Chapter 1: This story was lovely... thank you for posting it!
I think that even though there are several stories dealing with either Jonghyun or Key feeling insecure about themselves, none of them shows a scenario quite like this. Even when physical appereances are the focus of their struggle, it's rare for Key to gain weight in fics and for his canonical beauty to be somewhat "compromised". But life happens, things might get vexing, traumas are hard to cope with and our bodies change together with our mental health.
It's nice that you decided to explore this eventuality, to show that even though appearance matters to a certain degree (not only because that was the first thing that drew them together, but also because they are partially connected to our mental wellness too ) they are definitely not everything.
I appreciated the fact that, even though the ending was very sweet , it wasn't excessively cheesy or idealised.
It maybe wasn't an hyperrealistic depiction, but I don't think that was the goal of your story in the first place and it was overall enough realistic to create tension. The result was touching and it was something the reader could empathise to.
All in all I really appreciated this read and think you did a fairly good job on this fic! ; u ;
Have a good day and stay safe!
Chapter 1: Everyone needs an encouraging and lovely Jjongie in their life. I feel bad for Kibummie but in the end, just like Jjong said personality matters more. I love their banter and kiss, thank you for writing this. ^^
