who i was, from the start [YoonYul, JeTi]
Favourite Soshi Fics
Review:
This is definitely my favourite JeTi fic and one of my absolute top two SNSD fics. I've reread this at least four times, and that's not including the times I've just reread the JeTi parts. This is a YoonYul fic first and foremost, but most people agree that the JeTi towards the end steals the limelight. There are so many things to talk about that I don't think my description could do justice to the fic. I would absolutely recommend this to everyone, and I really think that you're missing out if you haven't read it.
darkaslay has a way with language; her prose is not flowery, exactly, but it can be so eloquent and beautiful. There are certain lines/passages that just haunt me for a while. And her sense of humour is brilliant. The characters are so real to life because they're flawed and sometimes so frustrating (one word: Tiffany) but also so amazing and just HUMAN. I have to warn you: this is one of those fics that'll have you unable to take your eyes away from the screen.
Excerpts:
First dates were usually at the movies, or over a simple dinner, not an evening walk in the woods. Yoona felt like she was punted into her childhood, where she was back to following Yuri blindly, even if the girl took her to the edge of the Earth.

“Do you even know what love is?” Tiffany turned around and distanced herself from Jessica with every word without even moving anywhere. “Love is needing someone, really needing them, physically, emotionally, mentally, and still letting them leave you. Then each second after that is hell and you think it couldn’t possibly get any worse, but you get proved wrong every passing second. Love is the that beats you in every way possible and everyone is an idiot for crawling back to it. Not me. I refuse to be that idiot.”
