honestly, I was terrified about posting this fic. I thought for sure mino/taehyun shippers would hate it, mino/seungyoon shippers would hate it, and seungyoon/taehyun shippers would hate it. That there wasn't going to be "enough" of their ship in this story--that is, if anyone even gave this fic a chance to begin with. All that being said, I was both surprised and very happy by your comment! (Seriously, I almost cried in relief

oh my god this is the fic i never knew i wanted.... i've always craved a fic about kangnamsong and an exploration of the different ways they relate to each other individually and as a trio, and you carried that out in a way i never imagined *_____* this was such a good read and i LOVE how complicated and nuanced and unexpected all the developments and emotions were. from taehyun and mino's whirlwind first meeting to the natural progression of their relationship settling down and becoming more mature, and how it's a tradeoff that taehyun is comfortable with but mino isn't ahhhhhhhh that really tugged at me. taehyun is so wild but steadfast deep down and i love that he's the one that resisted involving seungyoon AND that mino was the one who strayed instead - i really didn't expect that!!! but it's the perfect twist and really shows how solid and consistent your characterization is throughout the story. and mino's reason for loving seungyoon being that he's a reflection of what he fell for in taehyun - i really really love the realism

I'm so relieved and happy that you enjoyed this fic -- I wasn't sure if it was going to be too angsty and I was constantly panicked that this wasn't going to be anything that you wanted ;;;;; I can't tell you how relieved I am lol. I knew I wanted to make things complicated and difficult for these characters and that it would be trying on the reader, so it makes me tremendously happy that 1) you don't hate it and 2) that you can still appreciate this fic given all of its complications.
I personally loved seunghoon and mino's friendship the most out of this fic! They were so much fun to write together that I regretted cutting anything that had seunghoon in it because he was like, the standout for me haha.
Thank you for your great prompts and for pushing me to write something like this. It was definitely a challenge and I'm so grateful that I got the opportunity to grow as a writer! So thank you for pushing me beyond my comfort levels -- I learned a lot about myself and my writing and I really appreciate and credit you for that. <3
This fic was such an amazing read from beginning to end.
The painful reality of Taehyun and Mino's relationship and how it changed when Seungyoon came into the mix. It's all so well crafted and well written. It was very interesting to see the small contrasts of Seunghoon and Jinwoo's otherwise healthy and stable relationship and how Mino and Taehyun's subtly fell apart without them noticing.
The dubious ending was perfect but it hurt as the reader. You really brought the reader into the story and made us feel their pain.
ahhh what to say? Thank you for you comment and I'm glad you still enjoyed it even if it hurt you in the end :( I knew it would and I apologize for wanting the story to hurt because I wanted to pose questions to the reader that were complicated and tough and where it wasn't easy to do the "right" thing &&& I'm sorry!
But yes, my jinhoon babies are strong and well & so damn cute I couldn't break them apart -- but yes, also a great contrast to the mino/taehyun/seungyoon dynamic
Still hope a real endingext_2740366September 4 2016, 20:10:20 UTC
I was so 'wow' all the time when I read this fic. Actually I'm not a Namsong shipper, Im a SongKang shipper but at this moment all I want is an extra chapter showing me what was in Seungyoon's mind when he accepted their invite. He truly loved Taehyun that much? Too much that he couldn't help but threw himself to Mino just to had Taehyun in his arms? He didn't have any feeling for Mino, I see how he rejected Mino's suggest...
After all the one makes me curious the most is Seungyoon, and this ending is not what I've expected, I want to see how they fix their relationship, not a opening ending. But I just say that, I dont mean to make you upset or something. Anyway this is my very first time leaving a comment on LJ, this fic is too much to me :((
