Omggggg I just wanna vent to someone bc I had this test that got screwed over Bc of covid & I got a 60 but if I had gotten a fucking 63 I would’ve gotten full points. So now my final grade is docked 2 whole points!!! I talked to the professor and she said “I appreciate u trying to advocate for yourself but u should focus your efforts on studying for the final!” I’m so 😡 she’s so mean and she fucking cc’d the dean on the email! Why do I do anything Gracie omg I’m so pissed :/
oh my gosh anon im so incredibly sorry! the fact that the professor isnt being understanding, especially given the toll all this has had on peoples mental and physical health, is really messed up. im so sorry! maybe you can email back and be like “hey i am working really hard and being diligent abt my students for this class. if theres anything i can do to make up my points lost on the last test, please let me know id be able to do it and it would inherently help me for the final! thanks!” hope this helps!!! glad you could vent to me- youre always welcome to express ur feelings here!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
*cough*
Pardon.
In this fic, readers will encounter many nerd moments! Duh. We go to a comic con! And with this, we get a really cute and fun E2L dynamic of two people in a mutual friend group!
The mc and Taehyung have such a cute dynamic and the way the two fight is a little very adorable when reading back!
Also... The puns... Swoon. The corset. The summary. SUNNY I LOVE! I WAS LAUGHING SO MUCH WHEN I REALIZED THE PUNS!
Lastly. This fic has both a gay relationship and someone who uses they/them pronouns (I say this, as I don't want to assume jimin's identity. Pronouns and one's gender identity while related can be complexly related). I LOVE how Jimin uses they/them pronouns here. In fanfic were able to explore so much of the world and our identities! It is so fun to see exploration of of gender and sexuality in fanfic and to see a character modeled after someone who I really look up to exploring this in a fictional world gives me so much euphoria.

This was such a cute read!
My live reaction is under the read more.
Oh! Love Jimin's description! You do a good job at giving us a clear visual about which Harley Quinn they're dressed as!
Great setup for "him". I like the quick ways you show the tension between him and the mc!
Ohhhhhh! Opposites attract? What a fun bit of exposition showing how opposite they are! Or how opposite the mc sees them as!
😭😭😭 "I'm a rebel". Tae. ADD LOGOS! MAKE IT ALL COMPLEX AND FUN! 🤔 Also. Didn't we rebels wear orange? Or am I misremembering.
"As long as you can breath"... Is that foreshadowing? 👀
Interesting contrast between what the mc says Taehyung is normally like and how he's acting! Did confirmation bias make them see him this way? Or is he acting uncharacteristic? We shall find out!
🤣🤣🤣 Mc knowing not to fight Jungkook. I love
YES MC VENT ABT HIM! GET UR FRUSTRATION OUT!
Oop- the corset comes back with venom! Love the transition!
He's still so cocky abt this. 😭😭😭 Dudeeeeeeee
Tae is switching between cocky and kind... Quite inchresting. 🤔 disorienting too. I can imagine the mc feels similar. To have been laying into him and then wake up to him doing kind stuff and also being cocky. I like!
Sexual tension. Oh Jimin what are you on. ... But also... I think they're right. At least on Taehyung's side.
🤣🤣🤣 Tapping the can first. Love it.
Damn tae! Grabbing the MC's hand!!! Jimin is def right.
🤣 Of course he likes goading them. I wonder how different Taehyung is when he's not goading the mc.
🥴 Of course. Of course tae. That's exactly how u woo someone. Disagreeing with everything. Hot or not... Mite not be the best for a relationship. Lolol
Oh! Love your description of his laugh!
Hehehehe. Mayhaps the mc does like him... Reaction formation is def a real thing after all.
HELL YEAH! U GO MC!
Jimin having an out of body experience. Lolol. I'm laughing.
Omggggg. What a cute ending! I can't stop smiling!
Swoon | KTH
Pairing: Taehyung x Reader
Genre: fluff, enemies to lovers, non-Idol!AU
Rating: T
Warnings: swearing, kissing, Tae's wearing his red leather jacket from his Paris trip, we've also got Disco Jungkook and Harley Quinn Jimin in here
Word Count: 3.6k
Disclaimers: None other than obviously I don’t own BTS - they just inspire me
Summary: “You fainted…straight into my arms. You know, if you wanted my attention, you didn’t have to go to such extremes.”
A/N: This one's for the amazing @parkdatjimin! Mindy, you picked a great prompt that immediately screamed "TAEHYUNG" and "ENEMIES TO LOVERS" to me. I hope you enjoy!
Also, I don't think this really needs a warning, just a note - Jimin is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns in this fic.
Unbeta’d as usual! Please let me know what you think, I’d love to hear from you! 💕
Masterlist 💜 Find me on AO3 💜

“Jimin, come on! Let’s go!” Tapping your foot impatiently, you fidget slightly in your costume. “We’re gonna miss the first panel! What are we waiting for?”
Your roommate shoots you a “calm down” look that frankly would be a lot more effective if they weren’t currently dressed as Harley Quinn. They look phenomenal in their “Daddy’s Little Monster” crop top, blue and red satin booty shorts, and fishnets, tips of their blond hair dyed in shades to match the ensemble. But their serious expression does not jibe with the wild outfit as they sigh.
“Not everyone’s here yet. And they won’t let us hold seats in the hall, so… we wait.”
You frown, glancing at your friends, counting in your head. “Who is missing?”
“Um, well…”
“Oh, please no.” Not him. Not today.
Jimin twirls their baseball bat, not making eye contact, knowing if they look at you, they will instantly disintegrate beneath your fiery expression. “I’m sorry! Kookie invited him, okay?”
