goodbye 2: electric boogaloo

i waited a few months to pop back in to answer dms and messages and such, just to make sure i caught most of them! i think i’ve responded to everything (and am now EMOTIONAL all over again bc i love y’all so much). truly you know how to make a writer feel loved and supported 😭🥰 

i’ll be logging off for good now, but remember you can always find me on discord if you need me! please take care of yourselves, know you’re wonderful and amazing, and go after your biggest dreams. i’ll always be sending y’all love and hugs and support through the internet! 🎉

[yehet-me-up]

Oh my gosh Sarah 😭💗😭💗

I nearly cried by reading your tumblr goodbye 🥺🥲

Today tumblr lost one of its best authors I swear! I don’t even know how long I am following your blog but I know it was one of the first and one of the best after I found your exodus mall masterlist! Since today I come back here to reread the fics because they are so f*cking well written and there is so much heart and soul in this stories it’s unbelievable ❤️

I am so happy that you exist and that you are so kind and share your talent with us and even now that you don’t delete the blog so we can continue on reading your great work! I will miss you so much! But I am also happy that you are happy and that you could make all these great memories through tumblr (that hopefully outweigh the bad)! 🥹💗

So as my goodbye to you: I love you and your work sooo much! Please stay the wonderful person you are! Take care of yourself and be healthy! Please just have a wonderful life! You deserve it because you made so many lives better with your writing 💗💗💗

Annyeong ❤️

ME AT THIS MESSAGE:

I'm at a pensive point in my life right now and as one of my favorite and first-followed writers/bloggers on here (your entire masterlist houses what I call my 'comfort fics'), it seems fitting that with some big changes in my life, so are you/this blog. Thanks so much for everything you've done until now and please stay happy and healthy as you move forward in your life and through your future <3

i love how we're all going through such a huge life/existential transition this year?? i'm not sure what it is, but it's nice to see that we're all having the same feelings of big changes and reflection. this message made me so emo, oh my gosh. thank you so much for the lovely message and for enjoying my fics! (i honestly can't believe it was something like FIVE YEARS?? that i was on here, time sure FLIES). i hope you take care of yourself and i'm sending all my best wishes for the future your way 😘💕 i can tell just by this message that whatever the next phase is for you, you'll do amazing <3

The end of an era🤧😭. You were one of the first writers that actually got me to start reading fanfics and the main reason I downloaded Tumblr. I'm so glad that you won't delete your blog it means so much to me it's almost nostalgic. Take care and ily🫂❤️

[yehet-me-up]

And, that’s it! I hope you enjoyed it, I worked very hard on it. Think of it as my love letter to your world. It helped me through a lot of hard times and gave me a reason to keep going and I can’t thank you enough for that. Good luck with your own writing in the future! I’m sure it’ll be amazing.

Sincerely, for the last time, Theatrical Gay Anon😊🌸

UHMMMMM>??? EXCUSE ME?!?!!??!

what did I do to deserve an ENTIRE FANFIC from you?!?!! pls, i am EMOTIONAL 😭😭😭 i absolutely adored how you saw all of them growing up and still being who they all are so many years later. i've thought in bits and pieces about where they'd all end up and i truly couldn't have come up with a better "ending" for the exo mall series. you did INCREDIBLE and i hope you never stop writing <3

thank YOU for being such an incredible friend and support on this loooong journey with this series and here on tumblr in general. this community kept me going through a ton of hard times as well. if i ever have a book published you'll be one of the first people i tell, i promise 💕💕💕

thank you again for this absolute GIFT and i truly wish you well on everything you do in the future 😘 i'll miss our discussions so much!

[yehet-me-up]

I honestly don't know what to say now that you're leaving. I just...your stories are so so so so so beautiful, especially All Our Broken Places (I'm a Chanyeol-biased little baby here). An infinity of thanks to you for being such a wonderful writer, sharing your passion, and giving us readers stories to live with and can come back with. I just... *sniffs* shut it self! No damn crying!

ahhhh thank you so much, sweet anon! I'm so touched 😭🥰 thank you right back for reading and supporting and for sending such a lovely message! I hope the stories are always a comfort for you when you need them <3 and I wish you nothing but the best (I'm emotional too, so I'm right there with you!) 💕💕💕💕

