just noticed the hyungseung because someone pointed it out! but it's like the g is invisible anyway.

I REALLY LOVED THIS. it was a great feeling to go into this without liking kiseung, but just the way that you've written them makes me interested. it takes something really well-written to make someone feel that way!

i loved the way you interpreted the prompt. since i'm a really dumb person, it's very easy for me to get confused on how the prompt was interpreted. but this didn't even need an author's note to help me out. also, it seems like taking pictures would be such a cliched prompt, but you made it so personal to hyunseung and unique.

ngl i got very sad reading all the mentions of big bang and hyunseung's past. BUT THIS ISN'T A BAD THING BECAUSE I LIKE CRYING NOT REAL CRYING AND I KIND OF LOVE IT WHEN BEAST WRITERS TOUCH ON THAT SUBJECT ANYWAY.

that being said, this fic blew me away. your writing style and your pacing kind of did that for me.

ugh I didn't even realize the typo until the fic was posted and then I sat there agonizing because I was supposed to be anonymous and therefore COULD NOT FIX IT D: look at me and my unimportant fandom problems whoooohoo.

I am so happy that you came out of this liking kiseung! they're an interesting twosome that doesn't get as much love from fandom as say, dooseob or junseob. and I'm glad (and incredibly honored!) that you liked this as much as you did. thank you for reading ;___;

first off, I cannot believe you took the time and energy to write this long comment after your browser crashed. I've had that happen to me many a time and that really means a lot to me :(

I'm really happy, too, that hyunseung/big bang worked for you, because for me it was really uncharted territory. hyunseung in general, actually, is uncharted territory so I'm glad that you liked the characterization! kiki, too, since he is deceptively difficult to portray without veering into stereotypes (as you mentioned). so really, thank you for taking the time to read and then, on top of that, taking the time to leave me a comment. I really appreciate it :(

This deserves many more comments. It's a really good story: solid storytelling, believable settings and character development, and a really nice feel. I'm happy I stumbled across it. Thank you very much!

sob I'm glad you liked it! thank you so much for reading and commenting :)

I felt at times as though you stretched Hyunseung to fit a certain role, because even though he was bitter/possibly depressed after not making it into Big Bang, there were certain things you wrote that I just couldn't place with his character. Obviously, though, characterisation is up for debate because we can't really know. That said, I definitely think you made it work well in the context of your story, nothing went so far as to be unbelievable, and most of the time, it didn't really bother me. On the other hand, I absolutely loved your Gikwang. Everything you wrote, from his dialogue to his actions, I could imagine happening, and it was wonderful

I trust your characterization way more than mine, so I'm glad you commented on that :) and if you're ever not so busy I'd still love a crash course in hyunseung/what I did wrong from you. this was hard as hell to write and I'm glad you liked kiki! if it isn't already obvious I love kiki and I try to convey that whenever I write him.

and I agonize over my writing all the time so it means a lot that you of all people liked it and told me about it. so thank youuuuu :( <3
