Han Yoojin: the best way to tame beasts - and people! ;) - is through food!

Sung Hyunjae, serving him eggs: that's really clever, Han Yoojin-gun

Han Yoojin: I can surely bond with Chief Taewon if we have a few meals together

Sung Hyunjae, serving him dessert: how brilliant ^^

Han Yoojin: wow this is really good, maybe you're not completely terrible

Sung Hyunjae: ^^

hi again

Holy Trinity and the flags I assigned them (for fun)

Some spoilers for SCTIR though.

Cale Henituse: red flag 🚩

Reasons: red is his iconic color; red hair, reddish-brown eyes, red blood that he coughs when he says he's fine, red flag to his enemies but the best greenest flag to his families and allies ❤️

Kim Dokja: death flag 🏴 💀

Reasons: i would rather call it the D- flag for these Dokja's associations: depression, death and (craving for YJH's) dick but death flag is more of his calling. he dooms himself. He is a tragedy in the making.

It could have been a rainbow flag but it was buried deep underneath and because gay sex alone could not save Dokja, rest in pieces you wonderful, suicidal squid 🦑 😈

Han Yoojin: rainbow flag 🏳️‍🌈

Reasons: his favorite color is hot pink, like sweet food but insists he isn't, saying he only views a certain Mr. Sung as useful skill but wanting and successful changing their dynamics from skill-item to business partners (then to child-raising partner). They have role-play prince and princess.

Act like a jealous girlfriend when that same man ghosting him and decides to give his partner a countdown until he blows up his place (and he follows through with the threat). Has a son with his partner that he carries for months near his heart. Canonically wears rose-pattern veil to hide his face and corset when going undercover.

Dumping wine over each other's head. Lighting each other's cigarette through a burning rose.

Crashing Hyunjae's (forced) wedding with another woman.

Wearing cheongsam.

Laying on bed with both Hyunjae and Taewon while wondering what terms to write for his will.

Yoojin cannot keep his eyes away from Taewon's chest. Many men are obsessed with Yoojin, his brother included. A Japanese S rank hunter even convinced Yoojin is his mother reincarnated.

He also says Hyunjae is his type directly to the man's face.

Yoojin promises to go on an aquarium date with Hyunjae and will buy ice cream for him (geunseo-nim please im begging you let them go on that date please 🙏)

DOMESTIC JINJAE DOMESTIC JINJAE DOMESTIC JINJAE DOMESTIC JINJAE DOMESTIC JINJAE

I like how there is like, a whopping zero of HYJ's children who approved of SHJ except for like... maybe chirpie...

Sorry for the jarring difference in the artstyle, I worked on this over a period of time with varying degrees of motivation

The shoujo manga-esque style on the kissing panel is definitely on purpose tho

Chapter 193:

not the haeyeon staff instructing yoojin so much on how to behave in a meeting with hyunjae and how he should arrive early and wait for him because he's lower ranked and younger blah blah AND YOOJIN HIMSELF AGREEING because "true how can a high school dropout consider himself at the same level as a chairman of a company"

AND THEN HE SHOWS UP TWENTY MINUTES EARLY FOR THE MEETING TO FIND HYUNJAE HAVING BOOKED THE ENTIRE HOTEL AND ALREADY WAITING FOR HIM??!?

HE'S EVEN EARLIER???? WHEN HAEYEON STAFF EXPLICITLY MENTIONED THAT HE NEVER SHOWS UP BEFORE THE PRECISE TIME???

