some extended college au i want but can't write
yixing-centric because because
baekhyun as the easy going freshman yixing meets in his second year. they quickly establish a friends-with-benefits situation and the whole relationship is unlike yixing's romantic m.o. but baekhyun showers him with attention when they're together, so it almost feels like a relationship, but he doesn't text very much or check-in on yixing daily so neither feel smothered. possible
baekchenlay?
sehun as the high school senior who is visiting the campus overnight. he somehow managed to befriend some party animals on his tour of the university and ends up at the same house party as yixing. they both meet on the fire escape while trying to get fresh air away from the smokey and crowded apartment. sehun is unsure about his major or his future plans or goals. he claims this college is his top choice so far. yixing feels a protective hyung feeling when he talks to sehun. they exchange numbers and continue texting sporadically throughout the school year. eventually sehun does enroll and they make time to hang out despite having completely non-overlapping social circles.
minseok is one of the first people yixing befriends after his roommate. they somehow manage to carry a conversation amidst the chaos of a raging house party. minseok leaves mid-way through yixing's first year due to enlistment. he comes back amidst yixing's quasi-relationship with baekhyun and is a source of comfort and guidance as a mature upper classman.
so i don't have much idea for all the characters, backstories, and relationships sadly. if this is something you want, you should discuss it with me
