IM HERE! So sorry im late with this, I’ve been a bit swamped with uni and packing cos im going abroad ;;
BUT YES OH MY GOD YOU WROTE ME XIUKAI IVE BEEN SO THIRSTY FOR XIUKAI LIKE YOU HAVE NO IDEA THANK YOU SO MUCH. Okay first of all I LOVED THIS, im gonna go through it bit by bit, apologies in advance for all the disjointed rambles!

First off I love how his attachment to his guitar and music comes through so clearly, you can really see how much it means to him, he’s literally terrified of spending so much time without it UGH IT’S SO LIKE JONGIN TO BE SO DEEPLY DEVOTED AND PASSIONATE ABOUT SMTHN LIKE THAT TT

“he felt a familiar anxiousness rising up from his chest. Jongin tried to keep his gaze away from the guitar leaning against the foot of the bed, but like a puppet on a string his head turned until his gaze settled on the black case.” T___T that was such an awesome line HE’S SO DRAWN TO IT, and oh my god the following bits where you described his thought/feelings process of desperately hoping he’ll ~feel~ the music this time

Omg this was SO precious and good and good and precious! It's Christmas Eve and I have a ton of things to get done so I don't have time to write a proper comment now but I couldn't not leave one bc I love this fic so much!

Just very quickly, I love how fixed Jongin is on Minseok even though the object of his "fascination" is so grumpy LOL. I love jongin's not-so-subtle attempts to get Minseok to spend more time with him and the "mandatory" snow "stuff" sobs. the frozen reference lol! the snow angels, the snow fight, the badly built snowman, everything was just so fluffy and just >>>0

AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON JONGIN ASKING MINSEOK IF HE CAN ... ARGHHHH. Just kill me now! You really did a fantastic job with building up the attraction between them bc the UST was just A+. A fucking +. And ofc the UST wasn't enough bc you gave us some actual ACK to share in too - bless you!

Chanyeol giving relationship advice at "ass o'clock" PMSL! i mean this is just the cutest exchange LOL

“So what am I supposed to do

[fairyminseok]

omgosh!!!! This was so /frustrated but happy noises

The way you described Minseok had me screaming this whole fic was like cute almost banter and then just sexual tension

What happened next was a bit of a blur, the meeting of plush lips, hot glide of tongues, tightening of fingers in his damp hair and the press of the mattress beneath this back, as Minseok all but dragged him onto the bed and under him.
YAAAAS

This was so good and I love the way you characterized Minseok and Jongin and poor Jongin with his bad English and Minseok laughing at him
I love it thank you for writing this
