hello aire i just came back from rereading some of your work and oh how fond i am of your hynjn’s in every au i don’t know how to describe it but there’s a certain essence in him that you capture so so well. you’re great at characterizations
i just read roadkill and i havent been so absolutely enthralled by a fic like this in a while 😵💫 i immediately devoured nuclear family right after and i even scrounged the comments for any more scraps of information cuz the layers in this universe go sooooo crazy!!!! may i greedily ask if you have any more in mind for this series?! on top of the wonderfully cerebral way you write jlx’s povs i am so curious about the chn and mnh situation?? like what are the odds that 2 freaks are operating within the same circle! what does mnh get out of messing w chn (altho as i’m writing this i just had an idea possibly)?! i just imagine them confronting each other like the spiderman meme HAHA but please don’t feel pressured by this ask tho!! i am just a passionate (new) fan
hi!! tysm this series is for sure a guilty pleasure. there is a chngjn in the works but i don’t want to reveal anything about it until it’s ready hehe. mnho’s mindset w chan is more from a place of insecurity and jealousy - chn knew jsng first, therefore mnho has to establish himself as superior - and he recognises flx from his previous life but doesnt want to bring it up in case it draws attention to his own forged relationship!
I keep thinking about the new fosw installment. I was so upset reading it, for obvious reasons, but the more I think about it, the more I realize they needed a catalyst like this to take them to this next stage in their relationship of Jisung finally putting his foot down about Minho and also that given how Minho was acting, an injury like this was inevitable sooner or later. I’m really in awe.
I just need to tell you how much I love Managing Expectations. I read it once, and then I read it outloud to my wife, and I really just wish I could reread it for the first time all over again. It’s so, so lovely.
Can I just say that I loved the jlx platonic kiss!!! I wonder if Felix will ever get to see than minchan kiss 👀… I love the concept of some polyamory within the main ships and you gave us such good tasteful peak at that made me weak to me knees and it looks like Chan would agree 🤪
Jsng is MUCH more jealous than Mnho in fosw, so I’m not sure how into that he’d be unfortunately 😔 Mnho is possessive but he doesn’t feel the need for real jealousy meanwhile Jsng is like IS HE PRETTIER THAN ME🥺
Lix however would LOVE it lmao he wants to watch his new hot dangerous boyfriend get tongued and pushed around by someone just as hot and dangerous
”i love hynlx as toxic codependent rivals”
oooooo the codependecy aspect of it bled into fosw, atleast from hyvne 😭
ok out of your main ships, are there any pairings WITHIN those that you’d ever like to explore/ or that you just enjoy the thought of or to read?
like minlix, hyunho, changlix, jillix etc you know what i mean?
what setting would you have liked to see them in, if so?
I’m a fan of mnbn, mnlx, hyunho, chnsng, hynlx! In very particular settings/plots. mnlx will always be my morally ambiguous cat pairing, i love hynlx as toxic codependent rivals, hynho as people that are perfect together on paper but go together terribly irl… i love drama hahahaha i love a plot that has angst and sexual tension and things that arguably should not be happening
chan and jisungs reactions to accidentally walking in on minho and felix
aire i need your cheating thoughts
just finished fosw part 6 WHY DID THE ENDING SCARE ME WHY AM I SCARED
reading the latest installment with the knowledge of what will happen for fosw mnsng for ur past retro answers is so wow oof ouch yup your very clearly painting the picture. anyway i love all the ways you explore protection and debts and guilt and safety in fosw. especially flx’s (seeming?) lack of awareness of how much hyvnjn built himself around protecting flx
hehe thank you!!! yeah there’s still a LOT unresolved between hynlx. a lot of flx’s later teen years and early twenties are basically a fog to him, he internalised so much and still hasn’t come to terms with how much he missed! and how much hynjn’s own current psyche is centred around keeping lix safe
Hi bestie!! I have been absolutely devouring the fosw updates, it’s one of my fave skz series EVER. Absolutely no pressure but do you have plans to continue the Thinking of You series? The way you wrote that specific minsung broke my brain for a long time 🙂↕️🙂↕️
sweet lovely aire how does it feel to be perfect and amazing at everything you do!!!!!!! sending you love and gentle hugs your brain is beautiful <3 💛💛 most talented baby chick ever!
i don’t know what prompted this if someone said anything to you or anything but the top/bottom discourse is so annoying. i wrote lix as a top once in a chlx wip and my retrospring was flooded with so much anger i considered closing it down😭 preferances to read and write is obviously okay but it really isn’t something that should be so serious for ppl. idk, what’s your thoughts on this?

I have strong preferences but they’re PREFERENCES and no one has a right to tell someone else how they should write a pairing. I’m so sorry you got an angry response to a wip. Those people can get fucked and go and write their own shit that suits what they want to read. You can write whatever you like!
If I don’t like something I don’t read it because that isn’t the author’s problem it’s MY problem