THE BOYZ ‘NECTAR’ ✧ Relay Dance

[lurasposts]

do we remember the special episode in novel when they're in Japan, swimming in the hotel pool and Yoojin said that he couldn’t swim but Yerim and Yoohyun insisted to help teach him?

and after that Noah brought him caffe latte but without whip cream or additional sweetness and Yoojin decidedly thinking the liked the one Hyeonje gave him after the negotiation with Japanese guild better? even though Yoojin didn’t ask for whip cream and complained that it was "too sweet" but somehow Hyeonje knew better than him that he did like sweets.

then he smiled at Yoojin at the pool, knowing he didn't quite like the caffe latte brought by Noah because it was too bitter.

and I'm thinking if Hyeonje analyzed it through the desserts Yoojin selected when they first met at Seseong Guild's rooftop?

like Yoojin didn't say it, but he chose the sweeter cakes and biscuits.. and so Hyeonje wrote it on his mental note which flavors Yoojin like/dislike even when Yoojin didn't realize it himself.

God these bitches are so married

I am here to gush on Sung Hyunje again bc i just love how he seemed like the typical rich and cool and obsessive ml lead but turns out he is ALL of that BUT ALSO he’s an apron wearing housewife who loves coming up with a bunch of bullshit and shows no interest in ppl outside of their abilities (definitely a virgin) and the moment he falls in love he gives a wholesome fluffy earnest honest love where he is even willing to be the one to let go to save that person and he’s so mature about it yet so innocent at the same time and he will kill your enemies for you

One of my favourite things about the end of The S-Classes That I Raised novel (major spoilers ahead),

is the realisation that the reason why Yoojin and Hyunjae's relationship looks so much like a love story at times is because it actually, honestly is.

Like, we know that sctir is a novel about love since the beginning, that's not surprising. Yoojin's capability for loving monsters (both literal monsters and the human kind) and the power of that love is at the centre of the plot.

But by the time you get to the end, you realise - and the author confirms this themselves in their final Note - that Yoojin's relationship and love for 2 specific people was the true core of the story, and what allows him to save the world in the end:

One is, of course, Yoohyun.

And that love is absolute; you cannot say that it's inevitable, cause we know Yoojin had to make a choice when he was a child between Yoohyun and his parents, and he almost chose his parents, but from the moment he decided to love Yoohyun onward, then it was unconditional and eternal. It's the love of a brother, but also the love of a parent and a caretaker.

And the other person is Sung Hyunjae.

And that love is not unconditional nor inevitable or absolute at all. It's not something that can be taken for granted. We actually see, because of how it ended between them before the regression, and thanks to the White Bird's power of seeing possible futures, that there were so many timelines where Yoojin and Hyunjae would have never come to care about each other fully (tho they are always at least somewhat interested in each other, because their personalities are actually really compatible).

But the White Bird also sees that the only possible future where the world is saved is the one where they love and hold on to each other. And that is how the story goes!

So, just like a romance novel, the necessary end is the one where they both love each other and accept that love. And it's not easy to get there! It's a slow burn.

From meeting to getting to know each other, appreciating each other's skills and intelligence, finding out they have fun together but still not trusting each other, to working on building that trust.

They go from a strong but superficial mutual interest to actually caring about each other as people.

Yoojin has to go through the self-doubt of feeling inferior and fearing that Hyunjae will lose interest in him. Hyunjae has to learn to stop pushing Yoojin away because he doesn't know how to handle having someone he cares about so much, and also someone that cares about him, because nobody in the world (except in part Song Taewon) likes Sung Hyunjae as a person, he is only ever admired from afar.

And in the end, after going through ups and downs and a few "break-up arcs", they make it. They accept their own feelings and each other's feelings.

And that's when Yoojin makes the choice to use the power that the transcendents gave him at the very beginning of the novel, to save Hyunjae. Not the world. Not even Yoohyun! Just Sung Hyunjae!

Yeah, the whole "gather 50 S-Class people", the very thing that gives the novel its title. That is not a power that is used to save the world!! It was meant to, but Yoojin is "selfish", and he will always choose to save the people close to him first.

And being able to love someone so selfishly gives Yoojin the power to save the whole world, too. As a bonus! A reward. Just a side effect.

So yeah. Is it romantic love? No. Canonically, there's almost no romantic love in the whole novel.

But is it a love story?? Yeah. Absolutely it is.
