what a fabulous story! I really enjoyed the pace of this and how the time apart made Jiyong realise just how much he missed what he already had. the AU was wonderful and everyone felt so natural in the roles you assigned them. I loved loved loved your beautiful, evocative language and the story itself was so smooth and enjoyable in every way.

thank you for the amazing fic!

ahh i'm so happy you liked the au :D it's definitely not as out there as it could've been, but i'm pleased you enjoyed it regardless, and that you thought everyone fit into their roles :3 ♥ thank you so much!!

perfectly written and very detailed descriptions. So much was described that it doesn't seem like it was actually just 4k. It seems like I could have just finished reading a book. Great job. This is one for the masses.

oh man, thank you so much!! i usually hate writing expos so it felt really weird putting huge chunks of gtop's relationship in explanatory prose, but i'm really happy that it worked for you ♥ you are too kind :*

It definitely works. I want to read more like this. When it ended I felt like an addict needing a fix. I love your writing really. when the names were revealed I had a "I knew it moment" because you're like, one of my favorite authors and it made sense that the one I liked the most was written by you. (that goes for just about everything you write tbqh)

In a way you're like my literary hero. I'd kill for your writing talent. Or just for a little to rub off on me. Maybe I would finish my stories faster that way. lol

This was gorgeously written, I'm in awe of it. I absolutely love how you wrote the two of them and all the little details you sprinkled in of the two of them, and how Jiyong thinks about them and their relationship. The ending was so nicely done and tied in everything together, and your writing was just so smooth. Nothing felt out of place, every word felt like it mattered, and it didn't feel cluttered at all. Thank you for writing something so beautiful ;~;

ahhh cath ;~~~; you're so sweet ♥ i'm so happy that this worked for you!! i have so many feelings about gtop and it was an interesting exercise to work through them in something that's technically an au, but i'm really glad that you enjoyed them in this story ♥ thank you so much!!
