#im so sorry to everyone i owe commissions to im gonna try to do some on the flight

[cartoonsbyandie]

Greetings from the airport!

Flying to a convention for uhhh the first time ever? Needless to say my March is absolutely jam packed with cons, both for business and just for fun (like this one.) I might post pictures? We'll see. I'm cosplaying Kogoro.

[is-that-another-soulmate-au]

Alrught so Modern soulmate AU bending is still a thing because I want it to be, sit down.

Soulmate AU: lock and key.

Everyone is born with either a lock or a key somewhere on them. The most common placements are the neck or the wrist. Some can be on their thigh, ankle, or even their waist.

Sokka has a key around both wrists

Suki has a key around her left wrist and a lock on her right

And Zuko has two locks on a single chain around his waist just above his hip bones.

Modern AU: looking for roommates.

Zuko put some 'looking for roommates' posters around town and gets a call from two people Sokka and Suki. He decides to meet up with them at his Uncle's tea shop (which I'm calling 'Dragon Insomniac' because I want it to be a 24hr teashop).

Now, onto the story:

"Zuko, you told them to meet up at 4 , its still 3" his Uncle said as he set down his nephew's cup of tea.

"I kno that Uncle, I just wanted to be ready for them" he fidgeted in his seat for a moment and readjusted the sleeves on his shirt out of habit.

"An extra hour of preparation before discussing roommates?" Iroh chuckled when Zuko nodded "alright, enjoy the tea, I'll show them to your table when they get here"

Zuko hummed a response as his Uncle walked off. Taking a drink of his tea he went over what he planned on saying to the duo when they managed to get to the shop.

Lost in thought he didnt even notice it had been a half an hour already, and only managed to resurface when he heard the little bell go off and two people walk in, a tall man with an undercut and his hair pulled back into a ponytail and a woman with shoulder length hair with the top half pulled back into a braid going down the back of her head. The man had a blue jacket on while the girl simply wore a green turtleneck sweater.

"Didn't expect us to come in at the same time, wonder which one he is" the man said while looking around

"Lets ask the man at the counter, I think he said his uncle owned the place" the woman pointed out

Ah, thats them. Interesting. Zuko let out a sigh and tried to swallow his sudden anxiety. He watched as his uncle directed the duo over to him and they both kind of stared at him for a second, turned to look st eachother and then back at him. Most people have that reaction due to his scar so he didnt find it unusual. He made a small wave and took a sip of his tea.

The two walked over and took their seats "Zuko?" The man asked as he sat down

"The one and only" he smirked a little "Suki and Sokka I presume?"

They nodded "yeah, so uhm, we actually know eachother from high-school" Suki motioned between her and Sokka

"Oh?" That was a little unexpected

"Yeah, I didnt know you meant this Suki when you told me her name, we haven't seen eachother in years!" Sokka chimed in

"Is the fact you two have a past together a deal breaker with being roommates?" Zuko rose his brow

"Oh not at all! It's a pleasant surprise to be honest" Suki chirped "we were two of the very few non-benders in the school"

"Oh? That's a relief to be honest. Last time I roomed with another bender they broke my gaming console" Zuko laughed

After they went over the agreements and signed some papers they all hopped into their cars and the duo followed Zuko to the apartment complex. Zuko gave them a mini tour and showed them his animals, that being a bearded dragon named Druk and two cats named Mushi and Lee

Before the end of the day Zuko handed them both keys to the apartment and sent them on their way to pack up, telling them he'd have their rooms ready by the next morning.

And he did, he had the rooms ready and organized with beds made (he totally went out and bought them both really nice bedsets in the colors they wore that day.) Laundry hampers, little bedside tables and a desk in both rooms, knowing through text conversations that Suki blogged and Sokka drew and carved.

Sokka was the first to arrive, having spent most of the night meticulously packing his items into boxes. "Wow, this is different than yesterday? Did you have this packed away?"

Zuko let out a snort "no, I went out and got the blankets and hampers after you two left, my Uncle had the rest of it in storage, I steamed the beds though so you don't have to worry about any dust or what have you."

