if you had to make a list of the best kfic authors, who would be on it? not just currently active good writers, or your favorite writers, but the writers you think are the best in the fandom.
1. ugh they're all so attractive 2. sobs, can't believe it's been a year already 3. their company is already using jiwon's english (I GET EMOTIONAL WHEN COMPANIES MAKE GOOD DECISIONS) 4. jiwon's actually rly good at english even w/ his stupid hip hop gestures and constant PEACE 5. he's dumb enough for this group yay 6. MORE ANONS SHOULD LIKE THIS GROUP
Baekhyun didn’t kiss him in the middle of a drugstore. His fingers curled into the center of his palm instead.
and
He thinks, This us-against-the-world attitude is gonna get you in trouble.
He thinks, Shit, I’m really into you.

"Yeah," Chanyeol agrees absently. He drapes himself over the railing and reaches towards the water, thinking about bridges and demons and all the things you can’t outrun. "That would be fine."

these were the two (well, three) that immediately came to mind. idk what it is about them that stood out to me? for the first two, the shortness of the sentences makes it stand out, like the second shit in its own paragraph break to draw attention to it.
the last one idk, i still catch myself thinking about the "bridges and demons and all the things you can't outrun." if you're not familiar with the fic, it was at the end of a scene where they were on a zig zag bridge which is designed bc demons can only go straight so hence the outrunning part. and it's a very literal metaphor- chanyeol's crush is the demon in this sense. but idk it worked for me.
i was surprised that the first things that came to mind were more introspective thoughts, then i remembered that the first fic quote that comes to mind for me period is In the whole scheme of things, toeprints are pretty insignificant (from: http://thirdonebetween.livejournal.com/6138.html) so i guess thinky thoughts appeal to me more? who knows.
also mod, i have a question regarding the requests. i'm assuming that we're not supposed to give only ONE request/prompt, so how exactly is the "dear writer" part supposed to be worded? in the exchanges i've participated in so far it's basically been "list 5 or more prompts" so this is confusing to me /o\
nugu_seyo mods! is it possible to change my prompt? after scrolling through the previous threads i feel like i should have been less picky about the pairings i want to read.
I have just finished, and really enjoyed reading the first two books in Sarah Rees Brennan's Lynburn Legacy trilogy!! (Unspoken, Untold!) I'd also rec her Demon Trilogy, though the first book is told from a guy's POV, the other two are girls!
Sadly I can't think of any ya I've read with queer characters :(
