hi! i just read here by me and i loved it, it was so good and fun to read. ty for writing it. is it possible though to tag that there are throuples/poly relationships in the fic! ik it probably wasn't tagged as an element of surprise but i honestly wasn't expecting side ships since it wasnt tagged at all. it's okay if not but also would really appreciate it! have a great day :)
HI! it's me again. the hbm lover!! thank you for replying to my message <3 i'm so happy to hear you said ''never say never'' cause honestly if youd do it id be so happy! i just kinda needed to point them out so people won't sleep on them. they also stole my heart just like minsvng!! thank you for replying. you're the best. take care <3
EEEE HELLO AGAIN 🥰🥰 now that i know ur curious as to how it all happened with them, there are definitely some brainworms brainworming hehehehehe. I’ll try and get them to all wiggle into place and see where they take me 👀👀 all credit to u for waking them up!! thank u sm again for ur message ♥️
Hello grace. Thank u for organising your thread. I enjoyed reading through all your delicious wips. If you don't mind me asking, which ones will you focus on the most for now? I'm excited for all!
hello sweet anon!!! ahhh I’m so glad the threads worked, I’ve been meaning to make one for ageeees and yesterday I finally had the time to make it happen 🙌🙌 and I’ll be honest there were some wips I’ve posted that I’d almost forgotten about agakdlahqh
for now, I’m focusing on a new sorta angsty/hurt/comfort fic which I’m really hoping I can share soon (the most recent wip I posted). I also really, reeeeally wanna work on hn jsvng is completely rizzless hehehehe mostly because it’s so much fun to play with. but after my lil angst adventure, I’ll be focusing on slickfest before I get back to him (and I loooooove my prompt omlll I think u guys are gonna froth it too 😈) but yeah!! I’m finally getting back into the swing of writing so I’m v v excited to share some more with u soon. I hope u love them when I do!! and thank u so much for ur message!! ♥️
HI! i know it's been months but i just read Here by me. it's honestly so anazing, i don't really know what to say but AMAZING, all these emotions, growing, it's just... wow. i would also like to add that im such a fan of hyvnminin. i think it fits so well! <3 maybe you got something like that already but, do you think you could ever try to write their story? id be so invested! but its okay if not, its amazing either way! so, thank you so much for writing so good fics. please never stop (unless you need to take break of course, mental health is important!). thank you so much. it means a lot to me as a reader to feel such things and maybe try to learn about some stuff too :) <3
ahhhh oml thank u so much!!!!!! the hyvnminin was so, so much fun to play with in hbm i loved the idea of it all mostly happening off screen and mnho just getting little hints that something's up (many that he doesn't quite register hehehe). i haven't thought about writing them a little aside story but i wouldn't rule it out!! i've been having sm fun playing with different 5kz dynamics lately so i think it could potentially be a very fun soft sort of thing hehe. so never say never!! thank u sm for reading and for taking the time to drop by here and share ur thoughts with me. it really means the world <3 <3
CW: suic!de
Hi! I really adore your fics and your writing… thank you for sharing them with us 💕 was wondering if you have any recommendations for fics about any of the members dealing with suic!dal thoughts/feelings? Any rating, any pairing, but I’m looking for something that is WELL WRITTEN, emotional without being melodramatic. Hope this is ok to ask. thank you so much (and sorry if I shouldnt have asked this feel free to ignore if you’re not comfortable answering)
this is like maybe out of pocket to ask lmao but are you from the uk/aus? if not you sooo feel like it in your writing ! it’s cute
i just came here to tell you i just finished reading "here by me" and thank you so much for writing it, i love it so much! i honestly wish it didn't end cause i really enjoyed reading it a lot, it was so well written and everything i could have asked for, so thank you again for creating it. i'm looking forward to more of your works <3
ahhhh i'm so sorry to be replying to this so late!!!!!! thank u so so much for reading and for taking the time to swing by here and let me know!! it's one of the most satisfying fics i've ever planned out and written so i'm v v proud of her, and i'm desperately happy that u enjoyed reading her just as much!! ilyvm!!!!! <3 <3
hiii grace!!! what's been bouncing around in your Mind lately,,, any new situations to put the boys in... any wips you've started... any general brainworms???
aaaaa hi hiii sol!!!!!!!! oml SO MANY things have been bouncing around in my noggin, i'm honestly so so glad to be free from my essay so i can lock in more writing time eeeeee. i have a collection of wips ongoing rn but i think the ones i'll work on next are a chngjn interlude to the hazy days and a mnsvng princess bride au.
THEN, as for brainworms, i have a dark academia mnsvng fic cooking hehehehe the details are all just beginning to form in my head but i already know it's gonna be a loooong one hheheh so i hope everyone is keen for another big wip coming sooon. i also wanna try my hand at a lil more humourous sorta of fic (mnvng again) so we'll see which comes together first!!! <3
What piece of literature influenced your writing the most? What's your favourite fics? What's your favourite paragraph or sentence that you've written so far? ♡
omlllll this is such a good question!!!!!! i feel like my answer is gonna be all over the place, but i've wanted to be a writer since i was about 5 so there's a lot to get through hehehe.
my first ever fave, fave, fave book is the outsiders by se hinton so i think that really got me started on the sort of stories and relationships i like to focus on. when i studied writing at uni i found a real love for hemingway and virginia woolf and oscar wilde. i also fell absolutely in loooove with the secret history by donna tartt and that really set me on my pretentious literature student path. i've also been reading a lot of trent dalton lately so there's a teeny shout out for an author a lil closer to home <3
AND FAVOURITE FICS ugh agshdjfhgda where do i even beginnnn. again, i've been reading fic for that many years now it's probably impossible to list all my faves, but i'll give a couple of shout outs (across all my ride or die fandoms, i hope that's okay). for the 1d fandom, i lived and breathed anything written by vashtaneradas, in the mdzs world I could read anything by occultings (microcomets), jo_laselle, and etymologyplayground over and over again. i also still fuck with the les mis fandom so hard, so lemme shout out tellthemstories, samyazaz, lady_ragnell, and sarahyyy.
