Defining Normalcy

Description

"We have normality. I repeat, we have normality. Anything you still can't cope with is therefore your own problem."

-Douglas Adams

Zitao arrives in the small town of Yongcun when he's 17 and meets Wufan. While Wufan is convinced he's a monster, Zitao shows him that they're not that different...if only Wufan could accept he can be normal.

Foreword

I'm finally finished with this. I'm so happy, you don't even know ^^ I hope it turned out ok, even though it's not incredibly funny or fluffy (it's got a few moments, but nothing much, honestly)...but this took incredibly too long, so I'm just gonna put this out here anyway ^^;;

This is technically a oneshot, it's just split up into 3 parts so it doesn't look as long, I guess(?)...I wouldn't call it a threeshot, because each part just flows into the next by itself, it doesn't cut around or anything ^^

I'm saving the A/N info for the end instead of cramming it all right here like I usually end up doing >.>

So enjoy! Thanks for reading ^^ Love you all!! <3

(and to my ABC readers, wait for me! This hiatus will fly by, I promise~ I'll be back soon with more chapters!)

(Warning: I barely skimmed over this as a means of proofreading...I promise when I get back from my hiatus, I'll actually check over it thoroughly!)

Chapter 3: Ok.. So I just felt the ending was a little rushed. I am guessing that since this is supposed to be a one shot thus you opted for the least complicated way to wrap the story up. Nonetheless the characterizations are good, the dialogues are witty and there's a moral lesson to it! I wouldn't ask for more and I deliberately ignored the plot holes though I must agree XiuChen is awkward (that's coming from a non-shipper like me lol) but hey the appearance of Exo M is sweet! I like this fic to be very honest...

Chapter 2: Zitao's adorableness and Wufan's exasperation are a deadly combination. They're killing me with feels! Gaaaahhhh!

Chapter 3: Ah, the little fluff at the end was cute. ^^ I think the moral behind this whole thing is really good, and it's something that has bothered me for a whole. See, it's not like I've been ostracized for being who I am or anything, it's just... I know what society can do to people. They shape them, they mold them, and the hardest part for me is seeing the victim start to believe it as well. It hurts to know this, and I can't help but dispise society for this. Can't they just accept that differences are normally? That it's what makes life wonderful?
Meh. Enough of that. Thank you for a beautiful fic. :) Off to go stalk you some more~

Chapter 3: I love the story, the beginning is very interesting. Well, it feels like Twilight, sorry no offense. Because Kris was monster, and Tao is the only one who did not freak out about that matter. It is not what I thought it would be, but still it is interesting...

Aha, I was starting to wonder how Kris would come back since nothing seemed to indicate that and I was already on the last chapter! But this was good. Really reaaaaaaaaaally good. I liked it a lot! And you know that grin on your face and that happiness that makes you teary? Yeah. <3
Thanks for the awesome story! <3
