On Stage

can you list out some of the unhinged things sp has done? im re-reading orv rn and it just genuinely amazes me how seriously i took this guy when his arc came about XD prior to that he was just the silly chill dude that sent weird silly messages lol

sp enjoyer pipeline be like: hehe silly guy -> wow thats terrifying -> he's pathetic actually <3 -> oh he's so sad 😢 -> he's so pathetic <3 -> good for him honestly -> he's so pathetic-

i will try my best to list as many things that i remember but also note that im aware not every message kdj received was sent by him as opposed by the kkomas but i Might overlook some of these since the kkomas are part of him too

sp was shown to like kdj at his most wicked, as he calls it, just for him to call him pathetic in front of yjh. it's okay beloved ik this was crucial to your character development

he finds the idea of yjh impregnating kdj to be ridiculous and then sponsors kdj 600 coins (yes ive checked)

speaking of sponsorships that one time he basically mocked the constellations of silla by sponsoring kdj the coins that mjw was trying to give to kdj lol he's a shit disturber at heart (his 666th turn exists after all)

he also congratulated kdj when he became sys's sponsor (isnt he cute) and then kdj went on a tangent about how theres no way sp is ordinary cuz no glucose guardian can possibly be weak and ordinary regardless of the simple titles

he can comfort a sad swk and gossip about joongdok to uriel (well probably kkomas but REGARDLESS theres at least one kkoma thats a fudanshi. thats enough for me)

he crashed the constellation banquet like it was nothing. shit disturber as i said

when fourth wall is deactivated briefly, sp 'snaps' at the outer gods/great ones trying to spy on kdj while simultaneously spying on kdj himself

he sacrificed his fingers in order to save kimcom and when kdj tried to "rebel" like !!what if i dont do what you want? he went i still have more fingers left. like kdj bestie ur not winning an argument against him rn

he showed up in white, a color yjh very much "detests" and kidnapped kdj in front of yjh. not only that but he also mocked yjh's powerlessness while he was at it. it's the way the only reason sp hates this version of yjh is bcs he has kdj and he didnt for me

he's created 1.8k+ chibi dolls of himself

next is the 2nd kidnapping. can you call it unhinged if one of your exes shows up at your door and she immediately realizes that theres someone you desperately want to protect even after ruining so many worldlines?? idk tis up to yall

when he mentioned to poseidon that he has already killed him 25 times just for shits and giggles and then proceeded to kill him again

when astronaut yjh was abt to die and sp shows up like "bitch u wish for that luxury" "anw this will be the last time i save your weakass cuz unlike you i actually got a kdj to take care of. bye lmao"

anw this got longer than i anticipated but here it is. my lil list of sp's unhinged moments. im pretty sure I've missed a few here and there but this guy is mentioned like 800 times in the novel and i dont have the patience to look through it all without getting distracted

Orv is suchhh a good fandom for fan analysis and meta and theories like what we do here on tumblr, because it IS that deep and you ARE meant to be reading into it, unlike a lot of other writers of media with big fandoms who seem to actively despise their fans and people analysing their work. I'm talking about bbc sherlock and supernatural here mainly, not to name names. Both of those have themes and motifs that you could read into, and many do, but it feels like you are stubbornly fighting against the writers to enjoy their work, rather than working with them to explore it to it's fullest.

But not orv. Here they even acknowledge the ridiculous nature of what they are trying to do with orv, and the critisisms a skeptic might have.

and here is what Sing Shong responds with through Han Sooyoung, but speaking directly to YOU.

You're MEANT to be reading into it!!! even IF the authors didn't intend something, it doesn't matter, because death of the author!!!!

So when you're looking at orv through the lense of freudian psychoanalysis or whatever you're DOING IT RIGHT! Sing Shong respect and allow this, and that's such a unique thing I've never gotten from another fandom before.

the problem with reading and writing leading to a strong vocabulary is that you tend to know the vibe of words instead of their meanings.

if I used this word in a sentence, would it make sense? absolutely. if you asked me what it meant, could I tell you? absolutely not.

[JoongDok/ORV] A solution

don't do this to me

YJH 0th turn: I'm not interested in men. I have a wife. Weve been together for decades. We take care of orphans. All of my companions are alive. We got the endings we wanted and I managed to live a happy and fulfilling life.

YJK 0th turn: But I will jump into the Torment Nexus for an unimaginable amount of time just to get a chance to see you again one more time.

KDJ: what.

YJH 0th turn: what.

The confusion 😭😭
