Bam Bam and Yugyeom...Yugyeom had so many terrible experiences my goodness. Mark and Jaebum you bastards...though I don't feel for Youngjae at all and that's terrible since I should
Wow...Jinyoung and Jaebum have issues...but I kind of wanted Jinyoung to stage a company coup rather than what happened lol
I kind of don't want Bam Bam to go back and deal with them again...though I could see Jinyoung acting to support his org due to using him to gather information and then what happened
Although clearly Jinyoung and Jackson are close...eventually Jaebum will be out
thank you for this comment! it's okay if you don't feel for anyone, tbh, i sort of meant to make it such that it'd be hard to actually side anyone other than the main characters in this ;A;
i actually meant to include more on jjp in this but it didn't fit the context so i wasn't able to! ;A; but a company coup sounds about what he would've done XDD thank you again for your comment! ^.^
WELL this was a ride from start to finish! (i didn't see it was 7 parts and started reading it before work and then realised somewhere near the beginning of part 2 that i really had to go aha) it starts off and i'm thinking inter-office romance with some mental games played and then i read on and on and it just kind of like. splintered into a million pieces and oh god it hurt in the pit of my belly but- strangely, out of the 'rich guys', jackson seemed like the most decent. at least he didn't try to drug or OTHERWISE POISON JAEBUM HDU someone (as far as is explored in this story anyway)
i just... I DON'T HAVE WORDS TO EXPRESS EVEYTHING I'M FEELING, EVERYTHING THIS STORY MADE ME FEEL AND THINK AND JUST. i don't have words.
at least it was a happy-ish ending. and by that i mean they got away bc dear god the rich guys are all skeevy af
ahahaha cries yes this was a distressingly long fic ;A; cries i hope it was the good kind of hurt! omg you noticed that ;A; tbh i wanted to make it seem like bambam's situation was a watered-down version of yugyeom's, because jackson was merely copying what jaebum was doing without actually being aware of the motivation and intentions behind his actions, so when it occurred to him how hurt bambam might get from this lifestyle (after the poison) he sort of backed off and just let him go home ahaha T.T i'm sorry this part wasn't conveyed well enough cries ;A;
(yes jaebum is a poop here im sorry)
cries i hope all that occurred in the good way T.T /fans you/ thank you so much for this comment it gave me life cries
(skeevy rich guys thank you for the description such apt much accurate)
apparently in my lack of words last night i failed to mention THAT IT WAS VERY GOOD AND YES ALL THE ABOVE WAS IN THE GOOD AWAY i mean it was also in the i'm-about-to-turn-communist-jfc kind of way but like. it was really good
( ... )
Read this in one sitting and ahdksahfksdk I love how everything is written so seamlessly and so fluidly, even during the tense moments, it's like a dream. Also A+++ for Great Gatsby ♥
Things I loved/stood out for me to the end: 1) Yugbam relationship and how Yugyeom finally broke away from Jaebum ahuhuhuhu I didn't even need the porn for this, it was that great 2) Jackson!!! I was kinda waiting for him to be a total jackass but he still has a heart in this, I'm so glad 3) Jinyoung being scary as hell /shivers. I would not be adverse to backstory/expansion on this /coughs4) The ending!!!! It's like a beacon of hope in the clusterfuck of their lives. I love how they can move on from their past and come out stronger to the point that they're actively changing other people's lives -- ty for including this powerful message
( ... )
thank you so much for this comment omg! ;A; yes im a sucker for the great gatsby idek how that happened T.T
1) omg thank you for understanding about the lack of smut ;A; 2) yes cries i wanted to preserve the image of at least oNE of the rich jerks here because it'd be unfair to say all of them are cruel through and through?? some are just misguided of sorts and some are rly nice and yeah. 3) (i might be doing jjp backstory to thank my baobei cries) 4) cries thank you so much!! 5) yes ;A; because idk personally the one i relate to the most here is youngjae (omg ok this needs a rly long unnecessary explanation which i'll be doing for anyone who has free time to read cries) and yeah youngjae rly made me sad in this story ;A;
thank you so much once again for the gorgeous comment! omg im so honoured to be on your reread list!!! gasp gasp ily ;A;

This was so well-written and such a joy to read! You don't find that many long Yugbam fics in the first place (sobsob haha) but the story was super compelling!
I personally really like social commentary-type fics, and all the different themes came together really nicely. I especially liked how you brought it all together with the gatsby stuff~ I am in awe writer-nim~
All the characters are so sad, especially poor Youngjae ;~; I'm glad Yugyeom and Bambam managed to escape all that and get a happy ending ^^
