Dae-ho X Hyun-ju Is Actually Such A Good Rarepair

i'm hereby posting chapter 1 of my squid game fic as soon as i wake up tomorrow!! god im so excited but also so nervous

dropping the summary + author notes i wrote

VANISH INTO YOU | SANGIHUN + SQUID GAME GHOST AU ⏾ִ ࣪𖤐

Cho Sang-woo always expected death to be the end. When you died, you felt nothing. Not a single trace of you left behind, no soul remaining to roam in your memory. Just permanent nothing. That was how it was supposed to be. So why was he still here? Trapped on the island he died on. Unable to move on. Bound to a place soaked in blood and regret. And what made it worse? He was far from alone. [sangwoo-centric ghost AU following the events of the 33rd squid game. majority of this story takes place in s2/to-be s3]

"what kickstarted this fic was me saying to @schadennorth: "i love the thought of a ghost au , like there’s gotta be so many ghosts lurking around the island which includes our s1 favs!! i’d love to see them in a s2 setting where gi-hun comes back and they're watching him from afar (as ghosts). and seon-nyeo claims she can see ghosts so imagine the shit she’d see them doing" and then i decided. you know what. hell yeah. let's write."

this action will have consequences

SQUID GAME MAIN SIX - AND THE COLORS I ASSOCIATE WITH EACH CHARACTER

Sangwoo - Blue (logic, control, depth)

Gihun - Red (courage, passion, leadership)

Saebyeok - Violet (veiled, resilience, melancholy)

Ali - Green (harmony,strenght, focus)

Jiyeong - Orange (adventure, wit, energy)

Minyeo - Yellow (creativity, adaptability, vibrance)

downloaded capcut bc I have too many ideas for edits to not make them

prologue and chapters 1 & 2 are being published simultaneously so the story gains some momentum before the weekly schedule starts, and there’s some content for readers to get stuck into :)

I just realised that to meet my planned publishing schedule for the upcoming sg serial fic I need to have the prologue and first two chapters finished four weeks from now, pretty much to the day (planned release date is every saturday) plus enough extra material written ahead so that I can stay on track

which means I need the jibyeok and ji-yeong fics done ASAP because I am not a quick writer

so fics will be coming soon!!!!

- you’re beautiful too, unnie.

me: meant to be getting ready to go to the big library to collect a book and then do some jibyeok fic work. the happy nice one

also me: what if I got sidetracked, started editing a different fic on my phone, and then burst into tears about it because it’s an angst fic and my heart can never handle seeing jibyeok suffer (she says. writing jibyeok angst)

about to start writing, thought about upcoming scene, remembered the scene it’s based on in canon, I’m already crying what the FUCK