Sokka raised a brow "you went all out huh?"

"Just being hospitable, I hope you like the bed set, I'll go start lunch, you down for burgers?"

"Hell yeah I'm down for burgers"

Zuko chuckled "alright, Ill get them started, when Suki gets here let me know."

Later on Suki arrived and she was just in time for lunch. Walking in and slipping off her shoes to set them on the small shoe rack Zuko set up, she sniffed the air "oooohhh whats that smell!"

"Zuko! Suki's here!" Sokka called

"Yeah! I could here that! Thank you though!" And with that said Zuko rounded the corner and made a little wave "Im making Burgers, do you want wheat buns, white buns or Brioche buns?"

"Brioche please, I like the apron" she giggled

He flushed "it was a gift from my uncle" the apron simply read 'look at these hot buns on the chef' and Zuko didnt want to get a new apron because he was afraid of hurting his Uncle's feelings

"He sure has a good sense of humor" she laughed

The rest of the day went smoothly and they all eventually went to bed around 11 that night. The next two weeks Zuko was busy working doubles at the teashop, Suki was busy working as a bouncer at Kyoshi Rise and Sokka was busy doing commissions and working at his dads flower shop, so it was kind of a blur.

The Saturday after the busy two weeks they all had off. Suki and Sokka were sleeping in while Zuko was taking the time to do some morning yoga, donning a pair of black yoga shorts and a red crop top as he did his stretches. The soul chain and locks hanging around his waist now visible to anyone who might see him. Though he was sure his roommates wouldn't be waking up any time soon.

Little did he know Sokka was leaned against the doorway to the kitchen watching his flexible roommate do yoga while sipping on a mug of coffee. "So thats where your soulmate thing is?"

"Ack!" Zuko lost his balance and collapsed on his mat "you twat! You could have waited until I was in a more stable stretch! Ow that really hurt" he rubbed his backside "and yeah, thats where my soul locks are"

"Locks? As in plural? I have two keys, Suki has a lock and key"

"Oh? Thats uh... interesting?"

"Whats interesting and what was that bang?" Suki yawned as she walked out of her bedroom

"Oh just the fact that we all happen to have two soulmates" Zuko said in a grumpy tone "and that bang was me falling because this jerk scared me while I was doing yo-"

"Woah, you're kinda hot" Suki blurted and turned red "sorry, ive just never seen you in a crop top. You're uh, well built" she cleared her throat awkwardly

Zuko froze and turned beet red "uh, thank you? I kick box and do yoga and that's about it" he then stood and stretched his arms above his head "anyways, do you guys want waffles for- agh! What are you doing?" He jumped back when Suki reached out to one of his locks

"Shush, one of your locks has a similar pattern my key I wanna try something" She brought her left wrist up to the lock "hey, what'd'y'know, it actually matches" she smiled but brought her hand back to her side "I guess I'm one of your soulmates huh?"

Zuko blinked at her and then looked to Sokka and then back to Suki "why didn't you unlock it then?"

She laughed "well if you have multiple soulmates you have to have both unlock at the same time, thats why me and Sokka lost touch after sch- Sokka come here real quick"

"Oh my gods" Zuko mumbled under his breath as Sokka came closer and brought his right hand up and smirked

"Would you look at that, weve been under the same rook for a total of two weeks and never noticed." The duo then looked at Zuko "would you be okay with us unlocking them?"

He nodded and watched them unlock his soul locks simultaneously and watched sokka unlock Suki's. His face was probably the same shade as his shirt when the chain sealed around his waist as a sort of tattoo instead of an actual chain.

"Well, this has been an interesting morning. But I have to restate my question, who wants waffles for breakfast?"

