This is absolutely beautiful. I can't imagine how anyone could write something serious and beautiful with a "farm animals" prompt but damn, you did it. This little ficlet had atmosphere and setting and the two boys were drawn out so clearly; the delicate bookworm and the tough, gentle farmboy. The descriptions are so lovely, and everything about 2. was just gorgeous. Particularly these two lines: When it faded away, silence took its place in the to-and-fro of your mouths. The slick movement of his mouth tasted of rain, and all you could hear was the wind. Such quiet romance ♥
Yeah... lol I just started writing a crack AU fic based on a manga, but the premise is so ridiculous I'm having a lot of trouble, especially with the way I normally write, haha.
... Only YOU could take a farm animals prompt and a farmer!AU and not only make it not cracky, but actually really kind of gorgeous. Your descriptions, Kai, sdfkjhgdsjk. ♥ Your imagery is the best, I love it. The entire second segment, I was just... rereading over and over again, visualising it in my mind. SOBS I LOVE YOUR WRITING SO MUCH. ♥
your images were so vividly clear and you handled the pov style wonderfully. usually i'm cringing and never read it like this (especially this couple, they've been known to have... weak writers), but you handled it really well.
pretty reads like these are why i can't give up on the couple. just... omg amazing. and... frick i want more ;-;
aafhakdsfl ahhh thank you for such a wonderful comment! I love AUs a ridiculous amount as well ;~;
I know a lot of people stay away from first- and second-person POV when reading (and writing, to a lesser degree) fic, but I think it's got a lot of stigma against it (though it's not completely unfounded) and can work in certain instances. In any case it makes me really happy to hear that the POV style in this worked for you! :3
I don't exactly ship them, but HyukHae are a really cute couple! HyukMin in your icon are adorable as well, wtf ♥ I love them.
I love the descriptive writing in this. I'm not sure why, but I like how even though his skin is so tanned and sunburnt, it's still cold when he touches Hyuk.
farmboy!Hae is so attractive! might there be more from this AU?
Thank you! I'd like to think that despite how Hyuk might see him as being different from him, something out of reach, they're not so different at a fundamental, human level. Donghae's vulnerable to cold just like a regular person, just like Hyukjae :)
Haha, I actually intended this to be left as is, but I do have a couple of ideas floating around. No guarantees, but you never know, something may come out of it :D thanks again!
