its interesting to me when people write lily as being fragile and naive and weak to blood/violence when she literally helped defend two vampires who were bleeding to death from cat tribe members. hello? and she wields a greatsword? HELLO???
#wwaffles bein' an idiot#wwaffles reads lch#i'll be honest out of all of the henituses she's my favorite#out of literally everyone she was kind of the first to jump at interacting with cale#(even though it was asking for a souvenir)#(she's also in an interesting spot where she is actually blood related to ((og))cale so she probably had like#more curiosity about him than the other two did)#(lil bro over there worrying about his place in the family and what he deserves meanwhile she's like. hey thats my orabeoni :3)#also its probably just because im dumb and the rest of the family is all about politics and territory management#god im glad SOMEONE in this family is normal (combat-oriented)

Because of that dream I had (mentioned in this post), I headcanon that og!Cale's only fear that applies to himself are teachers. All his other fears implies other people being the one who suffers, but he's deeply scared of teachers.
He's teacher-phobic like some people are clown-phobic and like some little animals are afraid of humans. (Or I to spiders)
In my mind, that's the actual reason he abandoned his studies. He had a whole conversation prepared to convince his father that he could do self-study and have Ron or Hans test him every some months. He was so ready to have to present a whole list of arguments when he ditched his classes.
Instead, Deruth just agreed to it almost immediately. Cale was so shocked that he forgot to tell him about the self-study part.
A few days later, he heard some people talk about how "the young master's behaviour got worse and worse" and how "he refused to have any education at all". Then they mentioned how Bassen was so dedicated in comparison.
So he decided that this misunderstanding was quite useful and let it be.
Anyways, I headcanon this so strongly that sometimes I forget it's not canon.
Everytime I read a highschool AU where og!Cale is skipping classes, I'm like "yeah, I would do that too if I were him". Then I remember that that's not canon, not even in the fic. He's just keeping with his "trashy" persona.
(Although, if the fic doesn't contradict it, sometimes I keep going with my reason instead).
#og cale henituse#original cale henituse#og!cale henituse#that dream was so detailed#cale was so scared but also#didn't care that much about himself like to do something about it#then his tutor almost hurt his sister before she was even born#and he got pissed off#his tutor was strange#he wasn't evil#just an amoral curiosity driven guy#he was brillant but crazy#and shouldn't be left alone with children#lcf headcanons#og cale#og cale's nonexistent teacher AU#if he saw a teacher he would walk backwards really fast

#i knowwwww alberu is like. not technically correct like i know. i know in true english it would be alver#but i can not stand the name alver and will forever be calling him alberu in my head#does it not match the vibes of the rest of the names? obviously. i Do Not Care#alver is too close to alvin#i dont think alberu is gonna show up in the first vol anyways#maybe the third one#depends on how many chapters per book it is#and also how they divide the chapters bc the priginal novel is like almost 800 chapters but the chapters are typically divided into parts#so depends on if they keep that division or just consolidate each chapter name into one whole chapter instead of dividing it#or dividing it less idk#i have too many thoughts abt this#my biggest worry is that i will be blindsided by someone elses name and how they decided to spell it#this is like the hq manga all over again#i will never recover from seeing them call seijou blue castle#like im pretty sure thats what aobajousai means#but its so fucking weird to call them the english translation then just the japanese name im sorry 😭#or blue castle might be what seijou means idk im guessing#where was i going with this#oh yeah novel incoming 🥳#u know i never read the first few chapters?#at the time i found the manhwa first and ran out of chapters to read and went looking for the novel#and then i didnt want to reread what i just read in the webtoon so i figured out where it left off and just read from there#on the one hand good for me bc ive tried reading the first chapters before in an effort to reread the whole thing again#but the first chapters give me HEAVY second hand embarrassment#and also anxiety that someone will catch that cale is not who he is#but alas nobody figures it out until wayyy later and its the guy who literally doesnt care bc he didnt know og cale and the guy who ALSO tra#transmigrated#so its a non issue. i wonder if pt 2 is gonna reveal it. i would imagine it would? i dont actually know what chapter theyre on. i think almo#almost 400 by now which is fucking hilarious i hope ms author is staring at her word docs like how did it get so long again#michi tag

Choi Han's whole deal with the spoon is supposed to come up in the next AF update, but just to put it out there:
See, Choi Han can't act for shit.
