Seungmin who rarely shows affection in a “traditional” way.

"Here. You like this stuff, right?" He roughly thrusts a bag into your hand. Opening the bag, you were shocked at the sight, there were so many adorable keychains and tiny stuffies. All Pochacco, your new obsession after seeing that Pochacco hat on your boyfriend. Your favorite out of the bunch was a Pochacco keychain and it's matching pair, Pochamii. "Wonder how that got there..." The blush on his ears told you everything.

Seungmin who learns how to show his affection with you.

"Baby fever hitting you pretty hard Seung," "Shut up," he grinned, squeezing your hand softly.

Seungmin who is so so gentle and loving but also gives you so much to make sure it takes.

Seungmin who picks you up and swings you around with a grin after seeing the positive tests.

"I'm so happy! I can't wait! You're going to be an amazing mom," He hugged you from behind, kissing your neck before snuggling his face in the crook of your neck, not wanting to let go.

Seungmin who is obsessed with peppering kisses over your baby bump.

"You look beautiful." "I look like this everyday." "You get prettier by the day," He grins, rubbing your stomach gently.

Seungmin who goes to Minho for help on how to make your insane cravings a reality.

"You know what looks like it'd taste good? Laundry detergent." "I love you but what the fuck. No. absolutely not. This is why they put a child lock on them." "I'm not a child." A raised eyebrow from your husband makes you laugh. "Okay okay how about chips with syrup and onion rings with peanut butter and chocolate?" "Oh god."

Seungmin who falls in love with you a thousand times over when you excitedly takes his hand to feel the baby kick.

"Feel! Hurry!" You yanked his hand from the bag of chips and placed it on your belly. His offended look was replaced by one of surprise and love.

Seungmin who refuses to let you do anything, coming to you after household chores because we love malewife minnie, to lie down next to you and whisper things to your belly.

“You did a wonderful job, my love.”

paint my love

hwang hyunjin x artist!gn!reader genre: fluff warning(s): none other than hyune being a bit of a crybaby

note: took me a while but i finally got to fully write out my little thought from here because tbh sending in asks to sage gets my brain going lol

word count: 2.1k omg

“Hey Bin! Um... can you do me a favor? Like a big, big favor?” Your best friend nodded eagerly, awaiting your words. "Can you... buy me a studio? Nothing huge. Just a studio?"

Changbin looked at you as if you were speaking gibberish. At this point, real gibberish would have made more sense. "Um. I love you but why? You have a studio and Hyunjin. Ask Hyunjin."

"Well, you see... I want to give him a new studio for our anniversary but I want to keep it a secret. A very secret secret and it’s not like I can drop a grand or two randomly and play it off." You looked at Changbin, reaching for his hand on the table. "I need you, Binnie."

He raised his eyebrow. "You need my money."

"Well... yeah. But I'm a good friend so I'll say I need you. Besides, I'll pay you back," Grinning, you gave him the best puppy eyes you could muster, causing him to groan in defeat.

"Fine." He pulled out his card. "For the love of this world, do NOT go buying a whole bunch of buildings. Okay? Ask Chan for his card if you're gonna do that." Changbin smirked and handed you his card before getting up to pat Hyunjin's shoulder, who looked at you with a puzzled facial expression.

Later that day, you spent your time sketching cherry blossom trees, scraps of your designs littered the floor of your shared room-turned-mini-studio, which was mostly filled with Hyunjin’s finished projects and some half-finished projects. With both of you being artists, many of your projects mixed with Hyunjin's. You tugged at one of his binders and flipped through the paints your boyfriend had bought or created. You found various shades of pink and red, ones you considered using for your project. After all, it had to be the most perfect anniversary gift for him.

"I'm home~" Hyunjin kicked off his shoes and found you scavenging through his binders and some of your folders. He gave you a quick peck on the top of your head. "Artistic rush?" You nodded and he chuckled, sitting down next to you. "What are you looking for?"

"Just some shades. I'm trying to find the nature catalog." Humming softly, you leaned against his shoulder. "I had a little thought." Laughing softly, you traced patterns on your boyfriend's thigh. "How was practice?"

