Ship/Member: Any pairing or gen
Major Tags: reality tv AU, Survivor AU
Additional Tags: competition, rivalries, mind games
Do Not Wants: None

Prompt: AU based on the American reality tv show Survivor. Seventeen as 13 contestants shipped off to a remote island where they must compete in physical and mental challenges, all while forming strong relationships with other players to keep themselves from being eliminated. You can focus on one member or a few, center it around a romantic pairing or not, but a critical component of Survivor is strategy in forming relationships with other players to keep yourself safe from elimination. Anything focusing on alliances made + broken and the unique mental challenge of the show would be great :D

Additional Tags: zombie apocalypse, post-apocalyptic, wound tending, blood and violence, explicit sexual content, mild gore, accidentally fell in love at the end of the world
Do Not Wants: MCD

Prompt:

"I was never afraid before you showed up."

Years after the incident that ended the world, instead of doom, Wonwoo found a rather similar four-letter word.

PS. Was heavily affected by The Last of Us EP3 and thought I want a Wonwoo version... make it hurt, make it light, anything you want-- I just want you to have fun while writing.

Major Tags: N/A
Additional Tags: optional: forced proximity, repression, mild violence
Do Not Wants: None

Prompt: Bodyguard AU! Bodyguard/idol, bodyguard/royal, bodyguard/bodyguard, etc. Thinking about the inherent romance of shielding someone else from danger with your body. I'd love to see how a bodyguard might respond to a non-traditional threat (natural disaster? car accident? zombies?) but feel free to take this anywhere.

Prompt: Cafe Minamdang follows a former criminal profiler who now works as a fraudster. For his scams, he disguises himself as a shaman and runs the fortune teller shop (slash cafe) Minamdang. He attracts customers with his handsome physical appearance and smooth talking skills. He scams his customers for money, but he also gets involved in their cases and helps solve them.

if you've watched the drama then you know there's much more to it, but even if you haven't, i'd love to see something based only on the information given above re: a swindler and his colleagues (a barista, a waiter, and a hacker) convincing gullible masses to pay obscene amounts for him to contact the dead and help them sort out their troubles. if you want to throw in a detective investigating the cafe for suspicious activities, well...
