A Rose's Seven Thorns

BTS Fic Recs of a Highly Critical (somewhat sarcastic) Fangirl

Title: A Rose's Seven Thorns

Author: sass-hole

Main Male Character: BTS 0T7

Description: What was supposed to be a normal pizza delivery turns into a huge and dangerous predicament for Lee Jangmi when she stumbled upon an altercation between two gangs. After being saved by BTS, a notorious gang in Seoul that has never been charged or caught for their crimes, she is targeted by other gangs. Realizing she is in danger because of them, they offer their protection. As Jangmi's safe and simple world turns hazardous, she begins to discover many secrets surrounding Seoul. And the more secrets that unravel, the more trouble that arises and the deeper she gets involved. With the help of BTS, Jangmi tries to survive each day while still delivering pizzas Monday through Friday. She was not cut out for this whatsoever. If she thought working with her catty coworker was hard, she hadn't seen nothing yet.

 

Summary: Jangmi, while on a delivery job, somehow stumbles into a gangfight between BTS and some other gang in which Yoongi protects her from a bullet. This leads the gangs in Seoul to target her in order to get to BTS. Because of this, the member or BTS decide that they need to protect Jangmi from these gangs and Jangmi soon realizes that one of the members of BTS is her old childhood friend. 

 

Pros:

-I sincerely love Jangmi's relationship with Yoongi because it's how my friends and I interact.

- The writing is interesting and the plot is great. It's a good gang AU that isn't too cliche which is nice.

- It's refreshing to see an OT7 fic where not all of the guys are interested in the protagonist even though she isn't extraordinarily pretty, because that's honestly really irritating and unrealistic.

- JANGMI YOU GO GURL! YOU GO FIGHT THOSE GANGSTERS!

- It's a good story for procrastinating on AP Exams.

 

Cons:

- Frequent grammatical errors that don't distract the reader from the story, but as a grammar nazi, I sometimes get a little bothered by them.

- The female protagonist is a bit too childish for my preferences, but you do you.

- There needs to be more representation of female gangs because only two have been mentioned so far and the gender ratio should be balanced out a bit.

Chapter 1: It seems you're looking for Jin fics... I'll recommend this one, even though only one chapter is published for now.

It's pretty much pure comedy and only has the intro posted, but if you want, you can give this a try.
