#john wick #listen...at this point hollywood has a glut of male action protagonists who are all The Mostest Deadliest in their own movies #and there is NO SHORTAGE of Dramatique Quiet Scenes when the action hero shows up to kill their target #and the target is an older type whom the director feels it appropriate #to do something more than an Inherent Eroticism of Death (sexi) vibe #so they have a philosophical conversation about death and all #but of all those many many scenes...there are only a few of those scenes that use this cliche'd trope to best effect #or at the very least PRESENT the HERO to the best Grim Reaper effect #AND LIKE...I HAVE A LOT OF MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT WHAT THIS MOVIE DID WITH GIANNA #BUT THEY DID A MASTERFUL JOB OF PRESENTING JOHN AS THE GRIM REAPER #because it's so..it's so WICK #when you want death to be fearsome in this context you don't want a hero who loves banter or speeches #you don't want a hero who's primary trait centers around verbal or explicit self-presentation #you want john standing there in a black suit and a black shirt #completely silent and honest in his own inevitability and prowess #waiting for gianna to decide the terms on which she will die #and then quietly making sure the job is done @takiki16

big fan of the john wick movies so far. first of all i'm delighted by how the whole series feels like a chance to explore the world that the writers built in the first one. second of all yes most of the movies are killing and the consequences of cruelty and the cycle of violence but more importantly than all that the movies are actually about kindness and connection and the ways that people love each other and choose to help each other again and again. and also about how much people love their fucking dogs.
#the movies are about john wick but more importantly they are about the people that he knows.#the people that he's formed connections with. friendships with.#john wick exists in this world because he knows the manager. knows the doctor. can send his dog to stay with charon.#yes he's caught up in a huge cascade of consequences that are making him do things he doesn't want to do but more importantly#he sits with gianna d'antonio while she dies. he holds her hand.#he can't go to anyone in the world but still he has people who he goes to to ask for help.#and in the world itself the whole system of the high table and the continental is built on the commerce of relationships. social currency.#very cool. very cool. i'm thinking about it#valentine notes#john wick

Congrats on your greatest work yet! I’m sure it will be amazing to see. Is it Marquis related????
Maybeeee
It’s me putting all my analysis works (on my main) into a fic! All of the knowledge I’ve acquired and all the theories I’ve conducted and all the character analysis I’ve written are finally being written and laid out!! So excited to finish it heeheheeheh ^_^
More on the story under the cut
So basically it’s like a High Table prequel, and it starts off with Gianna and Santino (Gianna mostly because I’ve decided Santino has had too much time in the spotlight) and then eventually it branches out to people like Charon, John, Helen, Adjudicator, Harbinger, Viggo, Marcus and of course— Marquis.
I’ve decided to fully delve into my more “artistic” kind of writing style in which I write it flowery, and of course with symbolism and distinct imagery (which I unknowingly copied off of @thewhumpcaretaker HAHA i stole ur writing style you can’t have it back >:) /j)
I can give a small snippet right now
AT THE BASE of everything that makes a person a human, they are an animal.
The illusion of it is the belief that humans aren’t animalistic. Gianna thinks otherwise. She has seen the ends of both sides; her as an animal and others as animals— ripping away flesh with bare hands and teeth sunk, grasping onto the thin thread of power. That’s the life philosophy that Gianna and Santino were both destined to learn and uphold.
I’m trying to put all my knowledge of the mafia/crime itself, human nature, and some other John Wick lore
Of course, it’s a multi-protagonist thing. Sort of like Arcane, but of course with a clear protagonist duo which would be Gianna and Santino.
I want to write it, I want it for people to read so they can find it both entertaining and in a way, insightful!
Can’t say when I would release the first chapter since I like to write three chapters before releasing the other one
Would love for some advice on how to write long fics tho dhsndhdh
The title is TDFP. Try to find out what that means :)
Love all of you guys who support me and my writing, I know it takes me a long time to write and I love all of you who have the patience <3

Is me again with Wick D'Antonio ask HELLOO :D
I remembered how you asked me about Santino's and John's wedding, like how it would look like and all that, SOOO :)
What do you think about their wedding! How do you see it? Where would it be? Who would be invited, etc?
How would they act? Are they both nervous or one of them is handling it better? ^ ^
Wick D'Antonio!!! What's interesting to me is that their wedding would look really different if they were still a part of the Table, versus in retirement. It's more romantic if they're retired, but I think it has more drama if they're still in the Table, so I'll do that version.
This was almost a fic - it has a plot honestly. Might write it later, we'll see!
