;A; I'm so glad you liked it oppa, your comment made me smile so much. I love using frilly diction but I feel like I can't sustain it for longer fics because then it becomes pretentious and trite. For this one in particular I liked playing up the contrast of the more poetic diction with the raw down to earth-ness of trucker life. It was really interesting to think about while I was writing it, because I think that in general truck drivers are overlooked by a lot of people.

It took me about two paragraphs in to realize they were truck drivers and I squeed. I have a special place in my heart for truck drivers and anything related.

This was just enough sugary sweetness to be delicious but not nauseating. I liked it tremendously, even if it was short. Ohhh, I just want more of truck drivers but I won't be greedy ^^;;

Well done!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it. I've been trying to do AUs outside the normal realm of ficdom with varying success :) It felt great to write something other than Vices for a change though! (you're welcome to give truck-driver shinee a go if you'd like! ;D)

I loved this to death and it was a very cute and original idea. I love it when people take them out of their element but still make them so...them. You did an awesome job of capturing the jongho-ness... If that even makes sense. The ending too...THE ENDING! Too adorable! :)

Thank you so much! I'm so happy people are liking this because I really needed to just sit down and write something that wasn't this stupid multi-chap i'm working on, and I ended up hammering this out in about an hour or so. Your comment is so nice and it makes me happy and inspired (I have a lovely jongho prompt on my list that I can't wait to start!) also omfg your icon is so awesum.

Chapters are so hard! I usually just end up turning out something long because I fear chapters. Haha! And yes please! Bring on the Jongho!!! (even if Minkey is my número uno).

And good! It was supposed to! :)

Also, I can't take credit for that icon. My totally awesome hyung made it for me. I charish it to death!!

[acutepencil]

I have a Minkey one too ;D It's not gonna be as fluffy (damn) but I think you'll like it :3

Ali. you are. amazing. seriously i love you so much T_____T this was such a great surprise and i had a freaking stressful day today, this was /exactly/ what i needed ;uu;

everything here is just freaking perfect. everything about this fic o god. i never ever imagined jongho as truck drivers before, but omg this is such a damn great AU o god. in just a short 500+ words you were able to paint us such a beautiful relationship between them and ugh, aMAZING.

Sometimes he even joined in, his deep voice turning soft and a bit strained as he sang along. I love this bit about minho's voice. it's a great description, it's perfect, i can imagine the scenes perfectly. TTTTT

seeing the way he gracelessly tumbled out of the truck when they stopped for gas, sprinting off to do laps around the convenience store and breathe in the fresh air, a huge grin stretching his normally stoic face. this part too. that's such a minho thing omg. and how jjong notices these kind of things

[acutepencil]

I'm so glad you liked it :) It was really fun to write something other than vices for a change haha, so we'll see about more of this AU in the future...It'll have to go on the end of my freakishly long to-do list, though :\ but I'm really really glad you liked it <3

Ohmygosh Ali,

Okay wow, I think I've told you already, but yeah I really love your writing style, and if I didn't...then I kinda suck haha.

I loved how this was short and sweet, but packed full of emotion. And I must admit that I never thought about truckers until you wrote them, this was a really unique plot.

And the title ( I was curious, so I checked out the link), the title was perfect too, it really weaved into the theme nicely.

This was all types of lovely omfg.

omg ;A; thank you so much Max <3 the responses to this have been so so wonderful, and it makes me really happy in particular to see that you liked it because I am such a big fan of your writing. I was on the highway the other day and I saw a man driving a truck, and next to him was another man, fast asleep. Before I could pass them, I saw the driver look fondly over at the other guy and bam! 547 words of jongho fluff was born. XD
