Summary
“Her heart, her tired, human heart, was the one part of her body that had not yet failed her.”
A look over one’s shoulder is a simple motion. But what could such a turn mean for the woman doing it? And what could it do to the hellish world around her? Because if Cho Hyun-Ju was anything, it was a force to be reckoned with.
Hyun-Ju turns around as Myung-Gi approaches her in hide and seek, what happens then? What ripple effects would such a thing have on the games and the people participating?
(New chapters release every week)Series

Summary
Worker 007 doesn’t exactly hate the hierarchy. At least he’s able to do something.
He’s on cleanup duty today and the fourth game just ended. The others took the bodies so he has to clean half of the lower floor. As he takes a hose he sees the blood seems almost…fleshy? He takes a mop and pokes it and he feels an umbilical cord.
“What the fu–”
Soldier 009 isn’t happy being the whole middle ground of the pink guards, being below the squares but above the circles.
He and soldier 017 stand at the dorm door when the druggie chick(?) yells at them. When the player doesn’t comply, he throws her(?) to the ground. But then he hears a cry, and he’s sure that he and 017 share one thought.
“Are they deadass right now?”
Manager 004 has worked here for quite a bit, and he’s climbed up the hierarchy. He’s tasked by the Frontman himself. He even drove the man in their limo. It’s probably because he’s easily able to order around the circles and triangles.
He sits at acomputer desk. So few players remain. But one looks a little different. Then he looks closer and almost accidentally erases the footage from how his hand falls onto the controls.
“Is that a goddamn baby?”

Summary
What if Team Thanos had held out for just one more game? Could someone else have survived? Could things have gone differently for Thanos and Nam-gyu? Realistically, it wouldn’t have changed much… but what if it did? What if there was still a chance at a better ending for them and others?

Summary
The lid flew open, making a startling rattle noise as it clattered on the floor. Nam-gyu's breath hitched. His heart raced. There was no way one could mistake that purple hair.
Or
After the 4th game, Hide and Seek, Thanos is returned back to the games after being stabbed in the neck.

Summary
Thanos and Namgyu were in these games together, despite some of their team starting to turn against them, choosing to leave instead of playing another game, they’d be fine as long as they’ve got eachother. (And the pills)

Summary
Namgyu takes the cross and looks at it like it’s the only thing that matters. Technically it does. He sees how the necklace has specks of his blood and he bites his lip to avoid it trembling again.
He looks around to see the dormitory decimated and the X side crumbling after that failed rebellion. The X voters are going to lose again, and everyone knows it.
Namgyu is glad that they will lose. Then he can get his chance. He can do it. He can kill that motherfucker MG Coin. He can stop feeling all this guilt he’s had since the fight in the bathroom. He can finally say he avenged Thanos.
He knows it won’t be easy. Myunggi is unfortunately actually smart. He can’t just sneak up on him. He has to play it safe for now. He has to find a way to eliminate player 333 without breaking the rules and getting shot. He has to make MG Coin think he’s in control.
Namgyu has to make him die, no matter what it takes.

Summary
Nam-gyu goes first in Jump Rope, but things play out differently.
___________________
“Just go in thinking you don’t care if you die,” Min-su advises. Maybe Nam-gyu doesn’t care. Maybe the hard floor isn’t too bad.
He’s been gambling with his life for the past four days. What’s one more time? He could leave with his life and the cross. Or with nothing, but at least it would go by fast. Just one second of panic.

Summary
Thanos couldn’t give a rat’s ass what kind of pathetic face that lowlife MG Coin was pulling. Furious? Repulsed? Didn’t matter one bit. He kinda fucking enjoyed it.
Let him watch. Let him gag on the sight of Thanos carrying the girl he abandoned like the gutless coward he was. MG didn’t have the balls to step up, and Thanos was happy to rub it in his face.

Or where Thanos carried injured Jun-hee on his back during the Jump Rope game. Finalists Thanos and Jun-hee.
