Jay Cooper, the former leader of the cold fusion industry, now works on a different project; he must complete his life's work to change the past. The time machine was a passion project for almost a decade, but it became a necessity when a virus spread. The virus gave some people supernatural abilities, killed others, but it left most unaffected entirely. However, his machine seems to have attracted the attention of a force that wants what he's created. He gains some new friends on this path, while he fights to save himself and everyone he loves. His path is not straight or easy to navigate; it's a journey through time and space to discover the source of the only thing that can oppose his mission to stop the spread of the virus. But will he be smart enough to figure this out?Jay

Paradox - Lost in Time
In a world on the brink of collapse, a deadly mutation of the Zika virus, labelled H1T1, begins to claim lives with a speed not seen since the Black Death swept through Europe. Desperate to stop the outbreak, a group of young scientists successfully constructs a time machine, hoping to venture into the future to retrieve a cure and bring it back to their present. Fully aware of the risks, they push the machine beyond its limits and find themselves partially stranded in a dystopian future. In this grim reality, the virus has wiped out three-quarters of the global population, dismantling society as we know it. The remnants of humanity now inhabit fractured cities, controlled by brutal armed factions and authoritarian regimes. Trapped in this hostile world, the group must navigate a landscape of violence and despair while confronting their own futures and counterparts from this timeline. The mistakes of the past resurface: rivalries, betrayals, and the devastating losses that tore them apart-murder, madness, and the inescapable brutality of a world drained of hope. In their fight to survive and find the cure, they face not only the dangers of this future but also the haunting reality of what they might become.Complete

Rent A Friend
Steven doesn't complain. Not to his family, not to his friends, not to anyone. He's the reliable one, the calm one, the guy who always has it together. ...Except he doesn't. One bad day, he stumbles across Rent A Friend-a website where you pay to talk, vent, or just waste thirty minutes of your life with a stranger. It's supposed to be a one-time thing. Just thirty minutes. Just a random voice on the other line. But then JL picks up his call. JL-sarcastic, sassy, and way too good at making him laugh when he's supposed to be brooding-becomes the highlight of Steven's nights. What was supposed to be "just a service" turns into a habit... and maybe something dangerously close to a connection. There's only one catch: ❌ No personal info. ❌ No meeting in real life. ❌ No exceptions. But when video calls and slip-ups start blurring the lines, Steven finds himself falling for the voice on the other end of the line. And JL? He might just be falling, too. A fluffy, slow-burn romcom about late-night calls, accidental feelings, and discovering that sometimes, love really is just a call away.Complete

𝐒𝐓★𝐑𝐁𝐎𝐘 || 𝐘. 𝐉𝐔𝐍𝐆𝐖𝐎𝐍
✎ 𝐒𝐓★𝐑𝐁𝐎𝐘 "You can't possibly treat me like this when I don't even know you" I say, meeting his gaze. "You're acting like a child." His hand suddenly moves behind my head, gripping a fistful of my loose hair. I squeeze my eyes shut, refusing to show the pain. "What did you just call me?" His voice is low, laced with warning. "Say it again. I dare you." I force my eyes open. "I said you're acting. Like. A. Child." My voice trembles as his grip tightens. His eyes darken, something more than anger flickering in them. He leans in, stopping just inches from my neck. My pulse races, my breath hitching as I hold his gaze. Then, after a long pause, he steps back. Releasing my hair, he smirks, turns on his heel, and walks away-as if nothing ever happened. ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ ★⏤͟͟͞͞ 𝙷𝚒𝚜 𝚍𝚎𝚜𝚒𝚛𝚎 𝚏𝚘𝚛 𝚑𝚎𝚛 𝚒𝚜 𝚘𝚗𝚕𝚢 𝚛𝚒𝚟𝚊𝚕𝚎𝚍 𝚋𝚢 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚏𝚞𝚛𝚢 𝚜𝚑𝚎 𝚒𝚐𝚗𝚒𝚝𝚎𝚜 𝚒𝚗 𝚑𝚒𝚖 ★⏤͟͟͞͞ 𝚂𝚑𝚎 𝚜𝚠𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚜 𝚜𝚑𝚎 𝚑𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚜 𝚑𝚒𝚖, 𝚋𝚞𝚝 𝚑𝚎𝚛 𝚋𝚘𝚍𝚢 𝚛𝚎𝚖𝚎𝚖𝚋𝚎𝚛𝚜 𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚢 𝚝𝚘𝚞𝚌𝚑 ─────────────── ☆ S T A T U S : Ongoing ☆ S T A R T E D : Jan-6th-2025 ☆ F I N I S H E D : __-__-____ ─────────────── 𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 ★★★★★ #1 yangjungwon #1 jungwon #1 simjaeyun #1 leeheeseung #1 parkjongsung #1 enhypenff #1 streetracing #1 hopelessromantic #1 sunghoon #1 ni-ki #1 company #2 enhypenjungwon #2 race #3 engene #3 jungwonff #3 college
