#22.5 Cool down

Agni shifted his focus from Ran to the surrounding scene, listening to the light chatter regarding the game and their tags. To be honest, Agni was expecting them to bombard Bam with questions now that he was nearby, but he was left alone. The air around Bam seemed a little awkward, so maybe that was why. He hoped it'd get fixed in due time.

Still, it was interesting to see the discussion unfold as he took notes on everyone's unique quirks. The swish of Anaak's tail when Isu got uncomfortably touchy as he thanked Anaak for giving him back his tag. The way Endorsi boredly examined her nails when she got asked what she'd use her tags for. Or how Hatz kept his fists clenched but shoulders slouched, a hint that he had something to say but was still waiting for the right moment. Or how the younger him kept glancing at Bam, and Rak called him out on it like the croc wasn't doing the same thing.

Agni missed this, more than he ever thought he would. To be surrounded by the people he trusted, listening to their bickering like all those early years they were together. For so long, he thought it would never be possible anymore. To relieve this distant memory that he almost forgot the feeling of. To be able to witness it with Grace felt truly liberating, like a weight was lifted off his chest as a promise was fulfilled.

This was a big day. Not only for Viole, but for him and Grace as well. They really had worked so hard for this moment of being reunited with everyone again, and Agni could say it paid off.

But of course, it was only the start. They still have a long journey ahead to survive. He'd have to get everyone prepared, lest they end up the same as his previous time. Thinking back to the game, their teamwork could still use a lot of improvement. The way they fought still clashed with each other. The reason why Agni was able to hold out for that long against those fishermen was because he was able to exploit their openings. Were their moves more synchronized and were they more skilled at handling their abilities, he'd have lost if he were to deliberately drag out the fight like earlier.

The reason why he only suggested the game to be ten minutes long was because he had anticipated that he'd be the main target, and he wouldn’t have the stamina to continue longer. Plus using too much of his ice power could be dangerous for everyone, including him.

He blew a puff of warm air into his fist at the thought. His body had finally registered the cold, and his gloves couldn't provide enough warmth to keep his hands from shaking. It was harder to help Ran this way.

He had known that consuming redan could negatively affect Ran's body, but he didn't know it'd be this bad. Highly concentrated lightning shinsu had torn his muscles and burnt his smaller circulatory system. No wonder Ran collapsed right after. Maybe he should take Ran to lay down somewhere more comfortable, while also getting himself something warm.

He scooped Ran up in his arms and stood up, gaining everyone's attention once again. "I'm going to take him to the med bay." 

Shibisu stood up from his seat. "I'll come with you."

Knowing him, Isu likely wanted to make sure that Ran was safe. He had always been compassionate like that, the self-proclaimed dad of their team. Agni wouldn't agree otherwise. However, Agni wasn’t sure if Isu could actually do anything if Agni did have ill intentions.

"M-me too." Bam stood up as well. Khun and Rak followed close behind.

Agni caught Grace's words before he was out of hearing range. "Actually, since we've finished patching up, how about we get lunch?"

#togsecretsanta2024 for Grass! (@/bobbybob12177)

I couldn’t pick between the prompts of Snow fight or firefish heating up chocolate for Bam so I combined them!

Let it be known that team Shibisu put up a fight 🤣

[k-ru-h]

not to get all analytical and stuff, but bam and endorsi shouldn't end up together- not because of bam, or khun, or whoever else you ship with him - but because of ENDORSI.

characters in tog are quite commonly either parallels or foils to the main cast - wangnan wants the role bam was forced into, hatz is the complete opposite of khun, and khun, bam, rachel and endorsi are... well. the general story of bam, khun, and rachel is "person is abused by their family, forms an unhealthy relationship with the first person they recieve genuine affection from, leaves and finds someone else". there are so many parallels between the three of them, its hard to analize their characters without delving into the other's. endorsi... well, shes got everything but the last step. her story ended on the first floor, and shes been begging bam not to leave her for whoever she thinks hes interested in. she has a team of her own - she has aanak - but bam was the first. bam was the first to offer her friendship, the first to show her genuine care, the first person she ever connected with. she didnt have a rachel or a maria or a bam, she only had her abusive family and... bam.

and bam doesn't care about her as much as she cares about him. which is perfectly fine! he doesnt owe her a return of her feelings. but to him, she isnt even *the* friend. he objectively cares about khun and rak more, to the point where its a running gag that he wont even realise shes talking to him if hes already talking to khun. he doesnt become as vulnerable or as trusting as he is with khun when around her. he doesnt revert to the sweet, happy persom he truly is when hes with her, like he does when hes with khun. he cares about her, a lot! but in the same way that he cares about team shibisu or sweet and sour. shes had to fight her entire life to be seen as worthy, shes had to be the strongest and the prettiest or she wouldnt be worth FEEDING. there is no way in hell being in a relationship with a person who shes never going to be the priority for is healthy for her.

she cares about him, a lot, and it goes both ways. but sometimes your loved ones, in any sense of the word, arent the destination, but the bridge. and she deserves someone who she is the number one to, no matter what

THEORY: PARACULE IS PART OF FUG OR REVOLUTION

Hear me out

Paracule makes constant references to revolution all the way in season 1.