Image sources: 1 2 3 (monogram) 3 (background) 4 5
You're absolutely right that they'd have a beach wedding. Beaches are important for both of them.
John lets Santino do most of the planning for their suits and for the theme, because fashion and decoration are his area of expertise. "Anything you pick will be beautiful."
So they have a blue color scheme with touches of silver, on top of lots of billowing white fabrics and blue and white flowers. And of course, the food is extravagant because he can afford it.
Coffee-flavored wedding cake with hand sculpted John and Santino cake toppers!! They both like coffee, so it's perfect. John thinks the cake toppers are really funny.
Santino has an extravagant blue suit and John wears white (You might expect black, but today isn't about him as a killer, it's about his new life with Santino and his sweeter side). They weren't going to see each other's suits before the wedding, but then Santino got too excited about picking clothes and they ended up suit shopping together. They also both have silver flower crowns, because I said so!
The guest list is a nightmare. Santino has to make sure no one is snubbed, because being invited to a wedding has political significance within the Table (not to mention within his family), and you don't want to make enemies. So he has to be really careful. Especially with the seating chart…
Security is a big issue as well, because this is a perfect time for assassination. John and Ares are both overworked trying to make sure the grooms will be safe.
When he's working on the guest list and security, Santino gets overwhelmed and starts to break down because he feels like their wedding isn't even about them anymore - there's too much politics involved. Plus, he's scared someone will take the opportunity to make an attempt on his life before his new life with John can even begin. So John has to calm him down and remind him that no matter what happens, he'll protect him from any fallout and they'll be on their honeymoon soon, which is only for them.
On the other hand, John barely has any guests. There's Winston, Caine, Sofia, and Katia, and…that's about it. It makes Santino a bit sad to see it, and he tries to make sure John can hang out with his family if he wants to. At least with Gianna.
There's a lot of back-and-forth in John's mind over whether to invite The Director. Ultimately, he decides not to do it. He says it's because she wouldn't really want to come anyway, but he honestly just doesn't want to see her on a day that is supposed to be happy.
On the day of the wedding, both of them are soooo nervous!! Santino wants everything to go well and according to plan - he's constantly fussing over his suit and pacing around memorizing his vows. John is nervous too, but he expresses it by being deathly quiet and just having a worried look on his face.
But once they see each other, everything melts away and they're smiling so much and can't stop crying. Their vows are so sweet - to protect each other to the death, to be there in sickness and health, to honor and listen to each other, to always be each other's first priority, to show each other the innocence that can't be found in the rest of this broken world.
And then…THE WEDDING DOES GET ATTACKED!!! But here's the twist: although neither of them told the other because they don't want to worry them, both of them decide to carry concealed weapons during the ceremony, just in case they need to protect each other. They both pull out their weapons at the same time and kill the assassins.
The attack is a blessing in disguise: it turns out to be a display of their strength, solidifying Santino's reputation and teaching others not to mess with the power couple!! It's also a demonstration of their love for each other and everyone is touched.
This gives them a nice boost of adrenaline as fuel for their wedding night ;) They're definitely making love with a passion because they're so grateful that both of them made it out alive…and because Santino thinks the splash of blood on John's white suit is actually kind of hot. They can barely get through the dancing after dinner before rushing off to be alone together <3

Also Rodolfo in a gray three piece suit
Have this idea where Rodolfo is the secret older brother of Santino and Gianna bcs *waves hand* things
Like Alejandro discovering his husband having blood ties with the mafia and can wreak havoc if he so desired bcs even if Rodolfo was nowhere near the D'Antonios for almost 3 decades he still has the favour of both Santino and Gianna
Anyway Shadow company is still lurking around cs somehow Graves manages to escape and now 141 and Vaqueros is working with the Camorra to stop them while being led by John Wick cs Santino did actually use his marker to get married to John to secure his position as Gianna's second-in-command and heir if anything happened to her
Also bcs Rodolfo D'Antonio has weird catchy tone to it

DULCE PERICULUM. | CHAPTER V - BLACK
to rear me was the task of power divine.
(John Wick x Reader, Santino d'Antonio x Reader)
full work
The twinkling lights, like comets in the vast dark sky, ever so lit behind the haze of clouds, almost winking at you.
It did not matter just how many times you had witnessed the beauty of the ever-reaching skies, lingering lights and stars coloring the navy black with meek brush strokes.
It did not matter that you did not know just how many more dawns you could witness in your life.
The unrestricted view from up above, mile high - would always be a sight to savor.