We know that. Choi Han knows that. Everyone knows that.
But as shown in canon over and over again, that's basically his only major flaw. Aside from that, he's an excellent helper and atp he's very used to KRSCale's modus operandi.
And that's the thing. Just as he learned to be an excellent helper for KRSCale, Choi Han also had to learn how to become a good helper to OGCale, however both roles required different things from him in order to assist each Cale properly.
For OGCale, Choi Han had to learn a lot of showmanship. Mainly party tricks. Most of which were taught by OGCale himself.
Heck, in this universe OGCale even taught Choi Han how to drink properly. From how to pace himself to avoid getting wasted, to how he can coax someone else to get wasted.
Enters the spoon.
See, OGCale has a signature party move that he passed down to Choi Han: opening a bottle with a spoon and perfectly spilling the contents in a row of glasses.
It was the very first trick Choi Han learned from OGCale.
After Raon destroyed the AF world, well-- Choi Han has his memories knowledge-wise, but the muscle memory is gone, so he has to practice all the tricks all over again.
And he's determined to relearn the spoon trick before meeting HeniRoksoo.
Which leads to why everyone is drunk in this bonus scene: they're helping Choi Han empty the bottles.
Acquaint Fate bonus scene
Rosalyn, Alberu & Choi Han tell Cale about HeniRoksoo's shenanigans in the destroyed world
◇──◆──◇──◆ ✦ ◆──◇──◆──◇
After Cale busts the meetings in Beacrox's kitchen and confronts everyone, thus making HeniRoksoo no longer a taboo topic, there's this moment—
In-between their plan to drag HeniRoksoo to their world, an unlikely scenario occurs.
It’s late at night. The kids are asleep, so are most adults at the villa.
In a room far away enough to not disrupt anyone, Rosalyn, Alberu and Cale gather. They’re tipsy as fuck (we all know Cale is sober), laughing quite loudly.
Choi Han is there as well, sitting on the far end of the sofa Alberu and Cale sit at as well, looking at a spoon in his hand as if it held the meaning of life.
Rosalyn cackles madly, hitting the armrest of her individual seat as she says:
“Remember when he made the Orsena go bankrupt?"
Alberu's groan says he knows exactly what she's talking about.
"That was nasty."
Rosalyn giggles, swirling her cup of wine.
"Oh, please. You loved it."
"For political reasons, I can't deny nor confirm that statement." They lock eyes, and Alberu breaks character. “Oh, who am I kidding?”
Cale raises an eyebrow, but waits until his friends are done laughing. He knows they will fill him soon enough.
"The late Duke was into gambling." As per usual, Alberu doesn’t betray expectations.
Cale takes a sharp breath, already anticipating the outcome.
"... He did not."
"That punk faked a losing streak and lured the Duke into betting everything he had— and I mean everything, not even the clothes on the Duke's back were left to his name after Kim Rok Soo was done with him."
"Shut up." Contrary to his words, Cale’s tone carries sheer elation and the underlying message of how offended he will be if Alberu dares cut the tale short here.
"But he didn't stop at that. He gave the Duke a grace period to pay the debt and they signed a contract."
"— what did that punk ask for as collateral?"
Alberu’s smile twitched, and Rosalyn was shedding tears, so Cale leaned back expecting something great:
"The Duke's main residence."
"... he made them homeless?" Wow, now he wants to go on a looting spree with Kim Rok Soo. That guy sounded like a lot of fun.
"It gets better." Rosalyn assured.
