Oh man. This kind of completely absolutely broke my heart. layhannnnnnn ;;
I have a thing for layhan angst and I don't even like angst soooo, haha.
I really, really loved this. I loved how they both thought they were doing what was best for the other - all the while really hurting them both in the end. I identified with Yixing and Luhan soo much. They felt so real and I just really wanted to hug them so much. I loved Kris' part. He was so needed and just great and ahhhh my bias is perfect~~~~
Um yes. This was so good and just thank you for writing it. I really, really loved it.

Hi there! c:

I'm really glad that you enjoyed reading this. ;AAA; I feel like I rushed through the middle bits and that the ending was kind of abrupt, but it means a lot to hear that you were still able to relate to the characters despite that fact. I wanted to properly capture the relationship that I believe that the two share in real life (in which Yixing works himself super hard and Luhan tries to get him to lighten up and lessen his stress) while dramatizing everything in order to allow for a fresh spin on a common topic in the fandom. I feel like Luhan's character development is minimal at best, but wow, hearing that you were able to identify with both of the main characters makes me feel a lot better about myself. ;AAA;

For some reason, Kris always sneaks his way into all of my angst one-shots and I'm not sure what to about it. LOL. Gorgeous OT3 is gorgeous. c;

Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to comment! It really means a lot. *glomps*

I absolutely loved reading it! I kind of understand the rush feel, but I think it went well. It definitely could have been expanded more but it was a really good length so far and I really loved everything in it. I really related to the characters and loved them a lot. I think it was very realistic and definitely had a real life feel to it. I think both characters were great, really!! I'm glad to have made you feel better, haha.

I know what you mean!! I also seem to either sneak Kris or Sehun into my fics. I have a problemmmm.

It's no problem at all, dear!! I really did love this.

And just to avoid confusion and stuff, this my new lj account so you don't think I'm so random just replying to a comment, haha.

Oh! Haha, I was a little confused at first. Thanks for that clarification. c;

I'm glad that you were able to enjoy this piece despite my shortcomings. I realized that I hadn't really done anything for Yixing's birthday, so I ended up writing about 3,000+ words in one night. LOL. Definitely don't think that that's something I'll be doing again anytime soon.

*glomps you*

Oh, Sehun's another little booger. LOL. For some reason, Kris is one of my biggest biases, yet I'm just realizing that I don't actually have a fic that centers around him. Time to get to writing again~ ;D

I have to check out your works then when I have the time! I'm being swamped with schoolwork right now, but I'd definitely love to read something of yours. c:
