my love for 999 knows no bounds

[runningoncaffeine]

I was having a horrible fucking day and I thought of 999YJH

I can see why he was Kim Dokja’s fav turn. I would have loved him too

This man had regressed nine hundred ninety nine times and he reached the end, he went through the hundred scenarios, sacrificing himself over and over again and he reached the end, the final wall

Only to realise that he couldn’t go on any further and pushed his companions further, regressing for the hundredth time. Regressing one more time, knowing full well that he would have to repeat the same he’ll over again, meet his companions again, no one remembering him, knowing that he could fail the next time as well, knowing that there was a chance that he could be stuck in this hell for eternity

And he moved on to the thousandth round

Tenacious can’t begin to describe this man’s perseverance! Just how strong would a human be to get as far as he had gotten? No wonder KimDokja loved the protagonist, no wonder he worshipped the man.

Yoo Joonghyuk who was tougher in mind and nobler in soul than any other creature in this universe

Can we talk about the fact that 999th turns’ Lee Hyunsung successfully Secretive Plotter’d himself. Like he became an Outer God and then pretended to be his own past self’s sponsor for a while and nothing bad happened. rip to SP but he's built different

Another year, another wistful yjh looking up

[roastedsunfish]

I remember being so confused when i was only reading the orv webtoon, to see all these comments about 999xkdj?? i rly thought the orv fandom lost it Lmao

[dreadark]

thinking about kim namwoon again… but 1863

in that round, he’s introduced wearing han sooyoung’s white coat (making kim dokja think he’s the leader for like half a second, which is hilarious. could you imagine)

it’s… cute?? he looks up to her so much that he tries mimicking her

I wonder if kim namwoon in the other rounds would steal yoo joonghyuk’s black coat the same way (rather... would yoo joonghyuk let him...)

and, well, dressing up in someone else’s clothes…

…you know

on that note, kim dokja’s advice to kim namwoon in 1863 is to just act more like yoo joonghyuk

the only way he can be liked is by becoming someone other than himself, huh

imagine 999th regression being the canon beginning of orv. imagine yjh dying. and then regressing. but kim dokja and the rest of the others are there. technically speaking, they CAN clear the scenarios without yjh, but kim dokja is least happy about it.

but what can he do? 999!yjh is as sacrificial as he is. so of course, he dies, bc dokja's too slow.

so what happens is everyone moves on. the world moves on. kdj has to also, because life has always been particularly shitty to him. life on earth was hell but twsa was his silver lining. in this brand new universe worldline, his light dies, but he still has his family.

losing yjh takes a toll on them. kdj is their heart, but yjh is equally so. they grow weary, tired. they keep going, most of all kdj, because he doesn't have yjh's "second chances"

and oh, does kdj begin to hate that word. hate yjh's stigma. his sponsor.

through his grief, kdj becomes a lot less happy. he resembles his mother a lot more, in temperament. he sheds the white coat and dons yjh's black coat. he gets stronger. all of them do, because yjh isn't there to cover their asses anymore.

hsy, donning the white coat, the only one of them who remains optimistic about their chances (in her special hsy way), finds a way to break the narrative.

they become outer gods, much to SP's displeasure bc somehow he's lost control of everything and gdi kim dokja can you sit still for five minutes)

999!kimcom travels the worldlines to find their yjh and like. look. they find him. but they also find the most ancient dream.

yjh and kdj fight and my god its a beautiful disaster. hsy takes advantage of their monkey brains and steals MAD away, kdj is not pleased. yjh insists they let MAD live because he doesnt want kdj to die.

bitterly, kdj responds "you should have thought of that before you went and left us," with a wry smile, the fucking hypocrite. but well, its not like he's sacrificed himself in a while.

i dont really have anything more to add here this was just a "what if yjh succeeds regressing but the worldline is still intact bc kdj exists"

Happy Birthday, Yoo Joonghyuk 🐟🎉

Average day in the SP household

based almost entirely on vibes alone I headcanon the 999th turn was the first turn where Yoo Joonghyuk started experimenting with her gender.

She had lived a thousand lives. For the 999th round she had already decided to say 'fuck it' and do what she wanted, it was already a round unlike any other, so what's really to stop her from wearing a dress or changing her appearance? and in terms of yjh taking care of her companions during this round and being generally nicer, I think it fits if she was also presenting more femininely or taking on a more motherly role in the group.

anyway that's why kkoma 999 is so good at like, applying stories that change your face, because she already had practice.

(in terms of style, 999 definitely had a sort of a trad-goth look since Uriel was the one who introduced her to fashion. if you imagine they were together in this round this could even be a date)
