where would we be, without all the distance?

"No one calls us home anymore," Sang-woo says, and he means it as a justification. An excuse. His life is empty, he is no longer a child to be cared for, no one calls for him and he has no home to go back to.

Gi-hun could have offered the obvious answer. He could have pointed out that Sang-woo's mother still calls him, that she talks to Gi-hun about her son whenever she sees him. We as the audience know that she asks if Gi-hun has heard from him, later, when she can't reach her son and worries if he's okay.

Gi-hun could have heard the excuse, the plea to give up, and he could have argued with Sang-woo or let him give up.

Instead, Gi-hun sees a reason for hope. He sees an opportunity. He hears, "No one calls us home anymore," and he holds his hand out immediately and says, "Let's go home."

Even if no one else will call Sang-woo home, Gi-hun will.

But Sang-woo doesn't take his hand. Sang-woo grabs the knife and takes his own life, instead, because the truth isn't really that no one calls him home anymore.

The truth is that Sang-woo is the one who stopped listening when they called.

good news, gang!! the fic concept I thought up and then dismissed because ‘it’s definitely been done’ has in fact, to the best of my knowledge, not actually been done

the last thing I need rn is another long-ish fic going but the more I think about this the more I need to write it

I’m actually amazed no one has done it but now I rly want to 😭

making progress on the ‘what was ji-yeong doing when she was offscreen’ fic 💖

hi.

whichever one of you fucks put my fic (vanish into you) into a public rating bookmark collection (and rated my fic 3/5 stars) can you please take it down right now.

i didn’t ask for you to rate my fic. you are unconsentedly rating shit i put HOURS into. HOURS I COULD BE USING STUDYING FOR FINALS. but sorry that i enjoy writing enough i guess??

hell, i dont even care if you rate it 5 stars, or 1 star, but i didnt ask for this, and im sure these others didnt either!! (there’s thousands of them)

this is genuinely upsetting me because as somebody who has a borderline anxiety attack before posting every chapter, it kinda sucks to get indirectly told your work is mediocre! i am insanely self conscious and this doesn’t help. so congrats i guess!

ao3 isn’t even meant to have a rating system. i’m sorry for getting so worked up over this but it is genuinely upsetting.

anyways. please and thank you.

How old were you at the lowest point in your life? Reblog this and put it in the tags, plus your current age maybe. I'm trying to see something.

The real villains of Squid Game are the ones who created the games, the ones who forced desperate people into a brutal competition for the amusement of the rich.

The players were victims.

But the people in charge of the games don't see the players as victims. They don't even see them as people. To them, the players were proof that when pushed to the edge, people will turn on each other. And too often, the VIPs seem to be proven right.

That belief is often compared to crab mentality, the idea that when crabs are trapped in a bucket, they pull each other down as they try to escape, ensuring that none make it out. And often, people use this as proof that humans are naturally selfish.

But, thing is, racbs aren't supposed to be in buckets. When crabs are in a place that is safe for them, they can co-exist. The only reason they claw at each other is because they are trapped and they're desperate to get out. And the reason why they're trapped is because someone put them there in the first place.

And the same is true for people who are trapped in a system designed to keep them down.

The real problem is the system built by those in power, the ones that force the powerless to fight for survival while the rich sit back and watch.

When resources are scarce, when opportunities are limited, and when survival feels like a competition, people will do what it takes to be able to get by.

But that isn't proof of selfishness or betrayal.

It is proof of desperation.

It's proof of a world where those at the top create conditions that make people believe they have no choice but to fight one another.

Instead of blaming those trying to fight this, the blame should be placed on those who create and uphold a system where survival feels like a zero sum game, where only a few are allowed to win while everyone else is left to struggle.

I love writing sae-byeok because even in a fluffy context she’s still (mostly) cool and collected from external POVs and then her own POV is an opportunity to explore her more vulnerable side, the insecurities she still feels, and how experiences from her past have affected her

I love writing stories where she gets to be happy 💗
