Wow this was excellenttttttt. I really enjoyed the graphic, visceral nature of your writing - so many details... sights, sounds, smells - I really felt like I was there, which is testament to the power of your description. I'm so relieved that things turned out well for Baekhyun and Chanyeol, even if they ended up with more than a few battle scars, and the ending was especially beautiful. It seems you either did a hell of a lot of research or you've been in the military yourself haha, I dunno which. Hats off to you either way, this was great.

omg wow thank you so much *--* I have a knack of describing things in detail, and I'm sort of glad that it didn't bore you haha~ I've never been in the military, by the way; I'm usually fascinated by all things war and military, which is why I was drawn to this prompt in the first place;;;;; thanks again for reading and for leaving such a lovely comment ♥♥

This is a lovely piece of writing. There are so few stories about the war and you've done a brilliant job in telling this one. The pace was good, the characters were good. It was a pleasure to read.

reading this kept me on edge. i kept on questioning what's going to happen in the end, who's going to die? will they both live? how are they going to die? will they be able to say i love you to each other? will they be okay? am i going to be okay? ;;;;;
i like the bittersweet ending. i cried when i read about yura's husband orz ;_; because imagining that happening to you really broke my heart and i couldn't take the angst so i cried. then reading what made chanyeol to be so so alert in the field (what he promised to yura) made me cry even harder.

........sekai.......... jongin's message to baek before they part ways........

i'm always attracted to this kind of genre whenever i need to buy new novel to read. this kind of story only makes you realize how cruel the world is and how much you should be grateful ;; i'm sorry for rambling but i need you to know how much i love this story ;;;; i'm glad you joined the fest, i'm glad you wrote this. whoever you are, thank you ;_;♡