As the plane prepared for a landing soon, approaching the state from a downwards approach due to high winds - a quick look at your phone showed you the time.
5 in the morning. In mere moments, the sun would show it’s bright lights over the horizon of New York City, regardless of the grime and muck that ran amok the paved streets.
It was the crack of dawn. Where had the time gone? How was it morning already?
The emanating smell of brewing espresso acted in confirmation, a quiet commotion of preparation in the kitchen of the private charter.
Yet another morning coffee without him, you would think, as the thin porcelain set with coffee and breakfast pastries was gently placed in front of you on the polished walnut, the experienced attendants whom you had gotten to know over the years offering you a warm smile and a buongiorno, signora.
Your mind wandered to him - just what he was doing at that very moment across the pond, which suit he had chosen to tackle the day on. Which cologne out of his collection would he choose? Was it a woody scent to enhance his commanding presence in the room, or a casual aquatic he for business as usual?
Maybe he got a hint of your exquisite scent on his pillows in the aftermath of your intimate night. One of many, certainly not the last.
The thought made you quiver, your eyes landing on the deliberately assembled pieces of a constellation you carried on wrist, the escaping rays of light from the overhead light making the encrusted diamonds shine in fragments of rainbows across the cabin.
“Promesso, angelo mio,” he had whispered, softly kissing your knuckles as he had slipped the ornate jewelry on, reeling in the bright smile on your lips. “I promise you.”
“I vow to give you all the happiness in the world.”
You knew he would.
A gentle shake of the plane ended your trance, fingertips subconsciously tracing the edges of the marquise diamonds.
The coffee had not been enough to pull you out of your slightly groggy, dream-like state. A sigh escaped your lips, the remnants of not being able to sleep even on the comfortable plane evident in your eyes, in your slight aloofness - unnoticeable for any outside observer as the makeup applied a mere hour ago stayed fresh and hair slicked back, put together as always.
It was the façade you put forth in the world that people would remember you by.
When the mind refused to let the body relax, it had been common practice in your circle to put on an act until it worked, and until it all made sense.
From the very first moments, it seemed, it would be one of those trips where thoughts twirled in your head, running rampant with the past and future mingling, most of the times not getting along.
A thin satin-striped black pant suit had been the outfit of choice for the first day of this journey, with a crisp white blouse tucked under. One of your handmade wool coats hung in the closet nearby - chosen by none other than Gianna herself as you often would ask for her help in packing. Choosing your own outfits and making your own bags for any trip was not a common occasion as your trustworthy staff never ceased to elegantly fold clothes ready for you, and all you usually had to do was show up in the d’Antonio family hangar. Yet, for important trips just like these, another woman’s touch always came in appreciated.
“Do not catch a cold,” she would warn you as a sister would, her hands trailing across the vast rack of neatly pressed suits, the navy, black and tan, a harmonious blend of colors all around the dressing room. Her heels clicked on the marble flooring as she picked out the calf leather boots from the separate shoe rack, pairing them with your trusted woven leather tote bag to hold the essentials.
“Ci provo,” you had reassured her, hanging the black double-breasted wool coat next to the suit on the standing rack in the middle of the room to indicate the chosen ones.
“Do you miss him at all?”
The question had taken you by surprise, raising the hairs on the back of your neck as well as your one eyebrow as you turned to look at her in a seemingly confused look - even though you had known exactly who she was talking about. It was no use trying to fool Gianna d’Antonio, as she gave you a knowing smile - a kind one, willing to listen and understand, moving to take a seat on the armchair next to your vanity. In the meantime, her fingers were working on folding a cashmere scarf for good measure, yet when her eyes found yours again - she waited patiently, intently.
It had always been those green eyes within the d’Antonio clan, the piercing hues in them always proved to get them exactly what answer they wanted.
That time, it was like she already knew it before anything would come out of your mouth.
Did you really miss him? It honestly had been a question you found yourself asking often. The tug of war between your mind and your maimed heart that Santino had spent years fixing, engulfed your soul as you reminisced of just what happened, trying to formulate an answer - mostly for yourself.
It was slowly dawning in your being that some questions would never have a proper answer, even when you had spent years mulling over them.
“I do not,” you would reply, your voice not failing you. It had some truth into it, after all.
“Not after what he has done to me.”
So, why, in the uncharted, tucked away corner of your heard that was meticulously sealed off, just why did it still hurt?
Why were you putting your own life at risk, just so he could have one with the one he loved, the one he chose?
