Thank God Changmin didnt aboard the Titanic.

hwaiting

[dystopialights]

Haha, nope, Lord Yunho knows best ;) Even when I wrote the scene, when I edited it, I was always thinking, "Awww, Yunho saves him from death at sea! ♥♥♥" rofl

:D!

aahh i love you! that was amazing! I thought Changmin would die on the Titanic, glad he didn't go. seriously, you're very talented. thank youuuuu ;)

[dystopialights]

Thank you so much ♥! I'm so glad you liked! As for the titanic, lol, I couldn't bring myself to even think of killing Min off! Those boys are just too good together ;D

I think you mix something small up: November 1909 not 1910 (because the next part is May 1910 or something.,.)

Gosh, my heart stopped for a moment when CM mentioned the Titanic >_<

Until the end I was a little bit afraid of you killing either of them~ but I let out a sigh of relief eventually ^_~

This was really well written with all those details etc- totally worth your research!

[dystopialights]

Ah! Thank you, I just knew one of those dates was going to end up off... :'D

And thank you again for reading! The research was actually a lot of fun, I'm glad you found it enjoyable :)

Can I just spazz and fangirl like crazy over this piece of art?

If I could reach you in person you'd already have a restraining order against me for all the things I would've attempted to do to you because I think I love you, and I don't even know you.

History from this period and back is just.... ughhh ♥ then everything goes downill with capitalism and all that jazz.

Have you read Ken Follett's Fall of Giants? It's set around this time, perhaps a couple of years later. Let's just say I'm reading it right now and this story made my day ...hell, my entire week.

And then you add tall, tall, elegant and distinguished-looking HoMin and... ♥♥♥

I'm mem-ing it right now, and am I getting something about a sequel?

I really cannot tell you in words how much I liked this story~

[dystopialights]

Ahaha, spazz away! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Homin make for such wonderful dandy gentleman, no?

:D♥

I'll admit I'm a big history buff, but I usually like the ancient stuff... this is about as "modern" as I get, lol. It was actually Downton Abbey that sparked my recent interest in this time period, although through more research I became just a little obsessed! I will most definitely have to check out Ken Follet's book! Ive had his 'Pillars of the Earth' series on my reading list for aaages, but FoG is sounding pretty tempting... ;D

Thanks for reading, bb! And, indeed, the sequel is already up, here! :)

[poppy_sky]

I read those too, anything Ken Follett is definitely good (...so far hahaha)

omfg, and now that I need to be studying.

*throws notes in the air and goes to read*

i enjoyed this very much ~ the edwardian era can be so straitlaced yet decadent at the same time.

i do look forward to the sequel ~ particularly how the onset of war would shape their destinies and relationship.

♥

[dystopialights]

Thank you so much, bb! The Edwardians were a pretty interesting bunch, Homin just fit right in ;D

Also, I'm happy to say that the sequel is already up! You can read it here, at your leisure~ ♥
