My heart's stuck in gridlock... baby, will you be my key?
/or some snappy title like that.
A Yoosu romcom (help_japan) fic for oldwillow_brook :D♥

In which Yoochun’s a corporate somebody and Junsu’s a street-dancing nobody, and they’ve got nothing in common and no reason to meet, but Yoochun’s somehow ended up stalking him anyway.
Part o1/o2 )

There are no words. I am flabbergasted. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START. OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOD. OH MY GOD. O M G. Just this is so good. I am trying not to go crazy on you and just lose my mind but omg omg omg this is so good.

I absolutely LOVE Yoochun's character. And I love that he watches Junsu DANCE/walk. Because Yoochun is right, you might have a voice like Celine Dion but if you don't have it outward you aren't worth anything. I love that Junsu has NO idea how to dress. Or that is his style. He dresses where he's comfortable. That's his personality and it fits his change of tone when Yoochun CHALLENGES HIM.

His whole demeanor changes in a second, going from guileless, quirky kid to this sudden, fierce… presence.

And then he opens his mouth, and he fucking sings. BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL. I can just see Junsu in this outfit, standing out in the street. This expensive tinted windowed car and him just singing into the sky. Like its nothing. Like singing isn't just a "yeah sort of but..." but a "fuck yeah, my ( ... )

OMGG YAY I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU'RE HAPPY ;A;

I was most worried about this part because it's really, well, ALL about Yoochun. Like, you see Junsu a bunch but you do anything BUT see him LOL so it's really Yoochun that's carrying the whole peice. It's not really Yoosu at this point, it's like... creeper-centric, roflolol. Still, there's Yoochun and his Jaejoong and I'm kinda in love with them so Jaejoong was demanded MOAR TIME IN FIC KTHANKBAI and then... there he is. He will not go away anytime soon 8D

"fuck yeah, my voice opens the heavens."LOLOLOL EXACTLY. Again it's another thing where that's the only time Junsu gets to really show himself, who he is, so I'm glad you liked it! I'll admit I was worried about making it work myself LOL, getting like 5k+ into the stalking and being like fuuuuuuuu how am I going to get them together and make it even CLOSE to plausible?? But I just kinda plowed through it, so YAY♥ if you like it and thought it worked ( ... )

Even though you don't really see Junsu or have an interaction because of the way you describe him, me as a reader sort of nods along and think 'yeah, i've had that happen.' OR ITS JUST ME. ;; I swear I might be the only one distracted by people as they walk in my car. I mean everyone walks so DIFFERENT! But no one ever dances like Junsu or I never stop and make conversation ... or stop everyday at the same time. 8DD ( ... )

Just finished reading! Omg, I don't know what to say. I'm all giggly and shit. God, you don't know how much I needed some good Yoosu. Anyway, your description of the fic pretty much says it all. It's a Yoosu romcom. /sob. Figures Junsu would have atrocious fashion sense but good rhythm. Love it when Yoochun's all stalker-y and panick-y. ;A;

Yaaaay ♥ Romcom definitely isn't something I'm secure in writing (as if my flail didn't give that away /cries forever) but if you like it then I consider it a victory \o/ I see Junsu as the type who loves fashion... but has no freaking idea how to put an outfit together. And no idea that he /doesn't/ know how to put an outfit together, lol, the poor dear.

The next part will do much to resolve the fail and panick-y-ness... maybe, rofl :Db

And SPEAKING OF GOOD YOOSU I /finally/ got a chance to sit down and read Wanderlust - it's been my rainy-day save-for-reading for /ages/ and then I read it and asd;alsdafg. I'm going to go back and leave a real comment (one day :'D) but gah. It was so good and it makes me look forward to your new fictions even mooooore ♥

OMG I LOVE THIS. I LOVE IT YOU ARE SO AWESOME.

I. Ugh, I have nothing useful to day but random cursing and exclamations of joy and happiness. THIS IS AMAZING. I didn't even realize how much I missed yoosu (GOOD YOOSU) until just now and ja;lksdfjl;

/WIBBLES RIGHT BACK AT YOU ;~;

Thank you bb! ♥ It's been ages since I've written Yoosu but I've forgotten how much fun they are. Because they're fun. And adorable. And asjla;dslkad :'D But I'm so glad you liked! I'm wrestling with Part 2 right now, hopefully it will be up soon ;)

AAAAAAAAAAH AHHH AAAAH!!! I should've waited until part two ;A; now idk what to do with myself, your story is stuck in my head and i cant wait for their date!!

your characterization is very interesting, i feel like there's so much more to each character that you've only skimmed over in this part. if this was an english class, i'd pick yours to analyze :O

Haha, I'll do my best to get it out as soon as possible! I'm working on it but I don't want to rush and make it less than worth the wait, u-know? ;D

But thank you so much for the comment! I'm flattered you feel that way ♥! English class would be so much more fun if Yoosu-analysis was on the syllabus, rofl

Junsu's pretty young, I'm placing him at 19 or so, which makes Yoochun all the more the creeper, haha. But love knows no age, yah? :D♥
