( stumble across the dusty midnight tile / just to see that 3 AM sparkle in your eye )

Title: forever, always
Author: traumerei__x
Word count: 1050
Concrit?: please. D: this is awful, i want to know if there's any way to salvage it, or if it's a lost cause.
Pairing: past-jaejoong/changmin, and possibly pre-, if you're optimistic (i'm really not)
Rating: pg-13
Summary: i find it hard to tell you, i find it hard to take / when people run in circles, it's a very mad world: Changmin publishes an autobiography. Jaejoong learns he didn't know him as well as he thought.
AN: i think it's fairly straightforward— however, am terribly sorry if it only makes sense to me ._. hasn't been beta'd, has only been read through twice. if there are any spelling/grammar errors, please do not hesitate to point them out :) summary/cut text from Mad World by Tears for Fears. this is kind of angsty. mentions a somewhat OOC OCD Changmin. the end is kind of fluffy. bits near the end inspired by Evergreen.

Concrit?: yes, please :)
Pairing: none, really.
Rating: G
Summary: A late-night rendezvous in the kitchen. Changmin takes something from Jaejoong that, in hindsight, he probably shouldn't have. (but it was so worth it)
Author's Notes: um, crack. kinda experimental. title from Yellowcake by Kaki King.


( deliciously clandestine )

Title: Arbitrary

Rating: G
Summary: Based on random choice or personal whim.

Title: A Moment of Clarity
Author: traumerei__x
Word count: 1710
Concrit?: Yes please. Feel free to be brutal, if you're so inclined.
Pairing: JaeMin
Rating: PG-15; Nothing too graphic, but it might be safe to assume this isn't appropriate for at work! in school! or around small children!reading.
Summary: Why do things that the matter most never end up being our choice?
Author's Notes: Um. I started this story with the second-to-last paragraph, and sort of.. built backwards from there. This came out weird, even for me. I'm still not sure if I like it (and if I do, why.) Written while listening to Ginny Owens' If You Want Me To on repeat, which would explain the schmoop in the end, and possibly the overall weirdness.

Much thanks to thexholyxdark for an awesomely quick beta-job. ♥

...and will be cross-posted to 0shutupandsmile shortly.



( part of me won't agree / because i don't know if it's for sure / suddenly, suddenly, i don't feel so insecure )
