i only read the first line of each of their perspectives at first and i thought it was about them leaving each other, but just having the realization of it hit them at different times ( or something like that, i don't know odg ). then i realized they were comforting each other for each other's losses and i think that was something new for me? at least in the way that two different group members console each other after their own member leaving. the imagery was really striking, and i think the subtle differences between how they dealt with their upset showed really well through that.

hehe totally fooled you, didn't i :p

i always have this headcanon about f(exo) members going to people they know for comfort when someone leaves since they know what it feels like (kaistal, chenna etc etc). i'm so glad the differences showed ! thanks for reading <3

wow I almost got fooled. I love how it's totally parallel but you can still feel the difference between the two and not get mixed up between the two characters(?)
also the imagery and analogy with the storm and how the two instances relate with it differently was interesting.
this was a nice read though yun thank you for writing <3

thanks for the prompt and kind words dhia ! <3 i'm really glad that the difference in characters came through, i didn't want them to be perfect mirrors of each other even though their situations are similar.

how do you chen/luna
how do you write
how do you yun

but really, the endings of both parts (?) really got to me - luna hopes and jongdae wishes like he knows he'll never be enough and i cry.