"It was kinda fun today. We goofed off mostly and we were all okay with it. Even Minho was okay with it." Hyunjin tangled his fingers in the locks of your hair before reaching into a mess of binders and pulled a smaller one out. "Here."

"Thanks Hyunnie.” He hummed his acknowledgement, kissing your cheek again.

“I’m gonna shower and work on some things,” He got up and went to get his clothes from your bedroom. You, on the other hand, grabbed a spare bin, put the catalog, some paints you could easily find, and many brushes or various shapes inside. The rest of the day, you looked into multiple art studios, trying to find ones with a nice view and large windows. 

“This is the one.” You found a lovely, spacious yet cozy studio that faced the west, allowing one to see the prettiest sunsets from the room. Booking a viewing appointment for tomorrow, you quickly made another checklist; things to double check and look for to make sure what you were buying had the proper things. Grabbing your tote bag, a birthday gift from your boyfriend who painted delicate roses on the sides, you put the list in, your car keys, and your wallet with Changbin’s card inside. 

“As you can see, this studio has a smaller, more private office area with a lovely view of the city. It’s perfect for smaller businesses or artists or all kinds. Out here,” the realtor led you out of the little office to the outside space, “is the kitchen and a large open area here that can fit your various needs. Should it be a living room, meeting area, art studio based on your pretty bag there.” The woman smiled, gesturing to your tote bag. 

“It’s beautiful. May I check and look around the studio?” 

“Feel free to. I have another client downstairs so take as much time as you need,” The realtor smiled and left, going to the bottom floor to meet the client. Looking around, you checked for any damage, locating wall outlets, checking the space, checking the windows. Satisfied, you went down the many floors to find the realtor, going to make your down payment with Changbin’s card. 

You better love and use that studio to bits and pieces. Pay me back when you can :>

Texting Changbin back that you promise to pay him back, you drove home, catching Hyunjin on his way back to the house from a company dinner. Next week, you’d start the painting and prep. “Hi Jinnie! I finally figured out my artistic rush. So unfortunately I’ll be busy for a long long time.”

You giggled at the silly ferret’s antics. “Oh no! You’re going to disappear off the face of the Earth for a long time. When can I expect your kisses?” “Mmm… a week or two?”Jaw drop.

“Lord. Are you being summoned to paint down in the depths of hell? What are you painting? A skyscraper?” Hyunjin pounced on you, hugging you tightly and peppering kisses all over you. “Come back alive, my love.”

“Dramatic.” Laughing, you hugged him back, with a big grin, “I just wanna perfect this project. Besides, I literally see you everyday, angel.”

“Alright, alright fine.”

For a few days, you spent hours painting the walls, deciding on a green summery background, with faint mountains in the background. Coming home, you set your bags down, sighing, glad to be home. “Babyy!” Hyunjin comes to you, hugging and spinning you around with a wide grin. “You have green paint on your cheek… You’re really using that nature binder, huh?” 

You flushed a light pink, attempting to wipe off the dried paint. “Ah…” Laughing slightly, you rest your face against Hyunjin’s chest. Stilling slightly, Hyunjin brought his hands up to your head and your back, rubbing soothing circles on your back. 

A week later, you set the wet brush down on the paper, admiring your work. In the center of the wall was a grand cherry blossom tree, its branches stretching across the walls and parts of the ceiling. The white and pink blossoms stood out against the greenery, a flurry of floating blossoms seeming to drift in the wind. After hours of research, you found UV paint and glow in the dark paint. You outlined the tree and some blossoms. You added small details in your mural, working a lot later than you normally had, determined to finish this soon.

By the time you finished detailing, you gasped in wonder as the paint glowed brightly, seeming to shine brighter than the night life down below. The next and last day, you took the UV paint, marking up the mural with tiny messages. Satisfied, you sat on the couch, taking in the view of your finished mural. You were proud of the work you produced, stopping to admire it while you were cleaning up the studio. Before you left for the day, you left a little bag on the counter with a note. 

“Can you believe we’ve almost been dating for 4 years?” Hyunjin smiled as he held you close, his arms wrapped around you, blanketing you with his warmth.

