Summary
Gi-hun is exhausted. He has been searching nonstop for a year. He needs to talk to someone.
Maybe posting on a random account isn't such a bad idea.______
The idea is that the plot is an ARG for the characters, not for the reader! So let's follow Gi-hun's Twitter, who this time was smarter and used his money to gather evidence before reporting it. But he's overwhelmed, and he needs to talk about what's been going through his mind over the past few days. -

Summary
Christmas Eve was never meant to be spent in an airport.
When delayed flights strand Gi-hun, In-ho, and their small, chaotic circle in Fukuoka, exhaustion and frustration threaten to unravel what little patience remains. Between looping Christmas music, sleepless hours, and a baby far from home, the night becomes a test of love, responsibility, and the quiet fear of letting someone down.
As plans fall apart and tempers flare, they are forced to slow down, improvise, and hold onto one another—learning that family is not defined by perfect timing, but by staying when leaving isn’t an option.

Summary
Gas fills the car, fills Gi-hun’s lungs, and he fights for consciousness, but he is tired, and it is far easier to give in and fall asleep than it is to be awake. It is easier to pray that when he awakens, it will all have been a dream, and he will wake up as a kid again. There will be Jung-bae, and there will be Sang-woo. And when they rush out to the playground, they will play only for their pride, and not for their lives.
Seong Gi-hun closes his eyes, and falls asleep.
When he wakes up, he is still in the car, but everything is different.
---
After winning the games, Gi-hun is knocked out in a limousine. When he wakes up, he finds himself in the body of the Front Man- the man behind the games. To make matters worse, the Front Man is in Gi-hun's body.

Summary
Gihun wasn't sure what was keeping him going most days.
Was it his need for justice for the innocent people who lost their lives in the games? For their families? Was it revenge? For the state, his even more fucked up body was in?
He wasn't sure anymore. The only thing he knew for sure was that at night when the memories of his friends haunted him again. When his body ached for the comfort of a missing pup or mate, that voice would reappear.“You should have got on that plane.”
He was going to hunt him down.
"I'll find you, hyung."

Summary
The darkness thickened below, no longer street, no longer stone. Just an endless black that opened to swallow him whole.
Gi-hun closed his eyes. Not in fear. Not in surrender. In clarity.'Give me another chance, he thought. Just one more. I won’t be naïve this time. I won’t fail them again.'
The roar of the wind thinned into silence. The faces faded, the contradictions dimmed, only the word “complicated” came to his mind. There was only the vow, burning bright in the dark.
Then — nothing.
Or
My take on the Time Travel Fix-it for the half-ass open-ending we got as the series finale.

Summary
In-ho never considered himself a good man.
He saw the world as it was. This was necessary in his job as a police officer. If he had hidden behind naive thoughts and the belief that there was good in everyone, he wouldn't have made it this far.
He saw the world in all its glory. Humanity at its lowest point, at the very edge from which there was no turning back.
In-ho crossed that line.
Because these games were far worse than he could have ever imagined.
Now only a shell remains of his list. Nothing seems to belong to him anymore. He has failed as the brother, son, husband, and father he never became.
If life is no longer his, it will be filled with hatred. Hatred is the only thing he can call his own. He will turn it into a weapon he will aim at this man.
The white mask of the Frontman will fall at his feet, even if he has to die standing.
Revenge is not a choice.
It is a need.
___
Maybe we are just born cursed by fate.
There has to be someone to blame.
Isn't that right, dad?

Summary
Of course, everyone knew about the famous model and actor Seong Gihun, only people who lived under a rock were oblivious about him. He was captivating, to say the least. Fans would swoon over every breath that idiot took, a bottle of air labelled 'Seong Gihun's air' would go for millions if anyone dared. Inho couldn't blame them though, this man was certainly attractive.
But aren't most celebrities? He didn't find Gihun's well built body or annoyingly adorable face anything unordinary. Besides, celebrity crushes were such a waste of time; they usually don't know you even exist.

Or, the crossover between mutants and humans, the rivalry between Gi-hun and In-ho fighting for two ideals that differ in their methods but seek to defend mutants.
Enemies, rivals, or perhaps there is still a fire burning between them?

Summary
"I propose we'll take turns, player holding the gun gets to ask one question per turn" he leaned forward, sending a warm smile "if they don't blow their brains out first, of course."
Or: What if Junho found the recruiter before meeting Gi-hun again in s2?
Not expecting how much it's gonna change the trajectory of his life, he confronts the man.This is a SLOW slow burn, the *actual* romantic feelings don't start until chapter 14, the first 13 chapters are just them beging enemies with a lot of sexual tension <3

Summary
In a good world where the Games don't exist and the tragedies that strike are as real as wild nightmares, Seong Gihun still manages to capture the attention of many, many people. Not that the man would know, he's just trying to do his job as Hwang Inho's secretary. But to the rest of his adoring (i.e. obsessed) fans, they'd like for him to very much stop being Inho's secretary and to instead be theirs.
So perhaps there is one more game left in this world to play.
The game for Gihun's heart.

Summary
"I might keep some souvenirs." Gi-hun's fingers ran through the salesman's hair. "Even though it’s your game that failed you, I'll treat it as if I killed you myself."
Gi-hun leaned over, still with that tone: "You're my first victim, so I get to do whatever I want with what’s left of you. Do you understand?"
