still can’t believe santos and whitaker are roommates, like it’s a thing that’s actually going to happen and there will definitely be a scene where they call each other trinity and dennis. it feels like something a writer on ao3 would come up with but its actually a bunch of writers maximizing their joint tv vet realness.
they are on their way to kill some guy's dad.
the / in ship pairings is the wound btw
i am SICK AND TIRED of people saying that “sangihun is brother-coded/cousin-coded” or “sangihun is a direct parallel to hwang brothers and so shipping them is practically incest”
while HDH compares their relationship to that of a fraternal one, the key word there is COMPARES. nowhere does it state they are brothers. nowhere does it state they see each other as brothers. god forbid childhood friends fall in love i guess
this parallel is used to emphasize how strong their bond is. it is used as a comparison of sorts.
not to mention we literally see them have different moms?? is this not more proof.
“but you can see somebody as a sibling not by blood!!” okay. fair point. i do see some of my friends in more of a sibling manner. but THOSE THINGS CAN BE MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. one is not always entitled to see their childhood friends as siblings. there is nothing to imply they see each other this way though. especially not with all the freaky eyefucking oh my god.
“hyung”, as we all should know by now, is used between close males. that is in no way further proof. besides, not to pull the homophobia card but i am certain people would have less of that belief if one of them were a woman.
this isn’t about personal interpretations. i can’t stop you there. but PLEASE stop spreading misinformation like “they see each other as brothers”. that is an OPINIONATED INTERPRETATION, not a fact. especially since their dynamic, regardless of how you interpret it, is EXTREMELY important to the plot.
please for the love of god stop it. and STOP CALLING MY FELLOW SANGIHUN SHIPPERS INCESTUOUS.
xoxo, mama sangihun (i guess that’s me now?? 😭)
Absolutely obsessed with your santos and Whitaker headcanons please keep them coming! I’ve gone through all the fics on ao3 already lol
thank you! it's nearing the end of the school year for me, so unfortunately i'm too busy to make much fanfiction/art for them even though i dabble in both.
here's more headcanons, because i can't stop thinking about them:
santos has a major sweet tooth. once or twice a week, she buys herself an iced mocha and a slice of strawberry cake from this cafe that's en route to the hospital.
whitaker's bible has a small lamb embroidered onto the front. it's one of the two belongings he still has from nebraska. the other is a sweatshirt from the university he did his undergrad at.
she has to keep an eye on whitaker at all times when they visit the local asian market because he's too busy staring in awe to notice what's going on around him.
whitaker is very obsessed with banana sauce. he puts it on everything once he's tried it.
santos gave him buldak ramen without telling him how spicy it was once. it was funny for about a minute until she realized that this white boy really can't handle spicy food. he tries eating the whole thing because wasting food makes him feel guilty. santos stops him after 3-4 bites because this looks like actual, physical torture for the guy. she still makes fun of him after, of course. while handing him the whole milk jug.
santos gets way too into his stories about animal slaughter. one time he had to leave in the middle of talking about how he dissected a rat when he was first curious about studying medicine and the first thing she did when she saw him again was demand to hear the rest.
nothing more i want in the world rn than a looong outsider pov fic of the pitt crew each finding out that santos and whit are best friends. feed that shit to me slowly like grapes i cant stop thinking about them
do we share one mind, anon?
this is my favorite concept ever actually (as if my posts don't make that obvious). i'm going to gnaw on this for the next few hours if you don't mind.
i think sang-hun from karma/악연 is just the sangihun lovechild
has dennis seen the sea before. i dont think he has, especially coming from a landlocked state like nebraska. pennsylvania doesn't have a border that connects to the ocean. the only thing close is the shoreline on lake erie (correct me if im wrong). has he ever experienced the sandy shores of the beach, the call of seagulls circling overhead, the feeling of waves crashing against your legs and it's freezing cold but you look forward and the blue against blue seems to stretch on forever. it's a different sort of vastness from the corn fields he grew up in. its nothing like the mesmerizing, rippling digital blues he saw every night on the old tv they were supposed to throw out that he and his brothers snuck into their "secret" treehouse. it's breathtaking. and maybe he'll sit on one of those driftwood logs in cargo shorts soaked to the bone and just breathe, the salty sea air refreshingly unfamiliar. maybe make a sandcastle for the first time. dig up a giant hole in the ground with trinity and fill it up with sea water. and maybe when he looks at her when she laughs as he trips and falls face first into the water at some point, he'll see his older brother's face. think to himself, 'yeah, they'd love it here'.
idk man. growing up in california made me realize just how lucky i am to be able to experience such a variety of settings all in one state. and how it must feel for people well into their teenage or adult years to experience the beauty of the ocean for the first time.
Wish they could find happiness instead of [redacted]
hey, santos nation, what sport(s) do we think she played (since she's canonically a former athlete)?
