i don't even know what to say ... this fic was amazing and unpredictable, i was holding my breath the entire time i was reading. *thumbs up* good job to the author! :)
i was going for the surprise edge despite leaving hints here and there, so i'm glad you felt the way you did! ;w; thank you very much for reading and commenting ♥
Hours after and my heart still aches at the thought of this fic. The ending just... came in like a wrecking ball. I love the pacing, how you wrote the build up and how the attraction was instant. AND THE TENSION. THE WAY YOU WROTE THE TENSION WAS JUST amazing. I will never be able to get over this fic.
And the tiny moments-
Kyungsoo’s hand has moved to Baekhyun’s nape I love this because THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE A LOT? The way you used this in the fic as a marker of possessiveness is so lovely.
Baekhyun stops himself from curling his fingers around Kyungsoo’s wrist just in time. He’s mine. FINGERS. CURLING. Yes, yes, yes. ;~~;
ever-mysterious Kyungsoo. You think you know him, but you really don't.
It’s too easy around Kyungsoo; this game, this push-and-pull, whatever this is, is enjoyable. This line is BaekSoo in a nutshell, tbh.
as if to catch him when Baekhyun is really the one falling. I HAD TO STOP AT THIS LINE and collect myself. Oh god. The way you use short statements to evoke so much emotion is ASTOUNDING.
i'm really, really elated that you liked this; that means so much to me ydek ;; ♥ thank you so much for holding my hand through this (+ catching errors and leaving suggestions) and being there for me even when i was dying about formatting lol i really wouldn't have done it without you! ;o;
also w o a h that last part about how baekhyun is rationalising and overthinking all at the same time YES you always decipher their dynamics so well!
thank you so much for everything, bbgirl, i love you ;~~~~; ♥
i really really want to leave a comment that does this fic justice but i am truly at a loss for words right now, this is anything and everything i want in baeksoo and i also think onyu pointed out everything i would have anyway! the chase is what made it all so enticing and wow this was just. so perfect. i cannot wait for reveals~!
shhhh what are you saying, commenting is already doing this fic more justice than it deserves! ;n; i'm really happy baeksoo in this setting worked for you, and that you enjoyed the 'race' of sorts between the two of them!
I CANNOT EXPLAIN HOW THIS PHYSICALLY PAINED ME, I READ THIS THE OTHER DAY AND COULD NOT STOP THINKING ABOUT IT. AT WORK I WAS THINKING ABOUT IT AND I WAS THINKING ABOUT IT WHILE IN THE SHOWER IT JUST PAINED ME. AND I KEPT FEELING BETRAYED BECAUSE I HAD A FEELING DEEP DOWN KYUNGSOO WAS THE ESPER (BUT HE WASN'T THAT WAS HIS DAD AND HE JUST TOOK HIS IDENTITY AND I JUST PAIN AND PAIN. BUT I KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WITH SOO.)
“I don’t want your money. I want you,” the man says, in a tone of finality, holding out a hand between them. goDDAMMIT I WAS JUST SQUINTING AT THIS PART BECAUS EI WAS SO CONFUSED BUT THEN IT ALL CAME TOGETHER.
Baekhyun burnt all the letters. nononONONONO.
But the depth in the boy’s eyes is magnetic, an invitation for Baekhyun to come and drown in them. Something flits across them, light as a feather but heavy and dark, runs away just as quickly as it had come. ihu.
“Well, we’ll see who learns each other’s secrets first, then.” THIS WAS FORESHADOWING WASN'T IT
Hurt and betrayal are set into the hollow depths of her
( ... )
GENTLY WRAPS MY ARMS AROUND YOU AND BURIES MY FACE IN YOUR SHOULDER ;A;
to explain a little bit, though, kyungsoo's father was the esper, but not the person who picked baekhyun off the streets, that was just somebody i'll leave unnamed c: the esper passed his knowledge of pressure points to kyungsoo and trained him from a very young age to kill in exactly the same way, so that the name can 'live on', somehow, but as kyungsoo grew older, he became increasingly more bloodthirsty and didn't like being in the shadows, i guess. the esper had been watching baekhyun for a while and intended to take him under his wing for all the prowess he showed in his assassinations, and it's safe to say that when kyungsoo was following him around, he fell for baekhyun's destructive capabilities all the same and killed both his father and baekhyun's benefactor to have him all to himself - albeit with a little game to see if baekhyun is really all he wants.
you read into their dynamics really well! ;w; kyungsoo was enjoying the way he pushed baekhyun off
( ... )
this is too intense for me i don't think you know what you are doing to me rn
Kyungsoo doesn’t falter when Baekhyun tugs him closer by a fistful of his robes. In a whisper, Baekhyun says, “I released you for you, someone who tries to drown me every time I see him.” He pulls down Kyungsoo’s collar, excruciatingly slow and drawn-out on purpose, and presses a kiss against the cross, still red and fresh from the night before. oh god oh go d oh god oh god
“I’d rather drown you than keep you afloat. That way, you won’t be able to run from me. Ever.” this is so possessive and perfect i just wow
Baekhyun stops himself from curling his fingers around Kyungsoo’s wrist just in time. He’s mine. kill me now i seriously can't handle this. this is so fucking beautifu, i've been wanting to read something like this for a while i just. who are you. i Need to know who you are
