I’m rly surprised there isn’t more squid game x pokémon AU content out there, like Idk why there would be specifically but I’m still kinda surprised by the absence
anyway that’s another series I love, ask me which pokémon your faves would have on their team or as their partner pokémon if you want :)
someone on twitter is trying to claim that use of an em-dash is an indication of AI-generated writing because it’s “relatively rare” for actual humans to use it. skill issue
what if I did this and set the whole thing to run on korean time in real time (until the games start, then you gotta suspend some disbelief bc this fic updates weekly) and used it as a means to expand her backstory and motivations and explore how the games affect her even though she isn’t a POV character and
wouldn’t that be soooo wild
anyway. first three instalments coming sunday
we going back to the games with this one
I kinda wanna make a blog for my squid game OC and then do like a “what if she smuggled her phone into the games and was posting about it” concurrently with the fic she appears in
Small brains: “This Squid Game character is completely bad and has no positive qualities!” “This Squid Game character is completely good and has no negative qualities!”
Big, massive, gigantic brains: Every Squid Game character is a realistic portrayal of the human mind and morals, no character is void of sin nor are any of them inherently wrong for anything they do when put under the pressure of being forced into situations where they have no choice but to survive or die trying. No decision is stupid or weak when a gun is pointed to your head, or a sharp object is held to your throat. When a human’s life is threatened, of course they will make decisions that we at home deem irrational, and we see it that way because we are not them. We are not groveling on our knees with the barrel of a gun aimed for the spot between our eyes, we are sitting in the comfort and luxury of our homes, watching a fictional show about a dramatized rendition of the effects of CAPITALISM.
It is okay, in fact warranted and natural, to feel hatred for people who do questionable things, as well as adoration and empathy. You are human. So are they. That is the point of the portrayal. Gihun wasn’t fucking around when he forgave and trusted so easily. He doesnt see “evil” or “nefarious” he sees human.
The REAL enemy? The system. Which is what we’ve been trying to say since DAY ONE of Squid Game’s release. Next time your blorbo gets killed off, dont look at the crazed stare in their murderer’s eyes, look at the knife or gun in their hand and ask yourself the question;
Who put that there?
Who put the weapon in their hand and gave them the capability and the drive to do it in the first place? When you do that, you will achieve clarity, i promise.
also now I’m thinking about it what if I published the fic and her blog concurrently in real time with the timeline of the games
the url I’m considering for my OC is available 👀
a world without trans people has never existed and never will
prints
eventually I’m gonna make a post with examples of every SG character acting like their MBTI type and none of you are going to know what the fuck I’m talking about
