you trace the stars in the darkness
Description
They search for each other, an adagio through different lives and deaths, circling in a slow dance before they finally find each other again.
Foreword
I: You trace the Stars in the darkness:
Joohyun and Seulgi through the millennium: lost words and lost souls that attempt to become whole once more.
=====
A/N:
Hi all!
This is also a little bit different from what I've done previously so let me know what you think / let me know what references you could find!
The obvious ones?
- Black Mirror (San Junipero episode; Season 3 Episode 4) - TV Series
- Greek myths, bastardised as they are.
- Charon, the River Styx, the River Lethe
- Fate?
- Songs.
Did y'all play console games growing up? Eat pringles? Let me know (here or @goldfinchex on Twitter!)
II: sing me to sleep
This was an expansion of I, "you trace the stars in the darkness", and my working document called it "Cookie Expansion".
"Is this love? Is this what it feels like? This unknown contentment. This sense of calm."
Joohyun and Seulgi spend a day playing Pokemon. Doing laundry. Lounging in bed. Or counting the stars.
A Last Day on Earth-esque fic.
(title ripped from: sing me to sleep - alan walker)

As noted in the feed.
An A/N: I suppose part of expanding on this verse was also to cement the idea that I sort of idealize an idea of having no apologies/no regrets between two people who love each other? You’ve made a decision, and you stick with it. A sacrifice is a sacrifice, but there is some sort of choice when you pursue love/people/relationships and there shouldn’t be regrets. (even if something ends badly, you choose to stick with it and end it // there is always something gained and lost in everything.) There are good things, there are bad things.
I am also aware that a summer moon doesn’t lead to calmer tides lmao Google was very helpful about this HAHAHA.
I tried to make II a mix of lighthearted silliness, but with a few feels slapped into this expansion!
Let me know what you think here or on my twitter (@goldfinchex!)
