Hmm thinking about wtnv 171 has me thinking about Cale and mirrors. Like could y'all imagine if everytime Cale saw his reflection it was KRS? Or if he saw everyone he lost back in Korea? Imagine if everyone else saw it all too.

He'd cover up that big mirror in his room and avoid looking at his reflection as much as possible and obvi there's misunderstandings like "oh the young master is shy" "Cale must see how much he looks like Jour" "he's so humble" "ah he's making a point that appearances don't matter!" etc etc but like nah bro's just haunted

Imagine if all the worlds Cale goes to started a battle royale over Cale to try and convince him to stay in their worlds. They fight each other but also the Hunters bcuz they wanna make Cale happy.

Obviously our squad from Roan fights too even though they know Cale is gonna stay with them bcuz they can't just Not put up a fight when it comes to Cale

Cale meanwhile has started a betting pool between the gods and uses the money to help pay for repairs for the royal palace

Random TCF Shower Thoughts Time:

do you think Cale would K.O. if he used Instant and Record at the same time?

How bad would Cale's records act up if he was trapped under some rubble somewhere for days during part 2, far from his family?

(longer idea inspired by us questioning Cale's third ability below)

Give me Cale with some sort of Survivor ability. Where Kim Rok Soo lives because he literally can't die. Where whenever he's on the edge of death, when his heart is about to stop, Survivor kicks in and goes above and beyond his limits to keep him from dying, be it by fighting or running away. Where during a battle Cale is fatally injured and his body stills for one second before immediately getting back up, forcing broken bones back into place and wiping blood from his face and gunning it towards the enemy like doom incarnate.

His family is screaming because "gods dammit Cale-nim/Unlucky bastard/Cale-nya/Human/Young Master/Dongsaeng you're bleeding out!!! you've done enough, stop fighting!!!" And something feels so Wrong about this and they don't like it one bit. But they can't place what's wrong until after the battle once they've forced Cale to lay down and realize he hasn't said a word and has been diligently listening to their demands that he rest and let them handle the rest.

His eyes are blank, not like when he uses Record, no it's worse somehow. There's nothing behind his eyes at all-Survivor is active and in control, not Cale. Cale's down for the count, deep deep down somewhere recovering because that attack did more damage than anybody realized and he's not waking up anytime soon.

Give me everyone losing their minds over this with worry and fear because there is Something walking around that looks like their beloved red head, Something that mechanically eats apple pie and drinks lemon tea but doesn't pet the kittens and give them a scammer smile. Give me the kids rambling about their days in his lap. Give me Alberu offering Cale golden plaque after golden plaque. Give me Choi Han quietly whispering to Cale in Korean while he guards him day after day. Give me everyone doing everything they can think of to get his attention and wake him up, only for Survivor to ignore it all.

Survivor is there to ensure Cale's physical wellbeing-to help him survive, not to help him live (because yes there is a difference)

i gotta wonder like, Ranboo was NPCboo for a while and all npc dialogue yeah? So what if the haha funny filter made Charlie seem like he was back to being funny but after he was brought into the next room he was really speaking his dying words or pleads or something?

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

okok so I have Thoughts and Questions

snowfall media almost looks like an abandoned mall of sorts

now that Ranboo is free, I'm asuming he'll be on the run with the snowfall media masked people chasing him. Perhaps on a time limit as well, cuz who knows how long The Stranger's hack will last y'know?

Perhaps he'll find the sets and see everything for how it really is, gore and all?

Can The Stranger wake anyone else up or just Ranboo since he's The Hero?

Who's leading Snowfall Media? Can The audience still interact with Ranboo now that he's free? Could he mess with the brainwashing and leave himself notes or something?

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

I think Alberu's laughing so much in the new chapter because if he doesn't laugh he'll cry out of frustration

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

How much do you think Cale being a noble factors into his success in TCF? Like I know some fics have gone into this by having Cale transmigrate as other people, but do you think he could've done the same things if he just transmigrated as himself? What if he was a peasant or something? Just Some Guy?

Maybe it's the location that really matters. What if he transmigrated into the Jungle or Paerun or the Whipper Kingdom? He wouldn't have met Choi Han in the beginning if he wasn't in the Henituse Territory. If he'd started making changes to the plot later, would it still have a large impact?

Six hundred lives at stake

It's just one life to take

And when we kill him then our journey's over

No dying on me now

Defeat is not allowed

We must live through this day so

Fight, fight, fight

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

I bet Cale can fold himself up like a pretzel to hide in the smallest of spaces

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

Cale would love chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate covered cranberries

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

oooo i need someone to animate ep 2 sooo bad I need flashes between the haha funny snowfall filter and the horrifying reality of what's going on

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

The temptation to write my next essay on TCF and/or Cale as a protagonist is Strong

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

I bet Cale has the best mattress money can buy, enchanted by the best spells one can conjure

[aro-screams-into-the-void]

I really hope Ness snaps on Kaiser at some point for pushing him down all the time

Thinking of TCF x musical crossover things

On, Hong, and Roan going to a academy and starting a revolution like Revolting Children (Matilda)

Clopeh starting a revolution in the news industry so he help the workers bcuz Cale would approve but also so he can spread the word of Caleism (Newsies)

Rumors starting that if you say Henituse three times Cale will cause chaos in your area immediately (Beetlejuice)

Mary singing The Ballad of Jane Doe (Ride the Cyclone)

Cale and Co. Singing Full Speed Ahead during the Ghost Operation at Hais Island 5 / Alberu or Cale or TBOAH!Choi Han singing Just a Man / Alberu and Cale singing Warrior of the Mind / White Star singing Ruthlessness / God Games with GoD talking about Cale / Cale scamming Choi Han while singing Open Arms (EPIC)

TBOAH!Cale singing Hurricane while thinking about the Henituse Territory being attacked (Hamilton bcuz I need at least 1 reference)

Cale singing Fight For Me while thinking about how vicious everyone is yet how he can use them in battle (Heathers)

The citizens of Roan singing Welcome Home when Cale and Co. come back from fighting (Bandstand)

Raon singing Opportunity (Annie)

GoD singing What Tim Wants/Flashbang Jane (whatever that song is called) about Cale/KRS after LSH and CJS die OR Ron singing it to Beacrox after the Molan Family is attacked (Black Friday)
