sobbing AGAIN
This is a continuation of the cliff scene in which the Hwang brothers face each other on the same cliff again - and Jun-ho "pew-pews" himself

❛ ━━━━━━・❪ ○△□ ❫ ・━━━━━━ ❜
In-ho lunged.
Heart in his throat. Legs burning. The world narrowed to the sight of Jun-ho’s finger beginning to tighten on the trigger –
“Jun-ho!”
And then –
The shot.
It cracked through the air, sharp and merciless, echoing off the cliffs like the final word in a conversation they never finished.
Too late.
The recoil snapped Jun-ho’s head back, his body jerking once before crumpling like a marionette with its strings cut.
“No!”
In-ho reached him just as he tipped backward, just as gravity began to drag him toward the cliff’s edge. His hand shot out, grabbing Jun-ho by the wrist, fingers wrapping around cold skin as the rest of his bory crumpled.
“No. No, no, no –”
The wind roared around them, cold and merciless, howling over the crashing waves below. But In-ho didn’t hear any of it – not really.
All he could hear was the ringing in his ears. The echo of the gunshot.
The silence that followed.
He gritted his teeth, muscles straining as he hauled Jun-ho’s body back, dragging him away from the ledge and into his arms. The sea roared below, indifferent.
He collapsed to his knees, cradling Jun-ho’s limp form against his chest. His hands were everywhere. Desperate. Wild.
One clutched at the blood blooming at Jun-ho’s temple. The other searched blindly – his throat tightening – fingers trembling as they pressed against his neck. His wrist. His chest. Desperate for a pulse. Any sign. Any hope.
“Come on. Come on, please –”
But there was nothing.
No pulse. No breath. No flicker of life behind Jun-ho’s eyelids.
Just stillness.
And blood.
So much blood.
In-ho let out a sound that didn’t belong to any language – broken, raw, and guttural. A noise ripped from the part of him he’d buried so deep he thought it would never surface again.
“No,” he gasped. “No, no, no –”
He pulled Jun-ho into his lap, cradling his head with shaking hands. One palm pressed uselessly against the wound, trying to stop blood that had already stopped flowing.
His other hand cupped Jun-ho’s face, thumb brushing gently over a cheek that was already growing cold.
“Don’t do this,” he whispered. “Please, don’t do this. Not like this.”
He rocked back and forth, holding him close, forehead pressed to Jun-ho’s.
“You’re okay. You’re gonna be okay,” he mumbled over and over again, like if he said it enough, it would make it true. “I’ve got you. I’m here. I’m right here.”
But Jun-ho didn’t move. Didn’t speak.
Didn’t breathe.
In-ho’s arms tightened around him, curling protectively as if shielding him from the wind, the cold, the finality of it all.
He’d done everything – everything – to keep this boy safe. Raised him. Carried him. Loved him harder than he ever allowed himself to love anything.
This was the boy who had clung to his pant leg at five years old. The boy who waited by the window when In-ho came home late from night shifts. The boy who used to fall asleep with his head in In-ho’s lap during movies.
And now…
Now he was gone.
“Come back,” In-ho begged, rocking him gently. “Please… please come back.”
But there was only the wind. The sea. And the weight of the body in his arms.
The weight of failure.
The weight of the one thing he couldn’t save.
He rocked him gently, like it would do any good. Like it would pull the life back into him. Like he was five years old again and just needed to be held.
But Jun-ho didn’t stir.
In-ho sat there, knees scraped from the rocky ground, arms wrapped tightly around Jun-ho’s lifeless body. The blood had soaked through his sleeves, staining his chest, his hands, his skin.
It would never come out.
Nothing would.
He didn’t know how long he stayed like that. Minutes. Hours. It didn’t matter. Time didn’t exist in this place anymore – not when the person who made it mean something was gone.
Gi-hun missing the point of the joke
Me: “You’re funny, I’m following you home”
Gi-hun: “Following me home? What do you mean? You can’t come with me… you have your own home.”

There's a scene in S1, before the riot, where Gi-hun tells Sae-byeok that he and a few others are gathering together for protection and she is welcome to join them.
Sae-byeok tells Gi-hun that she doesn't trust him.
And I love Gi-hun's response. Gi-hun doesn't list off reasons for Sae-byeok to trust him. He doesn't get offended or annoyed with her. He just tells her, "You don't trust people because you know they're trustworthy. You trust people because you have nothing else."
To me, that sums up the core of his character so well, and it's the perfect example of what makes him the necessary hero to stop these games.
When the world tries to crush you down and enforce an ideology that trust is weak and foolish and must be stripped away through violence if necessary, the strongest thing a person can do is to trust other people anyway.
The only thing a person can do, if they want to keep any humanity of their own, is to trust other people anyway.