Kookie, aka Jungkook, aka Jimin’s boyfriend, aka the sweetest guy you know, glances up from where he’s propped against the wall, eyes going wide behind his oversized blue sunglasses at the mention of his name. You sigh, bubbling anger instantly bursting at his doe-eyed expression.
“Sorry, Noona. He asked if I was going to the convention and I said yes without thinking! I was just excited to talk about my costume.” He yanks on the giant lapels of his brightly colored shirt, other hand unconsciously scratching at the fake goatee that adorns his pretty face. Disco Tony Stark is definitely a choice, but damned if he’s not pulling it off.
“It’s okay, Kookie,” you grumble. Ugh, you’re too soft on him, and he knows it as he flashes you a happy grin. “I just hope he gets here soon, before the hall fills up.” Your favorite film franchise is kicking off the big comic convention today with a sneak peek at the latest sequel, and if you miss a single second, there will be hell to pay. “Or maybe he’ll flake out on this like he flakes out on our game nights.”
“Who flakes out?”
Your eyes automatically close in exasperation as you turn slowly to face the devil you’d just accidentally summoned.
Kim Taehyung. Aka Jungkook’s friend. Aka the massive thorn in your side.
The two of you have been at odds since the day you met. He came into your life when Jungkook and Jimin started dating, and from the jump, the two of you have totally clashed. Where you’re easily excitable, he’s subdued, even deadpan. Where you’re constantly raving about the amazing things you love, he’s always complaining, finding fault with those same things. It wouldn’t be so terrible if he didn’t insist on sharing his every thought with you. It’s like he lives to needle you.
Right now, he wears his standard bored expression, gorgeous face completely blank as he gazes at you, waiting for an answer. You don’t give him one, taking a moment to examine his costume. Tight black jeans, tight white t-shirt, bright red leather jacket. An eyebrow cocks beneath his fluffy dark curls.
“Well? Who flakes out?”
“Who are you supposed to be? James Dean?” you ask, ignoring his question again.
“I’m a rebel,” he informs you.
“Obviously,” you roll your eyes. “Like I said. James Dean.”
“No.” He pulls out a toy lightsaber from behind his back, flipping it on. The blue light illuminates his annoying smirk. “I’m a Rebel.”
“That’s not - you’re not - “
“Taehyung-ah!” In their harlequin makeup, Jimin’s normally cherubic smile looks absolutely demented. “Perfect timing, the first panel’s about to kick off.” They reach down and grab Jungkook’s hands, helping him to his feet. “C’mon, Puddin’, let’s go grab our seats.”
The rest of your friends fall in line as Jimin and Jungkook lead the way. Taehyung unfortunately ends up in lockstep with you. Because of course he does.
“Nice costume,” he intones quietly, and you smooth several of the verdant leaves trailing from your hips, waiting for him to drop the snarky comment that’s likely hanging on the tip of his tongue. Maybe something about how homemade your costume looks… which it is. You’ve been working for weeks on your Poison Ivy cosplay. Finding a corset in just the right shade of green took the longest amount of time.
The second longest came this morning, when Jimin had to painstakingly lace you into said corset. You squirm a little, wishing they hadn’t tied you in so damn tight. But as long as you can breathe, you’ll survive.
It’s definitely the most amount of skin you’ve ever shown at a convention, with your curves overflowing both above and below the constricting bodice. At the last minute, you nearly balked, thinking you’d be too much, until Jimin gave you a pep talk that essentially boiled down to “Own your power.” Somehow, it worked. Overall, you’re very pleased with your costume, which is why you’re expecting Taehyung to burst your bubble about it any second now.
But he merely holds the door to the hall open for you with a hint of a smile. Narrowing your eyes, you waltz past him, taking a seat next to Jimin.
“I have been waiting all year for this day, and I swear to God if he ruins it, I’m taking you out, Minnie,” you declare to your roommate with a deadly serious expression. They don't ask you to clarify who you meant by ‘he.’ They already know.
“Me? But Kookie invited him!”
“Yes, but Kookie’s a muscle pig! I know my limits!” Jimin just tuts as you glare. “God, he’s the worst. He can’t even mash up a costume properly.”
“I think it’s kinda clever, actually. And you have to admit, he looks fantastic in that outfit.” Jimin tips their head in admiration as Taehyung takes a seat, jeans straining to contain his muscular thighs. Not that you noticed. “I wanna thank his mother for a butt like that.”
“No, it’s not, and no, I do not,” you hiss back before falling silent as the moderator takes the stage. “And don’t you dare quote ‘Shoop’ when you speak of that man!”
Whatever brief burst of madness prompted Taehyung to actually compliment you before the first panel doesn’t last. As soon as your group filters out to head to the next session, he’s back on his bullshit. You make the mistake of mentioning how you liked the book better than the first movie, and he pounces, dragging you into a debate. He does the same thing after the next panel, saying just the right (obnoxious) thing to pull you into another quarrel, and again after that. By the time your friends scatter for lunch, between the snug corset digging into your skin, and the irritating man trying to get under your skin, you’ve had enough.
Out of your group, only you, Jimin, and Taehyung want fish skewers, so you queue up in the long line at the kiosk. You’re doing your best to tune Taehyung out as he and Jimin discuss the last event, a Q&A session with one of your favorite authors in which she’d dropped major hints about the identity of the mysterious supervillain from her latest series, to your absolute delight.
Taehyung, naturally, was not impressed.
“I can’t believe she just said that!” Jimin shakes their head as the line slowly shuffles forward. “She basically confirmed it’s been Dr. Choi all along.”
“Nope. There’s no way it’s going to be Dr. Choi!”
Gritting your teeth, you try to focus on the colorful costumes around you. Breathe in, breathe out, ignore the asshole.
