Chapter 69: Holy Guacamole I am SHOOK! I was expecting a plot twist from you, but THIS?! I’m gonna need a few minutes to process all of this!!!
Tl;dr You’re a freaking genius bro
Chapter 68: beautiful descriptions of the banquet's ambience!!
as always, thanks for making time to write this, even with work and real life and stuff haha. this story's the only reason I still check aff after all these years heh
Chapter 68: okay you know ing what I'll just die. that's fine it's totally fine I'm so glad I forced myself to do my homework before reading this because I would not have been able to think otherwise!
(also I forgot to say in my last comment happy new year! hope this one goes marginally better for us all despite what's already happened ha)
Chapter 67: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! i’m so happy that i got to read ur update this early in 2021! annndddd Tae must be furious at how he forgot Lucy:( I would too. and Joo actually afraid that Tae could hate her...gurl u love him so much. also, DANGGGGG Jimin and Lucy. i knew they had a thing tbh, but actually ‘seeing’ them in the situation kinda shocked me lol in here, Tom is a friend goalsT.T so jealous and imma start looking for friends like him. tho this chappie kinda short but i love how things are going into places, AND pshhhhh I knew Hado isnt a saint. the Captain is kinda fishy since the beginning and I know something big is happening.
4 YEARS?!! damnnn i just been here for a lil while and i didnt notice the date. you worked hardT.T thankyou for coming back from ur hiatus and put soooo much effort into writing and updating for us. must’ve been hard to make time since u also have a job. i wish nothing but the best onwards for u and lets all enjoy 2021 which hopefully be better than 2020;)
Chapter 67: Taehyung finally joins the fray... now he's gonna have to risk his life just like the rest of them! Conveniently BTS's rap line are the only ones clueless now LOL idk if you did that by accident or on purpose but that's a funny coincidence.
I really wonder what Taehyung thought Joo was doing this whole time, because like at first I was thinking "hot damn he is reacting a whole lot more violently and angrily than I expected" but then I remembered he doesn't really know what's going on, other than Lucy is murdering people and Joo keeps coming home on the brink of death.
The whole Jimin and Lucy thing like DAMN they moved fast, I thought Lucy would still be conked out cold from the whole fight. It said Jimin was shirtless and I was like "holy are they ing again" but Lucy doesn't seem like she's in the proper state of mind (or body?) to do that. "The scene would be lovingly domestic if it weren't so appalling" LOL I feel like that is how most of Lucy and Jimin's relationship can be described. Everyone's just going to be watching them from the side like 'so are we gonna pretend that whole thing between junior year and graduation didn't happen?'
ALSO personally I think it's kind of hilarious that Jimin says "What could possibly be worse than you two seeing that" as if Joo doesn't already know Jimin still cares for Lucy like that (and we as readers probably all know too). Jimin you're not slick man... and then enter Taehyung and his cold realization that yes, it could honestly be a whole lot worse LMFAO.
I wonder if Jimin's even going to have friends after this whole situation??? Most people still don't know about Lucy but like, everyone who finds out is so horrified about what he did, I really wonder. It doesn't even seem like he really values their friendship anymore because of like prior scenes where he was talking (rightfully) about them doing molly at a carnival for kids... his relationships are all so complicated man all for his JVC position too... crazy...
THE PLOT THICKENS??? Hado supplied Lucy the uppers... crazy... I mean not that crazy if we're being honest, because I'm sure Hado wanted to bring the Kado down since they're opposite/rival organizations anyways. I always thought it was kind of weird that in the initial Hado vs. Kado explanation, Kado was explained to be just bad/evil while Hado was supposed to be the good guys. I feel like most times organizations and their intent are more complex than that. I don't exactly remember who gave them the explanation, but if it was Tom, then that honestly would make sense because he's in the Hado and that's probably what they were going for? Just kind of brainwashing members into believing they're the good guys. I wouldn't be surprised if Kado did the same thing. Because honestly if their reputations were just "good" and "evil" I'm not really sure Kado would have that many members...? If Hado has some secret agenda and were just using Lucy to achieve world domination or something, I wouldn't even be surprised.
