what you gave me
"i won't forget you and the end of summer, dreaming of the future, our big hopes"
 
( description ) : it was only one summer - the summer we all were seven. do you remember all the fun we had in the clubhouse in my backyard? and all the adventures we had, the six of us all together? you can be anything you can imagine when you're that young. one day we'd be pirates, the next we'd be explorers, or royalty, or robots, or elves. we didn't have secrets, not like we do now, but we told each other everything anyway. then you all started leaving one by one as august rolled around. the fireworks were the last time we were all together.

i'll be honest - i never expected to see any of you again, let alone be in the same homeroom class as you all. it really has been ten years and you all have changed. ...so have i. but we still have that summer and i still have my clubhouse in my backyard, even though most of the paint is gone now. they still have fireworks here, but it was never the same without you all. and even though we all ended up changing, maybe we can all be friends now that we're older - now that we have more than one summer.

the rules
"i believe we'll meet in august again, ten years from now."
 
( 001 ) : yo, man, subscribing is cool. i'm pretty sure that's a thing you're supposed to do when you apply for stuff.
( 002 ) : also you know what else is cool? being nice. so be nice. even though i doubt you'd be actively mean to each other. 
( 003 ) : the plotlines and cheatsheet pages are really important, so do read them all properly. all plotlines are gender-neutral and stuff. also the password is in the cheatsheet, yo, so it's in your best interest to read all of it!
( 004 ) : but the big rule. have fun creating your character, okay? i had fun making mine and i have a feeling i'll have a lot of fun with this whole fic. i hope you do too. it's my first real rodeo but i'll do my best.
author's note
( laura ) : i'm like hey what's up hello. no i'm not. hey, my name's laura and i'm venturing into the world of applyfics - for real, this time. this fic is heavily inspired by the song "secret base ~kimi ga kureta mono~" by zone - there's also the cover version used as the ending to anohana (aka crying a lot: the anime). so uh you should check out that song and the translation and stuff, and you should check out this story if you like broken kids and angst because seriously, read the plotlines, all these poor kids are woobies who need huge hugs. /besidesthepoint. anyways, uh, i hope you give this story lots of support(?) and i'm hoping for lots of apps and stuff, so...please...apply? does that sound too desperate? probably. anyways, um, see you on the flippity flop i guess!

its so unique and fresh and- why else do you think youre getting so many comments praising it and you?

Chapter 9: I SIGNED IN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DAYS (i h8 school tbh lmao) AND I SEE THIS AND MY DAY FEELS GOOD AGAIN
ugh, i feel so bad for haewon whenever i read this, which shows what an amazing author you are. i really emphasize with his mom as well, because she's just so loving and caring yet there's nothing she can really do to protect him except show her support. ; o ;
i love haewon's journal entries as well, because they strike right through my heart? it's the right mix of emotional and angst without making it overtly cliche so props to you omg
i've said it before and i'll say it again, you're really one of the best authors on aff !!! i'm literally not saying this to be nice but i mean every word !!
AND I'M SUPER EXCITED FOR THE STORY TO START, GOOD LUCK TO YOU, LOVE, I'M SURE YOU'LL DO GREAT! < 3

Chapter 9: I'm actually sad that most of us put that our characters would avoid everyone, because this is the direct result... But hey, everyone's gotta deal with their , so hang in there, Haewon! This whole "It's not you, it's me" kind of thing may take some head-bashing to overcome... Otherwise, your writing is superb! The journal writing stabs me in the gut because it's where he puts all of his emotions and it's all very stream-of-conscience. Soon, it is only a matter of time... I'm so glad that you're keeping up with the story and I wish you all the best in anticipation!

Chapter 9: buddy this teaser
can haewon please let me live? he's killing me everytime i hear from him like why is he so precious. this teaser was just perfect i believe to be the last teaser before the whole story begins and i'm seriously so excited for this to kick off you have no idea
this is so cool that this is a writing project for you and hopefully you find the cast that you desire for it. i promise you that my comments are not just to flatter you. you have the most wonderful style, some of the best i've seen in a long while. and you're only going to keep improving throughout this whole process.
ah seriously i don't even know how i'm typing. i'm near to bursting with anticipation!
(also, that line of screaming in the journal. lmao i do that a lot as well when i write)

Chapter 9: OHMYGOD I AM SHAKING
why does haewon have to be so precious, i can't- AAAHHHHHHH
IT JUST- WOW, I CAN'T KEEP MY CHILL. how can i make a proper comment if i can't keep my chill?
yo, but seriously, i was reading this as if like it was a book. i was covering the rest of the chapter with my hand because i didn't want to spoil myself. lol wtf i'm so weird.
these letters physically hurt me. his wishful thinking is just so- ;n; please keep hoping, haewon.
awh man, christmas came early.
