:D :D :D

I already told you I liked this (and it's not just because I inadvertently made an appearance ;D). But I love Changmin interacting with everyone here. Especially calm Yunho~ And Jaejoong~ I just love him in this...but I already told you that. XDD

So do I need to get on you to remind you to work on this more?? Because you know I will do it. ;)

[dreaming_col]

Quite inadvertently, but it works. :D I think you've always had a particular soft-spot for this Jaejoong. Glad to see that hasn't changed. (And maybe why it was so easy to make him sound like you. ^_~)

Noooo~~~ I'm gonna be good from now. Came up with a plan of going to a cafe a few times a week right after work so that I don't come home and get into my "home=laziness" funk. That's how I actually got this finished today. There's this neat little cafe right next to my school where the inside is decorated like the outdoor patio of a European bistro. Quite inspirational. ^__^

[feyla]

I'm so jealous you have cafes like that!!!! T_T

[dreaming_col]

It is quite nice, actually. ^_^ Wish it'd been built before you left so we could've had one of our coffee dates there...

oh my gosh??? i almost couldnt believe my eyes! u really got it updated?? :D :D :D woohoo~ success T^T brb to read ~ <3 (tho i might need to start from ch 1 again.. XD)

~~~
i love how u gave each of them a moment with eachother ~ i love each of their various dynamics..and forgot how much i love min being the baby center of attention they all protect and love unconditionally *getting delirious* hehehehehehe
poor jaechun really do need more time together~ but as much as i love to death the jaemin here, need to kick him out and give chunnie a chance to really get min back TT
LOL @ "jaejoong exaggerations" .. it def suits him well XDD

anwyay! so happy ur finally getting this back and goingggggg~~~~~~~~~ :D i remember being pretty obsessed with the first story so exited to see what u have planned here *_* FIGHTINGGGGGGGgg!

[dreaming_col]

I did~~~! Managed to get it finished during my cafe time after work yesterday. ^^

Yeah, I didn't want to focus just on the romances, but at the same time, I realized I was spending a lot of time just on JaeMin. I had to figure out a way to fit in other interactions AND help Min heal at the same time. He was starting to get far too dependent on Jae...
JaeChun will have their moments of best friends time, but both of them are definitely focused on Changminnie. They have to figure out a good compromise.
XDDDD JaeJae's so... special.

Yay~!!! Hopefully I can keep the momentum going. Skipped my cafe time today because I barely slept last night. Would say I'm not thinking straight because I'm so tried, but it's more like I'm barely thinking at all. My brain's just given up, so I figured cafe time would've just been me staring blankly at my notebook anyway... :/

[rennie_88]

i wish i had time for cafe time keke im way too tired these days to do anything but crash = =

hmm well.. we cant deny we love dependent lovely boys..makes all our protective instincts kick in or something..but he IS a man.. so he's gota overcome u_u lol plus poor chunnie's being way too very patient and needs some..reward :S or progress i mean cough hehe

either way. love everyone focusing on min :) forever and ever he's the center of their little world isnt he *_* ~~~~~~~

lets NOT forget to talk about fics tmrw <3 :D

[dreaming_col]

I was lazy the rest of the week and didn't go, but I wrote out my outline for Ch. 5 at work and will probably go for more cafe time on Monday to see if I can get the chap written. Maybe get myself on some kind of timeline to update once a week... ^_^

Well, Min is technically a man, but we do have to remember that he's only about 17-18 in this story, newly graduated from high school, and has lived through legitimate physical AND mental torture. That's a lot to overcome, but he's trying his best. And, yes, Chunnie is a bit of a saint. XD

In my mind, Minnie will always be the maknae and the one they all focus on. No matter how much he protests it. XDDDD

[crimson_miharu]

HURRAY! I finally read it! Glad to see Min making progress and rebuilding his relationship with everyone. It's gonna take a while but it's a good start!

