sometimes you’re hit with a friendly realization that yes, life is good. you have your comfort characters and you have archive of our own. life is actually beautiful
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.
not gonna post about it much if at all bc this is a sg blog but I started playing class of 09 and it’s already fucking me up wow
ok which one of you is a VIP huh
sorry I haven’t been posting/replying/publishing lately btw, life is a lot right now
I’m appreciative of the asks and will get to them when I can 💖
new games fic coming as soon as I can get the prologue the way I want it and maybe when I write another chapter, since I wanted to include some actual games content. I worry it won’t be engaging enough when the only material out there is just setting things up
actually, let’s see
put three f/f ships you like in the tags. doesnt matter how obscure or embarrassing the media, go for it. and no, your m/m ship doesnt count as women

explain to me why I’m currently stuck on my aggressively sweet jibyeok fluff fic and can’t finish the scene I’m on but my brain is happy to produce the most heartbreaking angsty hurt/no comfort “let’s relive these horrible deaths” fics and I’m actually writing them instead
the way junhee looks at gihun when he is telling them that he'll help them when they get out is so soft 😭
her eyes are shining and she is so hyper focused on him and she even smiles a little bit as he is talking!
