Plot #1: Quiet Obsession
Pairing: College Senior × College FreshmanTropes: Brother’s Best Friend / Forbidden Romance, Selectively Mute FMC, Obsessive Protector MMC, Underground Fighter MMC, Trauma Survivors, College Setting, Emotional DependencyThemes: Control vs helplessness, Silence as protection, Trauma and its aftermath, Power imbalance, Messy healing, Devotion vs self-destructionDynamics: “Use your words”, Obsessive protector x silent survivor, Push–pull tension, Caretaker vs controller blur, Emotional dependency loop, Possession framed as safety, Guilt-fueled desire, Dangerous but “safe” MMCPlot Idea: MC, a trauma survivor who has become selectively mute after a deeply damaging past. Everyone around her sees her as fragile—but beneath the silence is anger, strength, and a need for control over her own life.When she enrolls at the same college as her overprotective brother, she’s pulled into his tight-knit (and chaotic) friend group—especially YC, a volatile, emotionally scarred man who becomes dangerously fixated on her. Despite knowing he should stay away (she’s his best friend’s little sister), YC is drawn to MC in a way that turns obsessive, blurring the line between protection and destruction.As their connection intensifies, the story explores a messy push-and-pull dynamic filled with secrecy, guilt, and unresolved trauma. At its core, it’s about two deeply broken people pulled together by obsession rather than stability—navigating toxic love, healing, and the question of whether something so intense can ever be safe.
Plot #2: Vicious Circles

The daughter of a powerful Irish crime boss in Chicago, MC has spent her life under control—watched, corrected, and quietly broken down into something useful. When her father arranges her marriage to YC, a mafia boss with a reputation for cruelty, she understands what it means: she is being handed over, not wed.But MC does what she was never supposed to do.She runs.What follows is not a love story—at least, not in the way she was promised. It is a pursuit. A correction. A reminder that no matter how far she goes, she was never meant to be free.