Revolution is actually a group affiliated with FUG seeking to bring change to the tower, first mentioned in the Marriage Arc → Paracule could be referencing them.

In season 2 to keep track of Bam’s friends FUG had Ron Mei watching team shibisu via Anaak and Michael + Apple watching Khun and Rachel

For FUG, though, who was watching Rak? Rak was alone on an island → Paracule knew where Rak was and was the one who traveled with him to WSB → was Paracule the Ron Mei for Rak?

Paracule’s silhouette giggling before Ran and Anaak’s fight about it being his turn → seems to run around the arena pointlessly, but then manages to perfectly arrange himself underneath Ran and Anaak and knock them both out in the all-in opportunity.

This just happens to be the one opportunity where every gambler except two, both of whom are FUG, are dropped out → allows the rigged final to melt Bam.

Is the one who stops Bam from running away from Endorsi and Rak, yes, BUT Novick had already arranged to distract the guards and Xia Xia and Reflejo so they wouldn’t get caught → in the next scene Reflejo says that they planned the thorn thingy, but this could also be implying that they PLANNED for Bam to break the deal and make contact first + how would Reflejo know that this happened if he was out and Xia Xia was drunk unless he got outside confirmation?

UNLESS Paracule planned for Rak to storm in and meet with Bam → stops Bam from escaping to force the meeting and thus Bam has broken the FUG deal → now Reflejo can do what he wants without having broken the deal first, AS REFLEJO PLANNED. And Paracule, as the witness, was the one who reported it was successful.

My conclusion: all these coincidences and plot points could possibly be lining up to reveal Paracule was part of FUG or Revolution.

My only other explanation is that Hwaryun somehow foresaw all of this, and accounted for Paracule and told Reflejo, but for Paracule to be this specific in that last action (didn’t arrive with Rak and Ehwa, and I think he isn’t part of Khun’s team either, but still knew where Rak and Ehwa were heading → timed it just in time, not even assessing the situation, to leap right in front of Bam → then immediately leaves with the others as if it was planned) then it’s likely in this scenario Hwaryun worked with him in some way →

either she a) manipulated him to be JUST in time with the right info, OR b) they were working together (and thus Paracule would be working with FUG)

My Thoughts on Tower of God Season 2 Episode 2

So, premiere was great! Now it's time for a slower episode!

WEBTOON SPOILERS WAS TEASED BUT NOT OUTRIGHT STATED

Rating: 8/10

Summary: Music was great! Not much happened as it is meant to be the calm before the storm, but it was still enjoyable! I was a little disappointed over some of the scenes that were skipped but it's not a huge deal-breaker for me.

Always loved Rachel's story to Bam. Because it shows how different they are. Bam finds the story sad, but Rachel sees it as a happy one.

HAHA MY FAV SCENE IS ANIMATED NOW YAY! THIS WAS SO FUNNY.

This scene was always so cute! Miseng giving the "monster" some chocolate, and the "monster" actually accepting it politely. But...i thought she gave chips in the webtoon??? I dont know. I wonder if Viole thought of Rak when he saw that chocolate bar.

Oof I forgot that Prince was a jerk back then

WELL PUT HIM IN THE RING WITH HATZ AGAIN I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THAT. Also it's so cool to see Hatz's name be held with such honour. Team Shibisu really made a name for themselves!

THE GOAT IS HEREEEEEEEEE. Also perfect voice for him! Exactly how I pictured it!

Man they nailed the feeling of dread they're all having over geting so low. I legit felt so sorry for them despite knowing what happens.

ABSOLUTE QUEEN I LOVE HER SIU I BEG OF YOU BRING HER BACK IN THE WEBTOON PLEASE I WANNA SEE HER AGAIINNNN

Hehehe He loves his fried chicken!

And its finally here! The OST was perfect for the build up. Viole just lightly touched it without making a sound and he instantly went to 1st place! Though, i remember Love doing the test as well and still scoring higher, showing that Rankers are still stronger than Viole and forshadowin of what's to come. I wish they kept that in.

