All of these chapters from this update (and this whole fic, really) is dedicated to the amazing, wonderful, and all-around LOVELY blindteddy , whose birthday has just passed recently and whose work at 2min_aday  is both inspiring to me personally AND is what makes me feel extra-proud to be a part-time mod there myself.

Jun, I hope you enjoy this belated bday present ( Read more... )

This chapter was so beautifully tragic. ;______; Poor Jinki. I feel bad for him, but at the same times, it's like, it'll help grow as person! I like that you gave him this, like, he was kind of quiet through out the story, so this was nice! :)

And Taemin's curiosity was so genuine and well, adorable.

And although I'm completely against love (because emotions are subjective and subjective things are not valid) but, gosh, you put it so beautifully! Love is about being unsure, I suppose, and well, it differs for each person too, right?

And I totally have to mention the last line! It was so brilliant!

Thanks for sharing!! Can't wait for your next update <3 :D

I-It was meant to be a change from what we had before in this story, so I-I'm glad you felt that way? ;;;;;

And you're absolutely right about that. Jinki is a really good guy - almost too good, really - but his ingenuity has its drawbacks and this ordeal has kind of made him realize that. He WAS a quiet one throughout, but that's also why I have a sidestory for this ficverse planned :) set in Jinki's POV, so I hope that'll shed some light on how he felt about the events of both these fics as well as on the nature of his feelings about love, life, and being SHINee's leader ( ... )

Yes, there will (eventually lol) be a sidestory for Jinki!! :)) But I want to focus on one thing at a time for now and work on this story, writing to the very best of my ability ( ... )

It was indeed meant to be everything like a heart-to-heart talk. :)) I had been planning this chapter for a WHILE actually (even back when I was writing "Come One Step Closer To Me"...), so this was really something that had been built up in my head before I wrote it. Part of the reason this update took me so long, though, was because of this chapter...getting out everything I wanted to in words was so DIFFICULT (Jinki's reaction to Taemin's accusations, Taemin's words and thoughts about love...the whole 'feeling' of this chapter in general, even) but it was totally worth it because...after this chapter, I feel like I've succeeded in putting my head!canon views on OnTae into writing ( ... )

My head!canon has always seen Onew as having, like........the world's biggest crush on Kibum. But my JongKey-loving heart sees it as mostly unrequited sighhhh :((( It really does give him trouble and a lot of heartache, but he's such a sweet boy ♥ He tries not to let himself want more than he feels he deserves, but...

B-BUT, PRETTY MUCH, THAT'S WHY I'M WRITING THE NEXT CHAPTER TO BE TOTALLY HAPPY. BECAUSE 2MIN ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL HAPPIER AGAIN ;;;;

I'm reading this fic (with the prequel-fic one) a second time now, because this is by far one of the best 2min fanfics I've found on the internet. I simply love your writing style, the characters are IC and the plot is very good, too. The only thing I don't like is the fact that you don't update it. (* ̄m ̄)
But that won't stop my love for this fanfic.
Thanks for your hard work! (*^▽^*)

Oh my goodness, a-are you the one who wrote that BEAUTIFUL little piece about 2Min (or more specifically about Taemin?) titled "Cage"? Excuse me while I keysmash and flail a bit at you in gratitude for writing that little slice of perfection in the form of fic ksjfoiua9pf;mksgna;kp you really have a wonderful command of language and imagery!! ;u; I-I still need to leave a comment on thaaaaaat /makes a mental note ( ... )

You don't know how happy you made me right now.
I'm not really sure if you really meant my drabble, because it was titled "After", BUT it was all about Shinee and 2min living in a cage.

Please don't worry about your IC-ness, You had by far the best characterization of all the Shinee members I've ever read and I've read A LOT of fanfics.

Do you mean the ending of the chapter or the ending of the fanfic? Because I really like it when the ending isn't all happy and fluffy and rainbows and unicorn, you know? I like it if it's realistic. If it means that 2min won't be together, then so be it. They are after all living in a pretty homophobic environment.

