i know you didn't warn for anything ~dramatic~ (but i've read fics with no character death warning that ended up going for it so.. uhm..) you had me worried there for a bit i admit /hides
nevertheless you managed to make me feel so many things throughout their trip ;;; i love/hate platonic love fics though because i always want more but i totally love how you decided to go about it. that entire segment with the quote that jongdae does not agree with was ♥ i loved it i love their relationship here. really.. this was very interesting and very well written.
thank you for writing this and sharing it! ♥

Haha I'm sorry I made you worried ♡ Honestly, it was kind of what I wanted. I don't really like character death warnings bc I feel like they ruin the suspense -in other words the fun hehe- so you were perfectly right to worry ;) but thank you for reading it even though it made you kind of anxious!

As for the platonic relationship and the fact that you wanted more, it was actually the whole point of the fic. I read so many platonic fics that ended up being more bc it was about romantic feelings being hidden deep down, and I wanted to change that. Love does not always involve romantic feelings, and it was challenging but I really wanted to convey how strong it still was even without the 'romantic' side, you know? Jongdae will always be in live with Junmyeon. But Baekhyun is definitely is soulmate,  his person. :)

Thank you so much for letting a chance to that fic. I know it's not a really attractive fic because it doesn't really give otp feels, so you taking the time to comment it really means a lot. Thanks, again ♡

This was so beautiful and I'm possibly fighting back tears at work because ;___;

When you wrote about Jongdae and why he disagrees with the quote "platonic love is love from the neck up"...just...so many feelings. I 1000% believe in the existence of best friend soulmates and the way you described it is just perfect.

I can't believe Baek actually met someone on the plane though lmao.

Ah sweetheart thank you ♡ I hope I didn't make your day at work too hard! Thank you for reading the fic, really~~

The part with the quote was even supposed to make it to the final version of the fic but it was a last call decision. I wanted this fic to convey a lot of things about platonic soulmates, because just like you I do believe they exist!!!, and that quote kind of states everything that pisses me off about the whole thing, how people think live is always romantic, and that bodies and skinships aren't 'made' for friendship.

Thank you so much for reading it, even though it wasn't satisfying for otp want, and for commenting. It really means a lot ♡

SQUEALS YOU WROTE PLATONIC SOULMATES BAEKCHEN (also heads up, kind of a long comment, esp from someone you don't really know... sorry if it's too much lol)

"They're standing on the edge of the world on the top of their fancy building, and the world turns out to be nothing more than vivid colors and fainted traffic sounds. Tokyo is slowly becoming a mystical city in Jongdae's head, one of those who float on clouds, and he feels like reality is slipping through his fingers with each minute passing by. They're drifting away, losing all traces of time passing by, losing their grips on what they should be doing, and the reason they're here. It's a sweet confusion, bubbling in their chests like ecstasy, and when they finally fall on the bed with the first rays of sunshine around 4am, Jongdae tries to remember how long it's been since they arrived in Tokyo, how many hours they've spent wandering in the streets."
dUDE YOUR WORDS. I love the language in this fic so much omg

He's missed having the sky in his head, and the end of the world at ( ... )

“I know,” Baekhyun nods. The sun is fighting is last battle against the night on the horizon line, and it's painting gold and red on Baekhyun's left cheek. His right cheek is already dark and cold, pale and maybe even shivering. “But it'll never be enough. I will always want more time with you, Jongdae ( ... )

First of all, I'm truly sorry it took me so long to answer to your wonderful comment. Know that I read it the day you posted it though, and it really moved me. So, let me thank you before I add anything else, because you quoted things, you wrote such a long comment, I am truly grateful! I feel like however I'll answer it won't really convey how moved I am, but I'll still try.

The writer in me is really, reall, REALLY, happy it touched the writer in you ♡ thank you for the quotes and for all those beautiful things you said about my writing when I'm just lame most of the time, with a barely understandable English. Thank you for saying I wrote baekchen nicely as well because, damn characterizations are what always make me the most nervous ;_;

As for the character death warning, you were wrong, I'm actually very cruel. I'm totally the type to not include then in the warnings bc I think they ruin the suspense, and sometimes the plot of the story. I really wanted to make people doubt with this Fic and the countdown, so I'm kind of happy ( ... )

lol I've literally been meaning to answer this comment for over a month but I just wanted to say that I'm glad you enjoyed my comment and also platonic!!! soulmates!!!!!!! I assure you I am a huge, huge fan of platonic things (I'm asexual and on the aromantic spectrum, so platonic things make me extra happy^^') and if you wrote more platonic fics I would 1000000000% love to read them ;)

Anyway, I hope you've been well in the last like 5 weeks since you commented!!!! (I'm actually so sorry it's taken so long I have zero excuses for taking so long...)

Breathless is such a big word though, I'm pretty sure it doesn't deserve such an adjective, but thank you so much for using it anyway ♡ for reading it, and commenting!! It means a lot~
