Admin Jae:

How have I never recced this fic before???! I’ve read this fic so many time yet I still end up crying as if it were my first. I love this fic soooo much, you guys don’t understand. The amount of scenery the author paints with just words is seriously breathtaking! I love how even though Junmyeon has aged without Yifan by his side the amount of love he has for him never changed and that is vividly shown by how they interact when they meet again. The author did an amazing job at capturing their emotions for one another and making their personalities just flow so well together, both in the future and past. I really love reading this fic (it’s on my fav fic list tbh), so I hope you guys like it as much as I do.

Enjoy!

It’s absolutely adorable!! I really like how the flow of the story progresses as you read and of course the fic is written very nicely. I’m a big time sucker for domestic!au stories so naturally it got my attention! I love how you can practically feel the love that’s blooming as you reach the ending!! or maybe that’s just my spazzing over the cuteness that is this fic

[ot12-ficrecs]

I was a sucker then and I’m still a sucker now. Domestic!AU makes me very happy.

Rating: R

Word Count: 5.4K

Summary: Yifan is not the person he seems to be.

Admin Jae:

Its been a while since I’ve read a well written Mafia!AU along with amazing action scenes! I’m always very astounded by authors who manage to write out their action so well since most find it difficult. I’m interested to hear Yixing’s side as well since not much is said. The ending and Jongin are both just so endearing.

This fic has been recced before for an ask but never as a stand alone. I think its safe to say it deserves a post on its own. Like I’ve said many times before, curledupkitten never fails to deliver! The humor in this fic is great and I love the characterization given to the members. A great read indeed!