“But everything she said lines up with his character! Why else would she say that stuff?”
Taehyung huffs a quick laugh through his nose. You know that sound. It’s his ‘Oh, you sweet summer child’ laugh. So patronizing. Your fingers curl into fists. Forget thorn, he's a giant prick.
“That was clearly just a publicity stunt. In a day, she’ll be all over social media, claiming her comments were taken out of context. Mark my words.” He sniffs. “Her little ploy is as obvious as her plots.”
“Oh my god, will you just shut up already?”
Jimin and Taehyung both blink in surprise as you round on them.
“What did I say?” Jimin asks, looking wounded.
“Not you, Minnie! Him!” You shove your pointer finger directly into Taehyung’s chest. “Just. Shut. Up!”
For once, Taehyung’s impassive expression drops, just as his mouth does as he gapes at you. But you’re too frustrated to bask in the fact that you’ve finally wiped that blasé look off his face, and now that you’ve blown your gasket, you’re going to vent it all.
“I am sick and tired of you always picking on everything! Anything and everything that I like, you just have to come in with your horrible takes and rude comments and just pick, pick, pick! Like some fucking vulture that feeds on joy - you just gotta rip it apart!”
“I don’t - “
“Just let people enjoy things, okay?? You don’t have to like them! Just let them have their fun!”
You’re vaguely aware of your roommate backing away as you growl at Taehyung, jabbing him again and again with your finger. Jimin’s never seen this side of you. You’ve never seen it either. It’s just the effect Taehyung has on you, making your face warm and your chest heave as you continue to lay into him.
“Babe, don’t you think - “
“No! Stay out of this, Jimin.” People are giving you a wide berth now, the line for the kiosk having zigzagged around the three of you long ago, but you don’t care. There’s no stopping the head of steam you’ve built up. “God, why are you even here? Nothing makes you happy! You don’t like anything!”
“That’s not true!” Taehyung finally snaps out of his stupor as you break off, panting for breath. “I like plenty of things! I came here because - “
“Because you wanted to ruin my day! You can’t let me have one day of fun without fighting with me about something, can you? Well, fine! Let’s fight!” There’s a sheen of sweat breaking out on your forehead. Is it the heat from the food stands that’s making you feel this hot? And why can’t you catch your damn breath??
“Whoa, okay, let’s just put a pin in that, uh, invitation and go outside. Maybe we should get some fresh air,” Jimin suggests in a soothing tone, gesturing to the entrance to the main atrium, “because I think - hey, babe, are you okay?”
Those fucking laces.
The world goes black.

When you reopen your eyes, Taehyung is staring at you. So is Jimin.
And so is an entire crowd of strangers standing in a ring around the three of you.
“What the fuhh…” you trail off, looking around. You’re out in the main atrium, but you don’t remember walking out here. The marble tiles are cold under your bare shoulders and barely covered ass. “Why am I on the floor?”
“It’s okay. You just passed out a little,” Jimin says, a gentle hand holding yours.
“I did?” Your head spins slightly as you sit up. The gawkers begin to start to disperse.
“The event EMTs checked you out. Said you were probably having trouble breathing.” Jimin looks a little abashed. “Guess I tied your laces too tight. Sorry. I loosened them a little before he laid you down.”
“He? He who? One of the EMTs?”
Jimin continues to look chagrined.
Taehyung smirks. “‘He’ as in me.” He straightens up, tossing his dark curls out of his eyes. “You fainted…straight into my arms. You know, if you wanted my attention, you didn’t have to go to such extremes.”
Heat scorches your neck. “Trust me, you are the last person whose attention I want!” Jimin pulls you to your feet, but you wave them off when they try to help you walk. “I’m okay, Minnie, I can walk on my own!”
But just as you finish your angry declaration, your knees buckle slightly. Before you can blink, Taehyung’s arm is around you, propping you up. He guides you towards a cluster of chairs by the windows.
“Come on,” he murmurs warmly, voice so unlike his usual aloof tone of superiority. “Why don’t you sit here for a minute? Let me get you a soda. Maybe some sugar would help.”
“Uh. Sure. Thanks.” You glance at Jimin, who shrugs at your confusion, then nods.
“Good idea, Tae. Thank you.”
As soon as Taehyung’s out of earshot, Jimin pinches you.
“Ow! Why?”
“He likes you!”
“What? No, he doesn’t!” You rub your arm where their fingers tweaked you, flabbergasted by their sudden proclamation.
“Yes, he does! How did I miss it?” They run their fingers through their hair, letting the shiny locks flop back into place. “It makes sense now! All that bickering was just sexual tension!”
“Uh, nothing makes sense, especially you right now! And why the pinching??”
“Sorry, I just got excited.” Jimin grins, and you roll your eyes.
“But what the hell makes you think he’s into me? Because he’s buying me a Coke after I told him off?”
Jimin leans back in their seat, still smiling smugly. “‘Told him off’ is putting it mildly. I know I told you to own your power, but damn! No, I’m referring to the way he reacted when you passed out. I’ve never seen someone look so panicked. If I hadn’t been freaking out myself, I would’ve found it cute.”
You clutch Jimin’s hand, giving them a little squeeze. “Sorry I gave you a scare. I really do feel okay right now. But you’re wrong.”
“Mmm, I don’t know. You didn’t see his face when the EMTs were checking you over.” Jimin shakes their head. “He was so worried. I’m telling you, he’s got it bad."
Taehyung strolls back out of the food court, effectively ending the conversation. He holds out a can and you take it with a barely audible thank you.
