Fic repost!

Friends, it's that time of year. Perhaps you have not read my OT7 mistletoe competition fic. Perhaps you have, but would like to read it again. No longer user locked, I present my second most popular fic ever:

Reminder: Twelve Days of Ficmas starts on Christmas Day!

Each day from Christmas until Epiphany, I will post a fic or ficlet. Some will be smaller single-scene ficlets, some will be longer and more fleshed out. We got fluff! We got smut! We got at least 3 fandoms rep'd!

See you on Christmas! ❄️

Why am I so EMOTIONAL over his knobbly little knee 😭
A mirror selfie of Kim Seokjin dressed in a grey sweatsuit and standing in a small room, leaning against a perpendicular mirrored wall (perhaps a closet). One of his knees is casually bent, showing the outline of his kneecap against his sweatpants.

It's only called teratophilia if it comes from the Teras region of Greece, otherwise it's just sparkling monsterfuckers
A screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Teratophilia, somewhat suggestively illustrated: "Teratophilia refers to the sexual attraction to monsters. The word comes from the Ancient Greek: τέρας, romanized: teras, lit. 'monster' and φιλία, filia, 'love'."
