#i just... wow

HUH?

I don't even know what to say, that's so-... crazy? I literally don't understand lmao, as someone who's been on the verge of crying tears of joy just thinking about season 2 dropping for the past like 3 years, I can't imagine someone being more excited about my stuff than the actual show, I almost refuse to believe it 😭

WHERE DO I START? I LITERALLY LOVE THIS SERIES SOSO MUCH YOU DONT UNDERSTAND. i keep 3tan soso close to my heart. it’s one of my favorite fics i’ve read on this app and undoubtedly my favorite yoongi fic. i think your characterization of yoongi in this fic is just so heartwarming and endearing. i usually have a hard time getting into yoongi fics bcs i feel like it’s always too hard to imagine yoongi in some of the personas he’s put in, BUT THIS??! ITS PERFECTION. it’s close enough to yoongi that it’s not hard to picture him being like this and i feel like this just embodies how hot and irresistible he really is.

moving on to the latest chapter, i loved it so much. i love how yoongi encourages oc to share her thoughts with him so much that she now knows not shy away from telling him things. it just makes the communication between them so strong and also makes this so much more enjoyable to read. usually fics in these type of tropes are literally centered around miscommunication, so this is such a breath of fresh air. you captured all the fears and doubts of being in a situationship like this so well. i was able to empathize with the oc easily and it was almost like her pain was radiating off of my screen. also this couple is so cute together i cry 🥺😖 . THE WAY YOONGI GOES SO SOFT FOR HER OMG?!! it’s so cute to see (or read ig). he’s so attentive and he cares for her so tenderly and you can tell that he treats her differently than he would if it was anyone else. oc can’t really see it yet but he’s really into her, and if there wasn’t the obstacle of her brother i’m sure it would be even more evident. also i loved the pov switch and being able to see yoongis perspective . it really solidified how he feels about her and helped aid readers to feel that he’s very much in pain of having to end the routine of constantly seeing oc and having to get back to reality in the end, because even if you can’t read what he’s feeling you can feel it through his words and actions.

overall the greatness of this fic all comes down to you and how well you wrote this. you are amazing, you convey your characters and their emotions perfectly, the plot is interesting, you add details that just contribute so much more meaning to the story and the characters. the little ‘filler’ drabbles did not feel like fillers i felt like they just created depth to all aspects of this fic so that when you read longer parts, you can notice the little things better and just see a bigger picture. you’re really just genius that’s what it is. i also enjoyed your playlists so much too like your taste is absolutely exquisite. it’s rare for me to like fic playlists cause some of the songs don’t sit well w my music taste but i didn’t even have to try to get used to yours it was just perfect. the one you made inspired by yoongi was so on point, it was literally like you put him in a playlist generator and it made yoongi in playlist form. i don’t even know if that makes any sense but either way you did that.

lastly, i just wanna say thank you so much for writing this. i would imagine doing this takes so much hard work and precision and the fact that you’re taking the time to do this for us and for free at that, is such a big deal. you deserve all the appreciation for all that you do because this is far from easy. thinking of intricate plot lines and characters, and being able to make this stories linear and structured like this is so. so difficult and yet you were able to do it flawlessly. i really applaud you for that and i’ll be here just cheering you on with your journey of writing this fic because you deserve it. im wishing you good luck with all future chapters, make sure you take all the time you need and look out for yourself and your mental and physical health because that’s most important and should always be prioritized. thanks much, and have the best day :)

rip this was such a long review especially to leave in an ask box im saurr sawwryy 😩😭

oh my god. @galactichoneyy when i tell you i read this 25 times and counting, i honestly think i'm lowballing it. it's literally taken me an entire week to compose a response i deem appropriate for something as heartfelt and thoughtful and beautiful as this. seriously, thank you so incredibly much.. even now, typing this, i feel like anything i say won't be good enough.

for one, thank you for even saying something. i don't know if you know how important this is, but messages like this are what i will go back and read when i'm feeling insecure about my writing or unsure if i should continue at all. that's how impactful words like this are.

second, i'm so glad that you love this yoongi. i do, too, and probably more than i can express in words or language. to say that he's close to the yoongi that we are used to seeing? i'm dang honored, truly. i also keep this series to my heart and love every single person in this story. what's more, i love when y'all add your own color and personality to it, too, with all the messages and theories and discussions. idk but it is deeper than love at this point.

as far as the chapter commentary: i love every single thing you said?? wOW. your mind! you caught on to reader's growth so quick and how she's opening up faster and shutting down her overthinking faster, too. their communication in this chapter was amazing, which is a testament to how they could work bc they were together pretty much the entire chapter and there was almost zero (ZERO!!) miscommunication. will it be perfect all the time? no. but will all of it be human? i am working hard to be sure that it is.

and the fears and doubts.. whew. they were certainly present, especially given everything that went down in this chapter. and yoongi going soft for her? i cry.. you're so right. he treats her differently and, even though his inner dialogue shows restraint, his actions don't a lot of the time. inner conflict is the source of angst for yoongi, which a lot of people were wanting (to which i warned: you don't know what you're asking for LOL)

but wow.. thank you so much for the kind words about the writing itself. you said so many wonderful things that i'm kinda just sitting here and reading them instead of responding LMAO i don't know what the hell to say!! i guess i'll just say that i feel so deeply for this story, these characters, this journey in general. so anything i'm feeling is what i'm writing, alongside all the real life reminders and messages i'm hoping i am conveying to anyone that reads it.

maybe that's what three tangerines really is in the end: a love letter from me to you.

WAITTT AHHH the playlists get a shoutout, too?! you are way too kind what the hell! yoongi's was so fun to create and your comments on it are turning me into complete MUSH LOL i'll just be on the floor now.
