YASSS FINALLY YOU WROTE THIS ASDFKLDSJAFKLJDF YEY!!! BEST VALENTINE'S DAY GIFT EVER!! if you disregard the chocolates i bought for myself lmao

[baekmebacon]

and YOU DID NOT EVEN BUY ME SOOOME? ;;

[xiujaemin]

i am a sensible woman, so i didn't buy chocolates for you. bcs they would've rotten. or someone could've eaten them when i wasn't looking. and it seems like the next time we'd be seeing each other would be after quite a while

[onism]

silently cries because at least i get to see a happier thing in this au

im still a little hung up on grayscale tho like, why this, they are literally perfect for each other i don't understand.

cries a little for minseok being rejected, poor bby just wants some love giddd

okay im hella incoherent rn but like this is great and my heartstrings have been tugged again oh lord. (tbh anything with xiuhan tugs my heartstrings one way or another, your relationship dynamics tho. they tug my heartstrings even more so than usual qwq)

also krisbaek and that minor xiubaek

[baekmebacon]

that is the question, isn't it? if they're so perf for each other why are they not soul mates? :OOOO

thanks so much for reading and commenting on this! ^____^

I finally made it here on my bookmarks :'D haha

whaee! This is so ngh!! b/c I've read greyscale! D:
From the very beginning to the end, I felt grey D:

The story over all is so melancholic that the feeling doesn't leave me even after they get together :c Especially since I know what happens next -and don't you dare ask anyone to forget it!? Why would they!? D:<
I find it even more painful that Luhan was the one to take initiative, and Minseok was so vary but Luhan lulled him into a comfortable space BUT GOD DAMN IT GREAYSCALE!!

I've always seen these two as a clam sort of couple, with Luhan being the forward one, and they're pretty much like that :) Mature and comfortable but angst oh gwad angst! D:
You have to write something happy please! Something about krisbaek may be just saying

[baekmebacon]

but... but... i asked u to forget grayscale while reading this because this was supposed to be happy and fwuffy~ and so as not to subtract from the fluffyness of this fic?????????

/grabs crayons and colors your face/ >:DD

(idt i'd be writing the krisbaek anytime soon, im lagging behind on the sequel alr ;;;;;; but i rly do want the krisbaek fluff)

thank u for reading and commenting bubu

I didn't know there was a prequel. Reading it at the end just makes the whole thing sadder.

“Sorry, I really am. You should wait too, until you find each other. I’m sure it will be worth your while.” He took back the rose and crumpled the confession note he spent hours writing, shoving it in his knapsack, ready to bail.

He was about to tell her ‘no, he’s never going to dream of such a thing anymore’ when he saw the hopeful look on her face, hands together as if she’s praying. Praying that one day she’ll find her soul mate and be happy for the rest of her life, like a happy ever after in her world. And so, Kim Minseok swallows his sourness and nods at her, the pang of rejection still making his heart heavy. That whole bit there. Shot through my heart. Minseok dies because of his soul mate. Better to have loved and lost than never loved at all, but why the balls would you wait for anyone? Take the plunge. Go hardcore. Plenty of fish in the sea; get a seafood sampler. Pick your favourite

but amanda, the girl is like "i'm nemo's father. there may be other fishes in the sea but all i'm looking for is nemo."

hahahaha thank you for reading!

[canadaphile]

...So you're saying she's neurotic and obsessive.

[baekmebacon]

how is that....

[tomatomc]

oh boy i did this whole prequel sequel thing all wrong. having read the last story first makes everything sadder, and poor babies especially luhan and i just want to wrap both of them with a blanket, keeping them warm and protect them from everything sad and scary and i'm really weak how do i read grayscale now.

[baekmebacon]

well... grayscale is not that sad compared to the sequel... you can handle it, promise!!!!! > 3< thank you for reading and commenting!!!!
