the people you call home

Description

Yuri works through her feelings a few hours after the last concert. It's probably not the best idea, considering her ache is still raw and her head is hurting. Nako isn't in their shared room either, having gone to gather with Hitomi and Sakura, and... and Yuri needs to get out. She can't handle the loud silence of loneliness any longer. (For the record, neither can Minjoo.)

                                                                                                                                  

                                                                      

A/N: hello :) it's been a long while! this would be pretty much my first time wiriting minyul, and it was not intended to be them at the start. the last concert left me with a ton of feelings, some of them too heavy for me to vent out through a mere tweet or two, so i set to work on a 01z story to channel those feelings out. somehow, 2k words in, minyul starts to fill my pages. and here we are now.

i won't say much except for thank you if you're giving this work a try. and thank you for being a wiz*one, too. i hope you'd enjoy, and please take care always! ^^

Foreword

 

 

 

yuri: can I crash


It’s succinct, to the point. The messages preceding it not so much, really; there are plenty of teasing words and exclamation marks, punching emojis littered in-between sent lines. Yuri refrains from scrolling up, forbids herself from backreading. Three dots appear to indicate the other person is typing, and then.


minjoo: not if you’re only going to raid my yogurt too…


Yuri feels her own lips quirk up, intending to smile—but the odd weight inside her chest burrows deeper, and she squeezes out a breath.


yuri: hmph. stingy witch

Chapter 1: Reading this surely opened up old wounds. I don't think i could have read this during the first week of D. But did Yuri eventually treated minjoo to meat tho? I can't recall.

Chapter 1: How much the amount of tears you cry while writing this? Because me, I'm sure I got buckets of tears while reading this story. The emotion expressed in words, its like a thousand of needles strike in your hearts in one blow and you know how good the story was when you felt and understand every words that the author wants to convey.


Can I call also IZ*ONE as a place I called home? Because wiz*one definitely feels Iz*one as their home. Both exist for each other :)

Chapter 1: this made me cry about a hundred different times and i had to take a breather multiple times throughout because of how much the emotions expressed and conveyed in this fic resonated with me. everything has been so, so much to process, and - well, thank you for putting into words how heartachingly beautiful this has all been. i hope it was healing for you, writing this.

by far the best characterization of izone (across the entire group, not just minyul) i have ever read in a fic. that's probably what makes this fic hurt/heal even more.

this story will sit with me for a long, long time. given the premise of the story and how much i'm still grieving - i'm not sure i'll be able to reread it any time soon, but... please know that i am thankful for it.

somewhere, somehow along the way, izone became my home as well. thank you for making me feel that through your story.
