People don’t understand the concept of liking two characters’ relationship in multiple contexts. They can be lovers in one setting and just friends in another, their dynamic doesn’t have to be consistent in every piece of art I make.
im aware this is an insane thing to say but i fucking. love characters that are just cockroaches. and i dont mean like. gross i mean they just do not fucking die. they can survive anything. they will outlive EVERYONE because they just will not die no matter what be it because they have a reason or because they literally cannot stop surviving the odds i love it i love it
Something I initially really liked about Cale's character is how he suddenly became the "trash" of the count's family and he seemingly takes it as an asshole permit.
No manners, rude? Well duh, He's the local trash.
And then, hundreds of chapters later it hit me:
This guy really never changed the way he acted, he says so himself and it's why Choi Han was able to easily recognize him in Choi Jung Soo's memories.
Which begs the question: What sort of internal narrative did he have going on as Kim Rok Soo to "justify" his behavior?
Baby Rok Soo was at the bottom of the social ladder, an orphan, poor and his uncle was an alcoholic and a gambling addict to boot
How many times do you think he heard things like "What can you expect from someone without parents?", or "Just what you would expect from someone who wasn't raised properly"
"Someone of your kind"
And then he became a Team Leader
How many things did he do or didn't do under the pretense of being "Cold-blooded"
It also doesn't help that he's unable to process praise or kindness directed at him.
okay this is like my first post on this blog but like this could not leave my mind. I bet KRS has those crazy long and random strong passwords that google suggests you when you make an account and like. He doesn't even need to worry about forgetting about it if the autofill doesn't work. Hell I bet he just straight up keyboard rashes whenever he makes a new account, stares at the password for about 5 seconds and make a new account. I can just imagine CJS and LSH and the rest of his team watching in petrified horror as he types in a string of random-ahh characters in perfect order by heart whenever he needs to log into his computer or something. it takes minimum 45 seconds for anyone else type in his lock screen password. Actually you know that meme with the crazy lockscreen pattern combination? That's just KRS' phone.
It's literally just-
Choi Jungsoo: Hey Roksoo can you tell me your laptop password? I need to borrow it for a sec. Kim Roksoo: Sure, it's *baksvfkafbljckavgflWUI68125329R8jblfavxvJkaDBdv* Choi Jungsoo .... Lee Soohyuk: ... Kim Roksoo: Did you catch that? Choi Jungsoo: Our furniture started floating and Lee Soohyuk's coffee mug grew legs.

au where tang bo comes back as a big ghost and sticks to chung myung. does this change anything ? just a little. maybe.
pov: youre too sober for this
this is the funniest thing I’ve seen in any review ever
This was the first time that Cale had ever been told he was cute, whether in this world or during his life as Kim Rok Soo. He had never been called cute in his thirty-plus, almost forty years.
LSH and CJS when I catch you.
You know, one of my favorite parts of tcf is how they deal with misunderstandings. Since Cale here, literally EVERYONE misunderstands what he means. Normally, I'm not a fan of when something adds a lot of misunderstandings, but the way the book does it is genuinely so good.
I generally feel second hand embarrassment when misunderstandings happen, but in tcf, when such misunderstandings happen, it tends to work out for him AND doesn't feel awkward. Mostly because they misunderstand Cale and think he's kinder then he is when he's actually being "selfish" (that gets quotation marks because he really isn't being selfish lol).
Finn + any pronouns + aroaceMostly lurk, but if I post/reblog it'll be about TCF/LCF or some web novels
