༘⋆。 stirring the pot starters
a mix of arguments, tension, manipulation, gossiping, fighting, & general emotional messiness!
you  weren't  supposed  to  hear  that.
don't  look  at  me  like  i'm  the  only  one  lying.
want  to  tell  them,  or  should  i?
you  think  i  don't  know  what  you  did?
i've  hit  people  for  less.
oh,  i  thought  you  already  knew.
that's  funny,  you  didn't  say  that  last  night.
say  that  again.  i  dare  you.
you  wanna  talk  about  loyalty?
no  offense,  but  if  you're  the  last  to  know,  that's  on  you.
go  ahead  -  pretend  like  it  wasn't  your  idea!
they  deserve  to  know  the  truth.
you  didn't  hear  this  from  me,  but  -
oh,  so  now  you  care?
don't  flatter  yourself.  you  were  just  convenient.
you  crossed  a  line.
we  had  bets  on  how  long  it  would  last.
it's  not  even  a  secret  anymore.
you  don't  get  to  cry  about  it  now.
touch  me  again  and  see  what  happens.
say  it  again.  louder  this  time.
you  really  thought  nobody  would  find  out?
don't  act  so  innocent.
okay,  but  am  i  the  villain  for  laughing?
tell  me  who  else  knows.  right  now.
this  whole  time,  and  you  didn't  say  a  word?
don't  act  brave  now.
you're  really  gonna  do  this  here?
it  wasn't  supposed  to  get  this  far!
you  can't  rewrite  history.
oh,  i'd  never  say  it  to  their  faces.
it  was  supposed  to  stay  between  us.
we're  all  thinking  it,  i  just  said  it.
you're  not  as  untouchable  as  you  act.
do  you  even  feel  guilty?
they  warned  me  about  you.
go  ahead,  make  it  worse.
if  you  repeat  this,  i'll  deny  everything.
the  next  thing  out  of  your  mouth  better  be  an  apology.
you're  about  three  seconds  away  from  regretting  this.
you  keep  pushing,  and  i'll  push  you  back.
they're  going  to  find  out.
one  more  lie,  and  i  walk.
they're  lying  to  you.
you  need  to  back  off.  now.
you're  defending  them?  after  everything?
don't  try  to  hide  it.
tell  me,  was  i  just  a  placeholder?
you  really  think  sorry  fixes  this?
there's  nothing  left  to  say.
don't  act  like  you're  the  one  hurting.
i  don't  owe  you  any  explanation.
whatever  helps  you  sleep  at  night.
you  should've  seen  this  coming.
i  hope  it  was  worth  it.
i  told  the  truth.  just  not  all  of  it.
you'll  miss  me  before  i  miss  you.
smile.  you're  ruining  the  mood.
i'd  watch  that  tone  if  i  were  you.
it's  not  my  fault  you  believed  me.
you  have  such  a  talent  for  pretending  you're  innocent.
we  both  know  this  is  over.
i  never  said  i  was  a  good  person.
i  thought  you  were  different.

being so ooc and fr: i thought s2 was a massive westernised downgrade. i haven’t seen s3 yet but have been mostly spoiled and icl i wish they left it at s1. i’m not frustrated at gihun becoming morally grey—or worse, even, or the ending being ‘sad’, i’m frustrated at the complete 180 in writing, it became a parody of itself as soon as s2 released. i was betting 100% on gihun killing himself, but all of the things i’ve heard about it is just. laughable. honestly, especially his characterisation.
i will be taking most if not all of my character inspo from s1 and the first ep of s2 only. i don’t think they put enough effort in his writing to warrant me caring past that point. there are possible small details and interesting analysis points i may take from s3 as canon, but other than that i’m sticking to s1 and post-sg / s2ep1.
not to sound too serious, but gihun is a very meaningful character to me, so i want to write him to the best of my abilities. i’m very passionate about him and the show, but strictly the tone and social realism of s1. i’ll be slowly writing on here and putting out drabbles and calls, i want to bring gihun back to the depth he deserves rather than leaving him in shallow unsatisfactory waters that feel rushed.
additionally: this is not a go at any writers who love their s2 muses, i think you all do an amazing job with what little you’re given in terms of characterisation. i just personally am not a fan of s2 (and most likely s3), however, i am a fan of your guys’ analysis and writing pushing past surface level. far more than the actual writers did LOL.

not to preach sangihun but god. they had something going there. am i preaching to the choir, yes, but also sangwoo had totally kissed gi-hun whilst drunk & he had never let go since, always wondering if they should’ve ever become a thing. to finally voice how he felt after all those years of brushing hands & nervous whispers in college dorms. even if it risked further discrimination in the face of society, he calls every few days at the minuscule chance that he might pick up, that he can confess & feel the kind of adoration he’d never felt since. sangwoo choosing to disconnect due to his wedding being the last straw, with gi-hun never forgiving himself from trying to escape his love just to be ‘more accepted’. they make me ill.

SEND “⚡️” AND A QUESTION AND MY MUSE WILL BE FORCED TO ANSWER HONESTLY

a little ramble on gihun’s mentality after s1 — specifically his justice sensitivity versus his intensely violent intrusive thoughts. he cannot justify murder, even at the end of s2 when he knows if they don’t fight they will all die—he feels intense guilt alongside dissociative disconnect to his body, but both mental & physical torture ( ex. overly elaborate methods of torturing the frontman, pulling out finger nails, removing his tongue, cutting his achilles, etc. ) constantly plague his mind as a kind of repayment for what he went through & what others he loved experienced, & he’s then met with the constant dilemma that he’s no different from the guards, the vips, … the frontman. this being stated, he NEVER acts on the intense scenarios in his head, only resorting to quick violence when there is no other option / it has to be done to prevent the games. losing the last remainders of humanity he desperately keeps close to his heart keeps him up every night, but he is right in his rage, right ? he has to be right, he has to be moral, ignoring the deep-seeded fear he is no better than those that made him this way.

Tumblr media
tastes. black coffee. nicotine. sesame paste. fresh fried chicken. peach soju. gochujang. honey water for soothing colds. soy-sauce glazed eel on rice. iron.
smells. cheap cologne. gasoline. the damp after rainfall. sweat. cigarettes. old broken cars. musk. lemongrass. melting sugar. gunpowder.
sights. late night bustling markets. rows of traffic. city parks after school. train stations in the early blur of the morning. sunsets in winter. horse race tracks. barbed wire fences. overcast skies. fathers carrying daughters on their shoulders. oil stained piles of tattered clothing. out of business tailors. shooting ranges. stray cats lying out on the road. finding spare change on the street. flowers lay on unmarked graves.
sounds. clinking of glasses. buzzes of missed calls. faint karaoke from the other room. snow crunching under feet. sizzling pans. gun clicks. lighters. the faint flickering of a single flame. honking horns. muffled sobs through gritted teeth. galloping of horses. heavy rain pour. apologies said too late. birds taking flight. loud unabashed chewing. the cracking of bone.
sensations. burning tear trails. warmth from drinking alcohol. chest tightening. tracing fingers over scars. tension headaches. unexpected jolts of adrenaline. tightly wrapped bandages. the rush of smoking. jeering laughter so intense it hurts your chest. having your heart drop to your stomach. the despair of being alone. white hot anger. freeze response. longing nostalgia. deja-vu.
themes. haunted by the past. found & lost family. vengeance. martyrdom. survivors guilt. doesn’t know when to quit. doomed love. wrong place right time. i should hate you but i still love you. bound by morals. paranoia. wounds that never heal. don’t mistake kindness for weakness. lucky or unlucky ? self-destructive. finalist. questioning the good of humanity. naive to jaded.