>should I continue this? I'm tempted, but im gonna end it here for now<

commission: medical school!au baekho other nuest x medical school!aus: jonghyun | minhyun | ren

specialty: is doing his residency in orthopedic surgery

absolutely did not expect to find himself in medical school BUT when life gives you lemons,,,,,,,,,,,, squash them with your muscules and become a surgeon - ya know?

he’s been a sleepyhead his whole life, but waking up and staying up for residency has really - 

well, quite frankly, if jonghyun isn’t there to smack him awake with a slipper than well 

he wouldn’t have made it this far LOL

when he was considering going into medicine, people were all expecting he meant something like becoming and EMT? not an actual doctor?

because the misconception is oh he’s all brawn and no brain

but baekho isn’t an idiot - his focus and concentration, especially when he’s stubborn about something, is hard to break

so in that way - he’s perfect for med school

because yeah it’s not a competition, but watching people not be able to handle the pressure just reminds him that hey

he’ll come out of this alive - he has to come out of this alive - if REN can do it then so can he

his mom will not stop embarrassing him by telling everyone her sons a SURGEON and he’s like mom not yet and she’s like a SURGEON a S U R G E O N 

broad shoulders didn’t fit in the lab coat he got when he first started so he was so stiff he couldn’t even hold a clipboard

he looked like a teddy bear stuffed into a toy jacket - it was so funny but no one dared to laugh

because on first glance omg he’s a big intimidating resident who will probably eat you alive for giggling at how ridiculous he looks

but ,,,,,,,,, quickly that images melts away

because baekho is a sweetheart. he’s big and loud but at the end of the day his heart is covered in icing and sprinkles

helps carry heavy tech equipment for the residents in radiology

helps patients reach the top shelf for their medicine in the hospital pharmacy

carries kids to and from their beds when their parents are struggling or even when they just ask him too

because honestly baekho doesn’t know the word “no”

minhyun is always like “how can you do surgery - it’s so messy,,,,” 

and baekho is like “i like being messy”

mihyun looking at the kimchi sauce stains on baekho’s lab coat, twitching: “i- i know.”

 likes that a big chunk of his medical knowledge has to do with things pertaining to sports and athletes because it’s helpful for himself

his residency schedule is so speradic but if there’s one thing he can’t bring himself to lose out on is working out

so maybe if you’re lucky 

(or you just pass by and see the hoard of students dangling out the hospital window)

you’ll peek and see baekho has changed out of his lab coat and button down and is now in his sweat pants - shirtless when it’s super hot - starting his five mile run down to the river

professors, annoyed: can you all focus on our simulated patient and NOT on mr. kang doing his morning exercise

the resident: uhuh..................what?

this shit happens on a daily basis:

ren: “oh ow i hit my knee! baekhoooooo im going to diiiiiie can you carry me to the lockers?”

baekho not batting an eyelash: crawl there if you have to

but also baekho three seconds later with ren’s fragile body drapped over his one large shoulder: fine let’s go

dark circles when he has to stay up past 24 hours make him look like an actual demon 

(but not gonna lie it’s kinda hot) 

you never in your life imagined you’d break a bone 

let alone you never thought in your life you would break a bone in such an embarrassing way

that when you sat in the emergency room, cradling your arm with gritted teeth - you dreaded the godforsaken question

“well, how did it happen?”

what made it all worse was the fact that you’d expected the usual kind of doctor

middle-aged, residing hairline, deadpan voice 

you did not expect,,,,,,,,,,,,a greek god to come bouncing your way with a sympathetic look on his face

“oh, what happened?”

baekho asks you - and you literally lose the ability to speak because woah wait since when was the medical profession hiring male models?

“t-tram-”

“tram? something happened on the train?”

his eyes are kind, comforting and soft but the rest of him is wide and built

your mouth goes dry and he’s so striking it nearly makes you forget the pain your in from ,,,,, you know 

your broken arm

with perfect timing - your little cousin skids around the corner, holding the soda he’d snatched from the vending machine

“they fell off the trampoline at my birthday party!”