“Speaking of which, I planned dinner at the restaurant we went to on our first date tomorrow.”

“Really? Do you think your message is still by that table in the corner?” Hyunjin’s eyes shined, recalling the memory.

On your first date with him, you both went to this small local restaurant. It was cozy yet elegant in its own way. After finishing your meals, you pointed at the wall next to the table, decorated with messages from its many visitors. “For good luck?” Hyunjin shrugged, pretending not to seem overly excited. “Sure.” You found an open area on the wall, scribbling the date. You thought for a moment before writing Y/n & Hyun - our first date ~ Hyunjin tried his best to hide his smile as you got up to use the restroom. Unbeknownst to you, he stood up and wrote a message of his own near the ceiling, convinced you’d never see his wish for luck. 

“Good morning darling. Happy anniversary~” You woke up to a decorated room, the walls of your shared room covered in many sketches and drawings. 

“What is this?” Walking over to the walls, you read off the writing on a smaller sketch. “‘The 73rd thing I love about you. Your sleeping patterns.’” The sketch depicted a person, presumably yourself, curled up like a koala. You laughed and looked at other sketches. “‘The 12th thing I love about you. Your hugs.’ ‘The 5th thing I love about you. Your smile.’ ‘The 1st thing I love about you. You.’ Aw Jinnie… I love it so much. It’s beautiful. I love you so much. Happy anniversary my love.” You hugged your boyfriend tightly, kissing him lovingly. 

“Where is it…” Your finger traced the walls, scanning for your message. “Found it! Right here, look!” You pointed at your faded handwriting, smiling brightly. You drew a heart near your previous message and wrote a new one. Happy 4 years to the one I love. “I don’t remember if you wrote one. I don’t think you did, did you?”

“I did write one. Honestly, I was completely head over heels for you when I first met you…So I wrote one in secret. Didn’t want to scare you away if you knew how much I cared about you.” Hyunjin blushed, looking away from you before searching the writing near the ceiling, pointing at the corner. I know it has to be you, so please let it be you. Underneath was a small cherry blossom, a symbol of when you first met Hyunjin. 

“Speaking of cherry blossoms… It's time for me to show you your gift.” Taking him to the tall building, Hyunjin was confused, unsure of what you could be referring to.

“Oh my god. Did you buy this building?” He paled slightly, making you laugh.

“Why does everyone think I’m gonna buy a building?!” Shaking your head with a smile, you took him up to the studio, placing the key in his hand. “Happy anniversary, darling.” Hyunjin nervously unlocked the studio, gasping at the sight.

“A new studio? For me? This is your gift? Oh my god.” You flipped the lights on. The mural was fully revealed, nearly bringing your boyfriend to tears. “I…” He rushed to feel the wall, tracing the blossoms. “Cherry blossoms. When we first met…” 

“This isn’t even the best part.” You grinned, relishing in how emotionally touched he was.

“There’s more?!” He nearly shrieked, trying to figure out the tricks you hid up your sleeves.

“Close your eyes.” Hyunjin hesitantly closed his eyes, anxious for the rest of your surprise. You turned off the lights, waiting for the paint to glow again. The low glow of the paint illuminated part of the room. “Open.”

Hyunjin stared, mouth agape at the glowing mural. Tearing up, he sniffled, coming to hug you tightly.“It’s beautiful. I love it so much. I… don’t even have the words to express how much I love this. It’s stunning…” 

“Go grab the bag on the counter.” Hyunjin reluctantly peeled himself off you, sniffling as he grabbed the small bag off the counter. “Go ahead, turn it on.” Reaching inside, he revealed a UV light. He turned it on, waving it around. “No you goofball, point it at the wall.”Slowly but surely, the UV messages you spent writing all over the mural revealed themselves. Your boyfriend was full on sobbing, sitting by the wall, tracing your messages with his finger. Looking back at you with tears streaming down his face, he made grabby hands towards you, making you come over to him, hugging him and laughing. 

