekai fics than I really need to that I have a point where I’ve read majority of the fics in fic recs. I write some of my own, I adore the entire ship between Sehun and Jongin, it’s a god tier ship. So I figured, since I’ve read so many and write my own, I could make a list of my favorite ships and make a fic rec for those who are interested in Sekai like me.
SO, I’ll put the rating, what site it’s on, the word count along with a few tags. Personal word to mention but some of these fics aren’t in my taste (either because it’s not of my usual tropes or the setting of the fic isn’t in my favor, ex hybrid au) which I’ll mark with a # but I’ll put it on here because they were well written and I didn’t mind reading them. Plus, everyone has different tastes and I believe sharing works of all kinds with people. I’ll mark my favorites with a * and please give credit where it’s due to the authors. They work really hard, and I enjoy reading all of their works, I hope you will too.
Without further a due, let’s go into this fic rec. Also... I love bottom Jongin so that’ll be here a lot I’m so sorry.
