It is me, jakarta reader! once again u have written an amazingg story!! It all wraps up so so sooo well in the end...all of the questions tied up very nicely :)
It was a journey, reading it, I feel relieved at the end, just like Jungkook does...
While reading it, some parts left me confused, some parts makes me feel joy, some parts makes me feel like I am angry at Jungkook, some parts let us peek at what Yoongi is going through beneath it all. You, Lera, had written a story not just for us to read, you bring us through their journey together....
I realised that what I feel during and after reading JOY is like Jungkook, Yoongi, and the game crew, and all of the character in processing grief and just living <3
I hope this message finds you and brings you a little comfort and makes you feel joy just like you did to me with your writing (though i am no author like you hehehe)....I hope you too, deal with your grief kindly, especially to yourself, Lera
Thank you for writing this story. Here is one of my favorite line from JOY! "And it is kind of nice to be able to exist multidimensionally with someone in this lifetime"
I hope we can find our JOY!Yoongi just like JOY!Jungkook did in this lifetime!! Cheers, until next time ;))
helloooooo it’s so nice hearing from you!!!! i’m so glad i managed to tie up it all nicely, i was honestly worried about it HAHA the big reveal has always been meant to be there, but all the loose threads of the side plots… oh it was a challenge fr!
thank you so much for all of your kind words, today and always 🫶 if i managed to do all of that, then ive succeeded! when i just started writing the story, i wanted the game office and people inside just to feel as real as possible, like that one liminal space you want to come back to again and again; people you want to gossip together with, take coffee breaks with, work with. that’s been the entire goal all this time.
and don’t worry! your messages always bring me joy one way or another 🩵 i wish i could say i was healed through writing this story—sadly, my newfound grief is so recent, joy! - that i started writing before he passed away - only became an initial distraction, a world that could be perfectable, a world i had control over at the most turbulent time. harder times are coming, but i have people around me who hold me together & taking an escape in my own worlds always helps, too. (Sorry Didn’t Mean To Get So Personal but Alas)
seems like a lot of people have taken a liking in this specific like. hehehe
thank you so much!!! i definitely wish everyone their own joy yoongi to find them that’s a good person to have near you🥹
thank you! stay healthy and happy—until next time:) 🩵