he announces with a big grin that makes the embarrassment you knew was coming feel ten times worse

baekho’s eyes widen for a moment and you just know he’s holding back a laugh

but instead, he seems to swallow it down and carefully ask you to come with him

your knees are weak, half because of baekho the other half because the pain has just been getting worse

baekho notices and carefully, making sure not to touch your arm - supports you by the waist up and onto your feet

your cousin bounds in after you as baekho has you sit and apologizes for the momentary sting you’ll feel as he tries to move your hand from your chest

you wince, throwing your head back and baekho takes a couple of moments to assist whats happened

he asks you some questions about the feeling and about how exactly it is you ended up falling off a trampoline

your eyes pan over to your cousin, who doesn’t seem to have a care in the world for anything but his soda

“he and the other kids were doing tricks and the parents didn’t want anyone getting hurt so they sent me in to stop them”

you sigh

“and ,,,, like an idiot, i realized too late that i can’t keep up with a bunch of ten-year-olds and just as i jumped - i fell back and landed with my hand on the metal base of the death trap”

“it’s not a death trap - it’s a trampoline!”

your cousin sings and baekho gives him a smile as you groan for him to go out and go find his mom

he happily obliges, waving to baekho with no regard for you - who broke their arm trying to keep him safe

baekho turns his attention back to you and sighs

“well - it isn’t broken. it is fractured though so im going to need to get you some anesthesia before i can set it.”

you nod slowly - making the mistake of thinking you can place your hand down on your thigh 

and then nearly cursing when the pain shoots up your arm

your hand flies up to cover your mouth as you apologize - good going, clowning ourselves infront of the hot doctor

but baekho waves it off - “i’ve been in this situation and all i did is curse, you’re all good.”

once you get the anesthesia and baekho gives another apology for if it still hurts - he gets to work on setting your arm back

he does it so fast you don’t even manage a small yelp - the only thing you do imagine is a 

“holy shit! oh sorry again-”

he just laughs, “no no - i expect it. anyway, you’ll have to wear a cast for just a bit, but hey - it’s not as bad as everyone says it is.”

you shake your head

“all this over a trampoline”

he shrugs, “believe me people have come in here doing dumber things. plus you were just trying to be a good cousin right?”

you feel all warm with how considerate he’s being, but you bat it away as soon as the feeling comes up

let’s not get a crush on a doctor that’s just doing their job!

baekho comes back and gets the cast on - he’s so gentle and careful that it’s kind of shocking someone so ,,,,,,,, imposing can be so soft

once the cast is on - you make a joke about how now you can go back to the party and get all the kids to sign

baekho’s eyes sparkle for a moment “can i be the first?”

you shyly agree and watch him pluck a pen from his front pocket, he writes something and then gives you a prescription for some pain meds in case your arm starts acting up

you have trouble getting off the examination bed, so once again baekho helps you with support around your waist

you finally look down when he leaves the room at what he wrote on your cast

and nearly stumble over and fracture your OTHER arm when you see it’s his number and the words

‘maybe you’ll want to go on a date with me when this is all healed up?’

for a second you don’t believe it - no way, right?

but when he comes back to see you off he smiles and you look at the cast then at him

“really?”

you ask

“only if you want.”

“i- i mean yes”

he grins, leaning forward with a bit of a teasing voice

 “in your own words: holy shit, i didn’t think you’d actually say yes!”

you momentarily think he’s playing a joke, but then you realize no he’s just being cutesy

you scrunch up your nose and go back 

“aren’t med students not supposed to curse?”

“aren’t people not supposed to break their arms on trampolines?”

