i don't think i have an ideal au?? i think i care more for dynamics and character than plot (as is evident in everything i have written lol) so any au that explores the delightful tension that seokgyu embody for me. having someone so similar to you, knowing so much about them because they are so similar to you, seeing someone so clearly - including the parts you don't like, including the parts that remind you of yourself. and then working through that tension in order to have a better relationship with yourself and the other person. a relationship that doesn't necessarily become romantic in the gushy romance sense (although that is nice), but is still intimate in terms of the knowledge and comfort with each other. and the great thing is that So many aus can explore that tension! i'm not massively creative with these things, but other people have written seokgyus that are really unique in the way that dynamic is expressed! sorry for this long-winded non-answer lmao 😭
