hwa… oh gosh this is absolutely so gorgeous and ur a little insane to me (ur mind, i love it, and all the pretty words gathered inside). i think soonwoo was the perfect vessel for this piece, the way that soonyoung serves as this striking counterpart to wonwoo, someone who is shining and so ever bright and a little bit out of reach in wonwoo’s mind, because he seems to be everything that wonwoo cannot be.
this was so wonderful and felt so carefully fleshed out in so little words!!!! ur prose n all the little canonical details <333 ugh so good

here are some tidbits i liked:
- “Bugs was a perfect answer Seokmin. A lot of people are afraid of bugs. Especially bugs with a lot of legs.” Jeonghan replies, one hand already offering a placating pat, “Mingyu’s being weird again.”

“No. I also should have said something profound and deep. Now I seem like an idiot.” Seokmin slaps his own cheeks, “The transience of life. The inevitability of my own mortality. Being forgotten by my own mother.” i chuckled… oh seokmin!!!!! you are valid!!!!!!! i love that interview so much sometimes svt are just some dudes - He could imagine it, Soonyoung running up the stairs to the school roof, confession bursting out like a ripe plum, before turning back and running back down, possibilities left behind him. this whole scene tbh!!!!! it was just so joyously soonyoung, how he puts his entire being into things & thinks later, while wonwoo is too heavily focused on cause/effects and stuck in his head to be doing anything (i particularly liked the line about how jww would only confess if he could be sure, so that he’d know his place in the world. it was a wonderful way to put it)
- just the image of soonyoung being ^^ and wonwoo being like, aren’t you scared & soonyoung (in return) not making fun of him for not being able to do it too, but kind of just carrying on his way, as if to say, you can do it too wonwoo… its a kindness and an act of love in itself i think T__T
