Pairing(s): Jongdae/Jongin, side Baekhyun/Kyungsoo and Sehun/Yixing
Rating: PG-13
Length: 13.3k
Warning(s): cursing and suggestive language, implied sexual scenes, past members as characters
Summary: Jongdae is severely confused as to why, in all of their encounters, Jongin always ends up abruptly teleporting somewhere else.

Author's Note: To the prompter, this ended up being a lot more complicated than the initial plan, but the prompt is a brilliant one and I hope that this is to your liking. To the mods, a huge, huge thank you for being endlessly patient and considerate with me. To my wonderful beta and friend W, just know that you’re a great person and I’m always thankful.

this was sooooo cute!!
i loved cute awkward, shy and scared jongin that teleported away whenever he saw jongdae. and jongdae's persistence in finding out what it was that jongin wanted to talk about.
i think my favorite thing though was that everyone knew what was happening except jongdae and it was great that sehun and kyungsoo were straightforward about it. i loved that jongin didn't get mad at them for doing it

i really enjoyed the fic ^^

I honestly cannot express how much I love this ficcccc first of all shoutout to those psycholgical explanations for Jongin's teleportation like I don't know why but luhan talking all science-ey is 10/10 second of all the side pairing???????? Baeksoo???? Lowkey sexing???? My loves???? Third of all this!! Concept!! This is just so adorable with Jongin getting all flustered and nervous around Jongdae and it's just so relatable. I love how you worded his shock and general anxiety was made it so much more real I love the way you write. They're such a cute match, he and jongdae, and I think their dynamic just adds so much more to this story (also I'm crying at Kyungsoo's constant questioning about why he likes jongdae I'm dead). Can't believe 2 of Jongdae's clothes had to be sacrificed for them to get together but I can honestly say I was screaming at the end thank you so much for this absolutely adorable fic I'm in love

DUDE, your explanation of the elemental piece of powers is amazing. I love that little nugget about this world. I want to know more. I want to attend this college


Kaichen was so so very sweet. Kudos to Sesoo. And I just adore your Zitao.

Jongin is upset. Upset and confused and lying pathetically on Zitao’s couch as Zitao pats him on the head sympathetically and offers him some of the cold, leftover pizza from the fridge. Everyone needs a Zitao T T

Jongin wants to scream. Jongin does scream. “That’s not the point! It’s not why I like him or why it’s him.” T T poor baby

Jongin is worth more than a sachet of hot chocolate mix. True dat.

SEHUN SEHUN SEHUN! OH SEHUN!

“His heart, Kyungsoo,” clarifies Zitao kindly from Jongin’s other side. “His heart was beating at thrice the normal rate. In simple human words, he’s so in love it’s disgusting.”
Aww, Tao.

“He’s... a weird choice to fall in love with.” “Baekhyun is your boyfriend,” Jongin counters, staring at Kyungsoo calmly, as Kyungsoo stares back at him and Zitao sips at his coke tranquilly. My love for Tao grows.
