THANK YOU @neatnete FOR TALKING WITH ME ABOUT ORV AND SVSSS

Thinking about Plotter and Bingge doing monthly meetings with wine to discuss how they weren't chosen by their readers and have to talk it out while all the kkomas and Bingge's wives hang out.

Han Sooyoung and Shang Qinghua being friends as they make fun of their readers and protagonists.

Kim Dokja seeing how tragic and interesting Shen Jiu is, Bingge new to this type of heartbreak while Plotter has lived a very long time to understand and move on.

And of course Uriel and Liu Mingyan being THE BEST of friends writing fics about everything together ✨️

Continuation to this post now with part 2 events

Remember that time Cale became a purifier in another world

Or the time Cale, Choi Han and Raon couldn't steal the things from this one room because there was too much stuff so they resulted into taking the room, walls and all

Or that time Cale got called a skinny guy by this evil blood cultist

Or that time Cale became a Grand Duke of the North romantasy manhwa style

Or that time Cale ate another rock to get a timer power up for his water power

Or that one time Cale became a half demonic mob boss in a videogame

Or that one time Cale tattled with a bright smile on his face like a toddler to Eruhaben that this one weird dragon wanted to eat him

Or that one time Cale locked in a room his best friend and his other best friend, who also happens to be his first best friend's parental uncle once removed, so they could resolve their shit and fight it out, but he also got a chair to sit down and also their friends to watch the show live because it was gonna be so entertaining

Or that one time Cale was gonna give a speach at an academy, but he got a jinx that casues something to happen every time he tries to give a speech, which resulted in one of the main antagonists literally teleporting to their world to attack that one academy and also make Cale say the one line he hates saying most

Or that time a very handsome demon was running towards Cale and instead of running away, Cale just stood there admiring his looks

Or that one time Cale literally locked eyes mid paused battle with the very evil equally stunned guy to ask 'WTF??' because Lock just accidentally ate a flame and none of them knew how to proceed

WHAT EVEN IS TCF ANYMORE!?!?!

On the topic of birthdays...

We don't know the Original Cale Henituse's birthday, but just imagine the Henituse Family celebrating Cale's birthday. And Cale has to awkwardly play along even though he knows it isn't HIS birthday they're celebrating. While the Henituse Family is also awkward because it's been years since they got to celebrate Cale's birthday properly, but they wanted to take the chance this time now that they've gotten closer (except it's too late now). But they notice Cale's discomfort throughout the entire celebration even though he tries to hide it. Things snowball from there.

Or maybe when the day comes, Cale isn't aware that it's his body's birthday. So while everyone else is dropping hints about it being a special day, Cale is just confused about why they're acting so weird. It eventually leads the Henituse Family to misunderstand thinking Cale got so busy during or after the war that he forgot his own birthday.

(After Cale realizes, he'd also send Kim Rok Soo a gift via the God of Death. Fortunately, no churches were harmed after that conversation, but only a god's pride.)

This also works vice versa with the Original Cale Henituse in Kim Rok Soo's body. Maybe the Original Kim Rok Soo wasn't known to celebrate his birthday (with other people, or at all). So Kim Rok Soo doesn't even realize anything weird that day, except the increasing glances sent his way by his team members and other people from the company ("The team leader still went to work today even though it's his birthday…sighs"). Kim Rok Soo only finds out by the end of his shift, when he's about to go home to his niece but is stopped by someone unexpectedly giving him a small gift.

(The next time he meets with Choi Jung Soo, he asks the guy to send his birthday greetings to the man he swapped bodies with, along with a birthday card drawn by his niece. ("I don't know about over there, but I found out it was your birthday here on Earth. Happy Birthday, Cale.")) (Extra: Choi Jung Soo becomes nostalgic after remembering all his shared birthdays with Kim Rok Soo, before remembering all the birthdays Kim Rok Soo spent by himself after their deaths.)

Or, the other characters find out it was Choi Han's birthday (not knowing it's also Cale's birthday). Everyone helps to plan a birthday party, with Cale even giving Choi Han a gift during the celebration ("I wasn't able to give you a gift last time, so…Happy Birthday, Choi Han.").

Once the celebration was over, or maybe when everyone else was too busy to hear or disturb the two of them, Choi Han was the first to greet Cale a happy birthday ("…Happy birthday to you too, Cale-nim. Kim Rok Soo."). Of course, Alberu does not forget to secretly give both his instructor and his dongsaeng gifts as well, aka, "a happy birthday to the two punks who gave me headaches".

((There's also an easy solution to this entire thing: Original Cale Henituse's birthday was ALSO on November 8. Now we have 5 people sharing the same birthday.))

My greatest regret is I can't make a single dang art. I wanna draw the Chois so bad I have no artist hands so take my words instead:

Choi Jung Gun - looks 15, is ???? years old

- low-key stalker

- the OG scammer

- edgelord supreme (has the magical girl transformation and everything)

- did one (1) respectable thing and that's beating GoD w/ a broom 👏👏👏

Choi Han - looks 17, is around 100 years old

- calls the 15 y/o "uncle"

- shonen protag in another life

- viciousness is inversely proportional to his acting skills

- most comfortable taxi service as recommended by Cale Henituse. Five stars.

Choi Jung Soo - looks 20+, is 30+ years old

- calls the 15 y/o "grandpa" and the 17 y/o "uncle"

- golden retriever energy

- cinnamon roll, too good for this world, too pure

- except when he laughs at Cale's slacker life. Which, valid.

More of my old tcf fanart from insta :3

Number 6 is kind of a random post!

