so i’m predicting it’ll be on the 5th. not too early, not too late.
LMAO what a sore loser
are words physical? i think they are. when you read them, you feel an emotional response. #deep
maybe books are prophecies. like this story here about zombies. maybe we’ll go through a zombie outbreak.
i wonder what jinwoo means in korean.
what if guwon has been dead this whole time & this is his afterlife trial?
no but seriously… what’s stopping the villagers from turning on everyone
i feel like the vet has main villain energy but in a quiet, manipulative way
jinwoo’s too calm. like suspiciously calm. something’s not adding up
maybe the village is a simulation & the children are the only real beings here
i wonder if the author dreams this up or plans it like a blueprint. if it’s the former, then that’s lit. #based
imagine guwon joins the villagers after finding out the truth #plottwist
is betrayal contagious? asking for a friend
ok but what if the outbreak was caused by the father. just saying…
why does nobody talk about food in these plots. like what are they eating??
i think the next arc will be about loyalty. the update better be something poetic.
i had a dream last night that kind of fits this story. should i drop the lore?
theory: jinwoo is immune. that’s why the vet wants him close (this one is really good).
if someone dies next chapter, it’s gonna be brutal. i can feel it.
this reminds me of a greek tragedy. everyone’s doomed, they just don’t know it.
Being moral is good and all, but when you are living in a dying world with resources that runs up quicker than you can say kumbayah, only the ruthless makes it to the end. Every hero is seen as a genocidal maniac from those that they've overpowered, even in modern times, a lot of those with psychopathic/sociopathic tendencies achieve greatness in life.
I find this development to be a good one, instead of making the ML a flat, strong but sensitive type of generic lead, author actually gave him backbones that make sense to his character profile- he's the leader of a dystopian group, for goodness sake, when everything is messed up and scarce, people do tend to go to the extremes just to survive, also what was he supposed to do? if he spared him at the last minute, that would be showing favor which would 1. decrease loyalty from his followers who tried their best to adhere to the laws themselves, 2. create animosity for the spared "criminal" from the other townsfolk (because why was he spared and not the others?) and 3. show weakness to the leader - if he can do it once for someone, then others could just pull a sob story and use it to justify going against the law.
Everything's cyclical anyway, once this extremity reaches a boiling point it is bound to pop. Maybe the kid will take revenge, maybe the MC will lead a rebellion against the ML, maybe they both lose their minds in the end. This story can go multiple ways and I find that's what makes it really interesting so far.