I was gonna comment this a lot earlier but then I started doom scrolling through news, and... yea... BUT as always I loved the chapter and I can't wait to read more!!
Chapter 67: happy new year!!! omfg icb its been 4 years since you started this story??? WOW?? THANK YOU FOR NOT GIVING UP ON THIS STORY?? FOR GIVING ME A REASON TO COME BACK TO AFF???(excuse my question marks) i hope this new year brings you lots and lots of happiness and good merit!! dont push yourself too hard and take breaks in between bb :(( !! and pls have hearty meals and stay hydrated!! ily <33 this chapter was wholesome-y bittersweet, im back to shipping lucy and jimin :'))))))
Chapter 66: Oh my god!! As usual, these past updates were amazing... the way you wrote the fight!! The raw terror everyone was feeling, her introspection and how chilling it made everything feel... in my head it felt like I was watching the scene in slow motion and in silence, like you know those really dramatic and heartwrenching movie scenes where it's silent and slow-mo but you see the explosions and the characters screaming in anguish and getting injured and stuff? I hope I don't sound insane right now because typing that all out made me feel a little insane.
Taehyung's dad is terrifying! It's so interesting to me how he's so powerless against his father while having such a confident (arrogant almost?) personality in front of everyone else. It sounds like there is a lot to unpack in terms of that relationship. Having his dad be the most powerful sorcerer in the Kado while instead it was Jimin who's the most powerful "youth" sorcerer probably left Taehyung's dad feeling like Taehyung was a disappointment. I'm just theorizing on that point, but of course if that's not what happens I'd be interested to see how their relationship got to this point after everything.
All the quiet Joo and Taehyung moments in between the chaos are sooo sweet and soft. There's something so good about just... how they both so obviously care for each other but they can't do anything about it because of circumstance and how they're both not in a good place mentally to be together. But they're still occasionally soft and vulnerable around each other because it just slips out... It's about the YEARNING!!!! I just love them a lot ,,,
I feel like I say this a lot but like Lucy and Jimin's relationship is SO interesting. They honestly feel a billion times more complicated and toxic than Joo and Taehyung. Like you know how there are some love-hate relationships that are just mildly enough hate that it's spicy and supportable while others actually make you think yikes... go to therapy... Jimin and Lucy border on the second for me but I'm really invested in seeing how they'll work it out. After they both go to therapy, ofc. I wouldn't trust them in a room together before the therapy... like I guess especially Jimin, it's kind of crazy to me how he seems a little psychopathic, the way he's both willing to potentially kill someone he's known his whole life to make his plans work out but at the same time, he's going through with this insane plan just to save Lucy instead of killing her which would probably help him much more with his JVC position and everything.
I definitely commented on the events all out of order, but I read these updates a while ago. I just got so caught up in exams and moving out and stuff that I couldn't sit down to write this till now! I'm super excited to see where this leads!! Taehyung being able to pick up on Joo's lies is interesting, and I'm pretty sure he and Tom aren't actually gonna duke it out super insanely the way Jimin and Lucy did (I don't think they could physically manage that, even if they wanted to). Taehyung's probably just trying to see what's going on, and while it would be interesting to see him in on Joo and the gang's plans, it would also be strange to see them all suddenly trust him. Especially because he doesn't have his memories and he's been in the dark for the past several years. Excited to hear more!!
Merry belated Christmas!
(Also. I guess I'm so used to talking to you on this site that sending a DM feels weird? But would it be weird if I mayhaps sent a DM on ig?)
Chapter 66: oh my God here we go! finally some air time for Tae and i’m expecting more! lol. thankyou for giving Tae more time here. and i’m sooooo excited what will happen. like, Joo lied the last time Tae asked her, bit i figure he kinda caught that. I cant wait for more, i’ll be looking forward for new chappies. hwaiting!^^
