Description

On Saturday night, he goes to bed as Do Kyungsoo, main vocalist of sensational music group EXO. On Sunday morning, he wakes up the only sane man in the world. At least, that’s what Kyungsoo can't help but believe when a bloody idol war of epic proportions suddenly erupts over whose fans are the best. Features multifandom references, an otter named Neem, and keyboard warriors who hurl computer keyboards with the force of ten thousand throwing stars.

Foreword

Disclaimer #1: This story includes references to a lot of other fandoms (some music, some literary). I do not own any of these other works; all credit goes to original authors and creators.

Disclaimer #2: There is indeed an otter named Neem in this story, but please do not call me author-nim, otter-nim, or even otter-neem. Nana will do just fine, thank you :)

 

*If you’re confused by the poster and why Choo-Chooyeol is there, it’s really a monstrous creation by my love, imrapunzel, for another fic of mine (Of Labs and Love Songs). I… don’t really have a good excuse for putting it here. Oh well.

** Thank you to bluelixir for sending the page break image!

Chapter 14: Oof, my heart shed a few tears when Kyungsoo did, poor kid. :') And oh my god, I'm DED at "UPDATE DISCOGRAPHY SOON" HAHAHA. Imagine if people spammed that word-for-word on idols' social media accounts, LOOOOL. And I love Sehun being an immature child, hehe. Definitely feeling him on a spiritual level right now. ^^; BUT YAAAY, THEY'RE SO CLOSE!! I'M ROOTING FOR YOU, KYUNGSOO!! YOUR NAP IS NEAR!!

Chapter 14: I honestly feel like Kyungsoo now. I need a nap, but things don’t work out for me to have that when I need or want it. I empathize with him :(

HAHA. I was wondering when the infamous “Update soon!” will appear in this story. And it’s pretty cool how you made a small connection between that and fans wanting more content from their favorite artists. This chapter definitely reminded me of some fandoms sending demands to their favorite artists’ companies, demanding them to “treat their artists better” and give them more promotions.

Thanks for this chapter! This was a nice read before bedtime! I hope you’re doing well! :)

Chapter 13: This is as wonderful as the other chapters! I have no idea how you manage to keep up this level of insanity while using completely realistic concepts and terms, but I greatly appreciate your doing so. Thanks for the update, and I hope you're keeping well.
Poor Kyungsoo. A nap evades him yet again.

Chapter 13: As a bio major, I absolutely love Yixing's apoptosis song and him suddenly being in a tree to get inspiration for *Bleep*struck was amazing. :') He continues to solidify himself as my favorite character in WotW. ^^ What a precious, powerful boy, HAHA. At this point, maybe Kyungsoo is better off just asking Yixing for a sleep-inducing lullaby. XD

Chapter 13: I’M DEAD FROM YOUR SONG PARODY. The fact that I sang it in the right rhythm made it even more memorable. LMAO

And I’m still traumatized by physics and cell biology. *Shudders* The horror I went through for those subjects

Chapter 12: Oh my gosh, as a huge Potterhead, this is my favorite chapter yet!! XD I would totally read an AU with Harry Otter as the main character, LOLOLOL. I also love how the boys are portraits in the castle and I can totally see Chanyeol being Sir Cadogan, HAHA. Even as a portrait, Minseok is still obsessed with his cleaning and Kyungsoo still can't catch a break. ^^; I think I'd try to knock myself out if I were him at this point, since he's got D-rank luck. :')

Chapter 11: Ahhh, wasn't expecting updates from this, so I'm very pleasantly surprised to see some new chapters!! :D Man, I've missed the crazy shenanigans in this wonderfully insane world and your references, as always, are so much fun!! XD It seems like poor Kyungsoo will never get to Big Bang's dorm, but it's all about the journey, not the destination. :') At the very least, there's only one sasaeng left. If there were more like her still around, I don't think the world would be able to handle that much unbridled chaotic energy. OTL

Chapter 11: This was a nice read after a chaotic day at work! (I am still feeling dead, and I have to report to another place later today TT_TT) My God, that sasaeng is a nightmare. I too would be worried if she was the only fan left on the planet O_O I love the references to second-generation K-pop groups! It's been a while since the last time I read something about them :D

As for Minseok and his vast knowledge of cleaning supplies, I'm guessing he's aware of Space Bags. (SOMEONE GET MINSEOK AN ENDORSEMENT FROM THEM. LOL)

Hope you're doing well, Nana! I'm still working and staying indoors is slowly draining my energy to get things done. And that won't be ending anytime soon :'(
