I've just been rereading your works when I am stressed. So glad to have you back! :)

Hi Anon,

So sorry for the late reply! This comment makes me a very happy author. I'm glad to know that my fics can offer a bit of comfort when you're feeling stressed ;w; <3

[lillupon]

A and B are in two different gangs (maybe they are the leaders) and the hate each other. they hate each other so much they don’t even try to start shit with the other gang to avoid them. they hate each other so much, they don’t even try to kill each other or members from the other gang as to not waste their time. they hate each other so much, they don’t ever talk or think about the time they didn’t know who the other was and they hooked up and had possibly the best sex of their entire life… one day A gets injured and doesn’t know who to trust and where to go, so he ends up at B‘s doorstep…

B: what the hell are you doing here?

A: I need your help

B: why would I help you? can’t you go literally anywhere else? a hospital maybe?

A: do you really think I’d be here right now if there was anyone(/anywhere) else I could go to?

… obligatory ‘who did this to you?’ moment

It doesn't exaaaactly follow your prompt, but this is all my brain can come up with. I ended up stopping where I did because I dunt kno nothing bout first aid heh.

The doorbell rings, tugging Wonwoo out of his dreams. The chime echoes through his sleep-hazy mind. The bright note of the doorbell is incongruous against the deep silent of the night, as out of place and unsettling as hearing an ice cream truck at midnight. For a brief and confused moment, he wonders if he had imagined the sound.

It rings again, just once, reverberating through the walls of his house. Immediately, the cobwebs of sleep are banished from his brain. Between one blink and the next, he goes from half-dead to full alertness.

He's not expecting any visitors.

Wonwoo grabs his gun first--he keeps it in the drawer of his bedside table--and his glasses second. He unfolds his glasses and slips them on as he swings out of bed.

Keeping close to the walls, he pads into the main hallway. Doesn't bother to turn on the lights. His eyes strain into the darkness in search of movements or signs of a presence. Everything is as he left it--and Wonwoo knows, because he is nothing if not meticulous about the placement of his belongings--but it doesn't stop him from clicking the safety off his gun.

Blood pounds in his skull as he makes his way to the intercom. A dark and hooded figure is standing on his porch. The man's chin is tucked, hiding his face. For a wild heart beat, Wonwoo wonders if this man is here to kill him, but then the man reaches out with a hand to ring the doorbell again, and as he does so, he tips his head up towards the camera. Wonwoo catches sight of the man's face and even in the dim lighting, Wonwoo would recognise those features anywhere.

The tension leaves Wonwoo's body all at once. (It occurs to him that he shouldn't be so quick to lower his guard, but he pushes aside that quiet warning. If Mingyu wanted to kill him, Wonwoo had given him plenty of openings already; there have been times, just the two of them, when Wonwoo had been arguably more defenseless than he is now.) He blows out a sigh, releasing one hand from his gun to unlatch the chain and unlock his door.

"Mingyu. What do you want?" Wonwoo says in lieu of a greeting. His flat voice betrays nothing of the tangle of emotions running amok in his chest. There's relief, certainly, that no one is here to kill him. There's worry and anxiousness because Mingyu should not be here. But maybe there's a smidge of delight, too. Wonwoo is, perhaps, a tiny bit pleased to see Mingyu at his door.

Only a little, though.

"I was in the neighbourhood. Thought I'd drop by to say hi."

Except Mingyu is never 'just in the neighbourhood'; he's not stupid enough to encroach on the Jeon Family's turf. The only time they ever meet is if they want to blow off some steam, and that only happens on neutral grounds, except for that last time... "Do you have any idea what time it is?"

"Not wearing a watch and I lost my phone, so no."

Mingyu sounds different. His voice is strained, pulled taut, and he's breathing hard. Wonwoo's eyes flicker down, landing on Mingyu's waist.

Mingyu is clutching his midsection. Notcing Wonwoo's attention there, Mingyu pulls his hand away, revealing a palm that is slick with dark, red blood. "...Can I come in?"

"Jesus Christ," Wonwoo breathes out. He steps aside, allowing Mingyu to enter and then shutting the door behind him. "What the hell happened to you?"

"Got slashed," Mingyu grunts. He makes a beeline for the couch, groaning as he lowers himself down.

"So why the hell are you here instead of a hospital?"

"Wanted to see you before I died?"

"Don't be fucking stupid." Wonwoo kneels down on the floor before Mingyu, slapping the other's hand aside. "Move your hand. Let me see."

