Thanks for tagging me, @sidelit <3
“You can wear the suit you picked,“ Hyungnim passes his verdict on the attire Han-seo laid out in advance. “That navy tie‘s a good call too. But you‘ll be borrowing one of my watches.“
= something Jangcest that may never see the light of day.
and yes, Han-seok is referring to the watch of their dead Daddy Dearest
I'd love to know what is your favorite thing you've written so far this year?
*laughs in 2026 has given me the worst brainfog in years, so nothing*
Whoops, that was a not-fun answer, but it is what it is ^^'
I still RP the occasional Hwangcest on Discord, but even then, I've been highly critical of my IC writing this year, so I've been doing my best to figure out what I need to do to claw my way out of that slump.
Worse yet, my most convincing portrayals are intelligent misanthropic control freak doms with trust issues (think Gell//ert Grin//delwald, Sephiroth ), so best timing ever to try my hand at writing Jun-ho, right? akjhfksfa lmao
So, with that lengthy caveat attached to it, have a copy-pasted IC post from the POV of this unhinged man with the biggest hyung complex in existence:
“Okay,” Jun-ho flatly acknowledges the death sentence pronounced upon the Front Man’s oblivious hunting dogs.
He has yet to fully process the gravitas of it all—of their needless culling when they have yet to defy the man holding their leashes in a vice-like grip.
But Jun-ho will not allow for his emotions nor for his conscience to thwart him now. He instead tells himself that in a way, their demise will be a rare instance of karmic justice. One of them might have participated in his brother’s abduction years before, another might have gouged out the eyes—and the kidneys—of a person still breathing.
Suddenly, In-ho is steeping into his space again, yet though he is exactly where Jun-ho wanted him, wants him, will always want him, the cold indifference in his words and voice is pure agony.
Jun-ho doesn’t move away from him, doesn’t even avert his face as he flinches as if struck.
“Positive reinforcement works best on me. You used to know that,” Jun-ho attempts in vain to mask or a least downplay the anguish in his eyes by feigning exasperation.
Still, his words themselves are nothing if not truthful, especially where In-ho is concerned.
“"Your Jun-ho is always so well-behaved for his hyung, isn’t he?” he’d often overhear neighbors or family friends fawn to their mother when he was already too old for them tactfully voice such observations in his presence.
And then, the verdict he was waiting for: “What a remarkable man he is, Hwang In-ho. No wonder Jun-ho adores him so.”
'Yes, you should praise my hyung more,' Jun-ho would rejoice in such instances. 'The whole world needs to know. The whole world needs to worship my hyung.'
He never cared about surpassing In-ho, didn’t care about being praised by neighbors, acquaintances, teachers in his own right.
Being praised by them was like eating candy. It was nice in the moment, but nothing he would dwell on after the sweetness dissolved on his tongue.
In-ho’s gaze, In-ho’s smile, In-ho’s praise, encouragement and guidance, on the other hand, he depends on more than the oxygen in his lungs.
Like those fish corpses he found in In-ho’s abandoned goshiwon, Jun-ho, too, will waste away if he fails to prove himself worthy of In-ho’s attention, In-ho’s recognition, In-ho’s love.
“Name your price, Hyung, and I’ll pay it,” Jun-ho thus declares with a grim finality.
when you get this, list 5 of your favorite songs, publish. send this ask to 10 of your favorite mutuals⭐️
Ngl, this is a tough one for me because these days, my go-to music is a mix of instrumentals and songs that are just catchy (but not songs I‘ll end up obsessing over in a lasting sense) XD
The songs below are longterm faves of mine & each of them managed to rewrite at least an aspect of my brain chemistry.
No, listing Hyde thrice isn‘t cheating, he‘s a serial offender when it comes to brain chemistry-altering lyrics XD
1) Hyde – Evergreen [Dist.]
2) Hyde – Zipang
3) L'Arc-en-Ciel – As One
4) Gackt – Birdcage; translated lyrics: https://moon-struck.net/lyrics/lyrics-birdcage/
5) One-Winged Angel FFVII because duuuh XD I picked the Remake arrangement for this one, though the Advent Children and original Dissidia versions are really good as well.
Bonus: This is wayyy too catchy despite being so far away from my usual preferred genres, to the point it makes me LIVID >.< (I grit out on my third day of listening to this song on repeat lmao)