I felt a bit sad seeing some anime-onlies finding this scene cringe. But honestly? I love it. Because it shows how unlike most of them, Wagnan KNOWS he's weaker. He KNOWS he needs someone to help him. And he NEEDS to climb the tower no matter what. So he is going to try his absolute hardest to be picked, even if he has to humiliate himself. That's dedication. Usually other stories would show these types of people as pathetic so it makes sense that people found this scene pathetic as well. Just wanted to provide my thoughts on this scene and why I love it so much. Oh and I love how the only people that begged were the ones who NEEDS to climb the tower no matter what.

:(((((((((((((((((((((( Poor Bam.

No thoughts I just love every scene Yihwa is in

BAHAHAHAHA IM SO GLAD THEY AT LEAST KEPT THIS SCENE IN IT WAS SO FUNNY!! (Also Yihwa's VA absolute kills this role I love her performance)

Hmm they skipped the whole bath scene. Tragic but given the amount of episodes for this cour, makes sense.

Honestly looking back at this scene, I didn't realise that it also shows that Viole's doesn't care about eliminating Jahad and the Ten Great Families. If he did, Wagnan would've been so screwed. But he just got his ring back without any further questioning.

Okayyy so that's all I have to say about episode 2. Sorry that I don't have much thoughts about this episode. It was mostly talking. But now, I am caught up with the episodes I have already watched! Episode 3's post will be my most initial thoughts as I will be watching while writing my thoughts!

They are on the 76th floor, aka the Christmas floor. Right in time for Baam's birthday. 

The test is simple, and it is not. The only test is for Khun: his patience when it comes to organising a surprise Christmas-birthday party with other people.

[FAIL: If Baam finds out. RSVP?]

//Merry Christmas everyone, here’s my work for the khunbam nation discord Secret Santa revealed!! For Erika: who asked for a Christmas-birthday fic and Khun getting super stressed about it :DD

Basically... my attempt at a floor fic and it grew out of control again oops.

excerpt below!

They are on the 76th floor, just in time before the season crush begins — where it will be the heart of the stampede that occurs every December.

For it is the Floor of the Saint's Forge — one of the seven headquarters of the Workshop. It is notorious for being ruled by a legendary figure that purportedly hands out A-grade weapons through its tests.

It's a very good way to ensure the Workshop stays in business in this area — land is already cheap up here, in the floor right below Wolhaiksong's, where Baek Ryun's living forest still exerts some of its force.

They say some of the pines can be seen growing through the cracks of the shinsu sky here, tenacious in their age and long curling roots.

Crisp air nips at the skin on his nose, and Khun shivers slightly as he pulls his jacket closer round him. He wasn't a fan of the cold climate here, but there's nothing he can do about it but grit his teeth and stay there till they've got what they've come for.

They're also right in the Christmas season, how irritating. Bright lights and neon ads flashed everywhere to lure in the storm of Regulars sure to come.

Their test admin is also irritatingly nowhere to be found. Apparently, according to information from the lightbearers' network, they insisted on remaining scarce, and could only really be found at night, following the lead of that legendary Ruler of theirs. Most irritating.

Hence why in the meantime, they were living on this floor. It wasn't a bad place to be — there was easy access to supplies, and there were blissfully quiet cottages available for accommodation.

Most of all, Baam seemed to really like this floor.

From the moment they had stepped in here, his eyes had perked up and he had never stopped looking round in clear fascination. The trees going up, with all their gaudy decorations had arrested his attention, and he could stop in front of the displays for long, whether they were strings of stars in between lanes or murals of choirs of angels.

The mini snowmen and reindeer would bring a little smile of awe if he noticed them dancing about in displays or on cards, or if he heard the holiday's carols blasting out of shopfronts to the peal of bells.

It's definitely the smell of gingerbread wafting on the breeze, and the sight of rows of peppermint canes that stopped him longest in his stride.

The wonder of it on his face. Khun couldn't help but smile seeing it.

"What's the name of this festivity again, Khun?" Baam asks, catching up to where he and Rak were waiting behind the others. The little smile, still on his lips. It was perhaps the happiest he'd seen Baam in a while.

It occurred to Khun then that Baam had, most likely, never taken part of this kind of festive holiday. There are no holidays for gods, after all. Not in particular for those on the run.

"Christmas." He finds the words after a while. "When people celebrate the birth of a sun god or indulge in mass revelry with gift-giving. I never celebrated it much." Rak gawks at him also, but pretends not to just as immediately. He didn't hide his smile at that. It seemed this was something they all had in common after all.

Baam blinks a few times, pace slowing. "I think I might have heard of it before," he says finally.