Saving up silver screen bandits to reward myself with it after something big heh I'd read all your exodus mall fanfics after finishing something like homework. Silver screen bandits will be my biggest reward yet

ahhhh i love that! i am honored to be a reward after a big project (esp. homework), i used to motivate myself to finish essays late at night by holding lord of the rings fanfics out as a reward. so it's truly a full circle moment! i hope you enjoy SSB and that you're incredibly proud of yourself for whatever big project/accomplishment you complete before reading it 🎉💕

a;sdfiodj me, popping in to check tumblr. me, seeing this. me, WEEPING 😭🥰😘 this totally made my day omg. thank YOU and all the other amazing folks in this community for being the most supportive readers/fellow writers on this entire site (I’m perhaps biased, but I think I’m allowed 😁). I hope my fics are an enjoyable walk down memory lane for folks whenever they think of them or when they need an escape from the real world for a while <3 exo mall is especially always there to be a safe place to hang out for a bit. I hope you are doing well and I wish you all the good things in the world. I’m always around on KKT and discord, so I haven’t gone too far 💕

Turning the page to a new chapter 💕

TLDR; this is my swan song/goodbye and thank you post for Tumblr 🥲 

I won’t be deleting my account or anything, so you can still find all my work on my Masterlist or in chronological order here! And you can check out my (obsessively compiled lmao) EXO support/info post here 😄 

I’ll be checking my inbox/messages here on and off for the next few weeks, so please feel free to hit me up on here for a bit longer 💕

I’ve been on tumblr since college, probably 2008 or so? At least a few years before Superwholock dominated the ENTIRE platform haha. I left sometime around 2015 and joined again in 2017 after lurking for a few months. This is the first thing I reblogged on here and it still brings me great joy. I was definitely a VIXX fangirl before EXO swept in like a wrecking ball and dominated my life. 

I heard about kpop in 2014 from a co-worker and really got into it in a big way in late 2016 during one of the hardest depressive episodes of my life. I wrote and read fanfic in high school and college (lord of the rings, harry potter, MCU, etc.) but had no idea there was anything like that for kpop until I randomly found a tumblr fic through a google search about a BTS MV in early 2017. I was shookt. I hadn’t written fanfic in years but something about this community, especially in 2017 during the heyday of a lot of groups, pulled me in like a riptide haha. 

After reading for a few weeks I finally started writing again in the Denver CO airport (a fic that will never see the light of day again ;alksjdf;laks) and posted on here the following month after deciding I’d do this just for fun and just for me. Spoiler alert: it got a bit bigger than that 😂 I have met some of my best friends on here. I’ve written so much that I’m proud of and this journey helped me write one book and get started on another. And I got to meet and interact with so many wonderful people about music, travel, writing, and life in general.

#catch me an ~emotional bish~ today pls

Welcome to the Exodus Mall

// Seattle, 1997 // 

The Kingdome still stands and Ken Griffey Jr. knocks out home runs night after night. Bill Clinton enters his second term as President. Pop music is edging out the grunge scene. The technology boom is taking over. And for the employees of the Exodus Mall, it’s a year of romance, longing, and misconceptions in the Emerald City.

// Map of the Exodus Mall + Character relationship map! //

↳ Incredible moodboards made for the first 7 fics in this series! 😍

// MINSEOK // - [ Don’t Call It a Love Song ]

It’s been two years since you opened the bookstore across from KMS Music. Two long years of falling in love with its sexy and sarcastic owner, never imagining that he might feel the same. You’ve always preferred fiction over reality; books and stories just seemed to be inexplicably better, and safer, than real life. But when an unexpected present is delivered on your store’s two year anniversary, you think you might have found the one person who can tempt you to leave the fantasy world and chase something real.

↳ Amazing moodboard made for this fic! 😍

↳ Bonus: It was a love song, after all - Minseok and Bookworm get ready to tie the knot after two years of mutual pining, a year of dating, and surprisingly soft Christmas Eve proposal. 

// YIXING // - [ Temptation ]

Cursing yourself for not majoring in something more practical, you struggle to find work after graduation. On the recommendation of a friend you finally take a temporary job working at Sinful, the chocolate store in the mall, for the Valentine’s Day season. You think that the name is perfectly suited to the man who runs it, Yixing. Sensual, talented, and creative, you can’t wait to get to work everyday to see him. You chastise yourself for having these feelings about your boss, but don’t seem to be able to stop. When the season ends he surprises you both, deciding that he wants to keep you in his life, as more than just an employee.

