Synopsis
Summary: "I guess," Jungkook pauses momentarily to inhale a deep, bracing breath, "I would just want you to come to my work events and laugh at my jokes and don't correct people if they imply that we're doing it."
"Having sex, you mean," Jin clarifies gently, and Jungkook chokes on air. If his face was any redder, Jin would insist on taking him to the hospital. Jungkook clears his throat, obviously trying to play off the strangled, choked sound as a casual cough.
"Yes. Doing... sex."
(Hedge Fund wunderkind and Certified Awkward Gay Jungkook needs a sugar baby to show off at work, and Professional Competitive Eater and Objectively Beautiful Human Jin just wants to stop working shitty side-jobs. Fake Sugar Daddy AU. A trope and a half.)
Reactions and Reviews
As always, minverse’s charismatic writing makes this fic a delight - right until it hits you in the feels and you’re crying at 2 am when the couple you know were going to get together get together. A beautiful subversion of tropes![1]
so well written i loved it sm the whole concept was great but tweaked in the sense that the personalities of the characters weren’t usual so it made everything funny and just holistically unique! genuinely made me smile the whole way through pls read[2]
Fake sugar daddy AU, ples this is so cheesy and cute, seokjin is a competitive eater, jungkook is surrounded by assholes @ work, just boys fake dating, or fake sugar daddying / babying? really funny as per usual[3]
Also I fell in love with the characterization in this fic T-T I stayed up all night reading.[4]
OKAY so this is just amazing on so many levels it is the perfect balance of humor and angst and Other Things it is def worth ur while[5]
plot is easy to follow and ending is very satisfying. excellent appearances from the ot7. hilarious and cracky and soapy. author is clearly anti-capitalist, which!! go you!!![6]
SO FUNNY, I’m deadass serious when I say this is on my top 3 favorite fanfictions. No matter how many times I read this, I’m rolling on the ground with laughter and my heart adores this fic. It’s also sometimes hella sad and I stan this Jin. Do yourself a favor and read it~[7]
As the title already suggests, this is a fake sugar daddy au! It’s really well written and the characterisation is on point, not to forget that it’s funny and sweet! Also read this in one go because I apparently don’t have a life and this was too good to not read it in one go :D[8]
