    Summary

    Matthew was different, he knew that. He was told his "differences" was a gift. That he should be thankful to God for said "gift". But Matthew says otherwise, no, this "gift" was not a gift, it was a curse.

    (TL:DR - Matthew trying to accept his differences, as well as the apostles. How will it go?)
    (This does not want to add or remove anything to the Bible, it is based on the show)

    Summary

    “I’m not a prostitute,” The man sitting in the small plastic chair opposite Junho’s work desk repeated.

    Junho glanced up from the arrest form he was filling out on his computer and studied him. Seong Gihun, age forty-three, resident of Ssangmun-dong. The system showed his only living relative to be his elderly mother. There were numerous citations on file for money issues mostly, but no prostitution. Oh, and today was his birthday.

    “Officer,” the man said, wringing his hands like an old woman and rocking in his seat, “I swear.”

    Junho took his fingers off the keyboard and crossed them over his desk. “Ajusshi, I have you on video without your pants in a popular love hotel.”

    Alternative Universe where no one gets hurt.

    Summary

    One cruel thumb forces his mouth open and any thoughts quickly die in his mind. He feels his far-back teeth being revealed, the air drying his gums and rendering his syllables unintelligible.

    “You placed your life in my hands when you decided to come back, 456.” It’s the first time that evening that he’s been called by his number. He feels like a mutt in a kennel, backed into a corner and terrified of inexorable chemical euthanization.

    In a near-reverent manner, the man traces his thumb one-by-one over the ridges of his upper teeth, piercing it intently on a canine, like worshipping silently to a strand of prayer beads. Gi-hun tastes blood in his mouth and it tastes like a pact. “You are mine. And mine alone.”

    In the moments following the death of Jung-bae, Gi-hun is taken into the Frontman's quarters. He feels like a specimen observed beneath fluorescent lights through microscopes; a deer stalked by a wolf. But he can do it right back.

    This is the waltz between two men, equally curious and equally ready to kill. Gi-hun is willing to go to any lengths to disarm his adversary. Only— how far is too far?

    Summary

    “Do you have questions?” Young-il asks, which is rather kind of him, considering it all. So many things were kind of him. Gi-hun stares at the speckles of blood near his lips and imagines him digging flat molars into tender flesh.

     

    “No.” His voice is already hoarse. When they torture him, he won’t even have the chance to plead.

    Gi-huns little insurrection doesn’t go over particularly well. As always, it’s the house that wins.