Khun shrugs the easy joke of you've been living under a rock off, "Hard not to with Quant Blitz's face everywhere." He points out, the ranker's grinning mug on a billboard selling fried chicken. This one even has one of those red hats on his head, whether it's real or edited in.

Rak snorts out long and loud at that, and then growls, "We're looking for these test admin turtles," and the subject is closed then

Later, Khun does point out where on the pocket calendar the holiday falls to him, and tucks away the little grateful smile Baam directs towards him, along with the pang of warmth it brings.

BAM’S COMPANIONS - SEASON 2

Welcome back TOG and SIU-nim!! To commemorate, here is a messy offering. Ik some of them have multiple positions or have no official position, so I just categorize them based on functions and/or aesthetics lol

[comcoit]

Nononononono he just came back

Plz just resurrect somehow

[deiaiko]

#22.4 Result

Even though his team had more members, Khun did not anticipate the speedster in Agni's team who managed to steal the princesses' tags in just a few seconds. Basically leave half of his team's fishermen immobile right from the start.

Khun managed to stop Dan with lighthouse flow control, and Rak was able to steal Dan's black tag. Yet Agni managed to undo the flow control and free Dan before Rak could take back the tags that Dan had stolen.

Endorsi was then given Laure's tag and fought with Gyetang, while Anaak was given Shibisu's tag and fought Agni along with Rak. Ran didn't lose his tag and had been countering Novick since the start of the game. Surprisingly, they seemed to be on par with each other. Khun didn't know who won by the end, since he was too busy trying to catch Dan, who managed to steal Hatz's tag at one point. 

Suddenly, his lighthouse was no longer being interfered with by Agni, and only then he saw that Endorsi had joined hands to fight Agni after rendering Gyetang immobile. With Agni's attention diverted by three main powers, Khun was finally able to immobilize Dan. However, he only managed to retrieve one white tag, since all the other stolen tags were already handed over. He gave the white tag to Hatz to get him back into the game, but by that time Gyetang was also back on his feet, so they were sent to fight each other.

Ten minutes went by too fast. Khun slumped to the floor and finally took some deep breaths. Clearly, Agni's team didn't go easy on them, and he was lucky enough to keep his tag. 

"I see you've given your best." Agni said as he caught Ran in his arms before he fell face flat onto the floor. Ran must've swallowed the lightning pill halfway through the fight, and Khun didn't really know how to feel about that.

Khun looked up to the second floor balcony where Bam and Grace were talking. He could feel the corner of his lips pull up when he saw Bam looking bashful as Grace ruffled his hair.

"Gather up everyone," Agni called them, still holding Ran's limp body. He looked like he was about to pass out himself, though. Handling both princesses and Rak all by himself while still assisting his other team members was really impressive in Khun's opinion, even if it was only for ten minutes. 

Everyone, including Agni's team, sat down in a loose circle, exceptions being Ran who was laid down in front of Agni and being tended to, and Laure who was sleeping soundly on the floor behind Hatz. Most of the others looked worn out and some were even hiding a limp, but the moment Gyetang and Dan started to excitedly recount and compliment everyone, his team was easily drawn into the conversation.

Bam and Grace came to join them a moment later, bringing bottled water and a first aid kit. Grace offered to check on each one of them, which unsurprisingly started from Agni. Though Khun declined his offer when it was his turn. He didn't get any bone-shattering hits, so he was fine. Grace didn't look happy with it, but he moved on.

Meanwhile, Bam distributed the water, bandages and ointment. Then he decided to go sit near him and Rak, to Khun's delight. It felt like their missing puzzle piece was finally fitted back into place. 

"It's nice…to be with everyone again." Bam mumbled to himself, yet Khun heard him clearly. And so did their friends, who were looking at Bam wistfully.

Bam was holding his knees that were folded close to his chest, making him look small and closed up. Golden eyes were shadowed from view by his long bangs. It was like there was still an invisible wall that divided him from everyone else, keeping him unreachable. Khun itched to touch him, to get rid of that wall and pull Bam back to him, to what they used to have.

There was so much yet so little to talk about, and Khun felt himself hesitating, especially with this many eyes on Bam. He finally understood why Agni set the tag prizes as is.

Khun touched Bam's arm with his fist, and smiled tiredly when Bam turned his head at him. "It's good to have you back, Bam." 

Many emotions flashed in those golden eyes; disbelief, fear, sadness, hurt, longing, relief, joy. Even though he had heard the story from Bam, Khun still couldn't imagine how much suffering Bam had gone through during all those years they were apart. How lonely he must be, and there was nothing Khun could do to fix what had been done. But when Bam finally smiled back, crooked like he just fixed himself back together, Khun vowed that he'd never let anyone take anything away from Bam ever again.
