    Summary

    In-ho enters the Game as Player 132 with one fragile hope: to survive and return to the life still waiting for him. But survival carves its own path. Each round strips away something—his ideals, his mercy, his belief in who he is. What begins as a desperate bid to save himself becomes a slow, shattering evolution into something harder, colder… something Il-nam has been watching all along.

    Now, years later, In-ho tells the story for the first time—only to Gi-hun, the man he’s loved for half a decade and raised a daughter with. He wants to believe the past is buried. That the worst of him stayed behind in the Game. But as the memories return, so do the cracks he tried to seal. What he doesn't know is that Gi-hun already sees him—all of him—and never stopped choosing him, even at his most broken.

    Prequel: The Brotherhood Scar

    Summary

    *FIX IT FIC*

    *Under reconstruction - light edits per chapter*

    In-ho makes a different choice before Gi-hun can. He breaks protocol. Starts the evacuation early.

    After the Game, Gi-hun and In-ho are two men carrying the same kind of broken—grief-torn, guilt-heavy, and haunted by the choices that kept them breathing. What begins as excruciatingly fragile proximity deepens into something unshakable: a child who needs them both, feelings neither of them dare to name, and the terrifying, hard-won hope that they might still be worthy of joy. Orbiting the wreckage of who they used to be, they begin again—not cleanly, but together.

    But peace doesn’t come easy. Not when the past hunts them with a badge and a grudge. Not when the line between guilt and forgiveness won’t stay still. As secrets unravel and old wounds split open, Gi-hun and In-ho must fight harder than ever—not for survival this time, but for a future they finally believe they deserve.

    Next chapter : HIATUS until summer (2026)! I haven’t abandoned this fanfic at all, but I have to work on it a bit more to write it with less difficulty!