As if they were waiting for a cue, Jimin jumps up. “If you think you’ll be okay here, I’m gonna go find the others and let them know what they missed,” they announce, barely waiting for your nod before they spin on their heel and skip off towards the main ballroom, baseball bat swinging merrily.
Leaving you and Taehyung sitting in awkward silence.
You tap the top of the soda can before cracking it open. Taehyung notes the action, eyebrow lifting again. “You afraid I shook that up first?”
“I wouldn’t put it past you,” you scowl reflexively before noting the soft smile on his face. “What?”
“Nothing.” Your glare informs him that you don’t believe him. “I’m just glad you’re okay.”
“Hmm,” you hum, taking a sip.
“You don’t believe me?” he drawls, looking slightly offended.
“Taehyung. I never believe anything that comes out of your mouth. What makes you think I’m going to start now?” Setting the can on an empty chair next to you, you try to cross your arms, but the corset’s too stiff, so you let your hands rest on your thighs.
He blinks slowly. “Well, I suppose I could show you instead. Seeing is believing, right?” And one of his hands comes to rest on yours.
“Uh…” The feel of his fingers tapping lightly on the back of your hand freezes you completely. For once, you’re at a loss for words. However, Taehyung is not.
“I know we have our… disagreements… but I do enjoy your company,” he states matter-of-factly, as if he’s telling you something mundane like what time it is instead of confessing his true feelings. If you closed your eyes, you’d recognize that tone as his usual detached languor. Except now, staring at his expression, you realize - he’s nervous. And overcompensating by trying to sound as calm and collected as possible.
But his eyes give him away.
“I will also admit that I have perhaps fallen into a habit of goading you. A little.”
“A little!”
He frowns, fingers stilling. His hand is so warm, heat leaching into you where his skin touches yours. “Fine. A lot. I can’t help myself. It’s just… you’re so cute when you’re angry.”
“I’m - what?”
Taehyung leans forward, seeming rather pleased with himself for shocking you with his statement. There’s that self-satisfied smirk of his again. But that glimmer in his eyes… he looks… fond?
Oh god, Minnie’s right, aren’t they?
“Do you remember the first time we met? At Kook-ah’s party?” Speechless, you just nod at his question. “I thought you were so pretty that I got a little tongue-tied. You tried to talk to me and asked me what I thought about some movie that you’d just seen, and I kind of shrugged, because I couldn’t speak. You took that to mean I didn’t like it, and immediately launched into a monologue about how misunderstood the film was and so on,” he waves his hand in the air.
Thanks to an intense flip-cup tournament, that night is mostly a blur, but you do somewhat remember getting into an argument with Taehyung as soon as you’d met him. But you definitely don’t remember him being tongue-tied, not that night or any other since you’ve known him.
“But you’ve never had any problems talking around me! I’d even say you talk too much!”
He laughs, and suddenly he’s smiling at you, this ridiculously sweet, kinda boxy smile, and your heart leaps in your chest.
“That’s because I learned that night how you’re even more beautiful when you’re fired up about something. When you speak with passion…” He trails off, shaking his head. “I actually agree with a lot of your opinions, you know. But I can’t resist pretending to disagree, just to watch you light up. It’s addictive.”
You’ve not noticed until this moment how thick his eyelashes are, as he leans even closer. Or how long and graceful his fingers are as he grasps your hand off the table, cradling it in his lap.
“I’m sorry. I guess I took it too far. I know how excited you are to be here today, so I’m sorry if I ruined it.”
If you weren’t already stunned, that statement would’ve done it. Kim Taehyung apologizing? The two of you are sitting thigh to thigh now, your hand still between his.
“Um. Well. Thank you?”
“You said earlier that you don’t know why I’m here today. Do you really not know?”
Tearing your gaze away from where you were staring at his hands, you glance at his face. You know, all in all, it’s really not a bad face.
You must have a funny expression on your own, because he laughs, this low chuckle that makes your chest hum, like he’s hit a frequency that resonates only there.
“Why are you laughing?” you ask, eyes dropping to his lips.
“Because you make me happy.” He’s so close, you can feel his warm breath on your face. “That’s why I’m here. To be near you.”
“Noona!”
As if pulled sharply by invisible strings, you and Taehyung snap apart, his hands dropping yours. Your head swivels in the direction of Jungkook’s voice to see him bounding towards the cluster of chairs, your other friends in tow.
He drops to his knees in front of you, cupping your cheek as his worried eyes sweep over your face. “Are you okay?? Minnie told us what happened.”
Okay, maybe you’re right to be so soft for this kid. “I’m okay, Kookie. I appreciate the concern, though.”
“She’s fine, Kook-ah,” Taehyung mutters, suddenly standing. “Here. Have a seat.”
Dazed once again, you watch as Taehyung ambles off. Jungkook and the rest are asking you questions, but you’re not listening. There’s annoyance roiling in your belly again, but it’s not from anything Taehyung said this time.
It’s for the interruption.
In five steps you’ve caught up to Taehyung, who merely raises his eyebrows when you tug on his arm. He doesn’t say a word as you grab him by the nape of his neck. Doesn’t even breathe as you guide his face towards yours.
But as soon as your lips touch his, he comes alive. His arms lock around you, drawing you in. He tilts his head to bring you closer, pressing more of his mouth against yours. There’s an entire room full of strangers around you, but you couldn’t care less. Eyes fluttering shut, you lean into him, fingers lacing through his thick hair. He lets out a little moan as you accidentally tug on the silky strands and the sound, and immediately you repeat the action, drawing another gentle groan.
He pulls away then, cheeks flushed as he gazes at you. “Probably shouldn’t do too much of that here,” he murmurs in a deep timbre.