So please don't worry and believe in yourself. You're an amazing writer and I really look forward to the next chapter! (^w^)

And please excuse my crappy English, but English is not my mother tongue.

Oh no, I defintely meant your drabble. But h-hmmmmmm maybe my fishbowl memory is acting up again orzzzz;;; I'm sorry I didn't get the title right TT^TT;;; What I remembered most strongly of the drabble was their 'caged' position in life, so I think I might have confused myself with that & the title...my apologies m(______)m ( ... )

i finally found the time to catch up on your fics. forgive me unnie-ah for being so late (:_;) this sequel is beautiful, just like the first. i'm going to comment on each chapter so bear with the long comment okay?

fourteen years old seems so young and i wonder if i ever felt the things taemin did when i was that age. i don't think so, and that's why it shows how mature taemin is for his age. your characterization of jonghyun, jinki and minho is perfect as always. sometimes, i worry that jonghyun really does have a complex about being alone but seeing him smile with the other members makes me feel unworried ( ... )

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhh - dongsaeng, pleasepleasePLEASE don't worry about the 'late' reply!!!!! ;A; I'm absolutely glad to see any comments at all from any of my readers, you know (especially considering I'm still so behind on updating this like I want to... /sobs;;), but having you back here after a long absence is even more of a wonderful surprise to me! ;u; ♥ I'm absolutely glad to hear from you in any way, shape, or form - as your comments always ALWAYS leave me with this warm & fuzzy feeling within me (*ノ ̄▽ ̄*)ノ So feel free to spam with long comments!! I love replying to them as much as I love reading them, so that's perfectly fine with me~

It is indeed a very young age to have experienced one's first love. But in that situation, it would make sense that it would take a truly mature 14-year-old to let the feelings come as they may and take whatever the other person has to offer him in the way of friendship. I believe Taemin has a very strong handle on things happening around him in general irl too, so this transfers over a ( ... )

2/3 (because apparently this comment was STILL too long for LJ OTLLLLLL) byuldeureul September 12 2011, 12:39:38 UTC

It's funny you should mention that, bby ^^ as it reminded me as one of the things that I love about the 2Min ship is how absolutely inseparable these two are as a whole through evidence in fancams/fanaccounts. Even when one wanders away from the other, it seems like nothing really holds them apart forever; like magnets drawn by an irrevocably powerful force, they always come back together towards the end of it all (a particular SMTown Tokyo fancam comes to mind quite readily *w* highlighting how, after Taemin and Minho were done wandering around the Tokyo Dome stage to mingle with others - with the older being a bit more overt about it than the younger one - the two of them came right back center stage to mess around and carry Taemin on piggyback and run about together to wave to each side of the stage extension area ♥). I love that most about them, because it really shows that they WANT to be close to one another, not just because they have to by obligation :) SOBS AND I ABSOLUTELY ///ADORE/// JOONGKI AND MINHO'S HYUNG/DONGSAENG ( ... )

3/3 (FINALLY GOT ALL OF THIS COMMENT OUT OTLLLLLLLLL) byuldeureul September 12 2011, 12:40:14 UTC

Indeed, Taemin's words speak volumes for my own philosophy on love......is that a bad thing, I wonder? Or is it a sign that I see a lot in Taemin that I feel is reflected in my younger self and within me even now? ;^; I-In any event, I too feel strongly about those words I wrote into the dialogue of this chapter - because they are pertinent and they are bittersweet...but they are also very TRUE for many people who love and lose and can't let the other person go. I...don't like to spoil readers, (cries s-says the writer who keeps spoiling her dongsaeng with hints as to where this story is going orzz;;), but I will say this about Jinki's one-sided love for Kibum, Kibum's relationship with Jonghyun, and the way Sunyoung fits into it all: all parties are invested in someone in this love square, but all of them will get what they truly deserve in the end. --As for what that means, I'm going to keep that much a S E C R E T (^_-)☆ at least until the next few chapters that will be updated soon, anyway ( ... )