Gianna, to your surprise, had given a nonchalant shrug, followed by a capisco. She could say a lot of things about her brother, majority of them being insults - yet, there had been one thing even she could not deny.
“He adores you,” she had offered, her beautiful hair in bouncy waves as she had stood up to open your jewelry cabinet. “He has adored you from the moment you came into Camorra.”
“Even when all you wanted was him.”
One of the top drawers opening to reveal compartments of sparkling pieces, her fingers did not waver as they had known exactly what to grab. Santino must have asked her help - how else would she have known?
But oh, she had. She had always known a lot more than she would let on.
“Metti questo,” Gianna decided with a smile as you approached, extending your wrist to put the decadent bracelet on.
“Let it bring you good luck from us.”
Lost in the haze of your thoughts, the landing was soft as ever due to your short dozing off - your body only jolted awake with the attendant laid a fleeting touch on your shoulder as a kind wake up call, the aircraft under you taxiing to the private hangar.
The first pink rays of the waking sun, right on cue, emanated within the cabin as it casted a beautiful gleam across the white leather seats - all empty but two - the very minimal security, and yours truly.
Out the corner of the window, the silhouette of the city that had become another home blinked at you - unbeknownst of the hurdles that awaited you.
As you were helped with your belongings, you fastened the belt of your coat to brace the cold, expressing rounds of gratitude to the people that always took care of you - and you began your descent down onto the concrete of the hangar, the wind hitting you like a whip. Your trusted heels would not budge as they led you to the black armored vehicle waiting for your arrival, ready to take you to your first destination.
As the car drifted down the vast highway with habitual ease, John's old words echoed in your head - when Viggo Tarasov was involved, any destination could very well be your last.

Rating all John Wick single parents because I can :P
Tagging @evren-sadwrn @tobytheeggo @saengak @chaoticgardenbread :D
The number one spot on the list goes to...
Koji Shimazu!!! Easy 5/5
He easily takes the first spot. I mean, just look at his interactions with his daughter.
Koji had a loving relationship with Akira. They ran the Osaka Continental together, and they have these little inside jokes about "the Concierge/Koji's daughter". The way they switched between Japanese and English when talking, as bilingual families do. And the moment where Koji told Akira that he looked forward to dinner with his daughter is just the sweetest.
The only mistake Koji probably made was him sacrificing his life in the duel with Caine when he could have escaped alongside Akira. He thought this was the only way to protect his daughter, but who is to say the High Table wouldn't chase after Akira regardless if he's dead or not, but admittedly there was a lot of nuance to this situation that there was no better or worse decision to make at this critical moment as a parent.
Number two on my list goes to...
Sofia!!! 4/5
I was initially divided between her or Caine for this spot, but I decided on Sofia because it is explicitly shown in JW3 that she was present in her (unnamed) daughter's life early on, and only had to separate herself from her child and keep her in hiding in order to keep her daughter safe from potential enemies, something that kept Sofia haunted for the rest of her life.
"Sometimes, you gotta kill what you love." Also, Sofia keeping photos of her and her daughter in her office makes me sad.
Alright, as you might expect, number three on the list is none other than...
Caine!!! 4/5
The reason Caine is number three is that there aren't exactly many details on the relationship between Caine and his daughter. In fact, we aren't even sure whether Mia knew of her father at all. All we know is that Caine had a picture of Mia on his pocket watch, and the most he could ever come close to seeing his daughter is hearing her play the violin on the streets from afar.
Despite there being a high possibility that Caine was totally absent in Mia's life, Caine obviously loved his daughter very much, so much so that he wanted to leave the life of an assassin because of her, and was very pained by the fact that he couldn't get close to her due to the deal he made with the Marquis.
Now, the number four place on this list goes to...
The Director. 3/5
Despite her taking Jardani in as a child and raising him in the Ruska Roma, John Wick had a strained relationship with his mother figure.
Her parenting style is very strict and cruel, even cold-hearted, but she believed it was for the best. After all, she was raising a whole lot of children under the Ruska Roma by herself to become hitmen and assassins. The Director's treatment towards her children may not be ideal, but it didn't mean she didn't care for them.
The number five and final place goes to...
Viggo Tarasov. 3/5
Don't get me wrong, I don't think that he doesn't love Iosef as much as the other parents do on this list. It's just that his biggest mistake was that he never told his son about John Wick before.
Viggo probably spoiled his son very much, and while he wasn't afraid of physically punching Iosef in the guts for making a giant stupid mistake, he never once corrected Iosef's larger personal issues like his arrogance and violent tendencies. Looking at the person Iosef turned out to be, I personally think there is a certain degree of carelessness when Viggo raised his son.
