"It's fun to pretend you're someone you're not, and doing it Online makes it easier." --- Seo Yina would like to call herself fun and carefree, but when something tragic happens in her life, she moves house and decides to download a dating app - less for the dating, more for the friendships (as she would say) - to take a break from reality. On the app she meets eight guys, each being so different yet so alike, which leads to Yina developing a great friendship with them all. As time goes by, Yina starts to realise that maybe friendship wasn't enough for her and one of these guys, but there was something she didn't know. Each person had a dark past and they were not as pure as they seemed. As Yina starts to figure out what's going on with them all, she thinks maybe she shouldn't have trusted them at all in the first place. •Dating App AU --- [[started: 3/6/18]] • Ateez fanfic

In every story there are heroes and villains. They play the roles of both. Crescent Cafe is a nondescript cafe located at an alley, bringing in less than around 10 customers per day. Underneath the exterior of a failing business, the building masks the headquarters for 8 hired "couriers", doing jobs that range from menial ones such as catching a cheating spouse to skilled ones such as assassinating a gang leader. As long as it does not go against their principles and the pay's enough, the job is considered done. No one pays attention to them and only some know their secret identities. Han Byul is a recent university graduate crippling with student debt, fumbling around to find a part-time job that can at least sustain her until she finds a proper job. Frustrated after another failed job interview, she stumbled upon Crescent Cafe; she went in hoping for a cup of coffee and a peace of mind. What she got was a deadly secret that left the men with two choices: either kill her or take her in. But hey, at least the coffee's good. Action - comedy - romance... and many more in between. Hopefully. [Disclaimer: This story contains descriptions of sensitive themes, death, blood, violence and mild language. No explicit content.