“Eh, it’s comic con. I’m sure they’ve seen stranger than a Jedi and a supervillain making out,” you grin as you take his hand, leading him to a quiet corner of the atrium. A glance at your friends finds them all mid-gawk. Jimin in particular looks like they’re having an out-of-body experience.
You know the feeling.
“I thought you were pretty, too,” you admit shyly.
Taehyung blinks. “What?”
“When we met. I - I thought you were the prettiest guy I’d ever seen. And I live with Jimin and Kookie.”
Taehyung’s boxy smile returns. He brushes gentle fingertips over your knuckles. “So, are we okay?”
“We will be. Once you’re made up for all that time wasted arguing.”
The warmth in his gaze overwhelms you. Makes you want to wrap yourself up in it and never leave. “That’s a lot to make up for.”
“Yep. Better get to work,” you whisper before he captures your mouth with his.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
*cough*
Pardon.
In this fic, readers will encounter many nerd moments! Duh. We go to a comic con! And with this, we get a really cute and fun E2L dynamic of two people in a mutual friend group!
The mc and Taehyung have such a cute dynamic and the way the two fight is a little very adorable when reading back!
Also... The puns... Swoon. The corset. The summary. SUNNY I LOVE! I WAS LAUGHING SO MUCH WHEN I REALIZED THE PUNS!
Lastly. This fic has both a gay relationship and someone who uses they/them pronouns (I say this, as I don't want to assume jimin's identity. Pronouns and one's gender identity while related can be complexly related). I LOVE how Jimin uses they/them pronouns here. In fanfic were able to explore so much of the world and our identities! It is so fun to see exploration of of gender and sexuality in fanfic and to see a character modeled after someone who I really look up to exploring this in a fictional world gives me so much euphoria.

This was such a cute read!
My live reaction is under the read more.
Oh! Love Jimin's description! You do a good job at giving us a clear visual about which Harley Quinn they're dressed as!
Great setup for "him". I like the quick ways you show the tension between him and the mc!
Ohhhhhh! Opposites attract? What a fun bit of exposition showing how opposite they are! Or how opposite the mc sees them as!
😭😭😭 "I'm a rebel". Tae. ADD LOGOS! MAKE IT ALL COMPLEX AND FUN! 🤔 Also. Didn't we rebels wear orange? Or am I misremembering.
"As long as you can breath"... Is that foreshadowing? 👀
Interesting contrast between what the mc says Taehyung is normally like and how he's acting! Did confirmation bias make them see him this way? Or is he acting uncharacteristic? We shall find out!
🤣🤣🤣 Mc knowing not to fight Jungkook. I love
YES MC VENT ABT HIM! GET UR FRUSTRATION OUT!
Oop- the corset comes back with venom! Love the transition!
He's still so cocky abt this. 😭😭😭 Dudeeeeeeee
Tae is switching between cocky and kind... Quite inchresting. 🤔 disorienting too. I can imagine the mc feels similar. To have been laying into him and then wake up to him doing kind stuff and also being cocky. I like!
Sexual tension. Oh Jimin what are you on. ... But also... I think they're right. At least on Taehyung's side.
🤣🤣🤣 Tapping the can first. Love it.
Damn tae! Grabbing the MC's hand!!! Jimin is def right.
🤣 Of course he likes goading them. I wonder how different Taehyung is when he's not goading the mc.
🥴 Of course. Of course tae. That's exactly how u woo someone. Disagreeing with everything. Hot or not... Mite not be the best for a relationship. Lolol
Oh! Love your description of his laugh!
Hehehehe. Mayhaps the mc does like him... Reaction formation is def a real thing after all.
HELL YEAH! U GO MC!
Jimin having an out of body experience. Lolol. I'm laughing.
Omggggg. What a cute ending! I can't stop smiling!
Swoon | KTH

Also, I don't think this really needs a warning, just a note - Jimin is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns in this fic.
Unbeta’d as usual! Please let me know what you think, I’d love to hear from you! 💕
Masterlist 💜 Find me on AO3 💜

“Jimin, come on! Let’s go!” Tapping your foot impatiently, you fidget slightly in your costume. “We’re gonna miss the first panel! What are we waiting for?”
Your roommate shoots you a “calm down” look that frankly would be a lot more effective if they weren’t currently dressed as Harley Quinn. They look phenomenal in their “Daddy’s Little Monster” crop top, blue and red satin booty shorts, and fishnets, tips of their blond hair dyed in shades to match the ensemble. But their serious expression does not jibe with the wild outfit as they sigh.
“Not everyone’s here yet. And they won’t let us hold seats in the hall, so… we wait.”
You frown, glancing at your friends, counting in your head. “Who is missing?”
“Um, well…”
“Oh, please no.” Not him. Not today.
Jimin twirls their baseball bat, not making eye contact, knowing if they look at you, they will instantly disintegrate beneath your fiery expression. “I’m sorry! Kookie invited him, okay?”
Kookie, aka Jungkook, aka Jimin’s boyfriend, aka the sweetest guy you know, glances up from where he’s propped against the wall, eyes going wide behind his oversized blue sunglasses at the mention of his name. You sigh, bubbling anger instantly bursting at his doe-eyed expression.
“Sorry, Noona. He asked if I was going to the convention and I said yes without thinking! I was just excited to talk about my costume.” He yanks on the giant lapels of his brightly colored shirt, other hand unconsciously scratching at the fake goatee that adorns his pretty face. Disco Tony Stark is definitely a choice, but damned if he’s not pulling it off.
“It’s okay, Kookie,” you grumble. Ugh, you’re too soft on him, and he knows it as he flashes you a happy grin. “I just hope he gets here soon, before the hall fills up.” Your favorite film franchise is kicking off the big comic convention today with a sneak peek at the latest sequel, and if you miss a single second, there will be hell to pay. “Or maybe he’ll flake out on this like he flakes out on our game nights.”
