the middle ground; kai/krystal (f(x)/exo) | 2342 words, pg-13
krystal is a sweet poison, a guilty pleasure, a dangerous passion, all things good and bad.

( she is the unavoidable all bottled up in a girl: the too-bright neon billboard you can't help but stop and look at, that distant family member's funeral you had to sit through as a child, red lipstick and eyes lurking in shadows, a sign screaming look at me. )

exo, kai/krystal, f(x)

oh wow.

I haven't read (or written) kaistal in a very very veyr long time and i think you've just rekindled my love for them because wow that was really good. I loved the mystery surrounding krystal and the way you always describe the colour of her lips and her cigarettes I just really love her character here, it's perfect. you really don't know what she is and whether she's good or evil or just a bystander who watches the world move past without inciting anything but without stopping it either.

and jongin, poor clueless jongin. you don't even really know if she's actually alive or if she's just a figment of his imagination, like this creeping paranoia in the back of his head.

anyway I just really liked this !! good job <3

oh my gosh senpai noticed me !!1111

but actually thanks so much for reading and commenting! jsdjl i'm so glad that you picked up on all of the little details of her character because i wasn't sure whether anyone would noticed but you did and i'm just-- really glad. i'm glad that the mystery surrounding krystal's character is believable because i wanted it to be vague, heh.

also i hope that "you've just rekindled my love for them" means you might write them soon?? dsjllkj i didn't even notice that the majority of your kaistal fics were written like 2 or 3 years ago.

hahaha i hope i'll write them soon ! i actually find it weird to write real life couples because... you know... they're actually real (also i'm really invested in sestal atm haha). but yeah my kaistal peak was in 2013 lmao

hmm yeah i'm actually starting to feel the same about kaistal i don't think i can write about them in canon that much anymore ;-; and sestal dang that's cute (honestly everyone/krystal is cute jhsdklgf)

wow i really like this!!!
really jealous of people who can make this kind of unsettling yet eerily beautiful atmosphere in their fics. and kaistal really fits this sort of theme - and i love the ambiguity of it all. i guess sometimes i just like being confused - as long as it's poetic :P but yes they are still beautiful and i don't even know what's going on 100% but i'm so here for dangerous!krystal ♥

thanks so much for reading jsgkhlg ;-; i like being confused too ahaha but i really struggled with pulling it off and wasn't sure whether it would work? yeah. i really think that kaistal is such a versatile couple and they can pretty much pull off anything~ but yeah dangerous!krystal is the best !