you guys already have the couple banter down LOL

dating med school student baekho: obviously you don’t just start dating after one date - but really,,,,,,you and baekho have way more in common than you think, first of all you almost broke your hand trying to save some kids which baekho thinks is badass because he actually almost busted his knee wide open trying to save some stray kittens so like really match made in heaven amiright?, your first date - baekho jokes and says trampoline park but it’s really just dinner at this cool place that has live music and karaoke, and much to your surprise baekho isn’t only a visual god and a med student - he can also sing like an angel?, “hey are you like actually real - no way one person is all these talents put together?” “you flatter me, but believe me - i am real, here touch my five o’clock shadow-” “baekho!”, baekho introducing you to his friends like : this is the cute person i told you i met at the ER! and jonghyun is like omg nice to meet you- REN: HOLY BALLS YOU REALLY BROKE YOUR SHIT ON A TRAMPOLINE? AT A KIDS BIRTHDAY PARTY?, baekho promises not to bring you around his crazy friends after that but it’s fine - you get ren back one day by letting it slide that baekho has shown him the photos from wayback in highschool and ren is like: h and you're like: you tell anyone about the trampoline and it’s over for you, baekho watching you be vaguely threatening: hot, you have your own schedule and baekho is always dying with his residency one so a lot of your relationship is through text, which baekho thinks means: send my significant other 58947382 photos of me at the gym - but like you don’t complain, teasingly goes ‘we can go on a date~ we can go watch a movie OR you can come watch me do pull ups’ but you’re like why would i say no to that and baekho is suddenly a little flustered, you came to visit him one day and drop off his favorite lunch you know because you ~luv~ him and you saw him running through the ER with bear ears on his head after a bunch of kids in hospital gowns and you’re like w? and the nurse is like since it’s halloween he comes down here and plays with the kids and you’re like kang baekho you are ,,,,,,,,, an ANGEL i WAS RIGHT, unlike with nuest if you as much as mumble that something aches or you’re tired - baekho is like i will carry you. get onto my shoulders, get in my arms, let me carry you all the way home i dont care that it’s an hour away my arms will never get tired and you’re like baby chill im ok i just sneezed and he’s like,,,,,,,,,the offer still stands, minhyun was right when he warned you about ‘grizzly bear baekho’ which is just you watching him shove obscene amounts of food in his mouth without regard for napkins and you’re like ,,,,,,,,, oh my god ,,,,,,but also like you can’t take this away from him - he just worked 36 hours straight, bought you a matching addidas sweatpants outfit for your first anniversary and you were like awww these will be cute pajamas and he’s like maybe you can come run with me and you’re like wow are you trying to kill me?, does this cute and kinda dumb but actually nah just cute thing where he pulls your legs around his waist and starts naming the bones in your body and you’ve heard it a billion times but it’s still cute, he tickle fight - but also he cannot control himself so it always ends up more spicy than it started, you the first time you took baekho’s shirt off: wait pause tattoos? and he was like yeah don’t tell the professors thought, he really doesn’t care man yall could be in a hospital room, in the storage closet, at his house, hell he will kick jonghyun out if baekho is in the mood then to caution with it all, jonghyun passes the torch of waking baekho up to you but thankfully your kisses (sometimes more) tactics work better than him getting a slipper to the face, it’s cute you and him brush your teeth together in the morning hehe you help him shave sometimes its so domestic with him, when exam season comes around he puts you in his lap and opens his textbook and even though you fall asleep in ten minutes because ew medical terminology he just enjoys your warmth as he goes through the book, “if you keep kissing every three seconds we’re going to either get kicked out of this amusement park or you are both going to break your mouths” - ren at some point probably, he has moments where the stress gets to him and he just keeps pushing back his hair and grumbling about everything and it’s weird not to see his happy sunshine face but you jsut make it better with lots of cuddles and lots of snacks, baekho showing up to his residency with a big fluffy tiger toy and everyone is like ? and he’s like it’s my sweethearts birthday today so im giving them a present - this is mini baekho, ren: bursts out laughing, jonghyun: put it away before it gets confescated, minhyun: ,,,it’s cute, you send pics hugging mini baekho and baekho is like uwu and then you send a pic where you’re [redacted] and baekho is like OWO, you two can clown each other like smear ice cream cake in each others face or you can show up to the hospital christmas party looking hotter than any two humans combined or you can jsut stay in on your rare off days wrapped up in your pajamas - listening to music together and getting soft butterfly kisses, the duality - tripality idk it’s jsut so perfect with him no matter what, you two sleepy one night with baekho’s lips against your hair “kinda happy you fell off that trampoline all that time ago” you hitting him playfully “stop i was so embarrassed” him, yawning and kissing your temple “prettiest person ive ever seen come through those hospital doors back then,,,,,,,,and still now.”
