Rating System

So I think I’m gonna start rating the fics I recommend just to give you an idea of what I would recommend the most, so for my previous posts I’ll just edit my ratings in (which I edit my posts a lot sometimes I’ll notice a spelling error and just go dhbwhbfherhfbehrbfh NO). Anyhow, let’s get down to business!

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

RATINGS OUT OF TEN

1 - 5 (probably will never see)

1 - 6 are the ones I wouldn’t really recommend, although I doubt you’ll ever see them on my page. Kinda self explanatory too, I guess?

6 - 8

Good, but they didn’t really stick with me and I had to re-read them to actually rate them. (I have like, 57 fics bookmarked on ao3, and that’s just for SKZ, so sometimes storylines and whatnot get jumbled in my head, and I’ll be like oh this fic is the one where such and such happens, but it’s actually another fic. Or I’ll click on it and be like “what was this fic about again”)

9 - 10

Again, as I mentioned, I have 57 fics on SKZ bookmarked on ao3, so if it’s rated 9 or 10, definitely worth reading because I looked at the title and went “oh yeah that was a good one” (good time to mention my memory is absolute shit.)

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

anyhow, just refer to this rating system when going through my fic recs. Have a great day!

Something???

Hi everyone! 

I haven’t posted in a really long time, i know. I’ve made so many excuses for my absence and if this one just sounds like another excuse, i honestly don’t blame you. 

Recently, my mental health has not been the best. It’s so hard to focus on anything, and I don’t have the energy to get up and be productive. School has also been really stressful recently. 

I’m really sorry for my absence, and to be honest, i don’t know if i’ll post at all anymore. Feel free to hang around, or unfollow if you want. Maybe i’ll post again or give you an update when I finally feel better and have my shit together, but for now, I’ll be taking a really, really, really long break. Maybe a few weeks, or even a few years, and I can’t even promise that I’ll be back, but I can say that I’ll try my best to.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me; every like or follow truly does mean so much. I hope that maybe one day I’ll show up on your fyp again.

Love,

Sunny

Fic Rec of the Week

Hello everyone, and welcome back to the first fic rec of the week in a long time! I hope you enjoy my recommendations today! :)

under the sky in room 553 i discovered you and i by spellfire (Teen and Up Audiences)

Summary (borrowing author’s summary because I can’t put this beautiful masterpiece of angst into words) : “Have you ever heard about the origami hearts tradition in the hospital?” 

Taking the heart, the child excitedly inspected it, nodding in glee. “Yes! My mama told me that when someone leaves the hospital to go to heaven, we all fold a paper heart for them! Like this, like this!” 

“That’s right,” chuckled Soobin. “But do you know how it started? It started here, in this room. From a boy who used to fold a paper heart every day for his lost love, hoping each one he makes will take him closer to the day those eyes would open again.”

"Unfortunately for him, the day never came."

In other words, a hopeless love story of two childhood best friends who didn't realise what it meant to have each other until it was too late; compiled of yearning, loss, forlorn hope, unrequited love, and every tragedy in between.

Additional Tags: Angst(like really angsty), death, friends to lovers, unrequited love, flashbacks, hospitals, car accidents, suicide attempt, suicidal thoughts.

Personal Note: First, let’s welcome our very first TXT fic. Second, you might have seen this fic blowing up over tiktok, and let me tell you, it is so worth the hype. This fic almost made me cry, and it takes a lot to even make me almost cry. So yes, it’s very angsty, but I love it.

Rating: 10/10

Blue Neighbourhood by polaris_dreams (Teen and Up Audiences)

Summary: One place can often carry boatloads of memories. For Felix, this blue neighbourhood carries his childhood, best friends, first love, a broken heart, and Lee Minho.

Additional Tags: Angst, Implied/Referenced abuse, Childhood Lovers, Friends to Lovers, Growing Up Together, Lost Love, First Love, Angst with a Happy Ending, Hurt/Comfort, Implied/Referenced Homophobia, Pining

Rating: 9/10

Struck by your Electric Love by RosePetalsAndRain (General Audiences)

Summary (borrowing author’s): “Baby, you’re like lightning in a bottle,” the singer smiled into the night air, voice sweet as candy in Jisung’s veins and leaving him breathless, needing to hear more, the more he heard. Addictive.

Goosebumps prickled at Jisung’s entire body; every hair standing on end as he drank in the sound; the sweetest he was sure he’d ever heard… maybe love was possible at first sight.

Tags: Fluff, meet cute, love at first sight

Rating: 8/10

Fic Rec of the Week

Meant to upload this yesterday but the day had different plans. Hope you didn’t wait too long! I’ll try to stick to Saturdays as much as possible.

catch a glimpse of the hollow world by the24thkey writes (the24thkey) (Teen and Up Audiences)

Lee Minho moves to the countryside to live with his cousin, solves a murder mystery, meets new people, and learns to face himself.

Additional Tags: Action/Adventure, Murder Mystery, a little bit of angst? Persona 4 au

9/10

It Takes Three by dyoityourself (Teen and Up Audiences)

(borrowing author’s summary) Kim Seungmin has a gigantic crush on his childhood friend and roommate, Yang Jeongin. Too bad he's sure Jeongin doesn't feel the same way, but maybe it's for the better, he wouldn't want to ruin the best thing he's got. Not to mention there's something else weighing on Seungmin's mind, a secret not even Jeongin can know.Hwang Hyunjin is the boy he didn't expect to come into the picture, but perhaps its all the better that he did.

Additional Tags: College au, fluff, humour, light angst

8/10

In Your Dreams by dyoityourself (General Audiences)

Jisung gets continuously sucked into Hyunjin’s dreams, and when they go from violent and stabby to romantic, the line between dream and reality becomes unfortunately clear.

Additional Tags: Dreamsharing, fluff, minor violence, canon, mutual pining

8/10
