Also, in regards to the preface. Do you guys have theories for what the mystery behind this all might be?
171. NOW WE GOTTO NAMJOON. another slight tw. Just some heavier olive , nothing graphic or too triggering. Talks of anxiety and depression and death
162. TW warning goes till end of update
163.
164. Notice: In the begging I put Namjoon as being in psychology and music but i decided to change it to business to better go with the story.
165. Last one for tonight! TABYOW signing off.
Okay so summary for texts: Yoongi reunites with his brother and they both apologize for past trauma, they catch up and decided to start over and be brothers again.
Namjoon TW: Jimin goes to Namjoons house and they talk about the possibility of souls seeing connected. Then they talk a bit about Namjoons dad and Jimin suggests he tried therapy, which he denies. Then they fall asleep.
What do you guys think of a fun little segment where you get to ask the characters questions (in the universe of this au of course)? Could be something fun! It also depends on how many people are reading

552. Last one for today
Thanks to @⚡️s⁷🥕 for beta reading for me, an absolute life saver! Come and talk to me! curiouscat.qa/Kallll_
As usual! A poll to end! All the boys are going to go on an adventure soon, but meanwhile, do you think Seokjin already knew?
Also just a tiny authors note: school for me starts next Tuesday so while I’ve been able to update pretty frequently (2 times a week) we’ll probably be moving to a less frequent schedule scud college is hard As always thank you for reading and look forward to the next update
Oh you know what. I was a total dummie and forgot to add a summary for that trigger warning! Basically Joon shuts himself inside for a couple days and no one can reach him until Jin is finally able to get into his apartment and finds Joon pretty much shut down out of panic+
And he helps him calm down. And then Namjoon, being somewhat panicked tells Jin about his dad and ends up telling him about the body switching thing as well, which Jin take in stride since there more important things (like getting Namjoon calm) to worry about
They then make plans to go see joons dad that weekend, since Namjoon wants to get it over with. Jin tells him he’ll take care of planning and he promises they will all go with him as support. Then they go to bed for the night uwu.
553. HIIIIIIII BABIES

Okay everyone! A big long update to compensate for the slower schedule! I’m excited for the next few updates! There are things that are going to be revealed, things that are going to continue to be foreshadowed, just lots of stuff! How you enjoyed! curiouscat.qa/Kallll_
Ending poll: Jung Aera, what do we think of her?
Oh! I also wanted to say don’t loose hope! This is a long ass slow burn but something really big is going to happen soon for one of our main couples! I mean, big things for both of them but there’s gonna be something ESPECIALLY BIG in a couple more updates!

Okay wow guys! We are almost at 600 that’s crazy! Next time we have Namjoon’s confrontation with his dad, a heavy and emotional update (not like any of my updates ARENT heavy in some way) and then we will get to brighter happier times soon I promise curiouscat.qa/Kallll_
Poll time! Tell me how you’re doing
Helllooooo everyone! Okay first things first, this is a very heavy update. There’s going to be a few warnings: TW // mentions of death
CW // descriptions of death scene
CW // mourning
No, that being said this is a very impetus to update and I will try and leave a nice summary+
BUT if you want a more detailed idea of things that happened then just DM me and we can chat.
599. It’s confrontation time YALL. Hold on to your britches
600. Nostalgia

610. AAAAND back
611. Promise
612. Her
613.
614. CW death scene
615. Last one today!
Okay: summary time. Basically Joon confronts his dad and his dad tells him the story of how he met his mom, who was best friends with Hobis mom, through him switching bodies with Hobi’s mom. Aera brought her sister into it all and Ji-Tae (joons dad) convinced bora+
To find out if they were soulmates or not. Bora does it but it comes at a price. Many years later Ji-Tae, Bora, and Aera all find out the price is Minji’s (joons moms) life. That why his dad shut him out, he couldn’t face him knowing he had made the decision that led to her death
Okay everyone! A big update! Hope you all enjoyed! My cc is in my bio if you want to talk! For now... an ending poll. I’m going to ask this again, which couple do you think is gonna get their crap together first?
616. HOLA SO THE AFTERMATH COMMENCES
617. Good momma
618. Soulmates
619. Me?

625. Little TW starting next post. As usual, summary after
626. CW // mentions of drug use
627. CW continues (Yall better come through with those reactions and QRTs on this whole update or it’s on SIGHT )
628. K CW ends after the first photo. Second is clear.
K summary real quick, Yoongis ex boyfriend was a douche and got him into drugs while also using him to get to Yoongis older brother Beom. Then he tried to kiss Beom and dropped Yoongi and poor Yoongi’s had it rough for a while.

861. HERE WE ARE
862. Dreamy
863.
864. The woman
OKY SHOULD HAVE PUT THIS BEFORE I STAFTED UPDATING BUT
CW/TW internalized homophobia, homophobia, gun violence, death
All of these things are described very vaguely but they are still there!
865. You know it’s okay?
866. Everyday
867. Ooooh no
868. No way, right?
869. I know!
870. Guys this was so heartbreaking to write
871. Back to the present
872. My heart
873.
874. The Vice prezzy for the win
875. Euphoria~
876.
877. Do it, you won’t
878.
879. Should have mentioned that the CW/TW ended at 871! Summary at the end.
Back into another short flashback that makes my heart ache
880. Aaaand the last big reveal of the fic!
Okay CW/TW summary: jimin and jungkook and Tae have a flashback of a part life where Jimin and Jungkook were assigned soulmates and their agent was The Vice President (except she wasn’t the Vice President back then). Tae starts to fall for them, a red string appears, Vice prezzy+
Notices and has to decide on whether or not to report the triad to the agency since they do NOT support triads. She gets closer to Tae and sees how much he likes them and comes to realize that the agency rules are bull crap and decides to hide Tae from the agency.
The townspeople find out the jimin, a famous singer/performer, is gay and well… they shoot him. Tae and Jungkook find him and the Vice President appears and offers Tae a deal. His life for Jimins. The agency ended up finding out about Tae and wanted her to get rid of him
But now she can offer him to be an agent and give jimin and jk a chance in another life while also fulfilling the agency’s wish to take Tae out of the equation. He accepts.
Okay that’s it for today! Wow this is crazy, can’t believe we are so close to THE end. The epilogue will be out soon and it will be the last update on TABYOW keep an eye on my tweets for exactly when it will be uploaded. curiouscat.qa/Kallll_
I hope you are able to look back and go “omg there were so many clues” both about vminkook and mingi (more Vminkook tho). Tell me, was the vminkook backstory what you might have expected it to be?
Okay as a preface for this update just know lots of time jumps are happening. The events of this update take place over years into the future, and there is a time just between each POV shift (namjoon and yoongi)
881. They are v sweet you guys.
882. I had to give you guys lots of fluff here because we didn’t get much of a chance for namjin fluff fluff during the rest of the story
883.
884.
885. Here we goooo
886. Ngl I was crying a little writing this.
887.
889. I JUST REALIZED THAT I FORGOT TO KEEP GOING
890. POV switch!
