Why do you prefer og!Cale as the older brother in twin fics?

There are 4 reasons:

1. OgCale is canonically 4 years older than KrsCale.

2. I enjoy the "cheerful older brother & quiet younger brother" trope.

3. KRS could NEVER have too many hyungs.

4. OgCale deserves to be the Hyung he never got the chance to be.

KrsCale: "I don't like doing hard work. I'll just scam others into doing it for me."

Also KrsCale: doing everything by himself not 10 minutes later

OgCale: "I hate night duties. I need to get rid of it."

Also OgCale: sending his team home early and doing all the work alone

Chapter 2: First Impression (pov: Alberu)

Alberu: "I've prepared a detailed schedule to monitor Cale Henituse's every move."

Tasha: "You mean you've prepared a detailed schedule to stare at him from a distance."

Alberu: "That's... that's a very uncharitable interpretation."

Tasha: "Is it wrong though?"

Alberu: "...No.”

Cale: staring at a cat "You're so soft and precious and perfect—"

Cat: meows cutely

Cale: immediately stands up "Actually, I changed my mind. I don't care about you. Goodbye."

Cat: confused meowing

---

Cale: "You're pathetic."

Bully: "How dare you?!"

Cale: "I mean it. You're so pathetic that even your reflection cringes. Your ancestors are probably apologizing to everyone in the afterlife."

Bully: crying

Cale: "That's what I thought. Now where's Kim Rok Soo? I need to see his face to recover from that bully's ugly face.”

---

Alberu: "If you keep antagonizing every noble you meet, you're going to make enemies."

Cale: "I don't make enemies. I just don't make friends with people who aren't worth the effort."

Alberu: "And how do you decide who's worth the effort?"

Cale: "I look at their face. If I like it, they get a chance. If I don't, they get ignored."

Alberu: “…"

---

Adin: "As an Imperial Prince, I must say—"

Cale: "Must you though? I feel like you could just... not say anything. It would be better for everyone involved."

Adin: shocked silence

Cale: "See? Isn't it more peaceful after you shut up."

---

Adin: "I could make your life very difficult, Cale Henituse."

Cale: "And I could make your face very unrecognizable."

Adin: "...You do realize I'm an Imperial Prince?"

Cale: “Do you realize I don't care?"

---

Alberu: "You just insulted three nobles, threatened a fourth, and then helped a commoner find their lost bag."

Cale: "And?"

Alberu: "I'm trying to understand your thought process."

Cale: "I don't have one. I just do things."

Alberu: "That's... that's terrifying."

Cale: "I know. Isn't it great?"

---

Alberu: "Why are you so fixated on Kim Rok Soo?"

Cale: "Why are you so fixated on my fixation?"

Alberu: "...Fair point."

---

Tasha: "Cale threatened a Count's heir."

Alberu: "That's not new."

Tasha: "Then he apologized."

Alberu: "He WHAT?"

Tasha: "Well, he said 'I apologize for threatening you. That was rude of me. Next time I'll just kill you quietly.'"

Alberu: "..."

Alberu: "That's more like him."

---

Cale: seeing his siblings being harassed

Bully: "Your family is nothing but—"

Cale: appearing out of nowhere "Finish that sentence. I dare you."

Bully: "I—"

Cale: "No, please. Continue. I want to know exactly which body part I'll be removing first."

Bully: runs away

Lily: hugs Cale "We're fine, hyung—"

Cale: "FINE ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH! I WANT BLOOD!"

Basen & Lily: used to this

Og!Cale centric.

Summary:

Cale Henituse is famous for three things: his impossible beauty, his unique powers, and his complete inability to keep his mouth shut. When he arrives at the Sovereign Peace Academy, he expects to have some peace. Unfortunately for him, the Academy is full of people who cannot seem to mind their own business. The Crown Prince who's used to being wanted wants the one person who doesn't want him. The commoner swordsmaster who hates nobles can't stop thinking about one specific noble. The duke's heir who only wanted slacker-life now can't imagine a life without him. The Imperial Prince who loves breaking beautiful things has found his most beautiful target yet— and the list goes on. Fortunately, Cale is capable of handling the bugs flying around him.

AHHHHH!!

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

GHHAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Aside from Record and Instant, there were other things he could— ‘No.’ He shouldn't use that power. Wasn't it kept as classified even within the company, practically sealed away? The moment he used that power, Cale would lose consciousness[…]. ‘You, seal that thing away forever.’ Kim Rok Soo had no intention of violating the words that every single one of his team members had spoken in unison. ‘If it were Cale Henituse's body, it would be death.’ That weak body would surely die. Cale had no single speck of desire to let that happen.

CONFIRMATION CONFIRMATION FINALLY WE HAVE CONFIRMATION

CALE DOES HAVE ANOTHER ABILITY! AND IT'S APPARENTLY SELF DESTRUCTIVE AS F***!!!

[cale-thames]

Not gonna lie, I wanna see him use it even if it's far more harmful than "Instant". 👀

[sadlynotthevoid]

Listen my understanding of OgCale's character as a "for fun and world (the people I love) peace" type of character comes from:

1) his lack of hesitation or complaining about having to fight, his job meaning he has to fight monsters, and his decision to "just" become the CEO when he finds Director Ma annoying.

He doesn't mind hard work or fighting and decides to aim to a top position in his company with the same air of someone who decides to cook pork because there's no cow meat. He does mind people like Director Ma (as in, them messing with people, taking into account he got bothered by the guy talking shit about Rok Soo, but also interacting with them himself) and the night shift.

2) His default mode (unless annoyed or acting like trash) seemingly being "smiley guy who has zero hesitation saying whatever he wants to say, whether that means spitting nonsense or saying cheesy lines worthy of a shounen protagonist".

3) his three goals (as heniroksoo) are becoming his niece's family, saving the world so the people there can live happily and taking over CEO position. In that order.

And 4) He really went "I guess I'm just going to throw away my position and reputation for the sake of my family (people he just met)" in a society with a nobility system where corrupt nobles like Venion exist. When he was a kid.

So, my take on him is guy who simultaneously doesn't give a shit about what others think and is drive by love as his main motivator, but also, doesn't seem to mind whatever effort he has to put for his goals. And who just happens to be annoyed by very specific stuff.

What a character.

[cale-thames]

He is just an old man who loves his family wholeheartedly. He honored his name Cale which means "wholeheartedly, loyal". 🥺

[skylerskyhigh]

I found a ref for the expressions and it fits the twins so well lmao

[cale-thames]

KrsCale: Let's stay away from obtaining any political power and title to have a peaceful life.

OgCale: Let's obtain more political power and a higher title (CEO) to have a peaceful life.

KrsCale: has problems→ fans make them WORSE.

OgCale: has problems→ fans make them worse AND give him some.

They even drew this iconic scene!!! 💖

HEADCANON:

Just like KrsCale prefers to wear black clothes to hide blood stains, OgCale would prefer to wear white clothes to make them more visible.

[cale-thames]

OgChoi Han: "Yes, I am toxic. But did I ever hit you?"

OgCale: "Yes."

OgChoi Han: "…!"

OgChoi Han: "Okay, I did. But did you die?"

OgCale: "Almost."

Or,

OgCale: "Yes, I am toxic. But did I ever insult your dead family?"

OgChoi Han: "Yes."

OgCale: "…"

OgCale: "Okay, I did. But did you die?"

OgChoi Han: "No, but you almost did."