Alberu nursed his drink and asked mirthfully:
"So, the Duke was forced to ask for a loan— Cale, whose family do you think is one of the major shareholders of the Royal Roan Bank, hm? Who do you think has enough sway to convince them of lending that amount of money in such a short notice?"
Wheeze.
"He didn't stop at that." Rosalyn interjected. "Lady Orsena, that bitch–"
"Gasp!" Cale mock-gasped.
"You know she's a bitch. Anyways, back then, she wasn't quite the successor of House of Orsena yet."
Alberu, always privy to his own kingdom’s political gossip, added on.
“Lady Orsena needed an accomplishment to prove herself in front of the vassals. Eventually, she got word of a land that was up for auction in the south; various intel sources assured it contained high-grade mana stones.”
Cale’s lips twitched.
"He spread that intel.” It wasn’t a question.
“Uh-huh.”
Kim Rok Soo, that bastard—
“... he didn’t make it a cheap investment, did he?”
Alberu threw his head back and barked out a laugh, so Rosalyn took over telling the story.
“Oh no, Rok Soo pulled a you and made Lady Orsena’s pocket bleed, until she won the auction—”
“— only to realize it was money that her family did not have.”
“The mine promised to solve all of their economic problems, but payment was due in a week, so….” Alberu and Cale locked eyes. “Lady Orsena took a loan, and became the new owner of a salt mine.”
Cale’s own eyes started to tear up. This domino-effect level of screwing someone over was just glorious.
“Then Rok Soo waltzed into their main residence a week after that, contracts in hand, and kicked the Orsena out. The Duke’s debt, his own loan and his eldest daughter’s loan had accumulated astronomical interest by then.”
Alberu sounded way too thrilled for someone whose kingdom had a whole dukedom befall into ruin.
“Their contracts had a clause stipulating that, if the Orsena failed to repay at least twenty percent of the debt in half a month, the bank would put their properties up for sale until the entire debt was paid off.”
The three bursted into laughter yet again.
The whole thing was so over-the-top and petty, and yet so satisfying.
“Wait.” Cale suddenly sobered up. “He brought Raon to the casino–?”
Raon normally helped Cale by providing information about his surroundings. He also played an important role in his scams.
Therefore, Cale kinda expected for Rok Soo to make a similar use of the little dragon.
“No, he didn’t let Raon tag along." Everyone turned towards Choi Han, who finally joined their conversation. “Rok Soo-ssi is very good at mathematics. I don’t understand, but the basics is that he kept track of the cards and calculated all the possible hands he could get; the same applied for the other games, he made his bets based on probability.”
Alberu low-whistled.
“... look at that punk go.” Snorted Cale.
“Right? Right?!” Rosalyn looked quite proud.

The other day I had this weird dream where, in a timeline where the Soo's, somehow and for some reason, stopped the plaza terror incident— pretty much with no casualties. And then, like a week later or so, the king or Alberu (or any royalty, not sure who) gathered the nobles and other people related to the matter on the palace.
Here's when things start to... happen, I guess?
Turns out, between the people there was a really angry noblewoman who went straight to the king to ask for divorce of her husband. Not really sure what the guy did, but he was also there and he was kind of a jerk, so... Fair.
Zed, for this time in the right, tried to explain that 'yes, he can get them divorced, but right now was not the time for it'.
—It didn't worked.
The woman was really mad and indignated and the jerk of the husband wasn't helping. Obviously, the situation escalated.
The discussion turned into yells, which turned into them throwing things and a random woman (seriously, who was this? a mistress, maybe?) joining the jerk. Food was launched, Antonio Gyerre almost got a fork at the eye and, by the end of all this, Choi Han had a chicken wing on his hair (that was Choi JungSoo, actually).
After they got them separated, the jerk ended up being held by the guards for some reason (I think he threw a knife, but I'm not sure. It could had been Raon). The woman stomped off the room, being followed by a distressed maid holding a baby.
