I just realized everyone in Goo's gang (Goo, Taejin, Logan, Samuel, and Gitae) all used to have more hot-headed/violent/expressive personalities and became more professional with time.
YALL ARE SO SMART WTF MY HALF ASSED ANALYSIS DIDNT EVEN GET TO THIS PART ISTG MY BRAIN DOESNT WORK LIKE IT DID IN HIGH SCHOOL ENGLISH CLASS ANYMORE
i’d like to think gun took comfort in the fact that goo was his “equal”. in goo, he hit two birds with one stone: he can fight him (and therefore be “loved”, presumably by the people he works for and with, like charles choi) while also having someone who was there for him, someone that would stick around for a while.
so when he managed to take goo down a few chapters ago, i imagine that sense of comfort shattered. and with charles choi jumping off the roof, everything just exploded in his face. with nothing else to really hang onto, he accepted the consequences with grace.
i’d also like to be delusional for a sec and think that maybe this is also the reason he pushes daniel away. he knows daniel is strong. he’s gun’s masterpiece, for god’s sake. but gun knows that right now, daniel’s not stronger than him. even if he does become his equal, gun is worried that his insatiable quest for strength will eventually win out and ruin daniel too. gun’s really good at ruining the things he loves, and the best thing he can really do at this moment is to leave.
i joke about gun being a hardcore masochist, but the only way for him to really feel safe in any relationship, is if they were stronger than him. maybe he’ll only ever feel at complete peace in the last few moments of his life, looking up at the person who managed to quell the raging beast in him, with death and complete utter defeat.
GUN'S BACKSTORY ACTUALLY BROKE ME WTF AND WE'RE NOT EVEN DONE.
child gun is already having a crisis and its just so depressing LIKE RAISING A CHILD LIKE THAT IS SO SAD
so this is his starting motivation then, WHICH I HONESTLY THINK GOT LOST ALONG THE WAY SOMEWHERE BC NOW HE JUST FINDS FIGHTING FUN (i think) AND ITS LIKE HIS ONLY PURPOSE IN LIFE BC HE WAS CONDITIONED TO BELIEVE THAT IT WAS WHY IS THIS SO DEPRESSINGG. HE JUST WANTED TO BE LOVED😭😭😭
this chapter is rlly interesting tho bc it rlly shows us how he became the way he was and rlly just lays out all of his motivations for us BC HE WAS TAUGHT THAT THE ONLY WAY ANYONE COULD EVER LOVE HIM WAS IF HE BASICALLY ABUSED THEM. LIKE ABUSE IS LITERALLY HIS LOVE LANGUAGE. ig its basically a different set of morals bc we get taught that fighting is bad BUT HE GOT TAUGHT THE OPPOSITE. and like ppl ship him with goo right and like, to set the record straight I SUPPORT I SUPPORT - BUT LIKE someone needs to fix him first bc THEY BOTH FIGHT A LOT FOR DIFFERENT REASONS (i think) AND GOO IS ONLY GONNA ENABLE HIS WARPED SENSE OF THE WORLD BC GOO ISNT RLLY OKAY EITHER BUT THEN AGAIN THATS WHAT MAKES THEM GOOD FOR EACH OTHER <3333 life lessons. in conclusion WE NEED GOO BACKSTORY AND GUN NEEDS INTENSIVE INTENSIVE THERAPY
YALL SEE THIS ZESTY FACE AND EXPECT US TO BELIEVE THAT HE DOESNT LIKE MEN??? I WAS SO TAKEN ABACK WHEN I SAW THIS PANEL I WAS LIKE UMM I WOULDVE BELIEVED IT MORE IF HE DIDNT SAY IT. guys hes LITERALLY SO ZESTY. AND AND AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON CHAPTER 479 LIKE you see that chapter, you see this HE DEFINITELY LIKES MEN. AND THAT ONE FIGHT WITH DANIEL WHERE HE SAID IT WAS 'BETTER THAN A NIGHT WITH ANY WOMAN' OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT I FORGOT THE EXACT QUOTE. IS THAT NOT SO GAY. IS HE NOT SO GAY.