“Who flakes out?”
Your eyes automatically close in exasperation as you turn slowly to face the devil you’d just accidentally summoned.
Kim Taehyung. Aka Jungkook’s friend. Aka the massive thorn in your side.
The two of you have been at odds since the day you met. He came into your life when Jungkook and Jimin started dating, and from the jump, the two of you have totally clashed. Where you’re easily excitable, he’s subdued, even deadpan. Where you’re constantly raving about the amazing things you love, he’s always complaining, finding fault with those same things. It wouldn’t be so terrible if he didn’t insist on sharing his every thought with you. It’s like he lives to needle you.
Right now, he wears his standard bored expression, gorgeous face completely blank as he gazes at you, waiting for an answer. You don’t give him one, taking a moment to examine his costume. Tight black jeans, tight white t-shirt, bright red leather jacket. An eyebrow cocks beneath his fluffy dark curls.
“Well? Who flakes out?”
“Who are you supposed to be? James Dean?” you ask, ignoring his question again.
“I’m a rebel,” he informs you.
“Obviously,” you roll your eyes. “Like I said. James Dean.”
“No.” He pulls out a toy lightsaber from behind his back, flipping it on. The blue light illuminates his annoying smirk. “I’m a Rebel.”
“That’s not - you’re not - “
“Taehyung-ah!” In their harlequin makeup, Jimin’s normally cherubic smile looks absolutely demented. “Perfect timing, the first panel’s about to kick off.” They reach down and grab Jungkook’s hands, helping him to his feet. “C’mon, Puddin’, let’s go grab our seats.”
The rest of your friends fall in line as Jimin and Jungkook lead the way. Taehyung unfortunately ends up in lockstep with you. Because of course he does.
“Nice costume,” he intones quietly, and you smooth several of the verdant leaves trailing from your hips, waiting for him to drop the snarky comment that’s likely hanging on the tip of his tongue. Maybe something about how homemade your costume looks… which it is. You’ve been working for weeks on your Poison Ivy cosplay. Finding a corset in just the right shade of green took the longest amount of time.
The second longest came this morning, when Jimin had to painstakingly lace you into said corset. You squirm a little, wishing they hadn’t tied you in so damn tight. But as long as you can breathe, you’ll survive.
It’s definitely the most amount of skin you’ve ever shown at a convention, with your curves overflowing both above and below the constricting bodice. At the last minute, you nearly balked, thinking you’d be too much, until Jimin gave you a pep talk that essentially boiled down to “Own your power.” Somehow, it worked. Overall, you’re very pleased with your costume, which is why you’re expecting Taehyung to burst your bubble about it any second now.
But he merely holds the door to the hall open for you with a hint of a smile. Narrowing your eyes, you waltz past him, taking a seat next to Jimin.
“I have been waiting all year for this day, and I swear to God if he ruins it, I’m taking you out, Minnie,” you declare to your roommate with a deadly serious expression. They don't ask you to clarify who you meant by ‘he.’ They already know.
“Me? But Kookie invited him!”
“Yes, but Kookie’s a muscle pig! I know my limits!” Jimin just tuts as you glare. “God, he’s the worst. He can’t even mash up a costume properly.”
“I think it’s kinda clever, actually. And you have to admit, he looks fantastic in that outfit.” Jimin tips their head in admiration as Taehyung takes a seat, jeans straining to contain his muscular thighs. Not that you noticed. “I wanna thank his mother for a butt like that.”
“No, it’s not, and no, I do not,” you hiss back before falling silent as the moderator takes the stage. “And don’t you dare quote ‘Shoop’ when you speak of that man!”
Whatever brief burst of madness prompted Taehyung to actually compliment you before the first panel doesn’t last. As soon as your group filters out to head to the next session, he’s back on his bullshit. You make the mistake of mentioning how you liked the book better than the first movie, and he pounces, dragging you into a debate. He does the same thing after the next panel, saying just the right (obnoxious) thing to pull you into another quarrel, and again after that. By the time your friends scatter for lunch, between the snug corset digging into your skin, and the irritating man trying to get under your skin, you’ve had enough.
Out of your group, only you, Jimin, and Taehyung want fish skewers, so you queue up in the long line at the kiosk. You’re doing your best to tune Taehyung out as he and Jimin discuss the last event, a Q&A session with one of your favorite authors in which she’d dropped major hints about the identity of the mysterious supervillain from her latest series, to your absolute delight.
Taehyung, naturally, was not impressed.
“I can’t believe she just said that!” Jimin shakes their head as the line slowly shuffles forward. “She basically confirmed it’s been Dr. Choi all along.”
“Nope. There’s no way it’s going to be Dr. Choi!”
Gritting your teeth, you try to focus on the colorful costumes around you. Breathe in, breathe out, ignore the asshole.
“But everything she said lines up with his character! Why else would she say that stuff?”
Taehyung huffs a quick laugh through his nose. You know that sound. It’s his ‘Oh, you sweet summer child’ laugh. So patronizing. Your fingers curl into fists. Forget thorn, he's a giant prick.
“That was clearly just a publicity stunt. In a day, she’ll be all over social media, claiming her comments were taken out of context. Mark my words.” He sniffs. “Her little ploy is as obvious as her plots.”
“Oh my god, will you just shut up already?”
Jimin and Taehyung both blink in surprise as you round on them.
“What did I say?” Jimin asks, looking wounded.
“Not you, Minnie! Him!” You shove your pointer finger directly into Taehyung’s chest. “Just. Shut. Up!”
