    Bookmarker's Notes

    Realized I hadn't bookmarked this series and that's a crime. This is everything to me. A long and winding journey through healing and life. I will read this for 10,000 years.

    Summary

    “Aigoo, you’re really one of us then.”

    “Oh. Um—” Jisung is aware that he really should clarify things, but words completely escape him at the moment.

    “Yeah.” The lone man of the group shoots him a small, yet strangely blinding smile. “We’re all single parents here.”

    “Oh.” Jisung, it seems, has completely fumbled his vocabulary.

    “Come sit with us,” the group’s leader gestures to him. “You can share our lamentations. We all help each other out here.”

    in which: Jisung’s life had been stuck in place for a while—same routines, same days, nothing really changing. Then he befriends a sharp-tongued teenager, somehow ends up in a single parents’ support group pretending to be his dad, and, for the first time in a long time, things start to move again.

    You walk in thinking this is a romantic comedy and you leave with life lessons and having watched a man relearn how to live his life.

    Summary

    If you ever see this—
    if the universe hiccups,
    and you somehow land in a strange corner of the internet,
    where your silhouette is folded into someone else’s midnight—
    I hope you know:

    Someone’s been rooting for you.
    Quietly.
    Gently.
    Even if you don’t smile.
    Even if you never look over.
    Even if you’re not real.

    Goodnight, stranger.
    I’ll be here again tomorrow.

    – J

Things take a bizarre turn during the annual Christmas exchange when his recipient asks for: cemetery soil, a raven's feather and drops of his own blood.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Genuinely SUCH a good fic. The characters are SO human, and flawed, and .ost importantly they dont just sweep the hurt away with "I love you". They genuinely work things out, and prove to each other that they both choose each other. The author has a way of showcasing the POV character's thoughts through the way the experience the world that just makes the whole thing so immersive. Seriously, it's so good and deserves to be read 10,000 times. I could write an essay about it.

    Also, Funzone sounds like this place I went to as a kid, but I have no idea what it was called. I remeber a puzzle logo, bowling, Lazer tag, a jungle gym, and a dedicated party room but suddenly im wondering if it was a fever dream. This will bother me forever, thanks.
