SPOT SPOT SPOT!!!

Okay, okay, let me take a moment to breathe, because this fic was all sorts of wonderful and all I was looking for when I sat down and typed out the prompt

[d_ecrease]

lol shit i would just continue this comment because i feel like picking out the parts that stood out most to me.

I miss you, appears in a new bubble on the screen, and Jongin can feel spikes shooting straight into his chest.

gahhhh jongin go back to kyungsoo tell him you miss him too!

“Packing,” says Jongin calmly. He doesn’t know where this reservoir of serenity came from, is surprised that his tone comes out smooth and even, but doesn’t let his own shock stop him. He pulls out the backpack he used in college, a large hand coming down to beat the dust off of it.

“But… Where are you going?” asks Kyungsoo. This time his voice escapes him in a shaky question, voice quaking just enough for Jongin to stop himself and look at Kyungsoo. Previously narrowed eyes are now staring widely at him, confusion an invisible veil Kyungsoo can’t see through.

aww bb kyungsoo ;_;;;;;;;;;;; let me squish you you poor baobei “So what you’re saying is you don’t want to see me anymore?” Kyungsoo’s voice is hollow, and Jongin wills himself not to

(whispers it's okay it's love) (literally) (i'm so touched that you actually bothered to go through this entire thing and quote it omg i wouldn't)

THIS WAS SUCH A ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS I WAS BITING MY FIST THROUGH ALL THE ANGST AND GRABBING MY TISSUES FOR EVERYTHING ELSE IN BETWEEN. My heart is so giddy right now I don't even know how to explain it but this fic. This fic. This is so amazing and I've always wanted something like this--a fic in which either Kyungsoo or Jongin went about, meeting different people that showed him different aspects of love, all accumulating to the realisation of how he felt for Kyungsoo. Your writing is absolutely fantastic and the detail to each city and interaction was utterly beautiful. I honestly want to talk about everything EACH AND EVERY PART OF THIS FIC WAS BRILLIANT but that last scene just--what a way to end it. Absolutely perfect. You know the phrase 'sometimes you have to grow apart to grow together'? You nailed it. And every flashback just showed how much they loved each other, and every revelation of Jongin's only highlighted that. They just had their own share of misconceptions and that's what happens when you grow with someone.

I HOPE YOUR FIST IS OKAY /bandages it for you

when i first saw this comment i literally had to exit and run off and do something else tbh because omg you are waaaaay too kind T______T i'm glad you managed to find, in this fic, something you've been looking for! tbh i had to sit and give this a long think because they weren't going to be together physically, and... how was i... supposed to convey their love for each other??? /falls on my face but yeah i'm really glad you felt the things i wanted you to feel <3333

really i'm very very very thankful that you took the time to read this thing and leave me such a nice long comment!!! thank you so much hehe i hope when you wake up tomorrow your blanket sprouts flowers because you're a lovely person and that is what you deserve <333

[uponinfinity]

KAY <3333 hehehe you commented on this before we were introduced i'm sure and i was like ohhh T_____T this wonderful rainbowtoxicity person T_________T so kind too kind for me and now that i've gotten to know you YES YOU'RE ALL THE MORE TOO KIND FOR ME!!!!

and sighs yes tbh i was pretty anxious because a lot of fic in fandom has that big explosive firework display type of love, and i wanted this to be a bit more of a slow burn, and T________T idk i felt like people might get BORED BECAUSE THIS ISN'T REALLY A STORYBOOK LOVE THIS IS A LIFE LOVE OTL but i'm so so so glad you liked it + got what i wanted to convey YOU ARE TOO GOOD TO ME I DON'T DESERVE YOU I DON'T DESERVE THIS

[uponinfinity]

weeps you really are the sweetest rainbow child to walk this earth love and i!!! am very lucky to have you <333
