Like A Bolt Out of the Blue

Description

Joonmyun thinks he'll be alone forever. His grandfather ensures that it isn't so.

 

Foreword

Little puppet made of pine, awake. The gift of life is thine.

***

Joonmyun could easily list all the problems of his life. The only person who ever cared about him is dead. His family thinks he's destined for mediocrity and have no expectations of him. Even though he's the son of his important figurehead father, no one really cares about him, only his brother. He's blessed with a lavish life in high society, but money can't buy the things he really wants. And he feels terribly lonely.

Unbeknownst to him, his grandfather left him his entire estate, as well as a promise to him and eleven others.

Chapter 7: First comment ever on aff! Just wanted to say that this story is very well written and I'm curious to see how Joonmyeon's relationship with everyone (especially luhan and jongdae) blossoms.

Chapter 9: i love how the story's progressing and it keeps me wanting more! excited for suchen to develop....for jongdae to see joonmyun when he looks at him and not woosung. although i'm sure jongdae can feel the difference between the two men....can't wait for him to really fall...it's really amazing when that happens...to fall in love with the same face but a different person.

Chapter 7: Chapter 7 & 8 omg. ;A; Okay, first off, ughGHh THE SUCHEN MOMENTS. THEY BOTH MADE MY HEART HAPPY AND ALSO KINDA SORTA CRUSHED IT TO PIECES AT THE SAME TIME. I mean, there's no denying that some part of Jongdae likes Joonmyun because he reminds him of his grandfather, but certainly Jongdae also like Joonmyun for Joonmyun... but still. ;A; (Kinda reminds me of how someone might date someone that reminds them of their ex...) /sobs.
So happy that Joonmyun is slowly making progress towards his career! He's still got a ways to go in terms of letting go of past burdens, I think, but nonetheless progress is progress! So proud of our Joonmyunny. /sniffles.
AWW, THE SCENE WITH MAKNAE LINE THOUGH. The way how Joonmyun's annoyed with them but in the end still enjoys their company.. deep deep down, hehe. I like how even though everyone is still grieving over Woosung's death, they're trying to find ways to cope and involve Joonmyun in things and even if they don't realize it they're trying to find ways to differentiate Joonmyun and Woosung by spending time with Joonmyun?? That's how I took it, heh.

Loved the updates, and good luck with your apps and general college stuff! (If I could make it into a UC, you can too!!) Fighting, author-nim!

Chapter 7: i have always been intrigued at why minseok seems to be concerned about jongdae being close to joonmyun and now i think i'm slowly getting why and it involves something about jongdae and joonmyun's grandfather. i'm excited to find out more...omg! suchen feels are developing!! and kai, he does seem to be a tsundere little brother. also curious about luhan and sad that joonmyun find's it hard to get through to him.

Chapter 6: THIS CHAPTER. MY HEART. Luhan and the flowers... the poor dear. I hope that he and Joony will be able to meet a middle ground or reconciliation of some sort. Seeing Luhan silently suffer like that is so sad. ;; (Flower symbolism expert Jongdae makes me secretly really happy inside, btw.) Oh my god, the exchange with Joony, Baek, Chanyeol, and Wufan though... ;; That lack of freedom is just.... IT'S JUST SO sAD I CAN'T ExPLAIN IT ANY OTHER WaY. It's just the idea that they're *practically* human with the way they look, act, and feel, and yet with all of that they don't get some of the most wonderful joys of being human. SO. SAD. BUT ON A HAPPIER NOTE, aww maknae line with the kitty though, hehe. (Seems appropriate since Tao actually just got a new puppy! ^^) Also, yeeees on the character development that Sehun brought up with the whole differentiating Joonmyun from his grandfather. As they get to know Joonmyun more, the more they start to see the differences. Very nice, hehe. Thanks for the update!! <3

Also here are some typos I noticed:
He** remembers that when his grandfather died, the entire mansion seemed to be covered in white.
He** flushes red at his mistake.
