I, kind of in love with this to the point where I want to take it out on a date and go on a sleigh ride with it ;~;

I love how it's in Minho's narrative, how he's constantly reconfirming what his goals are, what he desires and what kind of edge he think he has over everyone else. How he is also constantly reconfirming how human he is compared to the other people, who are merely products or bodies in his mind. I do like how he thinks of Kibum as just a job instead of a person, detaching himself from feeling things. Which brings me to the last few paragraphs where Minho is drugged and he starts to realize that Kibum is just a person very much like him, and ugh. I am really in love with the last few lines KEY TASTING LIKE LONELINESS AND LIQUOR.

I also adore how Key just one ups Minho in his own game. Never will have enough crime!au, and I love Minkey like this.

Off to shower you with more hearts after lunch ♥

i loved their chemistry. they're obviously attracted to each other. too bad they're from different camps. tsk tsk tsk... what a price to pay for a little flirtation. (was it only flirtation by the way?) - and i love how Kibum outsmarted Minho here. yeah, that's my baby.

This fic is a very enjoyable read. The play between Minho and Key is perfect.

...he realized that if it had really been a roulette, if there had been a gun with five empty chambers and one solid bullet, his brains would have been splattered out along the back wall.
I love the way you've interwoven imagery with fact. The quote above is just my favorite example. *happy pout*