Five minutes later, Cale Henituse entered through the door, looking really confused. He glanced at all the people covered in food, at the man being picked like a naughty cat by the guards and at the spoon tangled in the king's beard. He tilted his head.
"What happened here."
And, instead of answering him, Bassen asked, "hyung-nim, what are you carrying there?"
Slowly, Cale moved the bunch in which he had his coat wrappled in his arms. He pulled off a piece of fabric a bit, showing a pair of litte hands to Bassen.
"—!!"
"Some crazy woman threw this baby at me at the hallway. Literally."
----
Then I woke up and now I don't know what happened later with og!Cale and his accidentally acquired baby. I mean, besides that he kept her, obviously.

random thought #3
[Minor SPOILERS for the first part of TCF]
Cale treats his ancient powers like they're his friends. Some would say he "stole" them for his own benefit but I just can't see it that way after everything I read in the novel.
Cale, former Kim Rok Soo, made a connection with these people. To me, they're not just powers to him. In fact, it feels like he understands what happened to them and if he doesn't, he quietly listens to their stories. And the way he talks to them also feels less like a selfish person who wants to use them for his own protection and greed for power but more like giving them the chance to see a beautiful world that became peaceful because of them. It's like he's comforting them after they suffered so much in the past (which is also connected to the healing thing I talked about in my other post).
Like yeah, he's annoyed at them most of the time but he doesn't blame them whenever he gets hurt or bleeds way too much as a backlash after using them. Instead, he simply helps them achieve what they couldn't do when they died.
“I’ll come back tomorrow.”
Cale said goodbye to the rumbling tree as if it was a person and exited the fenced area.
- Chapter 5: They Met
If he truly didn't care about them, he wouldn't get angry for them or at one point, he would've let their voices disappear in favor of getting stronger.
I like his relationship with them. Like they're the voices inside his head (lmao) and it might feel like he has wireless headphones attached to his ears 24/7 but he treats them the same way he treats the rest of his friends and family and it's really nice to see.
This is kind of the reason why I feel a bit weirded out(?) when fanfiction authors would completely erase Cale's (OG KRS) existence in the fic and replace him with OG Cale and give the other the ancient powers. Like I get people like OG Cale, I do as well, but it feels kinda wrong to see them with another person after seeing Cale bond with these people. In fact, I can't imagine them being with anyone but Cale, this chaotic little shit who gives Super Rock huge headaches and makes the others go violent for or with him whenever he's fighting with an asshole. Aside from one ancient power (if you know, you know), I just can't see him having none of them with him after everything he went through with them.
I keep remembering his almost one-sided conversations with all of them because most of the time it's chaotic but the rest are just as emotional with a feeling of deep understanding coming from him. It feels like he always has someone with him so whenever they're silent, I feel like the air is too heavy (like those few incidents when I just want to hug Cale).
I think the best description for Cale is that he's full of empathy.
So yeah, this is a random topic I thought about chaotic Cale and his equally chaotic ancient powers. Yes, I'm including Super Rock who isn't normal either. He's tamer than the rest but he's definitely not normal 🤣 I swear some people who think they're normal in the story are probably in denial like Cale is.
It just popped in my head when I saw the line about the tree in Chapter 5, which I quoted above ☝️
[Note: I'm not saying these authors are doing anything bad, by the way. This is just my opinion and I usually just skip those fics when I see them. I won't stop others from reading those fics just because I feel weird about this one thing about the ancient powers]
[Second note: This is about the first part of TCF, I dunno what happens in the second part yet but I hope to see more of his interactions with them]

SCREAM IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
I said this in my twitter and I'll say it again, while i cant deny that Deruth is a bad father to Cale, he still supported him from afar (like the emotionally constipated person he is—).
Like, even with Drew still in the picture (if i remember correctly), he was still a bit awkward with Cale and only really connected with him through Drew. And after her death, the misunderstandings and miscommunication between them grew and grew.
