Whewww. I had heard nothing but screaming endorsements for this fic and remember finishing it and immediately putting on my eye-mask because staring blankly into the far distance wasn’t enough, I needed to stare into a gaping black maw and just BE for a little. ALL THE RUMORS ARE TRUE, this is incredible.

There were so many lines woven in here that took my breath away with their tenderness, and so much raw and blistering self-excoriation from Reader going on in here (but god, they’re fighting tooth and nail even when they’re not fighting at all to rewrite that inner-script, or at least to move on from it) that was only too relatable—the process of Becoming and Unbecoming is so messy and can be so graceless sometimes. But every so often it can feel so good, and be so rewarding, too.

Sometimes that process happens through a dope ass queer (M?)(M?)(F?)—idk lmfao—threesome with Biker!Kook. Sometimes it is through your worst fears getting realized and being abandoned SEEMINGLY because You Fucked Up and then simply lacking the energy to fuck up again and make a toxic decision. Maybe that’s it’s own kind of resilience. Or growth. Maybe not.

Yoongi comes back anyway.

Reader’s relationship with their sexuality and gender lit up a lot of lightbulbs for me and I appreciated reading how they experienced sexual drive, too. I actually just deeply appreciated this whole story. Thanks for writing it, Max.

[hesperantha]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Putting on an eye mask and staring into a black hole is the best compliment. I’m so glad you read and enjoyed this absolute mess of a journey ❤️

[hesperantha]

Just read your set me free and (sorry for being dumb and slow here) I can't figure out why or how king yoongi remember her when she came the second time (and in 2028). Or how is he alive when she already killed her first...? Also, who is the historian? How come she can time-travel as well and the agency(?) doesn't know...? I really like your fic and I hope you can enlighten me with some answers. If you don't mind of course. And thank you for writing. Wish you good days.

Hello, friend! I’m so glad you sent me your questions. My answers are going to be somewhat crap but here goes.

He recognizes her the second time because they broke time itself by sending her to the same place/time twice and since the Initiative didn’t believe her about it, they’re going to do it again and keep breaking time more and more, which is never good. He recognizes her in 2028 because every time their paths cross, the bond is stronger. We don’t get to see much of 2028 Yoongi but I imagine he experiences something like a flicker of deja vu when he sees MC. If other versions of her mark had a chance to see her again later in her own personal timeline, he might get to the point of greeting her with a “oh, you again.” And then immediately take off running.

The historian is just that - a time traveling historian from farther in the future than MC’s time. Here’s where I confess that the idea of time-traveling historians (and the general time-travel mechanism used in this fic) is from Connie Willis’s Oxford time travel series, which is just fucking great. My favorites are Blackout/All Clear (a pair of books about historians studying WWII). At the time that the Initiative is functioning, historians haven’t started time traveling yet, which is why they’re unaware of them.

I hope this helps answer some of your questions and thanks again for reading!

You like Sundays best.

Hoseok has a different dog-walking route than usual and it places him near your house early in the morning. Yoongi joins him with your mismatched pair of dogs and the two of them come back about an hour later to have coffee at your house. 

Aside from the dogs being both exhausted and hyped up due to the excitement of the extended walk, it’s perfect.

What an incredibly sweet send off for Yoongi and the reader. Little glimpses of their settled life together and the happiness it holds in everyday moments. Just as they had a sort of honeymoon leading to a wedding, I imagine they might renew their vows and then travel again. I’m not asking for that because the story is perfect ending here, but these two probably have a lot of adventures left in them despite the prevalence of gray hair.

This series had everything. Humor galore, friendly faces along the road trip, deep conversations, and self-reflection. I’m not ready to give the couple up so I can see, as it is for others, it will become a reread when I want to revisit these complicated, funny, and highly likeable people.

[hesperantha]

Thank you so much for reading! I’m delighted that you enjoyed the ride 🥰

*******************************

“Like this,” he says, sliding your foot forward on the bench. You’re gripping the top of the cubicle wall, trying to stay upright as he sucks on the tender skin on the back of your knee.

“Don’t fucking tease me, Tae. I hate that shit.”

“Mmm, I know you do.” His tongue darts out to lick along the inside of your thigh, leaving a glistening wet trail. “But it’s worth it.”

He grabs your hips and pulls you toward him, presses his face to your belly, humming a low note that sends a shiver through you. So close to where you want him. You let go and move your hand to his hair, tugging hard on the silky strands.

