A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
some things you might want to make sure you're okay with !!
━ SPOILERS + RATING
there are a few explicit spoilers for orv if you haven't finished the novel or you are a webtoon reader. that being said, i also do mention particular themes from orv that might fall short if you haven't yet finished the full light novel, but it should not impact your overall understanding on this fic. maybe.
as for the ratings and the archive warnings, i assure you that the no archive warnings apply, and the teen & up audience is perfectly capable to tackle the intricacies of jd here. or the crack. not sure if you have to have a proper mentality for that or not.
━ INFIDELITY
while the vague suggestion is definitely there, there will be no showcase of infidelity, nor will it happen. i wrote with the intention of yjh falling out of love, not him seeking one out while still pursuing a relationship with lsh.
━ SEXUAL CONTENT
any portrayal of sexual content will stay implicit, but heavy implications of something i cannot divulge into (though i would definitely write a 10k paper on it) will be revealed little by little. i precariously built jd as jenga tower on a singular block of sexual intimacy with each other as the means to an end. and it definitely fell. many. many times. but do with that what you will, and with whatever fits in your personal understanding on your limits.
━ DOMESTIC ABUSE
as a forewarning, mentions of domestic violence and scenes that are a nod to kdj's childhood are fictionalized. i do not expect to depict or represent it as it would be in reality, and again, please feel free to do with this information what you will regarding your own comfort levels.
━ ABOUT SETTING INTERPRETATION
although this is set in korea, please be careful with the setting ! i didn’t mean for it to resemble korea too much, but tell me if i did something wrong and or appropriated korean culture. i’ll fix it as soon as i can, just hit me up with a dm.
━ OVERALL NOTE
this is incredibly self-indulgent and i have so much love for salaryman kdj, but i love surgeon kdj that plays girl's generation in the operating room more. i digress. the main purpose of this last note is to reiterate that i have zero knowledge on a hospital setting, so any representation of that is purely surface google-researched and by webmd. and inaccurate accounts from grey's anatomy. i'm talking about that one anatomy book in the sales section of barnes & noble, obviously.
this page will definitely be expanded on once i actually know what i'm doing. much love <3
A LITTLE SOMETHING TO LISTEN TO
me and my husband mitski
and i am the idiot with the painted face
in the corner, taking up space but when he walks in, i am loved, i am loved.
wyd now? sadie jean
they're never gonna be like you, though. you set the bar above the moon, so.
remember that night? sara keys
i was better and didn't have to try
not to think of you, 'til you reached out and said, "remember that night?"
