word association.



1. Post a top level with a single word.
2. Respond to other prompts with words your character associates w/the chosen word.
3. Keep trading words back and forth until one character can't reply using just one word.
4. Shenanigans!

[ Hojin looks at his brother, seeing him and seeing someone else there. He suddenly gets a little teary, because he misses his brother, but at the same time, Hojoon is, and it's very confusing, at a time that's already very confusing. ]

I'm - I'm sorry.

Why?

[he's not playing the game, it's a genuine question.]

You have nothing to be sorry about, Hojin.

Because... because I don't know what to do. Because I want you to be... you, and I think it probably hurts you. And I never, ever want that.

I am me. I'm just not him.

[that's the problem and hojoon knows it. but even if he's not him, he is still a brother. hojin's brother.]

Don't worry, I'm used to it. And it won't be long before the eclipse. You'll all have him back then.

But that doesn't feel fair either! [ Hojin exclaims. He's emotional these days, sorry. ]

Because then you'll be alone again.

[it's okay, hojoon is definitely more emotional than joon. he frowns at those words, but not for the reason hojin might think. he had prepared himself to be alone. he had felt alone even before he left that house.

or so he'd thought. because being here, in this house, he'd felt more alone than ever.]


I'm...I've been thinking that I need to go back. There. To that house.

Will you be okay, there? If you go back.

[ Hojin frowns. He understands, he does, but at the same time, Hojoon is his brother. In any universe, Hojoon is his brother, and he does not know how to make things right for him. With him.

Could he not have both versions of him here? That seems selfish.

With a soft breath, he looks at Hojoon, and steps slightly closer. ]


Do you want to - feel them? They're moving, right now. [ He rubs a hand over his belly as he asks, all gentle. ]