Gingerly, Wonwoo lifts aside Mingyu's hoodie and shirt, both of which are soaked through with blood. The fabric clings to the wound, drawing a pained hiss out of Mingyu.

Wonwoo sucks in a breath through his teeth at the sight of the bleeding gash in Mingyu's side. It's oozing, deep enough that Wonwoo can see the pink insides. He covers it up again, applying pressure. He's no stranger to blood and injuries and death, but it has his stomach bottoming out to see it inflicted on Mingyu. "Mingyu, you really should go to the hospital."

"And deal with the fallout? Nah, think I'll pass."

"Even if you don't want to go to the hospital, don't you have a doctor that you can call?

Mingyu is silent for a moment before saying, "Things are weird right now, alright? I just... I trust you, okay? Just clean me up and sew me up. I'll be good."

another prompt is if you could do prequel to your omega mg story! thank you i love your works so so so much!!!

OMG? I am so happy people are interested in omega Mingyu!!

(As a side note, I also have another omega!Mingyu and alpha!Wonwoo arranged fic that I've never talked about which is almost at about 25k words, haha)

Honeysuckle was a sequel that I decided to release into the world because I wasn't sure if I would ever be able to finish the prequel. Currently, I've written about 17k words, and it probably needs another 5k - 10k more before I would consider it complete. I think it'll be a while yet before I can churn out those words, but I can definitely share a small snippet!

Below the cut is Mingyu and Wonwoo's first cooking class together! I always imagined Light A Flame Wonwoo for this fic, because I really think Light A Flame Wonwoo is peak alpha haha >w<

Before students begin to filter in, Mingyu checks to make sure that each station has a complete set of knives, cookware, and pantry items. A peek into the refrigerators assures him that the ingredients required for today's recipe are still there.

His heartrate begins to ramp up as the clock ticks closer to the start of class. Any moment now, students will begin to filter in. As he thinks that, two knocks sound at the door.

From behind him, a voice sounds, deep and rich, honey smooth. "Excuse me, is this the beginner cooking class with Kim Mingyu?" 

"Hi, yes, that's me--I'm Mingyu." Mingyu turns on his heel, a welcoming smile stretching across his face.

The smile on his face falters for a fraction of a second. He swallows.

It's impossible not to notice, how attractive the owner of the voice is. Narrow, monolidded eyes set beneath straight brows. An angled jawline, strong chin. The pout of his lower lip softens out features sharp enough to whet a knife against. His hair is the colour of red wine and carefully styled with gel; the sweep of his bangs curls at the temple. His shoulders fill out a startched white shirt, which is tucked into grey trousers that make his legs seem a mile long. Tiny waist. Mingyu could probably get his overlarge hands around it--not that he would ever do that.

They're outside scenting range, but Mingyu can tell from the way the man holds himself as he strides across the kitchen, that he is an alpha. He holds his shoulders straight, chin tipped slightly upwards. He's not a brick wall of muscle, the way some alphas are, but his presence takes up as much room as someone much larger than him.

Mingyu, intimidated, finds himself shrinking a little. He has to make a conscious effort to open up his body language. He meets the man halfway, extending his hand, which the man takes. The man's hands are cold and smooth, fingers long and slender in Mingyu's grubby grip.

"Hi, I'm Wonwoo." The man's face transforms when he smiles, entire face brightening. His nose scrunches; his eyes turn into crescent moons that catch the fluorescent lights of the kitchen classroom.

And his grin: so wide and brilliant that Mingyu almost throws a hand up and cringes away with a hiss, the way Dracula might when confronted by the sun.

"Hi, I'm Mingyu," Mingyu says, feeling dumb-struck.

Wonwoo laughs. "Yeah, you mentioned that."

"O-oh, right. I did."

glad that you're back! i opened tumblr as soon as i've got notification for your return.❤️

Thank you! I don't think I'll be as active as I used be while writing AEV, but I'll try. Back when I was writing AEV, I was working from home and getting away with about 2-4 hours a day, haha. Now I'm working closer to 10 hours a day!

OMGG got the notif that you posted again and i zoomed here as fast as i could HOW HAVE YOU BEEN DOINGG 🥺🥺🥺🥺

zoom!! ε＝ε＝ε=͟͟��͞( •̀д•́)))

I've actually been doing really well, and life is going good aside from the usual work-related stress. I hope you're doing well too, anon! I feel really bad that I haven't written anything for minwon in almost a year ><!! I have so many wips that are so close to being finished...

I'm usually too tired to write after work, so I've been reading and drawing a lot instead. I find reading and drawing a lot more relaxing than writing. This summer, I also got into the volleyball anime Haikyuu, and it's pretty much consumed me whole!