“Don’t look at meee…” Hyunjin sniffled, wiping his face with his sweater sleeve as he read your messages aloud. “‘I expect my kisses in two weeks' time.’ ‘If you find this, I may or may not have used up all of your green paint.’” Hyunjin laughed, still crying as he buried his face in your shoulder. “I love you. I love you so much. I thought you bought me a whole entire building… Maybe I should do that. Buy you a building so we can paint every room, every wall, everything. I’m gonna paint the world for you.” Giggling, you wiped his tears, pressing a quick kiss to his lips. 

“Gonna paint my endless love for you.”

it's taken me forever but i'm actually so close to finishing thisss........ if i don't get distracted (which happens often) maybe expect it in a few days??? i'm kinda jumping around to do the parts i wanna write first lol

imagine decorating a little studio for hyune's painting

like painting a pastel-ish sunset with a giant cherry blossom tree. painting particularly longer branches and painting the flurry of petals that stretch across one of the walls.

being the artist you are, you use some uv paint to write motivating and cute messages on the branches of the tree, some messages that seem to dance across the pastel sunset. and to top it off, you use glow in the dark paint to make the tree and the cherry blossoms stand out from the rest of the walls for when hyune likes to work in a dimmer setting.

the studio is an anniversary gift for jinnie and on that day you hand him a little bag. inside was a key, a paper with an address and a uv light with a note that read: for the slow or tiring days <3

at first he nearly cries at the sight of the illuminated room... he does end up crying when you turn off the lights to let the paint shine. now he's a clingy baby, sniffling, laughing and almost ugly crying when he reads some of your loving messages.

he swears he's gonna buy you a giant building so you can fill each room with your art and love.

i swear i might actually write a fic for this 😭😭

~🌶️

U ACTUALLY SHOULD JUST WRITE IT BABES IM CRYING THIS IS SO SOFT :(( our painter hyun :(( he'd def be the type to love someone who'll support him and his hobby so if u were to do something like this??? He's gonna be looking up engagement rings the next day

Some of my writer’s block cures:

Handwrite. (If you already are, write in a different coloured pen.)

Write outside or at a different location.

Read.

Look up some writing prompts.

Take a break. Do something different. Comeback to it later.

Write something else. (A different WIP, a poem, a quick short story, etc.)

Find inspiring writing music playlists on YouTube. (Themed music, POV playlists, ambient music, etc.)

Do some character or story prompts/questions to get a better idea of who or what you’re writing.

Word sprints. Set a timer and write as much as you can. Not a lot of time to overthink things.

Set your own goals and deadlines.

Write another scene from your WIP. (You don’t have to write in order.) Write a scene you want to write, or the ending. (You can change it or scrap it if it doesn’t fit into your story later.)

Write a scene for your WIP that you will never post/add to your story. A prologue, a different P.O.V., how your characters would react in a situation that’s not in your story, a flashback, etc.

Write down a bunch of ideas. Things that could happen, thing that will never happen, good things, bad things.

Change the weather (in the story of course.)

Feel free to add your own.

#im in a semi massive block rn #i've never tried handwriting bits #bc typing is faster #i'll try it

[underaverageheight]

Writing tips for long fics that helped me that no one asked for.

1.) Don't actually delete content from your WIP unless it is minor editing - instead cut it and put it in a secondary document. If you're omitting paragraphs of content, dialog, a whole scene you might find a better place for it later and having it readily available can really save time. Sometimes your idea was fantastic, but it just wasn't in the right spot.

2.) Stuck with wording the action? Just write the dialog then revisit it later.

3.) Stuck on the whole scene? Skip it and write the next one.

4.) Write on literally any other color than a white background. It just works. (I use black)

5.) If you have a beta, while they are beta-ing have them read your fic out loud. Yes, I know a lot of betas/writers do not have the luxury of face-timing or have the opportunity to do this due to time constraints etc but reading your fic out loud can catch some very awkward phrasing that otherwise might be missed. If you don't have a beta, you read it out loud to yourself. Throw some passion into your dialog, you might find a better way to word it if it sounds stuffy or weird.

