Review:

I find Taeyeon such a fascinating character; her POV is very difficult to capture but endlessly interesting to explore. This fic does such a fantastic job with that, of getting into Taeyeon's head. SunYeon (or Dandyu) are sadly quite a rare pairing, although given their bond I think there should be a lot more fics out there about them. I really like their dynamic, and I really like the way basic writers it here. Just a thoughtful, lovely read.

Excerpt:

She thinks about growing older, leaving SM, gaining freedom. She thinks about dating openly, and of consequently losing everything she has known for the last half of her life in return.

Would she still be able to sing in five, ten years? But more importantly, would there be people who would listen?

Taeyeon wakes up the next morning to a faint headache pressing against her skull and the sound of heavy rain pounding against her roof. The sky is angry and grey when she looks out the window. It's fitting, she thinks. Beautiful days make her heart feel empty, like somehow everyone on the planet got the memo on how to feel okay, except her. They are beautiful and blue and warm when there is a cold winter carving a space inside her.
