❝ it won’t be long before we hit the point of no return. ❞   ❝ every night, i have the same dream. ❞   ❝ i’ve been tracking you a long way. ❞   ❝ you know what they say. if you want something done right, do it yourself. ❞   ❝ what happened next was…not something i like to remember. ❞   ❝ and for a moment, i feel whole. but it never lasts. ❞   ❝ we’ll camp out here until we get our strength back up. ❞   ❝ you know i hate being called that. ❞   ❝ all i have left are the screams of those long dead and an unending rage. show me where to bury it. ❞   ❝ vengeance? no. i wanted devastation. ❞   ❝ well, you may lack sense — but you don’t lack courage. ❞   ❝ you can’t ignore it forever. memories always come back. ❞   ❝ my world stopped revolving around you months ago. ❞   ❝ i thought soothing the suffering of others would somehow appease my own. ❞   ❝ i’m not much for parties. ❞   ❝ i was thinking we could spar for a bit. when you have the time. ❞   ❝ there is something about you that doesn’t seem natural. ❞   ❝ it’s not like everyone can be born with a sword glued to their hand. ❞   ❝ the last thing i wanted was to worry you. ❞ ❝ any scrap of hope is better than nothing. ❞   ❝ i know what it’s like when your family looks down on you. ❞     ❝ i didn’t think i was that well-known. ❞   ❝ i hope you don’t hold it against me. ❞   ❝ you know that special part of us that makes us warm, kind, welcoming? you were born without that. ❞   ❝ i’m sorry you had to go through that. ❞   ❝ speak the truth. plain and simple. ❞   ❝ you’re stuck with me now — like bark on wood. ❞   ❝ if the end of the world’s coming, i don’t wanna be sober for it. ❞   ❝ i’m no stranger to hardship. ❞   ❝ ah, nothing…you just look good, that’s all. ❞   ❝ aren’t you a jewel in a junk heap? ❞   ❝ they say the only thing that makes a cold brew go down easier is a tale of times gone by. ❞ ❝ tell me what happened. step by step. ❞   ❝ forget what you think you know about me. ❞   ❝ i dread to think what would’ve happened if you hadn’t shown up. ❞   ❝ you can try to hide it, but inside, you’re as soft as a silk pillow. ❞   ❝ you’re going on without me, aren’t you?

reluctantly he listened to this convoluted story, whether spun of lies or truth, jun-ho didn’t seem to care either way, the only thing for certain now is that his brother was a criminal — the worst kind… he would watch hundreds of people risk their lives just for a sliver of won, he wondered if he enjoyed it, then he sighed, a deep sorrowful sigh, he felt he may collapse underneath this weight that had begun to build on his chest. he’d come looking for his missing brother only to find him living in luxury, if you could call it that , not injured or missing at all. ❛ enough — ❜ he said in a commanding, yet shaky voice. ❛ i don’t want to hear anymore. i don’t want to speak to you. ❜  @deadgames​ [ hwang i.n-ho ]

❛ do you still gag over the smallest of things? or have you learned to be an adult? ❜ the smile transformed into something real.    sang-woo recalled cherished memories and tried for nothing more then to remember the happiness he felt being near gi-hun,    and how much trouble they gotten into—the strife they gave their mothers.    it had only been temporary then.    now,    it was something much different.    

𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐠𝐢-𝐡𝐮𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐦, 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞, 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐧 — it was a feeling of comfort, familiarity in sang-woos smile; that smile alone send gi-huns heartracing, embarrassingly so. it was a feeling that only revealed itself when he was with sang-woo. he felt like a child again, and now that the talks of the their lives were over with he could relish in this feeling  ❨ 𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐭 ❩ — he found he would rather sit in silence with his old friend, letting this unspoken sadness wash through him, than spend another moment avoiding his mistakes. 

his cheeks flushed and he let a small chuckle pass through his lips, it was unexpected but all the more endearing. he waves his hands defensively. ❛ no no — what? haha i’m sure i grew out of that before you left — i think...~ ❜    ‘ think ’ was the keyword. he’d hardly grown out of it, but the only thing lately that sickened him these days was himself and what has become of him. ❛ mm… what about you? have you become a real adult — ? ❜ he nods his head towards the alcohol. ❛ can you drink more than two now? ❜ he gives a smirk.

❛ thank you… ❜ sang-woo said in response to gi-hun’s sworn secrecy.    he tried not to be too enthusiastic about it.    he didn’t have the heart to convey the truth.    he was surprised that gi-hun felt no suspicion by sang-woo’s request.     ❛ perhaps… we should leave talks of our lives and family in somewhere else right now,  ❜  a small smile returned to curve his mouth.    he wanted to move past it all as fast as he could.  

he nods, once, and then twice, and then a third time. it was a auto response, he couldn’t think of anything to say in response, but the simple pleasure it brought him to see sang-woo smile once again, something so small yet so big it filled him with an innumerable amount of joy, he couldn’t even explain the sensation. perhaps , it was in contrast to the dreadful loneliness he had been feeling earlier — he had friends, sure, but no one came close to sang-woo… or so he told himself in this moment.

