coming back to reread this masterpiece and ugh, I seriously admire this author as a writer—their characters are so well written and have so much depth and vividness, even if it's just a minor character or a side character they all feel so full of life. not to mention how nothing feels wasteful, every story beat every clue every piece of dialogue is so deliberately placed that the mystery works so well and more importantly when we unravel the tangled up threads along with the characters we similarly feel the same pain and emotions they go through. I just love how taekin has such strong narrative presence and how subverting us and heechan's expectations is instrumental to knowing about him but also growing as people. like urgh I feel so ogre can't identify remorse of consciousness in ulysses right now but like this is such a brilliant story. it really makes me appreciate the medium of art as a vital core to human life