6.) The moment you have an idea, write it down. If you don't have paper or a pen, EMAIL it to yourself or put it in a draft etc etc. I have sent myself dozens of ideas while laying down before sleep that I 10/10 forgot the next morning but had emailed them to myself and got to implement them.

7.) Remember - hits/likes/kudos/comments are not reflective of the quality of your fic or your ability to write. Most people just don't comment - even if they say they do, they don't, even if they preach all day about commenting, they don't, even if they are a very popular blog that passionately reminds people to comment - they don't comment (I know this personally). Even if your fic brought tears to their eyes and it haunted them for weeks and they printed it out and sent it to their friends they just don't comment. You just have to accept it. That being said - comment on the fic you're reading now, just do it, if you're 'shy' and that's why you don't comment the more you comment the better you'll get at it. Just do it.

8.) Remove unrealistic daily word count goals from your routine. I've seen people stress 1500 - 2000 words a day and if they don't reach that they feel like a failure and they get discouraged. This is ridiculous. Write when you can, but remove absurd goals. My average is 500 words a day in combination with a 40 hour a week job and I have written over 200k words from 2022-2023.

9.) There are dozens of ways to do an outline from precise analytical deconstruction that goes scene by scene to the minimalist bullet point list - it doesn't matter which one you use just have some sort of direction. A partial outline is better than no outline.

10.) Write for yourself, not for others. Write the fic you know no one is going to read. Write the fic that sounds ridiculous. You will be so happy you put it out in the world and there will be people who will be glad it exists.

Every single fic update there is an author trying frantically to find the right balance between a nonchalant aside of "leave a comment if you enjoyed =)" and clinging desperately to the coat tails of a random stranger, dragging along behind them on the street wailing "Please, please! I have to know what you thought! I'm desperate to talk to people about this! Ask me about the alliterative repetition! Ask me about the symbolism!"

Balloons

dad!lino x fem!reader genre: fluff warning(s): dad lino (yes that's a warning) kinda proofread

word count: 1k (1001 lol)

Sitting on her father's shoulders, she pat and tapped the top of his head pointing rather wildly. "Daddy. I want that." You daughter, Minji, pointed at the man selling balloons across the park.

"The balloons? You want a balloon? Okay my little star~" Minho grinned, patting his daughter's leg. You walked alongside your husband, enjoying this peaceful scene that will forever be ingrained in your mind. Minji was perched atop Minho's shoulders, her tiny hands clutching his longer hair, giving him adorable little pigtails. Minho set his daughter down on the grass as the three of you walked to the vendor. She squealed and ran quick, making a bee-line for the bundle of balloons. You giggled, putting out your arm to stop Minho from running after his little star, earning you a puzzled look from your husband.

"As much as I don't want her to get hurt, it's grass and she needs to learn that she should slow down sometimes." As if on cue, Minji fell on her hands and knees. Minho nearly rushed to his daughter's side til you tugged on his sleeve. "Watch, Min. She learns quick." You felt the tension leave Minho's body as Minji got up, dusted her hands off and simply walked to the balloons. "See?" You smiled, squeezing his hand reassuringly. Walking up to your daughter, you crouched down and dusted her clothes off. "You okay, honey?"

Minji nodded and pointed at a pink balloon. "This one. Can I- I mean, may I have a balloon, Daddy? Please?" Minho nodded and got 3 pink balloons for his daughter. She then gave one to you and to Minho. "There. Now Daddy, Mommy, and me all have a balloon!" You kneeled down to tie the balloon around Minji's wrist as well as your husband's. Minho returned the favor, giving your wrist a light peck before nudging you softly.

"I still would've given you both balloons." You looked at him in confusion.

"Why?"

"Well, you're both short." He smirked. "I can't lose both my daughter and my wife at the park today, can I?" You rolled your eyes with a laugh.

“You’re insufferable. But that’s why I love you… I guess.” Grinning, you gave Minho a light kiss and went to Minji.  “Minji, honey, what do you want to do here at the park?”

“I wanna play on the swing and… and play hide and seek and play tag…” Minji looked around almost frantically, wanting to do so many things. She gave you a look, almost identical to you husband’s pouting face, something that made you give in every time.

