Hi. I love your writing and I would like to request how the Union guys from Weak Hero tell their S/O that they love them? Or how they show that they love them if they can't say it out loud.
hi! it sounds a bit like something I've already written actually! here. i tried not to double anything but... oh well. i probably did repeat some things. hope you enjoy it anyway 💙💙💙
Union guys telling you they love you
Donald Na
doesn't tell you for literal years. if you tell him you love him, he's gonna answer something like: "Good for me then" or "Figures" or "Who would have thought". Or he'll just chuckle.
what's the point of telling you anyway? it's not your goddamn business if he loves you or not. you probably know already, and if not, there's a high chance you wouldn't care after all this time.
if you ever decide to live together, he'll bake the most delicious bread you've ever tasted and share it with you. it's not a hobby for him nor a necessity, but it's some unconscious desire to prove to himself and to you that he now can provide for himself and for you what he could only steal in the beginning.
going easy on you when he knows you need it. it's a big thing for him - just to let you rest, to not push you beyond your limits even if he needs you back in business.
counting on you. even more - believing in you. he won't ever take you for granted or trust you blindly, but he'll be able to accept your help, to not expect you to fuck him over at the first sign of weakness.
talking to you. really, talking - not about plans or money or something immediately relevant, but just discussing some peace of media or sharing some memories is a lot for him, because he usually doesn't have time for this and doesn't trust anyone enough to actually talk.
he'll tell you he loves you one day, if you stick together long enough. simple quiet words, as if he hopes you won't hear it. you do.
Wolf Keum
it's easier for wolf to confess because he doesn't see it as confession. it's stating the truth - and it's pretty easy for wolf to do. the thing is he probably doesn't think about his feelings as "love".
it's a weird assortment of emotions and sensations that he came to associate with you: wanting to spend time with you, hating to upset you, slight sweet shiver that runs down his spine when you're so close he can feel your breath on his skin when you're talking. wanting to see you, to taste you.
he'll drop it casually as his reasoning for doing one shit or another. remember that scene from the little red riding hood? make it a bit more like "wolf why the fuck did you bite me?" "wanted to taste you, why?" or "wolf why are you here and not in your school?" "well your school sure is nice. also wanted to hang out".
wolf doesn't really do things to show you he loves you, but it's so obvious he probably doesn't have to. he still does things for you - just without the underlying "see? I'm doing this. because I love you! do you get it?" nonsense. he just does because he wants you to feel better or to smile or because he wants to help or get a reaction. he's too straightforward for that crap.
if you want an actual confession, you can get it. just combine the facts, remind him of all the things he already told you he feels about you and say "see? this is love. you love me". he'll probably laugh as crazy and be like "yeah, sure?". of course he loves you, you moron. have you seen yourself?
Jake Ji
jake tells "I love you"s easily.
the first one you hear is probably before he actually falls in love, and you just do something nice for him. so he cries "omg, y/n, I love you so much" and hugs you like the dramatic shit he is.
the first "i love you"s after he falls in love also fall short of his actual feelings. he makes them sound weightless and shiny like soap bubbles, like jokes, so it wouldn't hurt (so much) if you rejected him. he says it while playing games with you in some internet cafe or while replying to your "nobody loves me". if you say "i love you too" to him, even jokingly, his brain will short-circuit for a minute and he'll need a bit of time before he can react to things again.
the first time he says it seriously, with full weight and meaning, is probably when he's unbearably sad. maybe in the hospital with kenny, or when some of his guys got hurt. you're probably already dating by then to be fair. if you say you love him too, the sadness will gradually transform into the calm and acceptance. everything will be fine. you love each other.
he says it more seriously more often after that. it's becoming easier for jake to say real things to you even when he's not sad or enraged, and his cases of rage and sadness slowly become... not as bad as before. it's slow small steps, but you're going somewhere.
Forrest Lee
forrest is a romantic at heart. he'll want you to have a real heartfelt confession, maybe a romantic dinner, but like... him? and romantic dinner? like what? it just sounds hopeless. where does he even start? should he make a reservation at a restaurant? which restaurant though? he can't just take you to one of the places you usually order from. it has to be special.
he's not alone though, and by that i mean that his troubles were well noted by Robin and Grape, and then Eunchan extracts the truth out of Grape, and then suddenly the Daehyon gang decides it's their business too, since union is all about unity and all that crap. forrest is literally dying from such betrayal.
it works out though. i mean, you saw where Daehyon hangs out, both Jake's group and the Fam, they know the nice spots. they torture Phillip kim a bit to get clearance to the place chosen, and then it's settled.
he invites you to the restaurant, dresses in his nicest clothes and prays he won't meet any assholes today and his hands and face will stay clean for the evening. let's say he's lucky.
when you come, he's already there, there's your favourite music playing, a bottle of some nice wine and pretty flowers - your favourite if you have favourite, some pretty plastic stuff if you're allergic. forrest is visibly nervous, and if you mention it or try to tease him (please don't), he'll laugh forcibly.
he has a speech. the speech. it's a long thing written by hand on white paper. he places it before him and starts reading. it's basically a story about how he came to love you, why he loves you so much and how much exactly he loves you. it's very sweet if a bit awkward. forrest is tomato red when he finishes. he's flustered af and also scared you're going to reject him, but he does his best to stay hopeful. if you tell him you feel the same, you might actually see a wet glistening in his eyes.
forrest is very generous with affection, words included. once you're actually dating, he'll tell you he loves you whenever. in the morning, in the evening, when you do something he likes, when you do something he doesn't like. it's in different tones and words, but the message is always the same. he loves you. he's so grateful you're here.

I went on a week long vacation and got highly obsessed with a fictional demon Kpop group but that's not the point, I'm rereading Weak Hero
First off Rowan's (Ju Yang's) lying ass
He's so silly I lobe him, and then Gray (Sieun) beating Phillips (Unimportant) ass, Muaw chef's kiss. God I've been waiting for this
And then Teddy (Taeoh), my sweet, lovely, beautiful, elegant, intelligent Teddy RUBS IT IN. Ohh I've never wanted to laugh in a characters face harder CUS LOOK AT HIM
PATHETIC. If I were I Weak Hero character I believe I'd be Teddy, cus ohhh, I'd take so much enjoyment from this. Anyway I've made it to Wolf's (Seongje's) arc and I'm gonna disect every word, every motion, every glance, like a corrupt scientist getting his hands on a new undiscovered species. That is if I don't get distracted cus I get distracted easily, especially when a really pretty man is involved. So untill my next day at work, which is when I read (it's to pace myself, and give myselfsomethingto do during down time), here's some of my favorite Wolf screenshots so far + Teddy just cus
I read fanfics, but I'm not a hard core fanfic reader. I like oneshots, short, sweet, to the point BUT there's a series I liked reading, it got three, four maybe five chapters and than the creator dropped it. I still think about from time to time.
