Project X: White Snake

Description

In spite of the destructive war that wages around her, Haseol finds peace in manipulating two completely opposite mediums—magic and technology—into one cohesive unit.

Circuits are the future, a beacon for their war-torn world. And Haseol relishes in knowing that society is benefitting from her inventions and engineering expertise. Even the tiniest improvements are the biggest wins to her.

But more needs to be done to prevent the war from taking more lives than it already has. And when Haseol's older brother recruits her to work with Dr. Byun Baekhyun on a confidential government-sanctioned research project, she suddenly finds herself grappling with more than just math and magic within the white walls of Astral Ark.

Foreword

This was written for the EXO Secret Santa event hosted by Scarlet_Sky! My giftee was ObliviatedSoul and this is probably one of the largest projects I've ever completed in the shortest amount of time. It was never meant to be this long, but it kept spiraling into something more complex the more I wrote. I will be rewriting this into a proper full-length story, because there are so many plot points and relationships that I rushed through/underdeveloped to get it finished in time. I always want to put my best foot forward in my long-form content, so please stay tuned for the reboot!

Also, HUGE SHOUTOUT to Emilieee for literally being the best support system in the world! THANK YOU for sitting in a three-hour call with me and turning my original garbage plot into something plausible that I could finish in a few weeks, and THANK YOU for hyping me up with your comments while I was binge-writing every night until 3AM! I legitimately would have given up if it weren't for you. :') And now that I'm finished with the MLB-esque draft version of PXWS, we can get into the REAL nitty-gritty of the reboot, hehe~

ILYSM EM YOU'RE MY FAV

Chapter 1: Wow omgomgomgomg I'm in LOVE with this plot and the whole setting that. Dystopia and scifi especially are some of my favorite genres to read, so this automatically got bonus points from me. I was completely hooked just by reading the forward. I'm truly a science nerd at heart so the plot really appealed to me hehe ^^
SO. MANY. PLOT. TWISTS. AHHHHHH I literally felt my heart dropping every time white hair was mentioned omg. I seriously applaud you for making me feel so many emotions in a (long) one shot haha.
I absolutely cannot wait for this to turn into a full chaptered fic!! It would be so cool to have their relationship and the white snake's adventures (possibly even more of suho's abilities/capabilities, too) fully fleshed out! I know this was written for a secret santa event, but thank you for this amazing story!! I'll have to check out your other works now 😊

Chapter 1: Wow it's mind blowing. I've read a lot of obsession era fanfics and I can say that this is one of the best. The way you portrayed both Baekhyun as himself and as white snake was really amazing. Their journey was a bit difficult but they made it at the end 🤔 almost. The end was very interesting though. Did they actually merge together and what is going to happen to the project X now. Are you going to write another part for this? Please consider it once it's a really nice story. And great work.

Chapter 1: Half way through, I started to hate kyungsoo for only thinking of the project and it seemed that it was all he cared a put about.

Did the white snake and baekhyun merge into one??? I find it very sad that they both ended up loving her but only one of them ends up staying.
