Summary
It should scare Yoongi how quickly his blood begins to boil. It does not. It has been a long time since Yoongi has fallen in with his friends, an even longer time since he decided they were worth sticking beside. It was not an easy decision for someone like Yoongi to make, one he would not make for others. But with Seokjin, Yoongi does not have to think twice before taking off his gloves to face winter for him.
Series

wow...this fic was so breathtakingly pretty. i loved the ongoing motif of seasons, esp to show time passing, setting and surroundings changes (i think to that tree they sat under and how yoongi wonders how it would look like during summer — makes me think yoonjin would eventually return to that tree when summer comes and yoongi will get to see what it looks like!) , ever-changing moods, loneliness, warmth, gaining and losing love.
i really love the way yoonjin eventually came together, they’re a quiet-type of shy love. i think back to their early convo where jin, a year into his own relationship (that would eventually span another 5 years !!!), comforts yoongi and uses his own parents not meeting til they were in their 30s as an example — not only does it remind me of the real life yoonjin comforting convos they share but i ADORE the way it all came back around when they’re both in their 30s, jin with an unexpected breakup and yoongi returning the favor of comforting him this time. it’s a situation both of them never saw coming for sure and that’s what makes it hit a little harder for me while reading. funny how the universe works! what makes this fic really special is that if not for the relationship tag and maaaybe that early yoonjin convo, you almost wouldn’t be able to tell which relationship endgame it was gonna be until you near the end. and yet at the same time it feels so natural the way they eventually drift closer together. it’s all very /them/ 🥺 they are so so sweet. this line:
“If the members were here, Yoongi is certain they would be making fun of Seokjin by now. But despite his silly acts, Seokjin is a person, too. With a heart, with needs that go beyond playful chatter. In the middle of a cold winter, company makes all the difference.” — ohhhh my poor heart. they always know what each other needs.
lastly i wanted to say congratulations on this being your first bts fic on here!!! i loved how you wrote ot7’s dynamic and domestic lives together! a lot of fics will pair other members w each other but it’s remarkable the way the ot7 is so so strong even when every member has their own love lives outside the 7 of them. although i personally struggle to perceive joons wife being anybody but myself, i will gracefully concede bc joon’s super intimate wedding ceremony truly made me smile. yoongi’s “sister-in-law’s living room” — PLS. don’t make me cry. and this line:
“Relationships change, dividing and growing in opposite directions like branches in spring. Yoongi has known someday, he and his six friends would outgrow each other. Being an idol is a tiring job, being an idol in his thirties an entirely different type of hassle. Families divide through marriages and births, forming more solid lines between ‘theirs’ and ‘mine’.
Yoongi is finding, oddly, that it’s not the case for bangtan.” — gorgeous. just gorg. YOU HAD ME IN THE FIRST HALF. YOU REALLY DID. but iktfr! bangtan is an anomaly babes! cry about it! i know i am!
anyways !!! im super excited to see what other works you publish <3 thank for you sharing!
