I read it over AFF and I must say, i was unsatisfied because it felt incomplete, and here is the full one and I just- I love this. I love how Jongdae is hesitant to be with Yixing because the chonrian has so many souls inside his head and Jongdae probably knows that because of that he can never have Yixing fully. And Onew and Jonghyun, I like how you inserted them in, but this sounds like Onew and Jonghyun met a sad ending because Yixing is the vessel that contains Jonghyun and Onew is not in love with the body. I am happy Onew is with Taemin now though.

Also, the way you write Chen really makes me love him. And when Yixing is finally exorcised of the spirits in his head, Chen knows that the Yixing he sees are the one that fully loves him and I love that so much because it means that they can be fully together now. and your ending, I love love love, because it is such an open ended ending and I hope this could only mean happiness for both of them from now on. :'D

omg my comment is so not decent i'm just breathing out word vomit :o

but i agree with your words, and some of your explanations but I still want to insist that onhyun had some past sniffs because it just felt very.. apt in that moment for me sniffs let me have my own delusion even though I don't even ship onhyun LOL and sobs that even sadder because when jongdae exorcise yixing onew lost his chance to see jonghyun forever and ever ;;; but im also happy jongdae and yixing got together but also sad that jonghyun is gone forever, ugh feels are contradicting me

i will keep looking at the aff then! i like the pictures you drew, very very artsy c:

[curionenene]

hahaha sure you can have that delusion. Now that I read it I'm pretty sure that did have something XD.

Technically he did go see Jonghyun that one last time, which is sort of why he visited just before Chen came over. But yeah, Onew is a coward with these kind of things, so I imagine he still sometimes goes back to that room in the HQ and just... stares there and has conversations in his head, then Taemin will pop in and like, what are you doing hyung and onew will just smile mysteriously orz.

And lolol, the pictures I drew were like. Lazy shit getting lazier with each one. The only ones I do like are the ones with Chen on the bus and the one with Yixing caressing Chen's face.

And I love word vomit. Word vomit is good. I do word vomit all the time, can't you tell =D

^ basically what she said.
When chen had to exerosie Yixing I seriously thought Yixing was going to die/not be of this world anymore.

It was so creepy at times and I loved it.

The ending and Yixing's lazy way of dressing is so adorable. I hope they have a long life together without any of them dying so soon T.T

[curionenene]

Hahahahaha. I'm glad you thought Yixing was because that was what I intended HAHAHAHAHA XDDDDD

And yes, it was supposed to be creepy. HALLOWEEN IS COMING HEHEHEHEHE

and yes they do end up happy together. It's in the fic XDDD Yixing says that Chen will live a long, cursed life, but he also says that a cursed life isn't necessarily unhappy XD

Gorgeous. Definitely one I'm setting aside to come back to later when feeling a little detached and tired. :)
