Description

"When you wake up, he'll be dead." Minho held my hand and for a moment I was almost sorry. Almost. Yet this war had to end and he needed to die. I needed to live.

Chapter 1: I did not see this happening. Really didn't!
You really got everyone on the wrong track, which makes this lovely!
Honestly, this was very short, but nice to read.
And I smiled at the ending.
No, really, this was great!

Chapter 2: Ah pretty pretty Minjunggie.

You had a lot of cleverness hidden in there. I loved. And I particularly liked how Bum was actually drawn to a part of Minho no one else was seeing floating at the surface. Where people were more friendly and accepting of Minho, Bum was "losing" himself because the Min he was in love with disappeared in public settings. And when he started to take the medication, Kibum regained his confidence and decided to take it a step farther by moving away to a place no one knew Minho, and everyone would just be introduced to Minjung. het!MinKey at its best.

The clothing part was heartbreaking.

(And now I should quit writing that transgender OnHo for you, cause I could never do it this sort of justice.)

Chapter 1: Finally i got a moment to comment this. I read this forever ago, but somehow didn't stop to comment.
And i really liked this! I got the idea somehow right from the start and it kind of surprised me. And that's good :) Even though it's really short it didn't feel like it. I mean there was a lot of stuff put in a small amount of words.. Okay i'm not sure if this is sounding like it should xD and it was a nice change to see Minho was presented like that. He's always such manly man. My favorite part was "for a moment i was almost sorry." I'm not really sure why. It felt a little like when you win finally something against your friends or something like that... In a way i wished it would've been longer, like i could've read this for chapter after chapter and get more into things. But i know there wasn't really time. Good job anyway :)

Chapter 2: Wow. This was not what I was expecting (a good thing). I'll be thinking of this for awhile, and rereading it a few more times. Very well done. Thank you for writing this.

I'll be in touch.

Chapter 1: (sorry accidentally posted that comment before I was done with it!) Anyway, it was actually quite surprising that kibum was attracted to the female side of minho, most stories portray him as an androgynous, flamboyant guy, so it really struck me when I realised that it wasn't the case in this story.

Chapter 1: This is really an interesting story heh I liked it! But there's one thing I'm confused about. Why did kibum feel like he was disappearing? And

Chapter 2: Reading this in a hotel with crappy wifi- I must say that I'm feeling very proud... I saw what you were doing right from the start!!! Well done my dear!!! I think I only guessed it cause I read a story of a transgender Minho before and that picture crept into my mind while you were cryptically describing min... I also think it's a very interesting take on the death and rebirth themes! Very well done!!!

Chapter 1: I finally had the time to read this: It's reeeeeally good.
I was afraid to go to the next chapter in case I didn't understand the whole story but I did!
Great work, as always :)

Okay, I liked this a lot! I liked the whole thing about Minho and Min this was amazing! And the fact that he wanted to be Minjung was a good plot twist. If I get it right Min is a transgender right? Minho was his male body but inside he was Minjung all the time. Really liked! Congrats!
