Summary
You’ve caught my attention.
There’s something in the way you carry yourself. Quiet, steady. Not seeking notice, but impossible to overlook.
I find myself wanting to know you. Not just in passing, but slowly, with purpose.
If you’ll allow it, I’d like to court you. There’s no expectation—only honest intent. This is my offering, made freely.
Take your time. I’ll await your answer.
Yours sincerely.In a city full of noise and strangers, Gi-hun, an aging, lonely omega, has grown used to being invisible. But when a traditional courting gift arrives—silent, scentless, and impossibly sincere—he's forced to confront a quiet, unbearable truth: someone sees him. Someone chose him. And someone, somewhere, is waiting to see if he’ll choose them back.

Summary
In this alternate retelling, Gi-hun discovers from the very beginning that In-ho is the Front Man. Instead of enemies, they form an uneasy alliance, navigating the deadly games together. With fewer casualties and as the story unfolds, Gi-hun and In-ho become unlikely partners—and eventually, the guardians of Player 222 for a little bit.
I’ll try to updating daily with new chapters.

Summary
He hasn’t slept. He can only see Dae-ho, he can only think of Yong-sik saying he just fell to the ground.
It was Dae-ho’s fault.
His chest is a churning mass of rage and grief and shame and hate. It pulls at his senses, he doesn’t know anything except—it was Dae-ho’s fault.
His wrist hurts. The handcuff is digging into his skin.
It was Dae-ho’s fault.
His eyes are getting dry, watching the shapeless lump of Dae-ho selfishly living, breathing, where so many others died.
He doesn’t know if he is blinking.
It was Dae-ho’s fault.
He cannot even think their names, all those people who died. He has tried to hard to help, he has tried to hard to end this, but no one will listen to him, no one will help him, no one will do what they need to do.
It was Dae-ho’s fault.
The lights come on and he blinks. His eyes hurt. His legs hurt. His head hurts.
It was Dae-ho’s fault.

Summary
*FIX IT FIC*
*Under reconstruction - light edits per chapter*
In-ho makes a different choice before Gi-hun can. He breaks protocol. Starts the evacuation early.
After the Game, Gi-hun and In-ho are two men carrying the same kind of broken—grief-torn, guilt-heavy, and haunted by the choices that kept them breathing. What begins as excruciatingly fragile proximity deepens into something unshakable: a child who needs them both, feelings neither of them dare to name, and the terrifying, hard-won hope that they might still be worthy of joy. Orbiting the wreckage of who they used to be, they begin again—not cleanly, but together.
But peace doesn’t come easy. Not when the past hunts them with a badge and a grudge. Not when the line between guilt and forgiveness won’t stay still. As secrets unravel and old wounds split open, Gi-hun and In-ho must fight harder than ever—not for survival this time, but for a future they finally believe they deserve.