For once, Taehyung’s impassive expression drops, just as his mouth does as he gapes at you. But you’re too frustrated to bask in the fact that you’ve finally wiped that blasé look off his face, and now that you’ve blown your gasket, you’re going to vent it all.
“I am sick and tired of you always picking on everything! Anything and everything that I like, you just have to come in with your horrible takes and rude comments and just pick, pick, pick! Like some fucking vulture that feeds on joy - you just gotta rip it apart!”
“I don’t - “
“Just let people enjoy things, okay?? You don’t have to like them! Just let them have their fun!”
You’re vaguely aware of your roommate backing away as you growl at Taehyung, jabbing him again and again with your finger. Jimin’s never seen this side of you. You’ve never seen it either. It’s just the effect Taehyung has on you, making your face warm and your chest heave as you continue to lay into him.
“Babe, don’t you think - “
“No! Stay out of this, Jimin.” People are giving you a wide berth now, the line for the kiosk having zigzagged around the three of you long ago, but you don’t care. There’s no stopping the head of steam you’ve built up. “God, why are you even here? Nothing makes you happy! You don’t like anything!”
“That’s not true!” Taehyung finally snaps out of his stupor as you break off, panting for breath. “I like plenty of things! I came here because - “
“Because you wanted to ruin my day! You can’t let me have one day of fun without fighting with me about something, can you? Well, fine! Let’s fight!” There’s a sheen of sweat breaking out on your forehead. Is it the heat from the food stands that’s making you feel this hot? And why can’t you catch your damn breath??
“Whoa, okay, let’s just put a pin in that, uh, invitation and go outside. Maybe we should get some fresh air,” Jimin suggests in a soothing tone, gesturing to the entrance to the main atrium, “because I think - hey, babe, are you okay?”
Those fucking laces.
The world goes black.

When you reopen your eyes, Taehyung is staring at you. So is Jimin.
And so is an entire crowd of strangers standing in a ring around the three of you.
“What the fuhh…” you trail off, looking around. You’re out in the main atrium, but you don’t remember walking out here. The marble tiles are cold under your bare shoulders and barely covered ass. “Why am I on the floor?”
“It’s okay. You just passed out a little,” Jimin says, a gentle hand holding yours.
“I did?” Your head spins slightly as you sit up. The gawkers begin to start to disperse.
“The event EMTs checked you out. Said you were probably having trouble breathing.” Jimin looks a little abashed. “Guess I tied your laces too tight. Sorry. I loosened them a little before he laid you down.”
“He? He who? One of the EMTs?”
Jimin continues to look chagrined.
Taehyung smirks. “‘He’ as in me.” He straightens up, tossing his dark curls out of his eyes. “You fainted…straight into my arms. You know, if you wanted my attention, you didn’t have to go to such extremes.”
Heat scorches your neck. “Trust me, you are the last person whose attention I want!” Jimin pulls you to your feet, but you wave them off when they try to help you walk. “I’m okay, Minnie, I can walk on my own!”
But just as you finish your angry declaration, your knees buckle slightly. Before you can blink, Taehyung’s arm is around you, propping you up. He guides you towards a cluster of chairs by the windows.
“Come on,” he murmurs warmly, voice so unlike his usual aloof tone of superiority. “Why don’t you sit here for a minute? Let me get you a soda. Maybe some sugar would help.”
“Uh. Sure. Thanks.” You glance at Jimin, who shrugs at your confusion, then nods.
“Good idea, Tae. Thank you.”
As soon as Taehyung’s out of earshot, Jimin pinches you.
“Ow! Why?”
“He likes you!”
“What? No, he doesn’t!” You rub your arm where their fingers tweaked you, flabbergasted by their sudden proclamation.
“Yes, he does! How did I miss it?” They run their fingers through their hair, letting the shiny locks flop back into place. “It makes sense now! All that bickering was just sexual tension!”
“Uh, nothing makes sense, especially you right now! And why the pinching??”
“Sorry, I just got excited.” Jimin grins, and you roll your eyes.
“But what the hell makes you think he’s into me? Because he’s buying me a Coke after I told him off?”
Jimin leans back in their seat, still smiling smugly. “‘Told him off’ is putting it mildly. I know I told you to own your power, but damn! No, I’m referring to the way he reacted when you passed out. I’ve never seen someone look so panicked. If I hadn’t been freaking out myself, I would’ve found it cute.”
You clutch Jimin’s hand, giving them a little squeeze. “Sorry I gave you a scare. I really do feel okay right now. But you’re wrong.”
“Mmm, I don’t know. You didn’t see his face when the EMTs were checking you over.” Jimin shakes their head. “He was so worried. I’m telling you, he’s got it bad."
Taehyung strolls back out of the food court, effectively ending the conversation. He holds out a can and you take it with a barely audible thank you.
As if they were waiting for a cue, Jimin jumps up. “If you think you’ll be okay here, I’m gonna go find the others and let them know what they missed,” they announce, barely waiting for your nod before they spin on their heel and skip off towards the main ballroom, baseball bat swinging merrily.
Leaving you and Taehyung sitting in awkward silence.
You tap the top of the soda can before cracking it open. Taehyung notes the action, eyebrow lifting again. “You afraid I shook that up first?”
“I wouldn’t put it past you,” you scowl reflexively before noting the soft smile on his face. “What?”
“Nothing.” Your glare informs him that you don’t believe him. “I’m just glad you’re okay.”
“Hmm,” you hum, taking a sip.
“You don’t believe me?” he drawls, looking slightly offended.
“Taehyung. I never believe anything that comes out of your mouth. What makes you think I’m going to start now?” Setting the can on an empty chair next to you, you try to cross your arms, but the corset’s too stiff, so you let your hands rest on your thighs.
