i don't have to words to tell you how much i loved this but i did.
this was so wonderful and perfect. and the little ways that you showed the characters' intentions and fears was amazing. does that make sense?
i don't think i've actually read minjung/eunsook before...at least not that i can remember, but you made them work so well together.
and i may or may not be a shameless gwiboon/junghee shipper so i quite enjoyed their cameos /hides
this was just so lovely. memming :)

[yhue]

it does!

i made junghee/gwiboon such caricatures, i couldn't help it omg. i'm happy you liked them nonetheless, and thank you for commenting!

wow, i haven't seen a fem!onho fic in a while.

i'm just gonna...spot this, and get back to you :)

[yhue]

i don't think i've seen one, period ;; and no problem!

They're not too common :)

I love how you wrote this ;; Every word seems so thoughtful and poignant. I love both Minjung & Eunsook's personalities; you wrote them really beautifully. Eunsook's just kind of...lost, with everything, stressed, but her personality doesn't make her seem that way, like she can handle everything. And Minjung, ugh the way she just is, like just walking out of the shower in just underwear.

Lovely <3

huhu, i rly appreciate knowing how you read into eunsook bc that was how i wanted her to be lol. idk i kinda adore how horrible minho is w his overexertion during choreo and no-homo-but-yes-homo thing he has going on with all males ever, and i was thinking how that would translate into minjung's character, and it just kinda became everything i like about onho? they're such complementaries to each other bc onew often underexerts himself and i think minho notices that and often ends up overcompensating, which is really tragic but adorbs at the same time.

but. what i meant was tq for commenting! haha.

my favourite parts;
Sometimes Minjung would take the bus to campus, which partly follows the same route as her old high school bus. She glances at shops she used to visit after practice, sweaty and thirsty, and she feels displaced from her past.

Minjung wonders at what point things change enough for the past to become ‘the past’.

She feels it return, the sense that she’s always interrupting something in Eunsook’s life.

She pulls her sleeves over her hands to break the heat; it’s kind of cute.

Minjung smiles, breathing out all the things she’d been meaning to complain about.

They’re good for each other in the way that birds need seasons, always reciprocal and always synchronised, making homes in each other.

“Dunno.” It takes all of her will not to wail, I think I’m in love.what stood out most to me about the way you wrote this was the softness of the words; even the moments that were painful or confusing for the characters felt like they were flowing like water. eunsook's actions (or non-actions) were like the definition of