(Imo, even in the present he's still connecting with Cale mostly through Violan and the kids' cues)
He was also grieving for his wife and coped the only way he knew, by isolating himself from everyone and breaking down in his sorrows. As much as it is a bad move to just basically abandon your child to deal with their grief, and seek his own happiness after without any thought of his child's feelings about it— he's also just a person. And people have flaws and make mistakes, just like we do.
(Would you like physical reminders of your dead lived one? The ones they left behind? Would you just brush your grief off easily and live normally with them gone? No? Everyone grieves differently, and Deruth was at his lowest point at the time. Ofc he would act like that)
Did he treat Cale like this way too long? Yes. But again, he wasn't 100% at fault in this. They both failed to communicate with each other, assumed each other's actions wrong, and tried to protect the other in their own way. Deruth and Cale still LOVED each other, they just couldn't do it properly.
(The family was also constantly being scrutinized by others, be it the public, extended family, or the nobles. So thats that)
It's a MIRACLE that he didn't make Cale do the things his late wife did so that he thinks she was still there (wearing dresses, growing out his hair, etc.). Or changed who he was/kicked him out so that he doesn't have a physical reminder of his late wife. Or even (wrongly) blamed him for her death.
Its a MIRACLE he spoiled Cale and gave him what he (supposedly) wanted. That he goes above and beyond to try and make his son happy. That he makes it so Cale lives comfortably, safely, and freely to his own desires.
Even in irl, there's many people like this (i can personally attest to that). And while it hurts sometimes, its still miles better than what others have. He shows his love in his own way, and i can live with it.
Saw hate on Deruth and like cmon guys
Deruth is the Asian dad :)
He neglected Cale emotionally but (unlike a certain King who is wealthier than most noblemen) Deruth also spoiled Cale a lot
New clothes, glimmering accessories, A LITERAL PRIVATE LIBRARY FOR HIM AND ONLY HIM
And Cale's food is always on top
Cale doesn't like the food he is served??, OKAY fire the chef, get him another perfect plate
Vicross is still standing and working because he's Ron's son and his food is "decent"
Oh but Deruth let Cale drink and become an alcoholic and does nothing about it 🥺
Pls 😭 stfu
Cale likes to drink, and he lets Cale drink
It's the only few things Cale likes
But he neglected Cale health 🥺
Girl this is a fantasy world, there's no doctor lmao
Cale needs and wants are met,, Cale lives comfortably in his house, safe and warm
Deruth is the dad who would buy the whole store
Cale: Can you get me uhh coke
Deruth: Ok *buys the whole company*
Cale: no
Come argue with me we'll fight to the death
#Lcf#Lcf rant#deruth henituse#og cale henituse#I wrote this sleep deprived#And about 1-2 years out of the fandom#So forgive me for any mistakes on this take#But im still pretty neutral on deruth#I dont like him but i dont hate him either#Hes JUST A MAN#Also hi sha-unnie (if you still remember me)#This rant (read: word vomit) was a mess istg

Reactions to The Unknown's Chapter 353
Brief summary: Discussion about RPOG's influence in Earth 3. Talks about Transparent Corporation's honorary chairman. Cale's group meets Ahn Roh Man.
==========
We got the last of the background info today, explaining how RPOG was a global hit, played by hundreds of millions of players. Because of that nations and companies vied to control it, but Transparent Corporation stood adamant, refusing outside interference and stating that they only want to focus on the game.
They allowed ads for companies and national policies though, done stealthily that players wouldn't outright recognize it as an ad. Because of that, the fields of entertainment, sports, gambling, and so on also entered RPOG.
As someone who read Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, it made me think of Unicorn Corporation and its virtual game, Royal Road, in terms of its influence to the real world. Who knows, perhaps our author, YRH, read LMS and used it as the inspiration for Transparent Corporation and RPOG.