Here is an actual image of the inside of my bren

°•.¸¸.•°✿ Honeysuckle

Lately, I’ve been really enamoured by established relationship fics, omega Mingyu who’s a little shy and insecure, and alpha Wonwoo who’s an absolute fool in love (*/ω＼) The snip below is from the sequel to this Omega Mingyu cooking instructor idea (though I have yet to finish writing the main fic... oops)

Developments in Mingyu and Wonwoo’s relationship. Of the domestic kind. Of the sexual kind.

Mingyu liked to be out and about. He liked going to farmer’s markets and the lake near his apartment to feed the ducks. He liked visiting art galleries and museums, and going down to the harbour to walk along the wharf. And Wonwoo, who was usually a homebody, liked taking him on these little dates. Places Wonwoo had never cared about before suddenly seemed more appealing when lit up by Mingyu’s smile.

As the weather grew colder, they began to spend more time indoors. Mostly at Wonwoo’s apartment. Again: Wonwoo had no complaints. He liked seeing Mingyu making himself comfortable in his apartment. Mingyu used to be so shy and reserved in Wonwoo’s home. He used to ask for permission to use the kitchen or enter Wonwoo’s bedroom or sit on the bed. 

Now, he bustled about the kitchen, singing softly as he prepared a meal for them. Now, he barged into Wonwoo’s room and threw himself onto the bed. Giggled as he burrowed under the covers, and then he’d lie on his back with his arms out, a demand for Wonwoo to join him. It made Wonwoo’s stomach clench, the sight of his omega happy and relaxed in his bed.

Been getting some messages from an anon who said something along the lines of “Do you have any idea how stupid and hypocritical you sound for putting ‘minors dni’ in your Twitter profile despite writing about a MINOR having sex with an ADULT?” 

Not gonna lie, anon, but you kind of seem like a child to me? (In which case, the content I create is not for you). Maybe it’s because I’m Fandom Old™, but I don’t know any adults in fandom who stir up this kind of stuff. It could also be because I come from some open-minded fandoms like Harry Potter and Marvel. A good mentality to have in fandom spaces is “Don’t like, don’t read.” My fics aren’t for everyone. But I’m not forcing you to read it, so why you gotta be this way, damn...

Anyway, since you seem very determined to get a response out of me, I guess I have a few things to say! The first being: Do you have any idea how dumb you sound when you can’t tell the difference between a REAL minor and a FICTIONAL minor? T_T 

I’m biased, but I think AEV is a little more nuanced than, “A 23 year old and a 17 year old fuck.” I think I did a pretty good job of highlighting the internal and external conflict these characters experience because of their age gap. I tried to frame the issue in a sensitive way (っ˘ω˘ς ) 

Now, let me try to address your concerns. 

We note that 17 is above the age of consent in many countries. It’s common for high school students to engage in sexual relations with college-aged adults. It’s also common for a teenager to crush on someone who is older than them, whether that is a teacher, a mentor, an idol, etc. Sometimes, their fantasies will be sexual. The number of NSFW Twitter accounts run and accessed by minors is proof of that. 

Do I condone these relationships in real life? No. I would discourage teenagers from getting into relationships with adults for myriad reasons that go beyond the scope of this response. 

Do these relationships make me uncomfortable in real life? Yep.

Alas, this is something that happens. Teenagers have sex. Sometimes with people older than them. While you can have a reaction of violent and visceral disgust to it, there is nothing you can do about it when both parties are above the age of consent. And you definitely can’t do anything about it when it’s just happening in a story LMAO T_T;;;; 

AEV is a work of fiction. It’s not real life. The fact that I have no interest in talking to minors on Twitter should indicate to you that AEV is just a fantasy that I do not want realized, but critical thinking skills are lacking here.

If you understand ‘fantasy’ and ‘fiction’ at all, then you understand that there are things that people like to explore in safe, controlled, fictional environments that they would never explore in real life. Kink is an example. Murder is another really good example! 

Do you consume media where people get killed, anon? You likely do. I don’t think you would support murdering someone in real life, though. Do you consume media where people break the law? Again: likely. However, I don’t think you would consider yourself hypocritical for doing these things. That’s because you recognise the difference between fiction and reality.