Minho bent down to his daughter’s level. “Race you to the swing, little star. 5… 4…” Minji screamed excitedly and took off for the swing. Minho took a light pace behind her, scooping her up before she reached for the swing. “Daddy got you, Minji~ Daddy wins!” This earned him his signature unamused look from his own daughter. “Okay, okay… You almost won. Next time, yeah?”

Minji huffed. “It’s not fair. Daddy’s a giant. Right Mommy? Cause- cause Mommy’s a lot smaller than you. Just like me.”

Giggling, you took your daughter from Minho’s arms. “I agree, it’s not fair. So you’re gonna grow up and tower over your dad. Then you can race him.”

“But I wanna grow up now! I wanna be a giant too!” Minji began pouting again. She wasn’t much of a crier though. A pouter? Yes

“Wanna be a little giant for today? Sit on the swing, Minji.” Minji sat on the swing, clutching on the chains as Minho gently pushed her. “Jagiya~ She looks so much like me.” Minho’s lips formed an adorable pout.

“I know. She’s just like you. Rarely cries, she has your pout and stare-”

“She’s gonna be a menace when she’s older.”

“Oh so you admit it?” You smirked.

“What? No. I’m just saying… Oh alright yes. I’m a menace.” His ears turned pink as he grumbled, resting his head on your shoulder as he continued to push Minji.

“Except when it comes to your daughter.” Your husband hummed in response.

“Daddy! Stop pushing me, I wanna play hide and seek!” He chuckled, bringing the swing to a stop as Minji hopped off and looked up at her father. “Daddy, you’re gonna hide with Mommy and I’m gonna find you. 1… 2… 3…” Minho took your hand and started running, his face overcome with this giant grin. There wasn’t much to hide behind in this open park but you both made it work. You hit behind a tree and Minho crouched by the bushes. “Ready or not… here I come!”

Minji ran around, searching the highs and lows of the park. From behind the tree, you saw her pink balloon trailing behind her, stopping and moving just as she did. “Found you Daddy! I found you!” Minji popped out from the opposite side of the bush he was hiding in.

“Ah you got me~! You’re good at this Minji!”

Minji smiled. “You’re just bad at this game, Daddy. I could see your balloon when I ran over here.” She tugged on his fingers. “Let’s go find Mommy.”

Minho scanned the park, nearly missing you as your own balloon barely peeked out from the tree you were hiding behind. “Star, go for the trees. I have a good feeling.”

Minji ran towards the trees, searching around. “Mommy! I found you too!” She squealed and jumped into your arms.

“Hey… I wanted a hug too!” Minho opened his arms and you set Minji down, watching her jump into her father’s arms. He swung her around, earning giggles from Minji. Your heart swelled with love as you watched them, going to kiss the top of your daughter’s head and kiss Minho.

“I love you both so much.”

“Me too Mommy!”

“I love you too Jagi.” Minho nuzzled the crook of your neck before whispering softly. “I can’t believe we made that.”

“Way to ruin the moment, Min.” Rolling your eyes, you intertwined your fingers with his.

“What?”

a guide to leaving feedback / interacting with fics.

recently in the kpop fanfic community, there have been a lot of authors that depart from their blogs due to the lack of feedback & interactions they receive on their fics. this could be due to a number of reasons, but since we are a fic-recommendation blog, we figured we would do our part in helping the community be more aware of a couple ways on how they can spread love on their favorite works and prevent more authors from leaving due to this specific reason!

please understand that is just the perspective of the admins of ficscafe. other people have different preferences and opinions, but we compiled information gathered from perspectives of an abundance of authors and this seems to be the middle ground / popular belief. if you have any questions or concerns, please drop by the ficscafe ask box.