There was some talks about how the Transparent Bloods minimized the damage of monster attacks in Earth 3 because they settled here. It made Cale and Alberu wonder the state of Earth 1 and Earth 2, and if it had become peaceful there too like Earth 3.
Is this a foreshadowing that Cale will revisit Earth 2? And what about Earth 1? Please, author-nim! I want Cale to meet OG Cale! 🥰
Next up was the presidential elections. The honorary chairman of Transparent Corporation was Han Taek Soo, and his win was almost guaranteed. There was some parallels here, like Ahn Roh Man (ARM) represented the war-ridden past while Han Taek Soo represented the peaceful future.
People were tired of the war against monsters, so when RPOG was released, showcasing a "new world" that was peaceful and did not affect reality, it became a massive global hit. Thus, its honorary chairman became a symbol of "peace." He was also a known philanthropist and citizen of Roan.
ARM had a trusted aide who knew his secrets, and this aide was Earth 3's counterpart of Mary! She was described as a dull person with a mechanical voice. But she wore glasses, and called ARM as "oppa."
Cale's group finally met ARM, and they were dressed in branded black suits! And when ARM offered drinks, Cale asked for tea while Rosalyn asked for Americano which she found addictive. 😂
Wait, remember that character checklist Modern AU something that RIDI released as a bonus content for the LCF Korean volume bundle? In that checklist, it wrote that Rosalyn liked iced Americano! So if Earth 3 was a Nameless 1 parallel world, perhaps that Modern AU checklist might become reality?! 🤩
Here's a link to a summary of that checklist I posted here in the past: TCF Modern AU Character Checklist (Official)
Ending Remarks The two Alberus finally meet! And Cale, Alberu, and Rosalyn in suits! I'm excited to see more Earth 3 counterparts of our Roan characters! 🥰 Next chapter would be ARM's talk with Cale's group. I wonder, did ARM really not receive the Emperor Quest? Because when E3 Mary asked him if he received it, he did not reply and only thought of our Alberu.

What did Og!Cale sacrifice?
Genuine question...
Hear me out;
I'm reading the latest chapter of 'In an Instant' by Messy_haired_bum and something just clicked in my head.
See, I know that the Og!Cale is a fan favorite, something that I didn't really understand because we don't know a whole lot about the guy, but there's just something that's been stopping me from getting enamored with him via various fanfictions I've read even though they've made the Og!Cale very lovable, and I didn't really know what it was, for a long time, until now.
There are various posts circulating around saying that Og!Cale sacrificed himself greatly with the deal he made with the GoD, and at a time, I believed that. But... reading this chapter opened my eyes and made me think, what did Og!Cale sacrificed?
What did he sacrifice that he didn't already lose?
A lot of ppl say that Og!Cale lost everything to be KRS but the only thing he had left was his identity. That's... not a lot to be honest. Not enough, actually.
Now, I can hear y'all thinking "Current!Cale got his wealth, backing, and a family–", but so did Current!KRS.
Current!KRS also didn't need to deal with a world war involving a megalomaniac, entire enemy nations, and a literal divine being.
Og!Cale was a foot soldier for 40 years, most likely didn't help a lot against Arm and The White Star, and he died without any (known) great feats but he's given such an amazing opportunity to take over the body of someone that'll need to deal with all those problems? An opportunity of rebirth that even Lee Soo Hyuk wasn't given until he gave one up of his abilities to help seal a deity?
He knows he couldn't shoulder the burden of saving the world so he just... washed his hands off that responsibility... And then occupied the body of a high-ranking well-known individual to then go off and get a happy ending with his reincarnated mom.
As the excerpt above said, it's a win-win for him, he doesn't get soul-crushing responsibilities, he gets a high-ranking position that grants him power, he can deal with the learning curve due to being given Og!KRS's abilities and having an actual reliable guide, and he gets to be back with his mom.
And...
... If Current!Cale ever fails?
He can just shrug and say it's not his problem anymore.
