A REMIX FOR ME!! THANK YOU! where do i start…i am still in shock at the direction in which you took this. i think initially i’d imagined mingyu to be a sort of sacrifice that jeonghan takes for himself (altar, goddess, all that) and that he was a bit of a loner hunter living in the woods, so he had no one. given that none of those details were in the fic itself, i figured that’s where the ambiguity came in. but you took advantage of it and expanded this world so much with a few more characters and details about their backgrounds and the world and life that existed outside of the woods. i never imagined. this is so great.
SEUNGCHEOL CHILD OF APHRODITE. i love how you took the implication that jeonghan had snared multiple others before and ran with it and seungcheol and this whole twist was the result. so cool. op your brain! also, i’m curious: what happened on Aeaea? any connection to circe and odysseus?
also the repetition of “jeonghan knows best” (*sings mother knows best under my breath*) and the hints of dogboyisms re: He had done what Jeonghan wanted him to, and poured the contents of certain vials into the palace drinking wells. It was very hard! He had to find it in the dark. this made me chuckle haha.
and the final twist!!! i had to reread it several times before my brain caught up. did mingyu do it on his own or did jeonghan make him! also this: Seungcheol whips to Jeonghan, “Save him.” / Jeonghan sounds stunned, “Impossible, I saw you drink. That was my strongest concoction.” it’s interesting how sc’s demand was that jeonghan save mg, but jh’s first response was that it’s impossible sc wasn’t under his spell, implying that mg was never his first priority. so cold and godlike. AHHH. op thank u so much for this remix. it’s brilliant and you’ve added so many layers to this plot and world!!