❛ haha, you’ll hear no objections from me — but…uh... ❜ he paused, his mouth pulling into a straight line as his eyes wander around the bar. ❛ what do we speak about? ❜ the question, even though asked by gi-hun himself sent a surge of uneasiness racing through him.

𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐬,   𝐧𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝.    𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐠-𝐰𝐨𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐝,   𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐟 𝐠𝐢-𝐡𝐮𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐨.    nothing worthwhile to mention about a meager life that they both wanted to forget they were living and exist in the present.    even then… sang-woo felt himself drifting away,   each day felt harder and harder to trek through.    he started to question what the next day meant to him,   and what made him want to wake up each day.    the question had remained unanswered,   and now he searched for the answer.    gi-hun hadn’t known the way his smile had made this day worth living,   and sang-woo didn’t know how to let those words escape his mouth without consequences.    he still was a coward.    a coward who would escape just as he did before.   

sang-woo immediately regretted bringing up the topic of mothers.    how was he to tell gi-hun what he had done to his mother? how would he tell him how he failed? the expectations that were placed on him only weighed him down more.    sang-woo remembered how proud she was when she wished him well,   after graduating top of his class.    as he left with his ambitions high.    he aimed to make her keep smiling… give her an easy life where she could forget what it felt like to be without.    temptations of power and greed were quick to corrupt him,   and instead of working honestly as he had promised,   he had become someone who took advantage of others.    all in the sake of making more and more money—he never wanted to feel poor again.    never… but that sort of corruption in power comes at a price that he now pays alone.    he can’t even let his failures grace his lips,   in fear that he will fall apart—finally admitting to what he truly is.    a failure,   a criminal,   the worse type of human… self persevering to the point where those he loves get thrown under.    

❛ y—yeah! but,   only on the phone… ❜ he intended to lie,   but the truth forced its way out.    ❛ she… she doesn’t know that i’m here.    ❜ he lowered his head in defeat.    quickly,   he found the strength to raise his head to look on gi-hun once more,   ❛ you can’t tell her if you see her… please… not yet.    ❜

he worries the inside of his cheek, mindlessly until the metallic taste of blood began to filled his mouth, causing him to abruptly clear his throat after he gasps lightly, halting at the worrying. he digs crescent moons into his palms as he keeps eye contact with sang-woo, he’d missed him — too much to ever describe to anyone, even sang-woo himself. he lifted his drink to his lips and took a drink, releasing a small sigh after he swallowed.

he’d become engulfed in this moment, and he never wanted to leave, he felt like a kid again, dafe in the comfort of his friend. safe from loan sharks, from the constant hounding of his mother and from the reality of losing his wife and daughter. now he was with sang-woo and he felt at home, he felt happy for the first time in years.

eyes widen at hearing sang-woo plead for secrecy. ❛ i get it ,  ❜ he laughed lightly, waving his hands in defense. ❛ i bet you want to surprise her huh? my lips are sealed sang-woo. i promise. ❜  were it anyone else they wouldn’t have taken his word, hopefully sang-woo still had some faith in him, and his word. there was a lingering voice in the back of his mind pushing him to ask sang-woo if he was okay but gi-hun was afraid of pushing him away so he kept his mouth shut and said what he though sang-woo wanted to hear. ❛ your secrets safe with me, sang-woo. ❜

❛ it’s fine…❜ another smile forced to his face,   sang-woo tried not to make a habit of checking the room in case of wandering eyes,   and he also didn’t want to upset gi-hun further than he seemed to have already.   ❛ just here?… nothing new has happened? or exciting? ❜ sang-woo wanted to force the conversation elsewhere—anywhere than himself.   ❛ how is your mom? ❜

the room felt suffocating, gi-hun found it hard to breathe, he wished for silence, he couldn’t stand the questions revolving around himself. he was a let down, and frankly — he had been feeling less like himself lately. he gave another smile — he couldn’t let sang-woos visit back home be soured by his own downfall.  ❛ mom?  ❜ he repeats in a low tone, tapping the table with his index finger. she was a good enough excuse out of speaking about himself. ❛ hah, she refuses to retire. ❜ a white lie. ❛ but she is good — healthy as ever. have you spoken to your mom? ❜

another thing to add to that s/angihun scene during ep 1.... g/ihun keeps his eyes on s/angwoo even after s/angwoo gets cross the finish line. its like g/ihun was felt calmer or more determined if he kept his eyes on him. it was kinda intense as well, and i’ve not seen anyone say anything regarding the eye contact thats only broken MOMENTARILY when g/ihun trips.