He's got his new happy life now. (I'm not saying he will, I'm just saying he could, if he was a lesser man)
Current!Cale lost everything he had too, all the fruits of his labors, the results of him dealing with all sorts of issues and problems for years, just... taken away by a stranger in his body. You can say KRS!Cale wasn't really happy, that Og!Cale didn't know if the body he'll end up in would be okay, that he gambled with his life in taking over Og!KRS's life.
Life that... he was about to lose anyways.
It just wasn't fair...
If we ignore the fact the KRS!Cale is literally thriving and just look subjectively at the situation of the body switch, KRS!Cale got the short end of the bloody, hellish, rotting stick.
I can only get closure if I personally find out if Og!Cale ever gave a fuck about the uninvolved, innocent guy that he sent to deal with a 20 year war, and not in the 'Is he doing the saving he's supposed to?' typa way, I want to find out if he ever feels guilty of the responsibility that he gave the man, if he ever worries for KRS!Cale's personal safety and mental health, for putting an innocent man through war. An innocent man that couldn't just stand by, as the world he found himself in, burns around him.
I don't want to dislike the current KRS, I want to love him actually, but this is my current perspective on the matter and you guys are free to share yours so that I can broaden my mindset about Og!Cale (pls do, I wanna like the guy but I wanna know if he's a good guy first, I wanna know why ppl love him so I can love him as well)

Am I an enjoyer of Twin AUs or any AU where KRS and OG! Cale have a familial/platonic relationship? Yes.
Is RokCale also my favorite TCF ship? Yes.
I am very glad that the TCF fandom is so chill, if I were to have this kind of opinion in any other fandom, I'd be torn to shreds. I have been torn to shreds for this exact reason, lol.

Here 🙏 https://open.spotify.com/track/0Zw2o1Ep5rVWYa3Z5vRKVm?si=WAE3Rs_NSkSikQrX-IJCmQ
Man its just like. It starts out SO sad, with the depressing piano and strings. And then it turning over to whimsical piano and strings, furina and focalors putting on a mask and playing a role, pretending everything is fine. And then, end of the play, back to reality and showing how they really feel with the DEPRESSING PIANO AND STRINGS
you can hear so obviously when it turns over to the part with neuvilette in the cut scene even if its still the exact same vibe. Genshin music is so good. Im fucking losing it over furina man FURINA DE FONTAINE #1
Just the way she can so effortlessly ignore her own pain and suffering in a snap and just put on a mask like that UGHHHHHHHHHH
I found the songs that plays during focalors’ suicide on spotify and i had an hour long breakdown abt furina and focalors w it on loop may whatever gods are up there bless me with more mental stability
#just talking dmm#genuinely she is 👌👌👌#ALSO WHY I LOVE OG CALE AND CALS SO MUCH BC THEY CAN DO EXACTLY THIS AND SOOO WELL#Spotify

What's the general headcanon for ogcale's birthday?
As much as I think ogcale's birthday is November 8, I kinda don't want to be?? I get it, y'know, being born on the same day as kimcale holds some kind of celestial meaning and fate and destiny and stuff but it's also Choi Han and Choi Jungsoo's birthday so I feel like it's a bit much already 💀 especially since sometimes og/tboahcale and heniroksoo are separated so if their birthday is also Nov 8 that's 5 people sharing a birthday.
Also, I headcanon that they did not celebrate ogcale's birthday when he was trash so imagine this:
Choi Han: Cale-nim, when's your birthday?
Cale: November 8 (too lazy to translate it to Felix Calendar, just imagine)
Beacrox: No????? Tf???
Deruth: I can't believe my son forgot his own birthday 😭😭😭😭😭
My personal headcanons for his birthday is October 31, (only a week away I know but ogcale is literally a scorpio thooo), or April 1 (I'm fine with ogcale being an Aries, also April fool's cause his entire existence is a jok- *gets shot*)
