So, first of all, I like a lot of different types of fics, but AUs tend to really do it for me. It's like, you have an alternate universe and therefore you need to come up with things for the characters that are different from the real life; that said, I really like the "simple" (not exactly the word I wanted to use but...) way you wrote this, like, you have the characters and you gave them jobs, and that's pretty much all we need to know because the piece of story revolves around their workplace. You didn't delve on their backgrounds and personalities and stuff like that, you wrote what needed to be written and the rest are for us readers to imagine... you know? lmao I'm rambling so bad but... yeah!
I somehow really admire that kind of an "open" way of writing, when it's well written like this (and whether or not it is intentional or just "sighs i don't care to write that and that i'll just leave it like this"); maybe because it's something I can't do it myself. I often get an AU idea and I decide like "i'll just make a short oneshot with only the vital information nothing more nothing less leave out all the crap!!" and then when I write I just go on and on and on and on and in the end I have several pages of text, most of it being descriptive/delving/etc stuff that the story could go well without.
... Just look at this comment. I was supposed to write a quick, short, nice comment to compliment this fic, and this happened. You see what I mean? lmao yeah. OTL
All in all, this was a really nice little thing. And I really enjoy these nice little things. Oh, and I love how you introduced Yoseob only at the end part of the fic. Idk I just really liked that. :D It's like you just need to keep reading because you just need to get to that part when he finally comes up. (And when he left I remember instantly thinking "HOW ARE YOU GOING TO CALL WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE HIS NUMBER DOOJ U DUMB") Yes. Well done heuheu I has enjoyed! And excuse this uncontrollable rambling. I always have too much to say. :T
And a little extra plus for the “I don’t drink coffee...” lmao; I have kind of the same sort of scene in one of my own fics, even though it was more of the teasing "what if i don't like coffee" and the flustered and awkward "well uh whatever it is that you like" kind of thing lmao I was really amused to see that there

as for the "open" way of writing, I'm not sure myself, sometimes I just let it flow and most of the times they ended up badly OTL and like this one, it's pointless *crawls under the bed. but reading your long comment somehow makes me happy and I'm glad it's worth it.
hehe.
<3 much love sweeetie. thank you so, so much <3