↳ A stunning moodboard for this fic! 🌟

// KYUNGSOO // - [ The Problem With Wanting ]

Quiet, observant, and whip smart, Kyungsoo keeps Barada Pizza running behind the scenes. Whether he’s firing up pizzas in the large stone ovens or slaving away over paperwork at night, his focus is on keeping the business going. He’s kept his nose to the grindstone for years, desperate to prove his family wrong, and lately he’s forgotten how to look up and see anything else. When you barge into his life, a wildfire of a woman in disguise as a waitress, he finds that for the first time in ages he can’t look away. 

↳ Bonus: Two Left Feet - you and Soo taking dance lessons before your wedding

↳ Bonus: The benefit of longing - An unexpected surge of jealousy while you’re out of town at a conference pushes Kyungsoo to finally ask you a question that scares him more than anything.

↳ Amazing moodboard made for this fic! 😍

// SEHUN // - [ Animosity ]

When you transferred to the Seattle branch of Starlight Apparel from California you never expected to take such an immediate dislike to one of your co-workers. But to be fair, he brought it on himself by being such an ass to you first. Sparks fly and tempers flare as you clash time and time again, neither missing an opportunity to provoke the other. But one long night locked together in an electrical closet during a power outage forces you and Sehun to reconsider your opinions of each other.

↳ Bonus: Like an old married couple - Sehun and Starlight are ready to head out for a weekend of camping and music with your friends, as long as your arguing doesn’t throw a wrench into things.

// CHANYEOL // - [ All Our Broken Places ]

If Kyungsoo is the brains behind Barada Pizza, Chanyeol is the bravado. Flirting with customers young and old in his loud and cheerful voice, in between calling out orders. With his ability to seemingly remember every customer’s name and order it’s no surprise that everyone who meets him falls in love. Outside of work he has no problem living up to his nickname of Playboy Park, with his personality and good looks. But beneath his bravado is a heart that he gave away years ago, to a girl who won’t even give him the time of day anymore.

↳ Bonus: Our Firsts/My Lasts - Chanyeol reflects on your relationship’s history while he writes his vows.

↳ Bonus: The Breaking - a prequel to All Our Broken Places. Warning: SAD AF, ANGSTY 😂

// JONGIN // - [ Freestyle ]

The front desk job at the KOKO Exercise Studio was supposed to be your fresh start, somewhere new to escape the past. If only your ex-fiancé could take the hint. When he starts invading your life once again, stopping by constantly, the last person you would have expected comes to your defense. The edgy, brooding dance teacher Jongin is definitely not how you imagined your prince charming, but he might prove to be just the man you need.

// TAO // - [ Fractions of Tomorrow ]

They always say opposites attract, but you and Tao are putting that theory to the test. He works nights at Flanagan’s, you work the crack of dawn shift at Starbucks. He wears leather jackets, swears like a sailor, and drives a motorcycle. You prefer Keds to Chucks, study poetry at UW, and ride a pastel purple bike across town. Luckily, he’s not someone who’s afraid of a challenge.

// JONGDAE // - [ Reboot ]

Chen’s Electronics is a mystery, both how the store came to be and the man running it. Some say Jongdae’s a genuis with an IQ of 157, a prodigy kicked out of University for being smarter than his professors. Some say he made his fortune young and got out of the tech industry early. No one knows where he came from, they just know he’s the only one they trust to fix their computers. When you start working as a receptionist for the enigma that is Kim Jongdae you’re determined to be the one who unravels the mystery.

// JUNMYEON // - [ The Meet Cute ]

Having a hard time finding a 17th Century pocket watch? An antique Tiffany lamp? A first edition, signed copy of East of Eden by John Steinbeck? Ask anyone in Seattle and they’ll point you to Guardians, a hole in the wall collectables shop known for tracking down anything hard to find. If only the single dad running it could find what he’s looking for; if only he could figure out who he’s looking for. When you start working at the mall daycare and he sees you playing with his son, with your joyful presence and endless patience, he suddenly realizes exactly what his life is missing: you.

