This story was such a treat to read! Kyungsoo made himself so hard to love, hard for himself and hard for others. And even though he changed for Jongin, he changed so quietly, without any fuss that it would be easy to overlook or distrust. (At least that's my excuse for Jongin not trusting how different Kyungsoo after their friendship and why he could reject him like that.) I especially loved the way Kyungsoo changed even more after Jongin rejected him. He continued to open up to others, make friends, and even have a real relationship. I always love characters who end up at the end of their story someone they never expected to be, changed in ways they never would have expected or even wanted. Thanks for such a great story!
Omygosh i thought i was never going to see this prompt come to life! But it did and i really am so so thankful to the author <3 <3 <3 i had pictured a slightly more light-hearted story when i prompted but u really pulled it off and made it your own :) i liked the tone of the story and the characterizations. It's a bit angsty like u said in the author's note but it worked out well. I dunno if u purposely left out telling the readers of some sad background story for ksoo explaining how he got to be the way he is, but i think leaving it out made the story seem more real and we got to focus more on the present.
I also really loved the way u described jongin, beautiful jongin. He really is, isn't he? (but kyungsoo can be beautiful too! :)) jongin and ksoo and the other exo members with their flaws and imperfections. Thanks for making them more relatable. Other things to love in this story: sehun and the way he looks out for kaisoo, how u called luhan 'pretty little thing' (coz he is!), baeksoo, and squint-and-you'll-miss-it suchen :)

I really like the story! Its one of my fav in this fest, the story is so beautiful, playboy kyungsoo with wallflower jongin, i didnt know that i need this story so badly until i read this fic. I think the idea is so original maybe because i haven't read anything like this? I dont know, but i love it! I really like the twist you put into the story. Eventho jongin fall in love with kyungsoo but he knows they'll never work out so he totally reject the idea of dating kyungsoo. I feel like he is matured somewhat, or maybe he is coward? For kyungsoo, i really like his character development, from a playboy who has a history of multiple one night stands to a guy who appreciate the man that he loves. You write baekhyun, not as a rebound guy for kyungsoo but as a lesson for kyungsoo to change and be a better person. I can see kyungsoo put a lot of effort when he is in a relationship with baekhyun. The ending is so sweet, kyungsoo and jongin want to give it a try and i really like jongin's line “I still don’t have my closure”, it implies that