[here2bbtstrash]

waaaaah. ooooof. excuse me while i dab my face with my sweatshirt bc i started crying somewhere around chapter twenty and haven’t stopped (and frankly, i’d been holding it in since chapter eleven)

max, this is no joke one of the best stories i’ve ever read. i’ve read whole published-ass novels that don’t hold a candle to this. i mean my god, this has everything i love. reflections on aging and gender and queerness. depictions of flawed humans doing their best, and fucking up a lot, and struggling to communicate while also dealing with weird funky feelings that don’t fit neatly into one box or another. there’s adventure, trauma, booze, and fuck capitalism babyyy !!!! with a lovely threesome and AFAB-receiving blowjob as cherries on top ✨

i’m honestly kind of at a loss for words of what else to say (rare for me, a person with multiple leo placements). this series is like “stare at the wall for 20 minutes in silence trying to process” levels of good. i want to crawl inside this world and live there, with these two characters that i love to bits, separately and together. this was in-fucking-cred-i-ble and i am MAD at myself that it took me so long to finally read this damn thing. don’t be stupid like me, kids! GET TO IT!

i can’t thank you enough for writing this, max. i learned a lot about myself in the chapters of this series, and i have no doubt i will be revisiting this couple many times over - tbh, i miss them already 🥲💜

[hesperantha]

M - I’m struggling to find the words to respond to this and have been for a while. Knowing that this story and these characters resonated with you means so much to me. They’re very dear to me and I miss them too.

I especially want to thank you for acknowledging the queerness of this story. It’s not necessarily front and center, but is such an important piece of it anyway. I have my own head-canon about what identifiers both of them might use and how they might need to reevaluate those, both together and separately, but that at the end of the day it might not really matter.

They might need to take another trip eventually, just to see some of the major sights they missed.

⛰️

“How the fuck did we miss the Grand Canyon?” Yoongi asks as he peers at the map in front of him.

“I dunno,” you answer. “It’s not like it’s a great big giant crack…” you hold back a giggle at the last word, determined not to let the laughter slip out. He’ll judge you for it, you just know it. Here you are, a grown-ass adult, tittering over the word ‘crack’.

“Anyway, they say the South Rim has the best views so let’s hit that.”

He’s got his Adventurer Gear on today, which you know means something specific is planned. There will be no idle wandering, no dithering about which way to go. No, today Yoongi has a plan, a schedule, and a purpose. God help you if you distract him from it.

“Can we get breakfast burritos on the way?” you ask. “And coffee. By which I actually mean a frozen, caramel-drizzled, cookie-topped dessert with a hint of coffee flavor. And whipped cream on top.”

“Mm,” says Yoongi. He doesn’t look up from the map, but reaches to grab his reading glasses from where they should be stowed in his front pocket. They aren’t there. They haven’t been there since Tempe. “Wombat balls,” he grumbles softly, shaking the creases back into the map and folding it closed.

mixtape (m)

pairing: min yoongi x reader 

genre: smut, fluff, comedy / college, podcast personality au

word count: 15,610

description: Two mystery students from your college run the podcast dubbed ‘mixtape.’ It’s become a sort of phenomenon around campus, listened to by almost everyone. In their most recent episode they discussed various study methods… One of them being oh so tempting.

“This week’s topic is—” Sugar started, of course only to be swiftly interrupted by the second half of the two-man show podcast that had sort of gone viral around your college campus.

But regardless of being cut short, the metallic nature of his voice still managed to worm its way directly into your chest, where it festered into something so captivating that you couldn’t help but sigh. It was cool to the touch as the syllables of his chosen words sent an intrusion of goosebumps along your arms and thighs. It had a certain gravel, a deepness that you could sometimes feel in the pit of your belly if you listened to him long enough with your eyes closed. However, more times than not, the grit would be severed with a vibrant laugh that rang so sweetly that you could feel it clamoring around your heart with giddiness on its heels.

“—Studying! So sexy, right?” Jay interjected mid-sentence, something that anyone who listened to their weekly episodes would quickly learn is a norm.

However, there were times of course where Sugar was allowed the courtesy of going off on long tangents without his friend’s interruption, and in those moments his voice was hypnotic, if you had to put it simply. It tugged you beneath the current of concentration until you were pressing the volume button on your phone to raise his vocals higher. The small hitch of his breath, or exhale against the mic when he would sigh due to the topic at hand, they made you lean in closer to the invisible man on the other side of the pre-recorded audio that filtered through your headphones.