[dreaming_col]

Ohmygosh, can I just start by saying THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU~!!! for commenting? Because, seriously, I was thinking for a while there I was only gonna have the two, and I know both of those people IRL so they kinda HAVE to comment, and if no one else had commented soon, I was getting ready to cry all alone in a very dark corner. Maybe under my bed, not sure. :/

*coughs* Aaaaanyway. Yes, Min's finally starting to take the steps by himself to rebuild everything and put it back in place. And all I can say is... good luck, Minnie~! XD

[crimson_miharu]

LOL! No need to thank me! I enjoy reading it and commenting. Took me a while this time since I started a new job but it's been open in my browser since u posted it :D!

[dreaming_col]

Ahhh, new jobs - always getting in the way of fic reading (or writing, in my case)... ^^

[kratynoi]

Okay~! I'm updated!! Aren't you proud?!

First off *smack* I hate you, you're going to ruin this and you know what I'm talking about so *smack smack*

But aside from that.

Waaaah~~~ the quiet moments with MinSu and HoMin and of course the YooMin were really nice.

And awwwww~~~ Soulmate Date! Although, lolz XD I can imagine Jaejoong getting all "I will KILL you for not telling me about [fill in blank] Chunnie!" (he probably jumped Yoochun for deleting Twitter).

And fine fine, I'm happy with the JaeHoSu. Still having major shipping identity crisis right now though, like majorly. TT I don't know what to do with myself. Help~~

[dreaming_col]

Yes, quite proud. And now I can actually start sending you links when I update. ^_^

Lol~!!! I am going to ruin it. In ways you probably can't even quite imagine right now. It shall be glooooorious~~~~ XD

I needed some quiet, peaceful moments between all of them. Or, rather, I guess they did, really. Min needed reminding that Jae's not the only one that can help him.

Oh, I can sooooo see Jae flipping out on the boys like that. Would love to actually see it in action someday... :D

Believe me, I understand the shipping crisis. Right there with ya, dear. So how'm I supposed to help? :/

[kratynoi]

Yes please do!

And can you PLEASE warn me if a chapter is going to rip my heart out and tear it to bits before burning it to crisps? I'd like to know to prepare myself mentally and with tissues and that I don't need to look presentable the next week.

Yes yes, Min and Jae can be quite forgetful that there are three others in it too, I see.

TAT *cries* Okay, okay~ this is okay. Just as long as I remember my anchor OTP. I think I'll be okay.....*wibbles*

[dreaming_col]

XDDD I will do my best to give you advance warning on any chaps that may do that. Probably won't be for a while yet, though, so you can relax a little bit. (Next chap may be a bit upsetting, but I think more frustrating than anything.)

And that's not shipping innuendo at alllll~~~~ XDDD

We'll be fine~~~ It's only 'cause the JaeSu are being such attention whores right now. Once they get tired of being regular little exhibitionists, our hearts will return to normal. ^^

[miruu_kira]

hahahahaha, LOL for soulmate :DD

i agree with hosu, jaejae need his time for enjoying life (not that i said min bother him) and minnie for having others taking care of him (and not that i want jaemin to be separate, hehehe)

jaejae is a pro when taking care of min and junsu too, hehehe, they really able to do that,

luckily chun still alive after jaejae's evil time, hahahahaahahaha, i can't stop my laugh even after finish read that part and typing this comment, :DD

[dreaming_col]

Gotta love the SoulMates~~~ :D

Yeah, as stubborn as Jae is, he needs to take some time for himself, too. It's great that he takes such good care of Min, but he has his own issues to work on as well, which will become more obvious later in the story. ^^

JaeSu are the best Min-parents ever, aren't they?? XD

[miruu_kira]

absolutely yesss, they are the best best best parents for min, from the beginning read this fic, i wanted to ask u, can u explain why u give this fic that tittle?? hehehehe, just a lil bit curious, :DDD

[dreaming_col]

Ahh, the titles... Was wondering if anyone would ever ask about that. XD