Before we end, our (un)honorable mention goes to...
The Head of the d'Antonio family, aka Gianna's and Santino's father. 2.5/5
This is all just speculation since we have zero idea what this man looked like or how he runs his family (while there's no mention of a mother, we don't know whether the big old man single-handedly raised his two children), but the fact that Santino wanted to kill his sister out of jealousy after their father died is very telling of the family environment the d'Antonios lived in.
Because they were a criminal family who was one of the members of the High Table, it's very likely that this kind of toxic behaviour between family members was encouraged. Whatever genuine love or bond between Santino and Gianna would have been squashed by their father in one way or another.

The Ecstasy of Temptation
Summary: During the celebration that the D'Antonio siblings organized, with a bit of too many glasses of wine, the young omega, Santino, unexpectedly went in heat. The only one who could help him handle that was his alpha bodyguard, John, even if that meant breaking the rules of the contract. And he took great care of Santino in his heat.
Rating: Explicit
Relationship: Santino D'Antonio/John Wick
Note: August 12th, (12.8.) 2023 was the day I got registered on ao3, became LittleRealSimp. The day I officially joined. The lore behind this silly username is literally me and my irl bestie sitting in a park and talking about how we're gonna name ourselves there. And we both came up with silly usernames ehehe :P. I can't believe it's already been a year, like what, A WHOLE YEAR! I was lurking on ao3 for a VERY long time, and during summer 2023, I got enough courage to start posting.
This fic is a gift for @mrssimply because really her fics were the ones that helped me get through that summer and inspired me to start working on my own fics. I remember reading those fics on the terrace, at evening, so those are really some of my favorite memories from my vacation. BUT ALSO thank you for being my beta reader, a friend, a support, helping me out so much, and all our conversations, that really means a lot to me! Thank you for reading this, too! I'm so happy you like it! <3
Ahh this all made me emotional. I'm just so happy and can't believe it was already a year, and so much had happened. What a journey, and it's still going!
1 year anniversary of me officially joining on ao3, celebrating with a new fic!
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*:・゚✧*:・゚✧
Snippet
The D'Antonio siblings threw a celebration over gaining more territory. Gianna was in charge there, greeting guests and having everything under control. Santino, on the other hand, regretted even being there.
He usually liked those celebrations only because he actually felt included and he could drink more wine. The guests were annoying to him probably because most of them were alphas and only a few people knew Santino was an omega. Gianna, his family and John who was assigned as his bodyguard. Who was also an alpha.
John knew he wasn't supposed to have anything with Santino. The contract made that very clear and Gianna's order to him not to react at his heat or his actions during it. He listened of course, but he had to admit, Santino was tempting. The omega didn't want to play by the rules, always teasing John when he had a chance to.
Tonight, John had to keep Santino in his sight all the time. With other alphas around, powerful people, anything was possible. Santino was wearing blockers, he always did when he was around people. He hated the way some alphas would look at him as if they knew.
John kept his distance, watching how Santino was on his second glass of wine and accompanied by a younger alpha. Santino didn't seem interested in the guy, he was just pretending to listen to whatever he was saying.
Luckily, Gianna came to check out the situation. She excused Santino for a moment, going to a private room.
“Don't drink too much, you know how wine affects you,” Gianna reminded him, not looking very pleased.
“I know, don't worry,” Santino reassured her, “Thanks for getting me out of that situation. That guy was not shutting up.”
“Yes, I could tell.” His sister agreed, “Just go easy on the drinks, it could trigger your heat. After all, alphas are all around.”
“I'm wearing blockers, they can't scent me.” Santino fixed his tie, checking himself out in a small mirror on the wall.
Gianna sighed, walking over to him to fix his hair, but the omega moved away.
“Your heat is supposed to come… tomorrow? Or in two days?” Gianna tried to remember his last heat, she has lost track of his cycles ever since he kinda snapped at her for doing that.
Read the rest on ao3

💙🖤 John Wick x Santino D'Antonio Ship Overview/Analysis 🖤💙
I did this for Santino and Michael in my crossover stuff and now I want to do this for Santino and John as well!!
So, why are they so compelling?