(By the way, murder = illegal. A 17 year old and 23 year old having sex = not illegal. NOT PEDOPHILIA, stop watering down the severity of the word, Jesus Cries. Puritans like going after fandom creators who explore sex and kink--which is LEGAL--but don’t care to go after violent fics featuring murder and torture--which is ILLEGAL. I really wonder why? That’s not an invitation, by the way. It was just genuine curiosity. Don’t go after creators who write about the dark underbelly of humanity.)

If you can’t differentiate between fiction and reality, you shouldn’t be reading fanfiction. And you certainly shouldn’t be reading real person fiction. 

Anon, you must have been checking my blog every day for the past week to see if I’ve responded. You can stop checking now. <(￣︶￣)>

hi! I’ve been an avid reader of yours and I’ve been inspired to write my own fic 😊 but idk how to write fics because I used to study engineering and I haven’t taken creative writing courses while in uni 🥲 do you have any tips for writing? any will be appreciated 🥰 thanks! also here’s what I have so far: wwjeonkim/status/1428300922132701184?s=21

https://twitter.com/wwjeonkim/status/1428300922132701184

Glad to hear that you've been inspired to write your own fics ^^ I started out as a reader too. Taking creative writing classes is definitely not required in order to write. There's nothing you can learn from a creative writing class that you can't also learn from the University of Google and Youtube (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ The only upside I can see to taking creative writing classes in university is the opportunity to connect with like-minded writers and receive feedback. Being part of the fanfiction community makes it easy to do both of these things, and the feedback is also more genuine lol

I'm no writing authority, but my personal tips for new writers are:

Write a lot

Read a lot

Finished, not perfect (link goes to a 1:33 minute YouTube video)

*shot*

But really, I think as a new writer, the single best thing you can do for your writing (at least in the first few months you are starting out) is to get a lot of volume under your belt. I think this is true for any discipline, not just writing. I would focus on writing down the stories in my head without worrying about perfect grammar, character development, story structure, reader input/feedback, or any of that other stuff. In my first year of writing, I wrote about 250,000 words, which is a lot for me. You get to see really big improvements in your writing after the first 50,000 words, then 250,000 words, then 500,000, then 1,000,000! (I am still working towards 1,000,000)

(You can read my early attempts at writing on my AFF account. They were Not Great lol)

When reading, I would pay attention to prose, and character and plot development. There's a lot to be learned via osmosis! As a new writer, I spent a lot of time imitating the styles of authors I looked up to.

Lastly, I would encourage new writers to commit to finishing projects, whether that is a scene, a short story, or a novel. When I first started writing, I could not finish a project to save my life. I developed a bad habit of starting stories and then abandoning them. You can learn a lot by seeing projects through to the very end.

After a couple months of writing, you'll probably be able to pinpoint your weaknesses and you'll have some writing goals in mind. That's when I would venture to writing resources and YouTube. I think it's too overwhelming and paralyzing to start with all these guidelines and techniques. But now you will be ready for some deliberate practice (*´▽`*)

I remember enjoying the craft book Sol Stein's On Writing. There was a lot of good information in a single book. Over the years, I pretty much read every single book on writing that was available at my local library.

Here are my two favourite YouTube Channels for writing: Alexa Donne and Abbie Emmons. Alexa Donne has a video on Book Writing 101 and a playlist for Writing Basics. Abbie also has a playlist New Writers: Start Here.

I like these websites for writing:

If you have a tumblr, there are so many writing blogs you can follow, too!

Hope that helps >.< Happy writing!

Hi lei!!!!!! It's been awhile. I had a school related question since I remember you have like 20 degrees. I took Calc 1 - 3 in highschool and I've signed up for Calc 4 this year in college. If you've taken it, on a scale of I love this class! This belongs in the darkest, most evil circle of hell. Where would you put it? I'm not gonna drop because I'm too prideful lmao but I'd like to prepare myself ahead of time. I've heard rumors about it that do not give me any good thoughts. Lets all pray for my soul here.

Hello!! ヽ(・∀・)ﾉ

Ahh, this is a hard question to answer because there are so many variables to take into account ;w; I think it's best to trust your friend's judgment on this since they are most familiar with your high school and university. Even though I took calculus in high school, I found the rigour and difficulty of questions of university calculus to be on an entirely different level. I'm not sure if it will be the same experience for you. University calculus made me confront a lot of the gaps in knowledge I had accrued during my high school career. For me, this adjustment period was difficult, as well as sobering and humbling, haha.

I have a degree in math, so of course I loved it >.< All my calc profs were also really awesome and approachable! If you have taken other math classes at a college level, calculus is usually the easiest. That's probably the best comparison I can make for you Dx

You sound like a strong student, so I am sure you will be fine (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ Good luck!
