the ending is the reason that got me wanting a second part 😭 your mind is insane. entire fic had me doubting everything every 3 lines. I get why hanbin was having his own mental turmoil like i was on edge myself. it's like I know what's about to happen until I'm so wrong, I kept doubting my own thoughts and had a hanbin moment like "there's no way hao did all of that" i couldn't trust him in the end myself too 😭 half expected hanbin to run away until oh? he's back again??? but somehow I get him??? but he's pissing me off with that decision nevertheless?? like every 3 lines there's a different plot twist that shifts my line of thinking and I'm wrong every time 💀 the public wants to know how things are going to go for them??? was hao even telling the truth in the end??? HOW DID HE EVEN COME ACROSS HANBIN??? 😭 does hanbin join him in whatever crimes he commits later?? does hao actually takes them somewhere far and become decent civilians??? and i fear if you do in fact write a second part it's going to be the complete opposite of all scenarios i have in mind just like this fic was 😭
in conclusion: I love your mind and I love you and I'll be thinking about this fic for a while. thank you ❤️

ah i see what you mean! i really did have a lot of fun constructing the story, even though it was difficult and tough. i feel like theres really something mesmerizing about being an author and being able to just... DO things because it really opens my eyes like oh! if you want this to be true, then its true! and i think everyone showing it a lot of love was very encouraging, so thank you so much :) as for the story itself, i do have a lot of ideas about what hao's 'canon' lore would consist of, and his desires/motivations/thoughts and stuff, but i really think at the end of the day, i just cant decide. i love all of the theories though! it really makes me realize that a world is out there for the discovery and everyone interprets things differently!
so, at the moment i dont have a sequel planned, but this stylistic of morally grey story was something interesting to explore, so it will likely be something i try again in the future!
