remember to breathe normally, you're not going to be brave without a stable breath but still, the air trembled through his lips and his whole body followed that trembling motion. what was happening, literally - what the fuck was happening? monsters? it really was a video game. ken had died. to be ripped out of the world and be violently tossed into it again was a very horrible thing. he suddenly felt so, so bad for all the characters he had cursed for dying. it must be hard for them to - to die and come back to life so many times. when he got out of this - if he got out of this, he would apologize to them and promise to be the best gamer he could to stop their respawns. but for now - for now he had to breathe. there was a calm to this shit storm and he would take full advantage of it. it would be much calmer though if he could stop his hands from shaking to let him eat this dam cupcake. how he'd even required it? probably it was cooked by one of his three sisters or loving mother. with his father as a soldier, ken took over a lot of responsibilities and as a reward his sweet tooth was fed. the idea of family brought him warmth, as he wandered the suddenly silent halls, dragging his feet with him. but of course, this warm feeling wouldn't keep him warm for much longer. when his feet knocked against something he paused and with eyes refocused he found a familiar person. "jiyeon?" someone he never thought he would see in this bloody mess - but was so, so greatful to find.
