Chapter 1: I cried omg this fic is really good I just really want to hold zitao poor baby what has he gone through. I just knew I just knew zitao would go soft, he was always just waiting for the opportunity to be soft but it never came until sehun. For a moment after sehun read the letter I thought zitao killed himself TT luckily he didn't thank God! I'm quite curious what did zitao write in his message

Thank you for the story it is really beautiful.

Chapter 1: i always cry when i reread this. It's a fic I just have so much respect for? I hadn't noticed it the first time but... 'Of course, a dark part of him whispered ‘What’s wrong with that?’, wanting to bottle all of the Tao’s love for himself - because who wouldn’t want to hoard it like the gold it was?' It hit me the second i read the word bottle that Sehun had become Tao's new favourite brand of alcohol. The symbolism and the way you show the techniques of their respective art through small actions... this fic just always comes to mind when I think 'peanutbutter smooth' and written by a genius. I'M BEING A RAMBLING NERD ANYWAY thank u for existing i don't even hardcore ship taohun but this is undeniably one of my fave pieces of fanfiction of all time.

Chapter 1: Wow really wow am sooooo impressed . You made me cryyyyyyy T.T at what exactly I don't know , was it the storyline or the way you write or the fact that I felt every emotion Tao and sehun felt . GOD THAT WAS GOOD . I especially liked the last fashion show, it was just beautiful .ALL of it , the way you described it and how you picture it and the letter , every little thing was insanely BEAUTIFUL. Oh and how you ended it " perfection" .Your story is quite different in a good way really and I just fill in love with it . Great work and please if you have any new stories tell me because you are an amazing author . Thank you and please keep up the great work . Much much love ❤️
