I love all your stories!! I have tried reading some on AFF but none are as good as yours! I have found two or three people who write as well as you but they never finish the fic :/ and that just sucks!!! I would like to know what happens next, you know! But i don't think they'll finish it anytime soon. you put so much detail into your fics that i can actually see the story in my head; which is awesome!! You should think about becoming a pro writer someday! You are very good! Can't wait to read more! If it wasn't for someone posting a link of your out of stock fic on twitter i would have probably never gotten into fanfics Lol Btw i just made an account to leave you a comment! Lol

ugh, I hate when I find good fic and it's unfinished ;; that's the worst! But thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it and that you randomly came across my fics, now you can read all the amazing works for this fandom! \o/

I know! It really sucks. There's this homin fic that I found on aff that's good. But the girl ended it with yunho asking Min out for coffee. -_- I don't think she's going finish it :/ lol I hope she would though. I read all your fics. I love the back In stock one. & the one where min and Yunho switch places! Awesome! Can't wait for more!

awww it's over already :( I was secretly still holding out for zombies LOL

I liked this, although I feel like I wanted something more from it - probably I just wanted it to be longer lol. Any excuse to read more of your writing! I liked all the side characters and the thrill of the action sequences and homin's moral dilemmas and taking down the professor at the end, that was super exciting and awesome. And I love the subtlety of their relationship, nothing too overt or in-your-face. Seriously great job! :3

probably an NC-17 scene I TOLD YOU I'M SORRY

lmao but I actually had a v serious talk with a friend about the possibility of adding zombies after you commented and the significance of the conflict why are you doing this to me tea

and I kinda get what you mean, this feels like such a ...restrained fic, even for me. like there's just pieces missing. but it was either post it or spend another year obsessing over it ahahaha IT'S DONE AND ...now I can rewrite it 34809342 times. maybe with zombies.

thank you my friend tea for ensuring that I will never be able to let this one die until it's twice the length and twice the UST.

Omg nooo I didn't mean to imply that it felt lacking or unfinished somehow - it's just that you created such a rich world and there was all this great build-up at the beginning that it made the ending feel a little, like you said, restrained. But I think it works with your style of writing.

Y'know in my experience I find that if I tinker too much with a piece and overanalyse it I just end up making it worse and hating it in the end. My favorite fics are the ones I make the least changes to from conception to editing because they end up being the most organic. So maybe just let this one go?

You could always start a fresh zombie au :3 Although tbh I'm like....70% certain I'm going to end up writing it because the idea just won't leave me alone.

Completely agree! That's why short stories can be way more fun to write, cause you know...it's like a quick, solid idea that just carries an idea so beautifully. I think I tried to write this like a short story and end up eating dirt. so I'm leaving it for now to play around with ghost boyfriends and carnivorous hotels, y'know, the easy stuff.

um. about that zombie au...can you be coerced to like, 90% certainty? maybe 110%? PLEASE WRITE IT

Ah~ it's the end~... i never realized how sucked i am into this universe that i always think it stretched until the end. Thank you so much for all your hard work~ i thoroughly enjoyed my journey together with them in this universe~

I am happy with the ending~ the justification of their actions and words, the strong friendship between the kyuline and how they decided to be together until the end really made me smile broadly~ I learnt a lot from this universe tbh~ so thank you for everything and can't wait for your next project ^ ^

i'm literally half a year late to read this but i promise you this was the first thing i checked after my LJ hiatus.
and ohhh this ending is so perfect.
i love the medical gore with the cadaver and omg kyuhyun's room decor lol. and then the beautiful kyuline friendship. drunk while they perform autopsies haha.

and of course the progression of yunho and changmin's relationship. i can't even say anything about it because there are no words so yes just ♥.

i have to say i'm quite impressed with how you resolved the conflict. for months i was like "but the cure how do you cure this thing omg how is she gonna wrap this up in one chapter" but you did it and i'm kind of blown away by how simple it was haha. genius genius. i'm so pleased.

yayyyy! Better late than never \o/
I'm so glad you made the time to read and enjoyed it ahahaha
...yeahhh Kyuhyun's dorm was fun to come up with ;; nothing like skulls to remind you home is where the heart is!

I was also unsure about the ending, but it just rolled out kind of on its own, so I guess it turned out okay, despite not having all the answers...
again, thank you so much for reading! \♥/