// BAEKHYUN // - [ Silver Screen Bandits ]

You and your best friend Baekhyun have worked at the movie theater for years. Starting in high school, all the way through college, and now on nights and weekends while you work your “real jobs” during the day. The energy, the free movies, and Baek’s entertaining personality make it the perfect escape from the stress of the corporate world. All of your friends marvel at the fact that you two seem to have dispelled the myth that a man and woman can’t be just friends. But Halloween night at the mall turns everything on its head, in more ways than one.

↳ Bonus: The Brief and Disastrous Knighthood of Byun Baekhyun - some Hitch and Baek fun nonsense from high school.

↳ Bonus: New Year, Same Baekhyun Hitch and Baek’s New Year’s tradition is a bit more charged than usual after a challenge issued by their favorite waitress.

#last in case you missed <3 😭 #she done and i'm so proud #thank you all for going on this journey with me 💕

[yehet-me-up]

you were one of the first k-pop writers i followed on here, and i think i've had post notifs on for... 2 years now? i was always excited to see what you would come up with. thank you so much for all these years! i wish you tons of luck and happiness in your future!!

aosijdfalksfdj thank you so much??? i am so sorry slash your welcome slash I hope you enjoyed all of the junmyeon content over the years in addition to the fics 😂💕 truly it means so much to me, i'm honored! I wish you the very best luck and happiness in everything you do! <3

[yehet-me-up]

i delayed reading that last exodus mall installment until today because i didnt want it to end 🥺

fajs;iodfalkdf bestie, SAME. I legit put off writing it for months haha, and then all 11k came out in about 2/3 days and I just laid/lay? ah who knows. I just got on the FLOOR and let myself be emo about it 😂 like people write PhD dissertations quicker than I wrote this series hahaha posting it feels like an emotional support group for all of us tbh and it's meant the absolute world to me 💕

#asks #the sweetest anons

[yehet-me-up]

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💜 (I've loved the Exodus Mall series so much and I'm so glad it's complete! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I hope the future hold amazing things for you!)

AHHHH THANK YOU!! You're so kind, i am ~emotional~ 💕😭🥰 and omg i love this challenge, how fun! In no particular order my fave fics I've written are:

1 - At Your Service this is a Hyungwon fic for the MX kinks series and phew, it's like 6.5k and I wrote, edited, and posted it in one day like?? The thing just FLEW out of me and I've only had that experience a handful of times in my writing life. And this one was smutty and fun so it is also one of the most explicit things I've ever written 😂

2 - Bittersweet this is a Jinyoung soulmate fic and I was really torn between this and Ablaze as they both hold a special place in my heart, but Bittersweet is just ?? it captures so much of the pain and fear and friggin ANGST I was working through re: love and trust at the time, so it means a lot to me <3

3 - my favorite thing is attacking my friends with fics 😂 so either Say My Name or No Quarter or Frozen North that are all Chanyeol fics that I wrote for @yeoldontknow. Kat's reactions are always so fun and I had a blast writing all of them 😄

4 - Baekhyun is one of my favorite people to be inspired by, and Our Spring and All Night Long are two very different fics, but they're both faves. I love the push and pull of being a very bright happy loud outgoing person and also a quiet soft vulnerable human being and BBH is very much that to me <3

5 - The Problem With Wanting I tried not to cheat and just put all of the exo mall haha so I forced myself to choose a fave and WOW talk about sophie's choice. In the end the answer was clear. It's Kyungsoo's fic for me. I wrote this series over almost 5 years during which some enormous things happened in my life - both joyful and heartbreaking - and each of these fics is me processing something or discovering something about myself and my views on life and love. This fic came out at the most pivotal time in my life and it feels the most like /me/ when it comes to what scares me and what I want in a relationship <333

#asks #chicken-fifi #this was so much fun thank you!!!!!

My heart and soul, I just came back to Tumblr hearing bout your new update on the EXO Mall series and I'm here sobbing at the news of you leaving 😂😭 Take care of yourself writer-nim! Stay happy and healthy, our Peter Pan's and us, your fans, demand it 😤🥺💕

Halloween is always a noteworthy weekend at the Exodus Mall.

Children come to the mall with their families and enjoy trick or treating at all the stores, walking around with the Monster Mash and other spooky songs playing over the loudspeakers. Bosses and managers delight in record sales and happy employees, inspired by the festive mood. And for your group of friends - it’s the annual all-night party at the movie theater.

It started, as most wild ideas do, with Baekhyun.
