Thank you for coming back and commenting ^^ I can't do sad endings, I'm too fluffy for that! HoMin deserve all the happy endings ^^

*rubs eyes*

A historic AU? What have you done with my modern-day, gritty-Seoul/Gwangju-streets writer glitterburn?

But by heavens don't you write historic AU's well? It's almost like you've done this before... oh, wait you have :)

As much as I love your modern writings, I have to say I'm really delighted to see you go back in time because you have such a gift for poetic and lyrical text and making the archaic accessible and inventing.This sounds and feels so different from Brakes and Hold Me Down and The Pick-Up and yet the characters and the situation you put them in are just as compelling.

I'll have proper comment soon - but I really need to eat first - and take the time to re-digest the story too.

As promised, proper comment:

There is something so beautifully complete in this story. Changmin's journey is one where you could argue he starts strong and ends weak, but at the same time argue that he starts weak, and ends strong. It's a gift as a reader to have so much room to interpret.

While others of his kind contented themselves to live within a single drop of water, Changmin... was only truly happy once he ( ... )

Thank you ♥ They would definitely have fought horribly once Yunho realised what Changmin had given up for him #changst

It's going to be interesting to see how much of the sacrifice theme goes into Koto!Chang now. Either way, it's an appropriate theme for the end of the year.

This story is really, really good! I loved the way you wrote it. The language, the descriptions, the narrative, everything felt different from your other fics and I think that's magical! You're such a great author, with so much talent and imagination. Thanks for sharing this with us! ^^

I speacilly liked so many details: the way Changmin felt inside the chest, the fact that after so many centuries in it he was almost sad to lose its familiarity. And the way Yunho is introduced! Brave but scare and so, so human; relieving his emotions braking things, exploring to calm himself down ( ... )

Thank you! This has been an interesting year for me in writing, because usually I write 60% historical stuff and 40% contemporary, and this is my first long (pseudo)historical of the year. Which feels a bit weird, actually! But the next one is also a historical so obviously it's the time of year for them, haha.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this one ^^ and I wouldn't have let Yunho die, I couldn't write a HoMin fic with a sad ending! Thank you again :)

How did you know I am obsessed with djinn fables and tales of deserts, magic and palaces? HOW?

I love this so much. The whole thing is bittersweet and in spite of the completely different context and roles, Homin were still mostly themselves - I totally cooed over the couple bracelets. Such a Yunho thing to do!<3

I love the 1001 Nights - I remember reading the Burton translation before I was old enough to understand all the rude bits and I asked my dad to explain HAHAHA

Bittersweet is the best description for it. All the way through I was trying to make it pull in two directions. And haha yes Yunho would do couple bracelets, romantic sap XD
