SCREAMSS THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS FIC!! i saw it when it came out, but haven't had the time to sit down and properly comment!!!

this was pretty much everything i ever wanted with that prompt. I just- everything about this fic is really pure gold haha, i really couldn't stop laughing throughout it all and like i just want to quote back it all cause thats pretty much how i feel about every single line here.

first off, that YUGBAM FRIENDSHIP AHHH. it really feels like an actual characterization of their relationship, and you really made all their banter realistic and hilarious. yugyeom is way too soft lol, always going along with bambam's plans haha. i love all the little snarky comments you put in about their relationship. “We’re together all the time,” Yugyeom points out. “What does that say about us?” “We don’t count. / Yugyeom has a feeling that more people would talk to him if Bambam wasn’t attached to his hip for ninety percent of the day. Yugyeom will have to look more into it. / “Where’s Bambam?” Alone, Yugyeom is starting to realize this is the most popular question asked of him. they were all gold and if i'm being honest, no one had to even get together by the end and this would still be amazing just based on these two banter.

but of course, a matchmaking fic wouldn't be complete without matches lolollolol. AND THERE WERE SO MANY. I love how almost all different variation of hyungline and youngjae pairings you put in, from "2jae" with one jae not really knowing the other (and haha, sanghyuk? hakyeon?? helloooo vixx (or big byung lolz) cameos), to MARKSON BROTP and i see that little JJP moment lolz. and then of course, 2young and markbum endgame was perfect. and its really cute how yugbam kinda helped both happen, one more explicitly then the other. all of your characterizations were so on point too, jb's anger management classes and has to take that blood pressure medicine. jackson being overdramatic over everything from breaking up to getting back together, and JINYOUNG FLIRTING WITH AWK!JAE. AWK!JAE GIVES ME LIFE.

the whole last scene with everyone coming together was was a beautiful ending to this, from oblivious jackson to yugyeom dragging bambam back and forth from spying on 2young! to not spying on 2young! to "checking up on" 2young! oh and of course “Jaebum and Mark are making out against Jaebum’s car -- oh my god.” YESH oh dear haha im sorry for your life jackson. and then the ending coming into a complete circle with the beginning “You think as payment Youngjae will surrender his smoothie reward cards? You know, so I can get free large next time?” was perfect. (and also, really weird comment but i love how smoothies was used as the choice of drink in this lollolz, just because i can relate bambam. strawberry-banana smoothie clutched between his hands and sucks it down greedily, pausing at lengthy intervals only because the brain freeze is too powerful for him to combat. this is me all the time. i live on smoothies. smoothies are life. )

all in all, thanks so much for this!! it really was enjoyable, can't wait for reveals so i can stalk the rest of your stuff!
