GDI FINALLY!!!!

Hahahahaha YAY! Okay okay. Ahhh there are so many things I liked in here that it's kinda hard to express....so I'll just vomit them all here.

1) Yixing and his bluntness. Jongin collapsed on the floor across from him, sitting with legs crossed. “What’s that?” he asked, eyeing the instrument. “A guitar,” Yixing replied in that blunt manner of his, without looking up. LOL That made me laugh for some reason...

2) Jongin and his dancing. Omg the characterization is on point..

3) GUHHH brotp...is kinda..endearing??? lol. Can't believe I'm saying that.

4) Your attention to detail really brings it to life. Seriously. It feels so canon it hurts..lol

5) I expect more magic from you, Steph. :] Make me change my mind about Lay LOL

[unfinishedwing]

I'M SAYING "GDI FINALLY!!!!" TOO. Do you know how long it takes me to write over 4000 words omfg kill me. This is partly the reason why I marvel at your ability to write 5000 words of fluff (the other reason being... fluff lol)

Your comment about the characterization, that means so much to me asdfja;dsf Thank you for your comment vomit lol ♥

And omg kailay is "endearing"?! I'll take what I can get! :D Don't worry, I've got more kailay fics up my sleeve (which will be finished... eventually). I'll make you see how loveable Lay is haha

is it possible that the imagery of this paragraph
[ Yixing was the lightning. His dancing was impeccably precise and sharp, like how the lightning in a thunderstorm races through the sky and meets the earth in exactly one spot on the ground. Yixing’s dancing was Mother Nature’s display of raw power and sheer ferocity. Controlled. Unprocessed by technical training. Like the way a flash of lightning left people in pure awe mixed with primal fear. But if Yixing was the lighting, Jongin was the thunder: the thunder that rolled after the lightning had struck, the thunder that left the last impression. His dancing rumbled from somewhere deep within himself, spreading and booming with untainted passion and love. The emotions were all uncontained and unrestricted; it was the kind of dancing that could shake a person to their very core. ]
was soooo damn beautiful it made me cry tear up?
i`m such a weirdo orz

Like. I am not even done with the story and I am already so in-love it.

[aishiteruyuto23]

OH MY GOD THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND YOU'RE NOT A DANCER?
but the way you describe their dancing was so perfect. proves that you're not a dancer but an amazing writer
seriously. the images in my head because of this story. everything was soooo beautiful and their relationship.
probably one of my absolute favorite Yixing/Jongin dynamics! usually, I'm all for actually shipping this pairing--as in them together, but just having them, like, understand each other in a way nobody else could... with like, no romantic feelings. oh my god. my feelings. really. i loved it so much. this pairing <3

and! i really like the SeKai bit xD brat maknae is so cute.

in a nuthsell, i am in love with your writing and this story.

[unfinishedwing]

OTL Replied too early (or late?) without refreshing the page! lol.

tbh I have two left feet. This perhaps explains my fascination with dancers in k-pop?!

I have too many feels for this ship. I like them together, I like them as just bros -- whatever I can get lol. It's a pity more people don't ship it (trying my best to convert exo fans slowly by writing kailay fics haha)!

But aw thank you so so so much for the kind words! Really ;__;

[aishiteruyuto23]

....can't really complain how they are (bros/boyfriends) with the lack of LayKai around. xD
OMG YOU NEED TO WRITE MORE. I WILL STALK YOU READ EVERYTHING.

[binarysun]

oh my god, this is perfect. I mean--wow, I really mean it.
You captured their dynamic so well. That metaphor will forever be in my mind now - that Jongin is the thunder and Yixing the lightning ;_; I MEAN WOW. I could totally believe that this is exactly how their relationship with one another started; you wrote it so...life-like and so true to their characters. URGHHH. FEELINGS.
I also wanted to add that I love your writing style - it was so perfect for this fic, the right amount of dialogue and pacing and whatnot and ;jhkjhfkgj o k this is my favorite brotp in exo and i love you for writing this so i am done and gone
/favs forever

[unfinishedwing]

/hides face out of embarrassment
sdfj;asldfja;dsfas argh thank you!!! I'm so happy you enjoyed it :D
kailay is my favorite brotp in EXO too! I have a headcanon that they became best bros after late night dance practices with just the two of them and nothing can ever make me believe otherwise o k a y lol

[jia028]

can i demand for more? :)
the world needs more kaixing, really
it was really niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[unfinishedwing]

hahaha of course! Do you have a prompt in mind?
Thanks for reading and commenting! ♥ (and yes, the world definitely needs more kaixing!)

[enen_chan]

this was beautiful~~~ ;~~; i loved the way that yixing slowly changed, but not really, jongin and their whole relationship built on dance and then singing was just ;~~~; and that imagery of lightning and thunder to describe their dancing was just gorgeous~~ kaixing needs more love~~~ ♥

[unfinishedwing]

Thank you so much ;~; I'm extremely flattered, sob Glad you enjoyed it!
