Kim Rok Soo, I see you, totally.

Whumpee who save themselves instead of waiting for rescue. Whumpee who waits at home for caretaker to find because they didn't know where else to go or who to trust.

Caretaker, who just came home after a hopeless day of no leads for whumpee's disappearance to find them passed out on their couch.

Recently I’ve been thinking about the different types of love languages in Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, The S-Classes That I Raised, and Lout of the Count’s Family…

Not to say that each of the stories describes only one single kind of love language; they are, after all, all novels that focus on Found Family, with many different types of relationships between characters that express their love for each other in as many different ways.

Yet, I’ve noticed how at the core of each of these three stories there is one specific act of love that recurs more than others, and that becomes the true Theme each novel revolves around.

In Lout of the Count’s Family, the main love language is providing food and a home.

“Home” is such an important concept in LCF that Cale collects houses like they were pokemon cards. The source of his trauma when he was a child as Kim Roksu was that he was not given sufficient food, and that where he lived was not truly a shelter where he could feel safe, just a place he was trapped in.

And I don’t think there are ever more than 2 chapters in a row without a character offering food to others, or asking if they’re hungry, if they’ve eaten, why haven’t you eaten, here have some apple pie!!

Cale uses his newfound money and power to make sure his loved ones are provided for. That’s how he adopts bonds with most of his new family.

The first thing Raon does after he’s freed from the prison he’s been trapped in all his life, is to leave food for this hopelessly weak human.

Choi Han, who has lived alone in a dangerous forest for decades, would do anything to protect his home.

The Crown Prince, who has been isolated and untrusting of everyone ever since his mother died, makes sure to always have cookies in his bedroom in case guests “break in” for a visit at any time of the day or the night.

I love you, you’ll never be hungry again. I love you, my home is your home.

In The S-Classes That I Raised, the main love language is words.

Yoojin’s powers are literally activated by telling people “I love you”. Because all he ever wanted was to say “I love you” to his brother one last time.

Because the tragedy that starts the story happens because Yoohyun loved and protected his hyung in secret for years. Silence creates misunderstandings, it creates distance, it leads to loss.

Loving someone isn’t enough, tell them! Reassure them. Remember what they say, because their words are important!!

Ever since the regression, Yoojin always let people know when he loves them and appreciates them. “You’re perfect, you’re cute, you’re so talented, you’re so handsome, you are loved.”

And as the novel progresses, whenever Yoojin is in pain, or doesn’t know what to do, he turns to Sung Hyunje because he needs to be reassured, he needs to know he did well, he needs to hear he is still important to the people he loves.

I love you, please know that I love you! I love you, please tell me you love me back.

And finally, in Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, the main love language is time.

Time is one of the greatest sources of horrors in ORV. Eternities upon eternities of suffering, being trapped for ages in the same, hopeless loop, wishing for everything to just stop.

And yet, time is also the greatest gift characters give to each other.

Because the wounds Dokja suffered as a child, and then again and again through his whole life…. They need time to heal. They need so much time. They will probably take forever.

So let them take forever.

Despite how much pain and worry he causes his companions by giving up on himself over and over again, his companions never give up on him. And he doesn’t understand why!! He doesn’t think he’s worth it. But it’s not his choice, it’s theirs. And they will go through as many tries, as much pain, as much time as it takes, before they can finally save him.

I love you, so I will wait fifty years for you. I love you, so I will live through thousands of lifetimes to find you. I love you, so I will read and reread your story for the rest of time, just to keep you alive.

Sui Khan: so... How did you get Cale to call you Hyung exactly? He wouldn't call me that no matter what.

Alberu: I announced in front of an audience that we're sworn brothers now and asked him to call me Hyung in front of everyone.

Sui Khan: genius. I should have done that too back then. Damn.

Their appearances in novel vs in manhwa

[fireofdestruction23]

The fact that, Cale not only b*tchslapped the White trash but also beaten him up with a f*cking rock?!! The out right disrespect towards the White trash is insane!!! 🤌🏻💋🤣

One thing about Cale, he doesn’t play about his youngest son, Raon Miru!! Cale, the man you are!🧎🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️

Part 2 got me like: What in the A03 is this? 😂

Ohh, just a contract…. 😂

Anyway, 10/10

[blueteller]

Blue-nim.... I... I, I asked ai about original Cale Henituse and original Kim Rok Soo and, and I'm... I'm crying 😭😭😭

Original Cale Henituse

1. Weak and timid: Initially portrayed as a frail, incompetent noble.

2. Innocent and naive: Lacked worldly experience and political savvy.

3. Replacement protagonist: Ultimately overshadowed by Kim Rok Soo.

4. Fateful connection: His life intersects with Kim Rok Soo's.

Original Kim Rok Soo

1. Protagonist of "The Birth of a Hero": Novel-within-a-novel's main character.

2. Heroic and idealistic: Classic fantasy hero archetype.

3. Transmigrated: Reborn into Cale Henituse's world.

4. Influential actions: Rok Soo's decisions significantly impact Cale's life.

Proof you can't just believe whatever internet tells you, man, whether it's AI or not!

