Bookmarker's Notes
This hurt and swelled all the same. From the focus on Jeongguk's journey through and away from a toxic relationship to the comfort found in the simplest of places. Like a radio station studio, with its year-old post-it notes and all.
Loved the depiction of Jeongguk, loved the subtle signs that Yoongi was falling for him- love that Jeongguk had thoughts of how wonderful Yoongi was from very early on, but that doesn't mean you accept your feelings or realize them right away.
And the patience. The love.... Muah!

“It’s pretty late you know, usually students don’t tend to hang around when they have homes to go to and tv to watch.”
“I’m not a student though.”

Read this in one go and I was so enamored by the writing and the intensity that simmered throughout the whole fic. I read it with excitement and awe and it ended perfectly. Love.

Summary
“Hyung? Can I ask you a question?”
Yoongi turns so that he’s laying on his side, only to find Jeongguk already staring at him. It’s a bit hard to see him in the minimal light, but Yoongi can make out the general outline of his face.
He nods, and Jeongguk stills.
There are a few moments of silence before Yoongi hears him speaking again.
“What does my voice sound like?”
(Or, Jeongguk is deaf and Yoongi just kind of wants to give him the world.)

Summary
Seokjin has pillow creases in his cheek and his eyes are puffy, still closed as he slowly rolls onto his side.
Yoongi lies next to him on his back, turns his head towards Seokjin’s sleeping face, whispers, Kim Seokjin, I think I could fall in love with you.

Easily one of my favorites. It's comforting and kind to the heart. I've thought about it every now and then since the first time I read it.

i can hear your flowers (they're singing for me) by stateoftaegi for grumpnerd

Summary
But what really amazes Taehyung are the paintings on his skin. It is difficult to ignore them. They are red flowers characterized by thick green stems; some leaves seem to stretch the roots over the throat of the young student. The designs are not simple drafts. Each petal has its own life on his skin, as if they were shaken by the wind, and the darker veins are hypnotic. Taehyung would like to get even closer, more and more until he can touch the roughness of the painting and kiss – yes, kiss the skin rich in art and history. Because Taehyung recognizes those stains, recognizes that among those brushstrokes, there is a story and – oh, how good would it be to also hear the painting sing?
or yoongi paints flowers over his skin and taehyung finds his quiet between them.

It's a fic I hold close to my heart.
It's a story about paint and flowers. They boys are soft and fragile to the touch, and where paint dries up and sheds like skin, the flowers grow in between the cracks and heals the hurt.
Sometimes, bricks falling apart build castles for the small people who find comfort in the weeds on the cobblestone.
Heart-breaking and wounding. Beautiful.
Thank you for letting me be a part of this.
