This was awesome, I loved the banter and Kibum's internal monologue. I liked the upfront lack of enthusiasm for the date and his messaging with Jonghyun. It's so, completely cool that Jinki is all suave and knowing in this fic...not his usual bumbling self that people often write. Ahhh, how I would love to be rescued from dates like this. I hate dating...the formal side of it anyway, so I feel Kibum's pain here ... and your pain I guess. I hope I find my Jinki one day :)
Thanks for this, it really made me chuckle after a hard day at work.
these was 10000% my dating experiences here tho. the dates being so awful i completely checked out and sat on my phone whining to my friends the whole time. sadly no hero jinki to save the day tho.... dating is the worst.
i'm not a huge fan of bumbling jinki. its cute sometimes but often it just feels so... unimaginative. like the boy is a complex human being, he's smart and funny and caring.... reducing him to 'i eat chicken and nothing else' and tripping over air as his whole character makeup is lazy writing and pretty insulting. WHEN WILL THESE TROPES DIE ALREADY?
I love that Jinki was so smooth and just bailed Kibum out like that. What a douchebag that date was. It always amazes me how some people can't seem to take a hint when the person they're with is truly uninterested. But I mean if Kibum was having a good date he wouldn't have ended up with Jinki so I can't complain too much lol.
lol smooth jinki is the best. i can never tell if it's just pride or willful ignorance or what like... it's so fucking obvious when someone isn't into you. let it go...
your fic was absolute gorgeous :) "Roommate lost his key and the landlord is out. That’s my favorite one. That way I don’t have to kill off dear auntie Soobin every time I have a bad date. The fake tears get exhausting,” Jinki suggested, sitting down across from Kibum with his own drink." - i aboslutly LOVED this sauve and sexy jinki. the best thing about this fic was was that both the characters were not underplayed, both of 'em were strong in their own right, confident jinki and self assured key makes this fic amazing :))))))))
