I'm actually really looking forward to this.
the way you described the way jonghyun is is completely different from how I've seen ghosts written, and it's awesome. most ghosts can't be touched, but jonghyun can. not only that, but the way you described the static crawling on his skin is amazing because most ghosts I've read about are just transparent.
and the fact that he played playstation is incredible in itself beause he can actually play it.

ohhhh man, am I excited.

omg awesome!! thanks so much for reading :DD it's taking longer to write than i expected because i'm trying to make each chapter longer instead of these dinky 500-word updates, plus I started a new WIP (self-control. i lack it). but this is definitely not abandoned and an update is in the works. :>

um hi I haven't finished reading this yet but I just want you to know how excited I am that you're writing again!! I checked your lj on a whim because I wanted to share super with one of my friends (and I'm considering writing some mundane powers au of my own, maybe) and then I saw you wrote something and I'm just...so. freaking. excited. and I swear I'll reply to this with ACTUAL commentary when I finish this fic but I just couldn't wait to screech because hi!!!!!

[nautisch]

THIS IS SO GOOD. ghost fics are the best!! I love your writing style. the way you write, no matter how grave the circumstances, is always so soothing to read. I'm bad at describing stuff, but it's so good ugh. I love the way you describe jonghyun's ghost-existence, it's unique (television static, dandelions, etc.), but it makes perfect sense and makes a really nice picture. and just jonghyun in general. he's perfect in this. ugh I'm so happy you wrote something!!

is there a ghost fic genre is that a thing omg. also PLEASE write a mundane superpowers AU please i will read the shit outta that, i don't even think i care what fandom. (wait does this mean you're writing again? O___O)

you're so nice gah. i'm super rusty it's kind of hilarious. but soothing! that makes me happy, i was hoping this would come off more as slice of life than angst? i'm realizing now that i'm probably not cut out for serial fic-writing but i'm trying lmao. gosh i keep rereading both of these comments. thank you!! you're the best.

I've only read a handful of ghost fics but it should most definitely be a bigger thing! and uh..ha..haha...in addition to kpop fandom I have like half a foot in some other fandoms that I don't feel comfortable writing for so my writing process consists of a) unfinished shinee/snsd wips and b) lists of ideas I want other people to write. life is hard :(

it definitely feels more slice-of-life than angst and in my book that is a very good thing because the only thing better than fantasy aus are slice-of-life fantasy aus! good luck with writing and just know that I am cheering you on constantly