Random things that I frequently forget exist and are canon in Tcf/lcf

1. Choi Han canonically has three ancient powers.

2. The exact words Eruhaben used to describe Cale’s face are “a bit fancy.” What’s even better is, from that phrase alone, Alberu is immediately able to deduce that it is Cale he is talking about.

3. Rasheel beat the crap out of Dorph and the lion was never heard from again(not in any significance or that I remember anyway. It’s been a hot minute since I read the end of part 1).

4. Ron and Beacrox never had their housewarming party. Cale and Raon even said they would bring gifts.

5. Alberu has other half siblings aside from Robbit and the third prince(who still doesn’t have a name).

6. Lee Chul Min of Earth 1 became a guild leader.

7. Hubesha exists. Add onto that, Priest Gersey exists(I know, I know, they are major antagonists in the later parts of part 1, but it’s been a while ok?)

8. Cale left a priest robe for Clopeh to find, along with a note. Clopeh probably still has it. I’d wager that’s one of the first items on display in the future museum he establishes.

9. (Mentions part 2!!!!!!———>) So far the only person to hide in the ceiling without being uncovered(not undiscovered tho) was that random tail Imperial Prince Adin put on Cale when the Roan envoy arrived at the Empire. This includes xxxx xxxx xxx and Cale himself.

10. Hannah could technically be the youngest swordmaster. Choi Han is over 100 years old and Bud is in his mid thirties. (Of course, that also depends on how skilled Clopeh was at her age too).

11. Cale smacks Beacrox on the head. He then proceeds to dump water on him. He then pats Beacrox’s head with a ‘disgustingly gentle expression.’ Lol.

12. Cale plots his own demise at one point(I could never forget this gem, but every once in a while I just get so surprised that it’s canon and not some sort of crack fic. Not to mention Alberu feeling like he lost to WS because Cale said his cookies were better).

13. Alberu brews tea as a hobby.

14. During the test where Cale is invisible, when they meet Eruhaben but he’s been tricked by the WS/SG, Eruhaben and Raon are about to fight. Meanwhile Cale is, of all places, curled up in a ball between them. Like, why would you just sit there?! Ik he can’t be seen or touched, but still! Also Eruhaben called him a rat. :(

15. On and Cale go on a father-daughter undercover mission disguised as academy students. (I would actually really like to read a fic where they go undercover at an academy in their world, not a crossover or au.

16. Taerang came from Earth 3, right? So hypothetically, since there is a Kim Rok Soo on Earth 1 and 2, does that mean there’s also one on Earth 3? Just something I like to think about. Also, it’s supposedly a mashup of Earth and Cale’s current world, right? So hypothetically speaking, does that mean that both Kim Rok Soo and all of the characters from The Birth of a Hero could possibly exist in one world? I just think that’s cool. I’d like to see that.

17. Cale was gifted an evil sword/dagger from the former Emperor of Mogoru. According to Raon, it has an ‘evil aura.’ Though he does give it back, and I genuinely can’t remember it being of any significance since then.

18. They roleplay going on a walk/ having a picnic in front of the secret entrance to the basement of the Alchemist Bell Tower.

19. Canonically, members of the Penguin tribe apparently waddle around in black outfits and make the best butlers, as stated by Whitiria. Because if that doesn’t scream fantasy cliche I don’t know what does.

20. Cale has two different fears at the beginning and during the war with WS. One is to be the last one alive at the end of the battles, similar to his life as Kim Rok Soo; the other is for his life as Cale Henituse to be just a dream. Both are extremely sad and so like him. It’s not really something I forgot, but it’s also something I think the fandom just doesn’t talk about enough. Like, we all know(and love) to talk about the test on Wind Island, but what about the illusion Elisneh traps him in? To imagine himself waking up as Kim Rok Soo the day after; like all that he experienced, his entire family he built, was all just a dream? That’s heart wrenching. That for me is genuinely one of the most impactful moments in the novel.

Now spoilers for part 2 for those who don’t know what I was talking about on number 9.

///////////////

Cale and Choi Han were discovered in the ceiling by the WS when they sneak into the Dubori territory Capital. Funnily enough though, the only reason Choi Jung Soo was discovered was because he was so shocked by Cale coughing up blood that he was discovered by the Carnage Demon and then they fell through the ceiling.

Edit: I edited some of these cuz they’re not actually accurate. In case anyone’s wondering.

[unadulteratedbluebirdnightmare]

I had a little headcanon

KRS loves holding hands (or just putting his hand in other people, like holding someone arm while talking), It's his love language or a safe place for him

Imagine him in a conversation with lsh or cjs and he suddenly holds his hand

Or even with choi han or alver

He is talking about war strategies with alberu and he unconsciously holds his hand and speaks normally

Or he's talking about where they will go after and describing the place and he holds his hands (choi han is a little bit more emotional because he has the memories of cjs)

[nefarious-looking-banana-duck]

CJS makes the deez nuts jokes, KRS is the victim of deez nuts jokes, LSH laughs at them, and Choi Han doesn't get it

[murasaki-cha]

Tcf novel spoilers

Raon: it's ok I won't have to fight alone, we have lots of companions

Cale: Yes

Raon: I can just run away

Cale: correct

Raon: and come and hit them in back of the head later

Cale: .... Sure

Raon: and scam them!

Cale: wait-

Raon: AND STEAL ALL THEIR MATERIAL POSSESSIONS!

Cale: hold on

Choi Han, Choi Jung Soo and Sui Khan: *trying their damn hardest not to laugh*