About OG Cale:

1. Weak and timid who?? Tell that to all the gangsters he single-handedly traumatized

2. Innocent and naive where?? The boy was more politically savvy than his freaking FATHER, at the gosh darned age of EIGHT

3. Replacement protagonist – well excuuuuse me, PRINCESS, he survived 20 years of world-ending war before becoming the new Team Leader of Team One in Korea! I say he's the protagonist of his OWN story!

4. Fateful connection: true, except less "intersects" and more like "they were probably cousins all along ".

About KRS:

1. Protagonist of "The Birth of a Hero"? That's MOTHER FLIPPING CHOI HAN!!!

2. Heroic and idealistic??? Pfff, tell that to all those poor fools Cale scammed for money

3. Transmigrated? Sure, except less "reborn" and more "swapped"

And lastly:

4. EXCUSE ME?? KRS's decisions significantly impact Cale's life?! More like literally THE OTHER WAY AROUND. OG Cale was the one who made the deal with the God of Death!

Thanks, this was hilarious to go over. Merry Christmas, everyone!

Whenever I'm thinking about Cale Henituse the first thought I always, 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 have is how this little stoic meow meow can easily destroy the whole balance just by existing.

And at that point, you know what, I understand why God of Balance became edgy asf. Why Sealed God clowning around. Why God of Death whimpering pitifully. Why various worlds sweating bullets... Amongst others.

You may nerfed him and still getting fvcked up 𝓼𝓹𝓮𝓬𝓽𝓪𝓬𝓾𝓵𝓪𝓻𝓵𝔂.

He is a man of [Fvck around and find out] and [I don't get mad I get even] at its finest.

He is a man of his people, and only to his people.

Can I just say I once thought Alberu and Rosalyn would get married. No, I do not ship them. In fact, this made me almost quit reading the novel 😭😭. I was wrong and I am so happy.

I forget specifics because it was so long ago but it was when the gang is at this library (something something bud illis and mercenaries.) Cale is finally revealing Record. I believe they were looking for more information on Ancient powers but basically Cale is hot, he's sweaty and then they call the Crown Prince.

And during the call, Alberu's thoughts go to '…and I'm never getting married'. I wrote this in my bookmarks: "You saw Cale hot and sweaty and your thoughts went to marriage??". That's not important to the point, just thought I should mention it. But the interesting thing is, during the call, even I don't remember what it was but Alberu and Rosalyn talk about something and something just clicked in my brain.

As it point, tcf to me was not that special YET and it was just another fantasy 1000+ chapter brainrot like the cultivation novels I read, so romance wasnt something I would be surprised at. Plus, I always tried to guess which characters were getting set up to be together.

Something about Alberu and Rosalyn's conversation made me IMMEDIATELY assume that they were an endgame couple. I hated that. 'THEY DO NOT LOOK GOOD TOGETHER'. It actually made me dislike them both a little as characters (I changed my mind don't worry). Especially since it didn't make sense. Rosalyn ran away from royalty to be a mage, why the hell would she be queen of Roan?

But the way they actually did look like a generic couple is what made me dislike it. They did look like a generic fantasy endgame couple but Rosalyn x Alberu doesn't make sense (sorry to any shippers out there if there are). Plus something about the way marriage was mentioned and he had that conversation with Rosalyn, it felt like it was foreshadowing something and I guess I overthought it.

I was right, it didn't make sense, why the hell was I thinking that? When I tell you I SCREAMED and rolled my eyes everytime they interacted afterwards. I still loved them but they do not belong together.

What 'confirmed' it for me was when Cale, Raon and Rosalyn and some other people go to Alberu, eat some cookies after that library thing. Alberu mentions something about his childhood and Rosalyn thinks about how lonely he must've been and how hard it probably was. I didn't get to appreciate this sweet moment cause I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOO"

I got over it as some time passed but I still believed it would happen lol. I started to get comfortable with interacting with the fandom around chapters 600+. That's when I realized Rosalberu (cute ship name tho) isn't a thing in the fandom and there's no fanfics of it. Nothing's happened in hundreds of chapters and no one is talking about them as a couple.

For 600+ chapters, I thought Rosalyn and Alberu would get married. Once again, I'm sorry if this offends the 12 people who ship this, just thought it was funny how I genuinely believed it would be canon
