Futile Devices

Description

Hear blissful words, see heaven on earth, taste honey through crimson brims — Sana feels all that in Switzerland. 

Foreword

Before anything else, please visit this Black Lives Matter carrd in light of the movement. Educate yourself, raise awareness, sign petitions, and donate if possible. If protesting, please stay safe, okay? 

 

///

 

Highly inspired by the movie Call me by your name and the song Futile Devices by Sufjan Stevens.

Was planning to publish this as a one-shot, but I wrote past 20,000 words and that's just overwhelming lol. I don't live in Switzerland, just wrote according to footages I found on youtube and info I read on the internet. 

Hope you enjoy!

Chapter 2: Wow. Your unique style really fascinates me! I wonder how you developed it, because it is very poetic!

I particularly melted at the part where Dahyun was very protective of Sana. Kissing her shoulder and covering her parka? Boy, what a moment :')

Chapter 2: To read until time passes by. My joints ached. This was so comforting but it did not let me feel too comfortable. I crave the next sentence and the next. There is this kind of fear that I despised, the one that you have no choice but to face that nothing can distract you from it. Calm Is setting of the story but that fear washed over me with each day they spent together. It’s like a reminder of how days is meant to go by. Of life that is. You made us fall in love with the place, the characters and their time. To kiss underwater and then rise above the waters to breathe. Captivated and terrified. Very grateful for sharing this gem. Time to learn baking. ;)

Chapter 1: I got goosebumps. I'm not even kidding. The dialogues seem so intricate but are surprisingly very light. I'm in love with the irony. I should be ashamed to admit and to demand for more, but it is the truth, I want more of this.

You have done a very good job so far. Thank you for sharing. :)

Chapter 1: Oh this was such a delightful read. I adore the way it was written and in my mind you made Switzerland very beautiful. The details and the characterization (Dubu is adorable) were very refreshing. And the dialogue, their banter... They talk like they're from an older, more romantic era. I found that really charming.


Thank you for sharing this, authornim! Excited for the next update :)

Chapter 1: This made me wanna live in Switzerland. Living here in the Philippines is so tiring. Like mentally tiring. I remember during twice tv Switzerland, jeongyeon said she wanted to live in there and sell bread.. How peaceful will it be to live there? I saw this on Twitter. Glad I found it.

Chapter 1: This made me miss Switzerland. The breathtaking mountains, fresh air, the sweet scent of baked goods, those mountain-side train rides TT, and that unique feeling of being in one of the most beautiful places on earth. I never biked in Switzerland, but I want to now. Also, Sana’s character reminds me of Jessica Jung lol I’m glad she found solace in a new country. I know Dahyun’s gonna change her life forever. Thank you for writing. Looking forward for the next one~
