Reaction and Reviews

Everyone has read this story, I know, but for the sake of inventory, here it is, (bc it was mentioned by one of our followers that it wasn’t in the inventory which is a crime on its own). It’s the most bookmarked, has the most kudos, and probs most comments in the whole fandom, and it has these achievements for a reason. It. Is. The. Mother. Fucking. Bomb.[2]

i’m cryign i love this piece i’m!!! a huge fan of anything with heavy emotions so this angst hit me p hard in the feels ;;;;;;;; also the smut a lot of smut so much smut i have sinned someone pls douse me in holy water :^)))) and taekook!!!! i cannot stress enough how taekook is my otp and will forever be so there’s that :”> i hope you guys enjoy it as much as i did :-)[3]

I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again: this story has one of the most eye-catching summaries ever. Usually with summaries so vague I think twice before reading the story but I didn’t even have time to blink and I had already finished the first chapter and waiting for the second. This is one of the best taekook stories ever written, it’s heart-breaking but so incredibly sweet at the same time and how that is possible I don’t know. One of the best stories. Period.[4]

Ok this is actually my first taekook fic and then it got me infatuated by both BTS and taekook so I think y’all could imagine how good this fic is. The first thing I learned while reading this and some other fic(s) made by Wowoashley is how she/he was able to write the best smut scene. The scene(s) were filled with sexual tension and emotion that it got me shivering. Moreover, Jungkook is definitely a maknae on top.[5]
