Title: the art of war
rating: pg (for mild language)
length: 2,505 words
summary: kyungsoo has always had a competitive streak but the tall boy with the silver hair brings everything to a whole other level.
warnings: bodies flying through the air? and Kyungsoo dislikes tall people on principle
notes: My love and thanks to carpesoo for inviting me to be a part of this wonderful project! This fic is a gift to you and I hope you’ll like it at least a little ❤ A victorious fistbump to my collab partner, waffletopkai for creating the truly precious fan art that inspired this fic!


The stranger always manages to cross the road just before the light turns red, while Kyungsoo has to stand there, trapped, watching as the young man’s jean-clad legs take him and his artfully tousled silver hair further and further away.

WHAT THE . I don't wanna spoil it so my comments under the cut thingy. I ADORE your writing. Please don't mind my long comment below.


“Okay—” The look Junmyeon gives him is one that you might give a potentially dangerous animal. —Kyungsoo is so feisty to a mostly gentleman like Junmyeon. Eat your orgnaic sandiwch and drink the freezly squeezed juice Soo! Stop being mean to Junmyeon. But I too, share Kyungsoo’s trouble with milk.


… he’s even taller than Namsan, for the love of fuck. LMAOOO. I almost fell off my bed laughing.



He’s being an idiot but Kyungsoo can’t help feeling SMUG that he’s going to beat Namsan for the first time this semester, what the hell! —You will not believe how easily this happens. I cannot lie, I would also feel smug beating someone I noticed was always going in the same direction as I would navigate my own campus. I share in his slightly misplaced pride, go Soo! Go! Beat Namsan!



“I’ve been winning for two months. Can’t stop now! Do try to have a good day!” —OMMMGGGGG. SEHUN KNEW. HE KNEW. OMGNWODIA+WIDHOAH!!! HE KNEW. THE WHOLE TIME?



His foe’s overconfidence will be the cause of his downfall. He will take his quarry down. YES YES YES GO KYUNGSOO. I love your entire sequence building up to this, it has all the right bit of punch and comedy and TIMING. Like wow!



“Who are you and why did you attack me,” the boy asks as he turns around to face Kyungsoo. “Oh. It’s you.” —Why is he so polite sounding? I almost wanna apologize on behalf of Soo.

He is not making any sense at all and Kyungsoo has always prided himself on having a highly proficient mastery of the Korean Language. XD

“Fine, I’ll buy you coffee then. Stop twisting my arm, already.” LOL I wonder how this will go down in the future, clearly Sehun was too chicken to ask Soo out and Kyungsoo just had to umm tackle him down…idk.

I love this. This was fun and light and everything I needed to help me feel better (nursing a high fever)

Thanks for sharing!
