iridescence; or the perpetuity of triumphant failures in life

Description

When the sky is a fading purple, the sun is reluctant to leave its hues and time is far out of her grasp, Irene realizes her life is not as perfect as she envisions it to be. 

Or, Bae Joohyun is a struggling adult who's lost hope in her dreams and worse—herself; and Kang Seulgi may or may not be the one who brings the sky and the stars just a bit closer to the ground for her.

Foreword

Theme - Tchaikovsky - Pas de Deux

This is the first multishot that I will actively be writing, so in all honesty, I'm high-key hyped to publish it!

It's not a necessity to listen to the themes of each chapter, but I recommend it because it gives heightened reading pleasure? I don't really know, I just want to recommend music that match the aesthetics of the story, so if you're willing, please give the music a chance~

Author's Thoughts

I have nothing to say but the most cliche excuse in the world—life got in the way, or more specifically: education did. Ergo, this chapter is a whole eight months late. Regardless, this chapter dropped some major hints for the future; so read between the lines while you're jamming out~

Chapter 1: HELLO im sorry for the late comment! i cant read the next chapter until i've commented on the first so im hereee
you already know this but i LOVE the formatting and the themes for each chapter, everything about this fic is aesthetic i was in love before any chapters were even posted...
the first chapter was perfect in how it gave us insight into irene's life and relationships without having to explicitly state everything, and the theme song was so nice! it suited the chapter setting + irenes mood well, like i Felt that (im not too sure what 'that' is but i felt it) also i have to admit my 1 braincell had to think about the title of the fic for a while and google search some words to understand it :~) but also the title and chapter titles are so pretty, the motifs throughout the chapter with the sky (and irene's love for it) and time passing/moments are so niceee then it was a perfect ending for the chapter with [rest] after the tiring day and the last sentence was just aaaaa <3 it left me in such a nice calm(?) mood and i really enjoyed reading it!! the story (so far) is so beautifully simple and realistic but you can already tell it has so many deeper ideas and meanings that will probably be more evident later? so i can't wait to see more :))