Canon divergence AUs for this ship are full of possibilities because we have so many moments in the timeline to choose from. They knew each other in the early days of John's work, but that is left completely open-ended so it's very fun to explore that time period. What if they never split up? And if they did split up, then they had some period of Santino presumably pining for John after the Impossible Task (angst!!) and then they were reunited. It's easy to imagine a world in which that reunion went differently and one of them showed the other a lot more compassion - what if Santino hadn't betrayed John? What if Santino had thrown away his marker as a sacrifice to show John how much he loves him? What if John had ACTUALLY refused to kill Gianna, even after his house was blown up? What if John had forgiven Santino instead of shooting him? I haven't written all of these possibilities yet because there are just so many.
Although a lot of people assume that they're toxic with one another (continuously fighting, stalking, taking revenge on each other, etc.), they can also be written as an exploration of anger management and conflict resolution in a way that's very sweet. John's careful emotional control and devotion allows him to be patient with Santino and make him feel safe enough to express his pain through means other than violence. Santino's stubbornness can be put towards a determination not to hurt or control John. They demonstrate a seemingly miraculous victory of love over possessive rage - but a victory which is actually won through a lot of hard work and emotional growth.
Their sexual dynamic is SO HOT. Messy brat constantly teases stoic dom. Need I say more? No, but I will. It's not just that Santino is teasing John, it's that he feels safe enough to tease John. He wants to know 1 - that John is strong enough to put him in his place, and to just feel and enjoy John' power. And 2 - that John actually going to be gentle and forgiving with him no matter what he does. He watches John shove him around, manhandle him, do kinky stuff with him...but never actually traumatize him the way that he was traumatized growing up, no matter how much Santino annoys him. It's this constant proof that he is loved.
And then the hurt/comfort dynamic!!! Santino keeps poking at John there too. He ignores his health, he pushes himself to the limit, he gets into reckless situations. It's like he's constantly asking John, "Do I even matter? Do I even deserve to be saved?" And John is constantly stepping in, saying, "Yes, you do." I adore this even more when John gives him long-term solutions - things he can do instead of self-harming, routines that help him fix his sleep schedule, help getting off of his addictions.
And how about John's role in all this? He sees himself express tenderness. He sees that he is capable of that. He learns that he is capable of patience, that he is not just a killer. Every time Santino pushes him and he doesn't push back, every time that they playfight and it doesn't turn to real fighting, John begins to trust himself slightly more. And when Santino expresses concern for him, and turns his own caretaking back on John, John has to learn to value his own life as well.
So Santino and John both slow heal. A beautiful recovery arc is at the core of the John x Santino ship and I love that for them.

FINAL HAVEN: One last safe place
un fanfiction de Alejandra Frausto
SINOPSIS
Santino D'Antonio esperaba muchas cosas en su vida, incluidos el poder y la grandeza. No contaba con que su padre le arrebataría esa vida, que merecía por derecho propio, y se la daría a su hermana mayor, Gianna.
Descontento con la decisión del anterior líder de la familia Camorra, Santino cobra su marcador de sangre más valioso con la única persona en quien confía para no fallar en matar a su hermana: John Wick.
Para desgracia de Santino, el implacable asesino escapó de los secuaces que había enviado para matarlo, con la esperanza de no dejar "cabos sueltos" al momento de ascender como el nuevo líder de los Camorra y miembro de la Alta Mesa.
En consecuencia, y con el fin de que Wick no cobrara venganza sobre él, Santino abrió un contrato entre los criminales más despiadados del mundo, ofreciendo 7 millones de dólares por la cabeza de John.
Parecía sencillo, pero no por nada el nombre de Boogeyman precedía a John.
Asesino que intentaba detenerlo en su cacería, asesino que no vivía para contarlo; y en ese momento, el hombre del saco estaba cazando a Santino D'Antonio.
Hasta que lo encontró.
Santino huyó y se escondió. Era un juego de niños para Wick. Solo era cuestión de tiempo, cuestión de minutos para que lo alcanzara y matara.
Entonces apareció ella.
Un ángel a los ojos de Santino; un daño colateral a los ojos de John.
Hola, la verdad le quiero hacer justicia al personaje de Santino D'Antonio de la saga de películas de John Wick.
Ciertamente es un gran personaje con una historia fuerte, que bien desarrollada tiene mucho potencial, y ni hablar del pedazo de actor que le da vida (Riccardo Scamarcio) es un hombre muy atractivo, no me lo van a negar.
Por lo que espero que le den mucho amor y cariño a la historia, tengo las ideas en mi cabeza pero a diferencia de mi otro fic quiero hacer este acapella, por lo que si ven errores o me desvío de la trama díganmelo con confianza, por favor, para poder corregirlo a tiempo.
GRACIAS POR LEER
