Just rewatched season 2 because I missed my shayla and I noticed something about when Gihun wakes up in the games.
Seonnyeo is the first player to talk to him when he wakes up and yeah she goes on a whole crazy ominous tirade about his destiny, but then she mentions that there are spirits around him.
And that theyre VENGEFUL spirits.
We all agree she was talking about the players that were there when he played, right? Okay, but hear me out.
I think the spirits she specifically senses are Saebyeok and/or Sangwoo. Their presences in the spirit realm are probably the STRONGEST in regards to her and her clairvoyance, not because theyre the only spirits who may be trapped there, (theyre most certainly not ffs 455 ppl died theres gotta be more), but because in regards to Gihun, theyre the strongest ones she can sense.
I like to think of it as she can see them clearly standing beside him while he cant, like obviously shes never met these people so she wouldnt know their names, but through her eyes she sees two people following and standing beside Gihun, watching over him and guiding him to do the right thing. To finally put an end to this hell hole that they found each other in.
Gihun obviously cant see it cause he’s not a shaman or even involved in the spirit realm like Seonnyeo is, but i even think the look he gave her when she said that hid a glimmer of hope that his friends were watching over him in the spirit realm, just like she mentioned.
ai does not belong in creative spaces. period.
did a lil writing on a fic I’m playing with, had to rewatch sae’s death scene like four times to get some details right, and then wrote a line that made me cry and I had to stop

in this house we don’t say “that character is dead”. we say “they’re wounded but they’re alive and are on their way towards making a full recovery on archive of our own fix-it fics”

sae-byeok and your apartment was quiet. too quiet. it wasn't the normal comforting, peaceful, quiet, no. it was an eerie, haunting silence. you were seated on the couch, holding a mug of coffee, but not drinking. sae-byeok had been gone for 3 days. no goodbye, no texts or calls, she had just disappeared.
“unnie…?”
cheol’s little voice cut through silence as he walks into the lounge room. your eyes drift over to the little boy, his timid face tear stained and his eyes slightly puffy.
“d-do you know where sae-byeok is…?”
he looks up with hopeful eyes, though his voice cracks as he says her name, and your heart breaks at the sight of him; a scared little boy who just wants his sister to come home. he slowly walks towards you, his sock clad feet padding on the wooden floor. when you shake your head sadly at him, tears well up in his big brown eyes.
“i’m sorry cheol…i wish i knew.”
he nods sadly, glancing down at his feet and fidgeting with his hands. then, he looks up at you with a sniffle.
“c-can i have a hug…? i…i miss sae’s hugs…”
he asks, his bottom lip quivering as a single tear rolls down his cheek. you knew you had to be strong for him, and make sure he was okay, even if you weren’t.
“of course, cheol, you don’t need to ask for a hug”
your voice is soft and gentle as you place the mug of now cold coffee on the table, and he crawls onto the couch with you, and scooches closer to you. although it’s a little awkward at first, he swiftly gets comfortable and leans on your chest, shutting his eyes as more tears fall.
“t-thank you, y/n…”
your heart fills with an urge to protect and look after this fragile little boy, knowing it’s your duty as sae-byeoks girlfriend. and until you know where she is, your all cheol has.
unless they specifically asked, you don’t get to tell a fanfic writer you think they mischaracterized the character by the way. because the second someone writes a fanfic about a character, that character becomes the writer’s own version of the character. canon is only a suggestion, but whether or not an author will follow it / how much of canon an author will take is entirely up to them. you don’t get to stick your nose in their world and tell them “hey this is not to my liking therefore I think you’re doing it wrong” when you can simply leave quietly and move on to something else you may enjoy
opened my laptop to read over my jibyeok WIP while I had breakfast and ended up writing 1k words and almost finishing the scene that had previously only just started!!!!
