Do Not Wants: mcd

Prompt:
Please be careful what you say
'Cause if I split in two you will be to blame
'Cause I know nothing better and nothing worse

And tell me what to believe, and tell me what to deny
And whisper into my ear till everything dark turns bright

Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
[A knock at my door / I thought I was alone
Unaware of what I thought I needed / I dropped like a stone
If I'm not mistaken, then I was the last to know
And if you return for me, I'd never want for more

...

You're dislocated / don't be like that
And you smile when you dive in / like you're never coming back
So hold my body / yeah, hold my breath
See your face when I black out
I'm never coming back

OH MY GOD!!!!! The Earth rotates around the sun, the moon around the Earth and Mingyu around Jeonghan. THIS IS IT THIS IS THE GYUHAN THESIS STATEMENT

“You paint him like you love him,” this is so raw and like such a good view into Jeonghan's mind and his paranoia and jealousy oof how does one line accomplish so much, and then combined with the fact that mingyu has asked to paint jeonghan before but jeonghan always says NO???? HELLO THE SYMBOLISM, the fear of not being able to give someone something and thinking they're going to get it from someone else I'm-- [lies down]

thank you for filling this I love it!!!

Re: [FILL] try again try again try again

[personal profile] arundels 2022-12-26 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
“I’m good for other things than just letting off steam, you know.” OH MY GODDDD

also this:
“Let me try again,” Jeonghan says at length. “Let me try this again. I'll get it right.”
“Which part? The part where you don’t let me say it?”
“Yes.”
“I love you.”

the idea that the thing jeonghan struggles with isn't so much loving as it is BEING LOVED...... hahahahaha I'm UNWELL this is so sweet and fond but also heart-wrenching and vulnerable, thank you so much for this fill

holy shit op your MIND

Hopeless romantics are the best architects; they know how to hide their pining. This line caused me physical pain it's so good

Re: [FILL] the poets are right

[personal profile] arundels 2022-12-26 02:34 pm (UTC)(link)
those lines that wonwoo almost says but doesn't... the way you use it to build backwards the picture of their relationship... I'm haunted this is beautiful

"I can't stop thinking about him," Wonwoo almost said, since that language would certainly speak to Seungcheol. But the thought of his feelings being conflated with Seungcheol's wholehearted, one-sided adoration made him want to throw up. this... THIS!!! THIS!!!!!!>!>!"<ÂŁ"$KRK

the final "we can do it. I'll teach you. we won't let jeonghan win" stabbed me in the heart

god I have no words this is gorgeous

Re: [FILL] lost in the forest

[personal profile] arundels 2022-12-26 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
this is gorgeous, and the way you weaved in the forest metaphor... oh my god!!

But does the Seokmin that Mingyu loved into life still exist, without him? And if that Seokmin doesn’t exist anymore, who is it now, heart ripped in his chest, throat scraped raw with unshed tears, that throws away a pile of sweaters and an old pair of Prada sunglasses?
this is soooo good like the idea that someone has made you better or different, but then what happens when they leave, who is the 'you' that is left behind ahhh I adore this thank you for the fill!!
