bangchan changbin changin chanmin hyunjin hyunlix jeongin jisung minho minsung seungmin skz stay straykids

A police case that should've been simple.
A clan that shouldn't exist.
A love that was never meant to happen.

Felix, Bangchan and Seungmin ( together Baekryeondan) is assigned to investigate Hekwoldan, a CRIMINAL organization that leaves no traces - no bodies, no witnesses, no mistakes.
But the deeper he looks, the more one name keeps appearing:
Hwang Hyunjin.
Leader. Ghost. Obsession waiting to happen.
Felix thinks he's hunting a criminal.
Hyunjin already knows he's found the person he was willing to burn the world for.
One wrong move. One blown cover.
And suddenly Felix is tied to a chair, staring at the man he's been chasing -
and Hyunjin is looking at him like he's something fragile he's not supposed to touch.
The law says they hate each other.
Reality says it's already too late.

SKZ GROUPCHAT (GC) - STRAY KIDS BXB by icelixtea

Eight strangers. One accidental groupchat. And absolutely zero self-control. When Felix-sunshine in human form-randomly makes a groupchat out of mutuals he's lowkey stalked online, he doesn't expect it to spiral into late-night flirting, passive-aggressive roasts, and maybe... actual feelings? Featuring: 💋 Hyunjin, who thinks he's everyone's type (he might be right). 🐈 Minho, allergic to affection but suspiciously soft around Jisung. 🛠️ Chan, the tired dad figure who's definitely falling for Seungmin's attitude. 💥 Jisung, the human form of chaos. 🧊 Seungmin, sharp tongue, softer heart. 🏋️ Changbin, gym bro with a crush. 🍼 Jeongin, not a baby (but will destroy you). 🍓 And Felix, the glue holding this chaotic disaster together-with a giggle and a wink. Ships will ship. Chaos will reign. And this groupchat? It's about to become the most entertaining accident of their lives.

Hyunlix | Eternis Noctum by LuvSeungminji

🔞/🧛/🩸 In a world where half-vampires are hunted for blood, power, and pleasure, Hyunjin has spent his life hiding-careful, quiet, invisible. But when he accidentally bumps into Felix, a sociopathic vampire with an acting career and a warped sense of personality, his anonymity unravels over a dropped sucker and a missing apology. Caught and forced into the Hunting, Hyunjin must navigate a brutal system where survival means submission-while Felix, intrigued and obsessed, slowly gets attached. Or: Felix doesn't care what Hyunjin is: half-blood, hunted, terrified. All he knows is that he doesn't plan on letting him go. **I try to update every 6th, 16th, 26th.

Steps to Reconnect - Felix x skz by huaxie__

Felix thought he had left his past behind after a heartbreaking betrayal from the people he once called family. But when life pulls him back into their orbit, old wounds resurface, and memories he worked so hard to bury begin to reawaken. With a fragile heart, a lingering injury, and a yearning for genuine connection, Felix tries to navigate a dance camp alongside Minho-his protective half-brother-and Wooyoung, his newfound source of comfort. However, the unexpected presence of his childhood friends stirs unresolved emotions: jealousy, guilt, and a faint hope for reconciliation. As Felix confronts the weight of his history with Bangchan, Hyunjin, Han, Seungmin, Jeongin, and Changbin, he finds himself at a crossroads. Can the bonds they once shared be repaired, or has the damage been done for good? And will Felix allow himself to trust again, both in others and in himself? In a story filled with heartfelt moments, lingering pain, and the power of dance, Steps to Reconnect explores the challenges of forgiveness, the strength of chosen family, and the delicate art of rebuilding broken ties.
