This is... one of the most thought-provoking pieces I've read in a long time, wayyyy more than Hamlet (sorry Shakespeare). I really admire the mix of futuristic scenarios and present real life situations (makes me think about the people who are constantly multitasking through life).

One thing irking me though, is the explanation for Go!stop, I never really understood how it worked. But time manipulation is always hard to explain so it's understandable.

The end is so unexpected, I thought Hae would just continue living alone or give in to go!stop. But yet so oddly fitting as well, Hae is just constantly pressing the reset button once everyone conforms? Hmm makes me think of the song Reset XDD
After I finished reading I had to give it another read to fully appreciate how nicely you structured it.

A terrific piece of writing, great work!

Wow... I'm kind of speechless lol. I've never read any Shakespeare, but I'm kind of thinking that's a big compliment. I don't think I'll ever be a Shakespeare-like writer. o___o Thanks so much for saying that! /blushes

This is way better than Stephen King! in my opinion that is kekeke... mainly because I don't have to read it twice to understand it kekeke, I'm an airhead like that. This is truly an awesome fic, its saddening though thinking that Donghae has to press the reset button all the time but I think its better that way. It's a little less lonely? something like that. Thank you for sharing ^^ this is definitely going in my memories.

Wow another huge compliment. If you guys keep up like this I'll be as red as a strawberry! xD I'm glad you were able to understand it in one time reading, because many seem to have had some trouble with that. I had some people saying they had to reread it a few times before they really understood it all.

Thank you for making it a memory! ^.^ /adores

This really makes you sit down and re-examined some things in life. Everyone wishes for a reset button, a rewind button, fast-forward button. But I don't think we really thought about the consequences of wishing for things like that until it's too late~

The reset button. /sigh. At least there is some sort of reprieve left at the end. But poor Donghae /huggles

Thanks for sharing! :)

I'm glad that's what the fic does to you, because it's exactly what I did when I saw the picture. I just got to think about how it would be when people were able to control time. There's so many consequences of that that I didn't bring into this fic because they had nothing to do with the plot, but really.. I don't think it's a good thing if we could manipulate time like that. It's bound to go wrong.. Most of what I thought is what you read here, so yeah, that speaks for itself I'm sure. ^.^

Thank you for reading! :D

It's been a while since I've read something that has left me so completely amazed. I love how you built the au, all the details you fit in and how you manage to tell this story in a compressed amount of words without making it seemed rushed at all. This is the kind of piece that makes me sit back and think, forces me to want to reexamine my life a bit, and I never thought a piece of fanfiction would make me do that. I love Donghae's characterization here, how he's resilient and doesn't give up on not falling into the Go!Stop (despite being the one to create omg did not see that coming though I knew there was more to it why Donghae was the only one not to use it) And as a reader I never feel lost despite not getting all the details, you wrote in a way I could piece together myself. My heart hurt a bit for Kibum when I realized they never get to meet after the reset

... I'm completely awed by your reaction. ;A; Give me some time to get over this awesome feeling and reply to your comment decently. First I'm going to read the story again myself to make sure I know exactly what I'm talking about haha. /lives on cloud nine rn

[lyntia]

adjzkhegfkjhg I'm still kind of like high on idek what. xD Your comment made me spazz so much and feel so ... proud. /sounds kind of pathetic now/ Haha thank you for all the compliments, really, I don't know what to say. ;A; Thank you so much

[drawingintheair]

Don't even mention it lol. I don't think I would have read this had you not linked me to it so thank you for letting me know about it

[erinherz]

This... This was just wow. You must have used quite a bit of time on this masterpiece... It's very impressive! ^^

I don't know what to say.. other than I loved it!

[lyntia]

I only spent a few evenings on it, really. Most of it writing way past my bedtime lol. But I was very happy myself with what eventually came out of that staying up late so I can't say I regret losing some sleep over this. :D

Thank you ^^
