It’s so exciting seeing chapters with scenes you’ve given us sneak peeks of before it feels like this story is moving so fast but also the slow burn is sloooooow and scorching!

Given that this last chapter ended on a swing, I’m feeling sentimental;

Did mc have a favorite thing to do on the playground when she was little? Slides, monkey bars, swings, the whirlywheel, balance beams, etc?

What is mc’s favorite dinosaur?

Does Mc have a favorite childhood book series? If so, what?

Hiiii sweet Chryssi! 💛💛💛

Aww I’m so glad! Sometimes I worry that chapters I’ve spoiled won’t be as fun to read, so it’s nice to hear 😊

Oh this is so cute… Playgrounds get soooo hot in sunny places, but I still kind of think she would have been a monkey bars kid (she wants to be tall) 😆 Maybe that plus whirly wheel…

Aww dinos! As a kid maybe velociraptors, and as an adult, maybe archaeopteryx!

To be honest I REALLY think she would have been a Harry Potter kid buuuuuut 😭😭😭 Let’s pick something else for her… Maybe in order of emotional attachment:

Animorphs

Artemis Fowl

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Redwall

The Spiderwick Chronicles

Nancy Drew

Stray Kids, releasing Karma the day after: and here’s our song 0801. About reassurance, belonging, and telling you that you have a home in us. 😌

The timing is immaculate

I loved the range of emotions from Jinnie to Hannie to Minho to Jeongin. I feel like we learned so much this chapter.

And that teaser, oh my. I think I know who it is. But I really want to read it! I love the way you write their emotional struggles.

Thank you for sharing, as always 🖤🖤🖤

Hellooooooo 🫶 I’m so glad you liked it!!! I love these chapters, I love the house arc, I’m having so much fun and I’m so happy to bring you all into this part of the story with me finally 😊

Hahahaha more than a couple people have guessed this week’s teaser boy already, so I don't doubt it! 😆

Hellooooo 😊 I’m doing well, thank you! I hope you are, too 🫶

No no I get this feeling too, hahahaha— On one hand it’s kind of overwhelming thinking of how long this story already is and how long it will take to post it all at this pace, but on the other hand… it’s going kind of fast…??

I don’t think Hyunjin and Han spoke right after that, actually! Hannie is sulking 😆 But don’t worry, they’re going to be just fine

Also, I’m loving the little bit of the house arc we’ve seen. I’m a sucker for domesticity so I’m really hoping we get to see more of that!

……OH NO… I DIDN’T…….. This is actually a nice reminder, thank you 😅 I think it was mostly done, too… 🤔🤔

Just finished ch 40 and the Han Hyun rivalry/jealousy is so 🤭 Seeing Hyunjin starting to more strongly vocalize that they have no intention of letting MC go is also 🥰 IN knowing exactly what to say 🥺 our baby bread has indeed grown up!!

Though the teaser! My guess is Han, because we've seen him vocally lash out when he's upset...hopefully he doesn't ruin too much of the pack's progress, everything's been going so well!! Though Chan sending Han to get MC and Hyunjin them was not the best choice imo...

I'm ready for MC to have to internally confront her little house mansion of lies... the way she keeps telling her self that all of this is temporary, when they custom made a room for her in their new house... the boys wanting her to spend more and more time with them... If Chan got out of his overthinking head and went for it... is she ready to say yes or is she gonna run away as fast as she can?? 😅

A random question I had pop up was... do all the moms of the boys know who MC is? do they also have a group chat bragging about who got to talk with her...sent her fruit..? is MC really the last one in the room who doesn't know who her soulmates are?? 😭

💙 Thanks for sharing RON with us, as always!!

Hi hiii! I really like the hyunsung rivalry in this fic so I’m glad you feel the same 😊 And the Hyunjin and I.N conversations felt productive, didn’t they?? I mean, I guess Hyunjin and MC got a little distracted during theirs…

Han has definitely been the most popular guess for the teaser! I shouldn’t comment but also…………… 🤭

Honestly MC’s way of thinking and lack of self-worth definitely continue on for a long long time, but I think at least as readers you get to examine it a little more next chapter! I think the way she sees herself and human relationships and the world as a whole is so skewed relative to a more, um…. well-adjusted person?, that a lot of things that might seem obvious to someone else are just completely impossible for her to accept at the moment. It’s kind of funny— I wrote MC, and elements of her writing hit a little close to home, so I think she makes a lot of sense to me just kind of naturally. But I’ve been noticing readers getting confused by and frustrated with her, so I hope parts of the next chapter might inspire a little bit of understanding 🙆

Ahhh would she run… She contemplates this herself, actually! It’s kind of hard to sayyy~~

Everyone’s families do know about her so yes, she is the last to know 😭 MC is going to have such complicated orphan feelings when she realizes she has like 8 sets of parents by marriage in her future

Percy Jackson hahahaha— Now that you mention it Calypso IS in the sequel series isn’t she?? I haven’t read it since like middle school, I don’t really remember… 🤔

But yeah you’re right, Greek myth Calypso! Romance and captivity and wanting someone who isn’t quite set on staying, that kind of thing?