And for skz!!!! (which is probably why u asked the question to begin with, heh) i'm always revisiting anything by aire (mntsnflrs), taotu, and adisadastra. they all write so beautifully, i get caught up every tiiime, but we've got so many talented writers in the fandom it's so hard to pick just a few!!!
trying to pick out a fave paragraph and sentence i've written is super hard too aghsdjhg heheh because i feel like i forget everything i've written as soon as i hit that 'post' button on ao3. but i did some trawling and here are some excerpts i'm expecially proud of:
from splintering:
"The thing was. He’d been lying, it turns out, when he’d said he’d never expected Minho to do anything. He hadn’t known it at the time, he only really just figured it out now – but it turns out that a part of him had been hoping for far more than he knew.
Tucked away, deep in his chest, he’d thought Minho might smile at learning Jisung loved him. It was absurd, given everything, but a tiny part of him had thought – maybe. Maybe.
How silly."
-- :(((((( SAD. SO SAAD. I wrote that fic in like one slightly manic afternoon so i was expecting it to be very messy and haphazard, but even in spite of that, this teeny lil section makes my heart ache a little.
from hazy days hehehe:
Chan gives Minho a very stern look, then says again, “They won’t do it again. The kitchen is a sacred, hook up free, space. And the pool.”
“Uh,” Jisung says.
Minho smiles sweet, saccharine.
“You horny fucks,” Jeongin says.
Chan looks a little winded by this new discovery, but he perseveres. “Okay, starting now, the kitchen and the pool are – intimacy free. Does everyone understand?”
“Yes, dad,” Minho sighs.
--writing ot8 just being goofy as a gang was one of my fave parts of this fic (outside of the minsung ofc!!) just letting them be silly and relaxing in each others company UGH it makes me so soft I LOVE THEM SMMMM.
and from here by me:
It’s like the world falls into slow motion. The only things Minho can register are tiny things. The bob of Jisung’s throat as he tries to swallow. The confusion that clouds his eyes – or fuck, his eye, because he can really only open the one -- which almost floats around the room, as if he’s seeing none of it at all.
Then they return to Minho.
He blinks, slow and heavy.
Once.
Twice.
Then he says, his voice barely anything, barely a whisper, almost drowned out by the machines around him, “Hyung. You’re here.”
-- WEEEH that's the scene that started the entire idea for hbm so it's very special to meeee.
ANYWAY YEAH sorry this answer is kinda huge, and sorry i wandered around with ur questions a lil hehe. THANK U FOR THEM THO hehehehe <3
if you could only read one fic for the rest of your life what would it be?
ooooh oml this is such a good question i want to give u a list but i feel like that might diminish the point of the question aaaa i'd say the fic i revisit the most is 'baby, we're like a timebomb' by yxxnjing. omllll the ot8 dynamics are just my fave, fave ever, and the way that ot8 interacts with mnsvng and UGHHH i just never get sick of reading it over and over again. (and to cheat a little hehehe, my runner up is the fosw series by aire, hf it's so so so good!!!! and we just got a fresh installment!!! so spoiled!!!)
i just finished here by me (i kept putting off finishing it after the first chapter because life was being mean to me) but holy shit it's so good. it's going to live in my brain forever. the way you convey emotion is just so absolutely spot on accurate and so real and human. i didn't have to guess at what anyone was feeling at any point because i was feeling it right with them. and the little mention of the ticket that crumples when he reaches for cash to pay the cab driver in the first chapter that turns out to be the concert ticket in the last chapter ended me. the scene in the very first chapter where mnh gets the call and the one where they finally give in and kiss for the first time definitely stand out as favourites for me. thank you so much for writing this masterpiece, it will absolutely be living in my heart forever and ever.
aaaaahhh anon ilysm <3 <3 <3 <3 reading this was like getting a really cosy, warm hug. thank u so much for reading and for enjoying the story so much!! i'm so glad the emotion of it all resonated with u and that u liked all those little moments. and thank u sm for taking the time to let me know aaaa i feel like i'll be reading and rereading ur message for a v long time to come <3
Haii! I loved "here by me" it's so amazing, genuinely one of the best I've read <3<3 I was wondering how the hospital was able to reach minho and how Minho said his number hasn't been changed since jisung blocked it when it was mentioned that his phone broke and he had to start over that's why he didn't have chan or changbins number?💃🕺
HII eeeeee thank u sm 🥹🥹🥹🥹 i'm so glad u liked it so much!! i feel like a have a vague memory of writing something to get around this issue in chapter one maybe? ?? ? ? ? or even ch 2 potentially aghsjdfhg? ? (i hope i did!!!) i think my basic thinking was that mnho broke his phone and killed his sim but they were able to let him keep the number or something aghdghsh potentially not very based in reality but ahhhh. how good is movie magic.... true love prevails!!!
