This week's word is...
MONEY

How to play: Find the word in any WIP and comment with the sentence containing it. Just the one, ideally! The less context, the more hilarious & interesting it can be.

Rules:
- All fandoms, all ships, all writers welcome
- Give a head's up for disturbing/distressing content
- If you share a sentence, please read some left by other writers and drop at least one person a comment. (If you leave the first comment, thanks for starting us off, and we hope you'll pop back around later!)

A note about interacting: Writers supporting each other is important to me. If you object to leaving comments for another writer, then we are not for you. If you repeatedly ignore this rule, you will lose community membership.

Yuri backed away. She looked at Kitty’s dress. “I knew the sleeves would be too long for you. I wish I had time to fix it before the party.”

Kitty tugged at her sleeve. The embroidered flowers started itching her skin after a while. Yuri knew her mannerisms in a way Min Ho didn’t. She saw how uncomfortable she looked wearing the dress, even from a distance. Min Ho didn’t notice from less than a meter away.

“You know how to alter clothes?” Kitty asked.

Yuri smiled. “I work for a fashion designer.”

“You got a job?”

“Well, I can’t use the Hans’ money anymore, can I?”

“Sun-jin would never let that happen, that bastard.”

A nice interaction. We have an unstated realization as Kitty compares how well Yuri and Min Ho know her, and also we have the underlying drama and conflict that led Yuri to have to find a job. Very interesting and intriguing.

You got it! Yuri's family got sued, which led her taking a side against her dad, essentially forcing her to get a job. A point of conflict is how Kitty compares the actions of Min Ho and Yuri throughout the fic, coming to the realization that Min Ho is ultimately not the right choice.

I'm a dressmaker and I love finding such pieces in stories I read!
You made me smile! Thank you :)

Aww! I'm glad! Yuri being an assistant to a up and coming fashion designer is a big point in the fic that is based in canon information available for season 3 of XO, Kitty (coming in Q1 2026, hopefully). Since the fic is an imagining of season 3/4, I hoped to stay faithful to that prediction.

this is a cute interaction, and it's sweet how Kitty notices Yuri knows her mannerisms better than Min Ho. Yuri seems to care a lot about Kitty <3

She does! This is a big part of Yuri's redemption arc in the fic. She learns to pay more attention to the people she cares about, Kitty especially (since she's the main love interest).
