people don’t talk about ji-yeong enough i fear
she was a child forced to succumb to her father’s physical and sexual abuse, as well as likely witness her mother being abused by her disgusting father. had to witness said mother get stabbed by said father.
then, after killing her father (rightfully so), ji-yeong wasn’t given a second chance at life — she was immediately incarcerated until being released and later sent into the games by the recruiter.
she quite literally had nothing to live for. the only person she could have lived for was forced to kill her due to the games.
honestly, she had one of the saddest stories in my opinion. she wasn’t even given a chance to live happily.
every girl in the world is the prettiest girl in the world no i will not be elaborating
who says this fandom is dying, I’ll fucking fight them
the fandom not being a hot trending topic on mainstream socials doesn’t mean things are dying out, it means they’re settled and consistent in between seasons
anyway, I’m not going anywhere
I don't know if it's just me, but I find it annoying when people say squid game fandom is dying just because the show isn't a newish trend on social media anymore. It's far from being dead fandom when there's a constant stream of new content from fans every day. My favourite tv show finished ten years ago, but it's still has thriving fandom behind it. The show itself is coming back in a couple of months, so there's no need to act like dead and gone. A part of me can't wait till the show is over, so all the trend chasers leave it alone, and so the fans can enjoy it without someone ( just watched the show for the games) trying police our fun. I just want to be able to enjoy mixing up canon ships without someone throwing tantrum because it isn't based in the show.
It's a bit of a rant post, but I just want to get off my chest and see what others think of this.
less than an hour later I have just read over the outline for my ji-yeong fic and am now sat at my desk sniffling and blinking back tears
I am weirdly glad that, based on recent posts I’ve been seeing, I am not the only one who has moments of sobbing incoherently at my fav ship
ok I have healed myself by writing the CUTEST little jibyeok moment and I’m trying not to like. squeal with happiness in the middle of this library
me: meant to be getting ready to go to the big library to collect a book and then do some jibyeok fic work. the happy nice one
also me: what if I got sidetracked, started editing a different fic on my phone, and then burst into tears about it because it’s an angst fic and my heart can never handle seeing jibyeok suffer (she says. writing jibyeok angst)
everytime I remember that lesbian couple that have a marble statue of the two of them embracing and sleeping on a bed together over where their graves will be because the artists didn’t believe they would be able to be married before they died, so what they couldn’t have in life they could have in death, I fucking breakdown
prologue and chapters 1 & 2 are being published simultaneously so the story gains some momentum before the weekly schedule starts, and there’s some content for readers to get stuck into :)
I just realised that to meet my planned publishing schedule for the upcoming sg serial fic I need to have the prologue and first two chapters finished four weeks from now, pretty much to the day (planned release date is every saturday) plus enough extra material written ahead so that I can stay on track
which means I need the jibyeok and ji-yeong fics done ASAP because I am not a quick writer
so fics will be coming soon!!!!
