Sometimes he’s in the mind and mood for those things.

The glasses will be ready, as will something to eat.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He is pleased to hear it. Perhaps the other might wish to join him for a drink later?

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

Where has @MASKEDCOMMANDS been? He’s been concerned. Not that he’d say so aloud.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

@PROMISETOEND settled quietly upon Gi-Hun. With a little wave, he managed a tired smile to the other man.

Unfazed by the pools of blood, he stepped around them towards the other.

They were both out.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

@PROMISETOEND Stoic as ever, climbing up from the floor once the other in their room had been devoid of life, he looked to Jung-bae with an almost warning look. Don’t speak of this, his eyes silently said.

Stepping out and through the pools of blood, In-Ho looked around and his eyes —

He’s reading a book quietly, focused on the text. Brief downtime a paradise for him.

“Clearly the right option is option 2, and then upload a photo of said punishment to the work database. That’ll teach them.”

[ᵀᴴᴱ 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐑 . @2NDC0MMAND]

Just woke up & an inappropriate photograph of me which I thought I took on my private cellular device has somehow breached into the work database do I kill the culprit.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He’s doing his best. But it’s years of pain to work through in days.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

Well... He has as long as the games are in play. Days at most, hours at least.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

Where is @MASKEDCOMMANDS? He’s got a bottle of whiskey open and would rather share than drink alone.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He’ll do his best. It’ll take time though.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

They'll have to work on that, for their future. For Gi-Hun's survival.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

@456SSAVIOUR thinking they will blame you. People have made their choice knowing there’s a chance they will die. It’s a risk we’re all taking. I made my choice. I’d like to hope you can guide us through but this was my decision. And whatever happens, it’s not your fault.”

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

@456SSAVIOUR “Who knows? But it does seem most of these are our childhood games, so we must stand at least a little chance?” He murmured softly, thoughtfully, a soft sigh escaping him.

“People are voting based on their feelings and their own desires, you shouldn’t shoulder the weight of —

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He finds it hard to trust anyone. Even himself.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

In-Ho can do more than he thinks... If he trusts Gi-Hun, he can do it.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He’s doing what he can, but he can’t promise. He wishes he could, but he simply can’t.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

And the others ? He could send one signal to Jun-Ho and they'd be able to swarm the island... Don't warn the VIPs, let them get caught.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He’s working on it. He’ll be getting him out.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

Okay - then... Where do they go from here ? In-Ho can't leave him in the games. They need to end.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

They’re going to make one.

[𝙂𝗜 𝗛𝗨𝗡 ! 𝟒𝟓𝟔 @PROMISETOEND]

Is he ? Do they even have a choice ? A future ?

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

He’s never needed to.

Because In-Ho is already there. Always.

@PROMISETOEND The colouring darkened a little further.

“T…thank you, I think.” He chuckled and smiled a little. Sometimes he can be shy.

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

✨They were roommates ✨

[황인호 | 𝐇𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧-𝐡𝐨 @JadedWinner]

“Well deflected. And forgiven.” There was a slight tug at the corner of his mouth.