reblogs + text response. if we’re talking about the best way to promote authors and make them feel good, reblogging the fic itself and writing your feedback in the body of the post is the way to do it. there’s nothing better than an author clicking their notifications and seeing a reblog + comment on a fic they’ve written. it not only helps with promoting, but it also gives them an idea of how their audience feels about their work! comment within the reblog vs. tags. there’s nothing wrong with either of these! they both have the same purpose—promotion with feedback for the author. the only setback for tags is that if the author wanted to respond to your comment, it would require them to take a screenshot instead of reblogging with your feedback above theirs. stuck on what to write in the comments? easy! write literally anything pertaining to the fic. you can quote parts of the story where you felt a certain way, you can compliment the writing style, or you can discuss your thoughts on the fic. you can also talk about how much it impacted you, how interesting the storyline was, or even the uniqueness of the fic. literally anything. authors love hearing from their readers, and it motivates them to continue writing more !!

comments. only leaving comments is fine, however, it’s not particularly the best when it comes to promotion. authors do love seeing how their audience feels about their fic–but it’s a bit discouraging when their readers comment but it wasn’t good enough to warrant a reblog. authors sometimes depend on their tags, networks, and pages like ours to help with sharing their stories, but it only goes to a certain extent. please reblog !! your reblog will be more helpful than you think.

likes. probably the absolute worst way to express your adoration for a fic. tumblr is not like instagram—in order for the fic to be spread throughout the community, liking won’t take it far. liking a fic and leaving it as that is almost as if you’re hiding the fact that you enjoyed it. if you really did enjoy the content, please refer back to #1 as to which is the best way.

leaving asks. this is sweet !! we understand that sometimes readers can be shy, but again, it has the same result as #2 comments. leaving asks means interacting with the author, and this can create an ongoing conversation and build a relationship with your favorite author. nothing is better (other than a reblog + text response) than seeing a little bubble above your inbox with a new ask.

donations. this is probably the least popular action. there’s nothing wrong with authors asking for donations, but they shouldn’t make you feel like it’s an obligation or guilt trip you into doing it. donations should be within your means–but if you can donate and the fic was worthwhile enough to donate, feel free to do so! most authors have a kofi, but if they don’t, feel free to drop by their inbox and ask!

Your son, Hayun sat on your lap, leaning against you.

“Once upon a time~” you tickled your son who giggled, sitting up and looking at you with the most eager look in his eyes. “A long time ago, there was a boy who loved to joke around and listen to music. He was the sweetest thing in the world. He would often show off his talents, a bit worried for the reaction but still confident nonetheless. One day, I was reading a book- way bigger than the ones I read to you- and I felt a little tap on my shoulder,” smiling, you tapped Hayun's shoulder, making him smile brightly, “that jokester in our class smiled at me and asked my name. Then he asked if I wanted to go somewhere with him."

“Like a date?"

“Sorta. He said, 'you look bored reading that giant thing, how about we play hooky instead?' I didn't even-"

“Mom? What's hooky?“ Hayun looked up with his soft brown eyes and you smiled. You were glad that Hayun got his dad's eyes.

“It just means we skipped school for fun. Anyways, I was a good student for the most part. I never missed class, never late until this day. I didn't even know the guy but I took his hand and he took me to the park for a bit and we walked around."

Hayun's eyebrows furrowed. “Mom. You forgot to tell me his name. What's his name?"

“His name? Oh right. It's Han Jisung. Always told me I had to say the entire thing so people knew his name. As I was saying, Jisung took me to the park, then took me to get lunch at the cutest bakery. The one at the corner we always pass by? Yeah that one. Then he took me to the rooftop and we watched the sunset."

“Then what happened Mom?"

“What happened… well the rest is history.“ You smiled ruffling Hayun's hair. “We played hooky a few more times before he asked me to be his girlfriend. It was about 2 years from then that he proposed to me." Hayun held your hand with his small fingers.

Pointing at your ring, he asked, “He gave you this?“

“Mhm. And the best thing he gave me aside from his love was you, Yunnie." You kissed the little boy's head, smiling brightly.

“And then what happened?"

“And then…” A somber look passed your face, “well Jisung got involved in an accident, honey. So Ji went on a trip and now he's up there." You pointed up at the night sky. “See that bright one? That's Jisung. And Ji… well, he was your dad."

“Oh. So Dad's up there? That's where he is?"

“Yes Yunnie."

“So when can I see him?"