He blinks slowly. “Well, I suppose I could show you instead. Seeing is believing, right?” And one of his hands comes to rest on yours.
“Uh…” The feel of his fingers tapping lightly on the back of your hand freezes you completely. For once, you’re at a loss for words. However, Taehyung is not.
“I know we have our… disagreements… but I do enjoy your company,” he states matter-of-factly, as if he’s telling you something mundane like what time it is instead of confessing his true feelings. If you closed your eyes, you’d recognize that tone as his usual detached languor. Except now, staring at his expression, you realize - he’s nervous. And overcompensating by trying to sound as calm and collected as possible.
But his eyes give him away.
“I will also admit that I have perhaps fallen into a habit of goading you. A little.”
“A little!”
He frowns, fingers stilling. His hand is so warm, heat leaching into you where his skin touches yours. “Fine. A lot. I can’t help myself. It’s just… you’re so cute when you’re angry.”
“I’m - what?”
Taehyung leans forward, seeming rather pleased with himself for shocking you with his statement. There’s that self-satisfied smirk of his again. But that glimmer in his eyes… he looks… fond?
Oh god, Minnie’s right, aren’t they?
“Do you remember the first time we met? At Kook-ah’s party?” Speechless, you just nod at his question. “I thought you were so pretty that I got a little tongue-tied. You tried to talk to me and asked me what I thought about some movie that you’d just seen, and I kind of shrugged, because I couldn’t speak. You took that to mean I didn’t like it, and immediately launched into a monologue about how misunderstood the film was and so on,” he waves his hand in the air.
Thanks to an intense flip-cup tournament, that night is mostly a blur, but you do somewhat remember getting into an argument with Taehyung as soon as you’d met him. But you definitely don’t remember him being tongue-tied, not that night or any other since you’ve known him.
“But you’ve never had any problems talking around me! I’d even say you talk too much!”
He laughs, and suddenly he’s smiling at you, this ridiculously sweet, kinda boxy smile, and your heart leaps in your chest.
“That’s because I learned that night how you’re even more beautiful when you’re fired up about something. When you speak with passion…” He trails off, shaking his head. “I actually agree with a lot of your opinions, you know. But I can’t resist pretending to disagree, just to watch you light up. It’s addictive.”
You’ve not noticed until this moment how thick his eyelashes are, as he leans even closer. Or how long and graceful his fingers are as he grasps your hand off the table, cradling it in his lap.
“I’m sorry. I guess I took it too far. I know how excited you are to be here today, so I’m sorry if I ruined it.”
If you weren’t already stunned, that statement would’ve done it. Kim Taehyung apologizing? The two of you are sitting thigh to thigh now, your hand still between his.
“Um. Well. Thank you?”
“You said earlier that you don’t know why I’m here today. Do you really not know?”
Tearing your gaze away from where you were staring at his hands, you glance at his face. You know, all in all, it’s really not a bad face.
You must have a funny expression on your own, because he laughs, this low chuckle that makes your chest hum, like he’s hit a frequency that resonates only there.
“Why are you laughing?” you ask, eyes dropping to his lips.
“Because you make me happy.” He’s so close, you can feel his warm breath on your face. “That’s why I’m here. To be near you.”
“Noona!”
As if pulled sharply by invisible strings, you and Taehyung snap apart, his hands dropping yours. Your head swivels in the direction of Jungkook’s voice to see him bounding towards the cluster of chairs, your other friends in tow.
He drops to his knees in front of you, cupping your cheek as his worried eyes sweep over your face. “Are you okay?? Minnie told us what happened.”
Okay, maybe you’re right to be so soft for this kid. “I’m okay, Kookie. I appreciate the concern, though.”
“She’s fine, Kook-ah,” Taehyung mutters, suddenly standing. “Here. Have a seat.”
Dazed once again, you watch as Taehyung ambles off. Jungkook and the rest are asking you questions, but you’re not listening. There’s annoyance roiling in your belly again, but it’s not from anything Taehyung said this time.
It’s for the interruption.
In five steps you’ve caught up to Taehyung, who merely raises his eyebrows when you tug on his arm. He doesn’t say a word as you grab him by the nape of his neck. Doesn’t even breathe as you guide his face towards yours.
But as soon as your lips touch his, he comes alive. His arms lock around you, drawing you in. He tilts his head to bring you closer, pressing more of his mouth against yours. There’s an entire room full of strangers around you, but you couldn’t care less. Eyes fluttering shut, you lean into him, fingers lacing through his thick hair. He lets out a little moan as you accidentally tug on the silky strands and the sound, and immediately you repeat the action, drawing another gentle groan.
He pulls away then, cheeks flushed as he gazes at you. “Probably shouldn’t do too much of that here,” he murmurs in a deep timbre.
“Eh, it’s comic con. I’m sure they’ve seen stranger than a Jedi and a supervillain making out,” you grin as you take his hand, leading him to a quiet corner of the atrium. A glance at your friends finds them all mid-gawk. Jimin in particular looks like they’re having an out-of-body experience.
You know the feeling.
“I thought you were pretty, too,” you admit shyly.
Taehyung blinks. “What?”
“When we met. I - I thought you were the prettiest guy I’d ever seen. And I live with Jimin and Kookie.”
Taehyung’s boxy smile returns. He brushes gentle fingertips over your knuckles. “So, are we okay?”
“We will be. Once you’re made up for all that time wasted arguing.”
The warmth in his gaze overwhelms you. Makes you want to wrap yourself up in it and never leave. “That’s a lot to make up for.”
“Yep. Better get to work,” you whisper before he captures your mouth with his.
