Did I Dive Into The Song Of Achilles Headfirst Knowing Its Ending?

Did I dive into ‘The Song of Achilles’ headfirst knowing it’s ending?

Yes.

Did I expect to end up this broken?

No.

Do I regret it?

No.

But I sure as hell regret not being able to climb into the book to kill Pyrrhus.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 24

- means skipped sentence(s)

“There are hero’s on this side. The stage will be smashed.”

Yoo Jonghyuk glanced at me and frowned.

I feel like Jonghyuk would be the type to not take compliments from his significant other well.

“...you aren’t gentle at all.”

“There is no time to waste.”

😏oh

[By the way, the Underworld King sent you all the way here? That Ahjussi is really stern.]

“Shut up. Open your mouth one last time and I will cut it off.”

[What? Do you want to fight? You want to play?] —

“Yoo Jonghyuk. Don’t use your power here, don’t you know?”

Kim Namwoon smacked his lips as he saw Yoo Jonghyuk raising his sword. He looked like a child as he breathed excitement. A child that hadn’t received attention and was left alone.

Jonghyuk as a dead beat dad and Dokja as the good pap again.

“Kim Dokja.”

“What is it?”

Yoo Jonghyuk gazed at me before speaking in a low voice, “it’s nothing.”

Something out of a KDrama

There was only one hero in Olympus who had to be careful of his heels. Troy’s sorrow, Achilles.

I screeched when I realized this. I hadn’t read The Song of Achilles in my first read of ORV, but now...it wasn’t even the real him tho-

I raised my hand to restrain Yoo Jonghyuk and Yoo Jonghyuk stared at me with a dreadful expression.

[The character Yoo Jonghyuk has activated ‘Three Restraints’ Lv. 10]

I love how Jonghyuk has all this trust in Dokja. And are we really surprised that he has this skill?

I watched Anna Croft with a strange sense of triumph...I didn’t know why I felt the need to bully this person every time we met.

Oh I think we all know why :)

I asked Yoo Jonghyuk, “Can you pick up two people?”

[You are not satisfied with 1 and want me to do 2?]

“Can you do it?”

[Would you care if I say I can’t?]

Out of context: OT3?

Then Surya stood up. Kim Dokja glanced at him and said , “Surya. You sit down too.”

Surya sat down again.

I love how Dokja seems to turn everyone into an obedient puppy.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 19

- means I skipped sentence(s)

Before I could ask what he meant, Biyoo popped out of Yoo Jonghyuk’s arms. —

Biyoo threw the doll into the air and entered my arms. I stroked her head a few times before asking —

This is domestic fluff. It gives me ‘super-hero-dad-brings-kidnapped-baby-back-home-to-the-worried-mom vibes’

“Where the hell did you go?”

“I went to the vicinity of Melledon.”

“Why there...”

“There was an item I had to obtain.”

“Item? What is it?”

“You don’t need to know.”

‘Yoo Jonghyuk, that cheating bastard’

“Yoo Jonghyuk!”

Yoo Jonghyuk glanced this way from where he was surrounded by constellations.

[You’re late.]

‘Youre late’ s such a romantic dialogue for me.

Like a gourmet long starved of meat, I cut every sentence into pieces and relished them.

“That jerk was really cute at the time.”

0.oH-

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

“Wake up.”

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

Dang- my dad actually fainted once (two years ago) and my mom panicked and did this...

The ines of his face changed but it was clearly Yoo Jonghyuk. No, it was even more than before. Yoo Jonghyuk’s gaze stayed on Kim Dokja’s face for a bit.

“Take him away.”

So I’m kinda confused. Is Jonghyuk’s spiritual gender more feminine or something? Or is it a mistranslation? Is it because being a female gives Jonghyuk’s beauty more respect?

And lol. His top priorities are still to keep Dokja from seeing him and a ‘her’

He saw Kim Dokja on Lee Hyunsung’s back.

Yoo Jonghyuk gripped the Black Demon sword that was slipping from his hands.

This seems...y’know...out of context.

Dokhyuk Moments: Part 27

- means skipped parts

The fourth, the fifth...the timelines that might have experienced, but a certain someone’s unexpected words stopped him from regressing again.

:)

Yoo Jonghyuk got ready to escape from here.

[Demon King of...Sal...va...tion]

Indeed, he’s have left of it weren’t for these words.

And then he kills Michael right after 💀

“I told you this before, haven’t I? I shall be the one to kill Kim Dokja. Stop your unnecessary actions.”

Ahhhh this ship dynamic.

Completely disregarding her, Yoo Jonghyuk spoke while taking large strides towards us. “You two seem to be getting along nicely. Do you feel a sense if camaraderie from the fact that you both know the future?”

“...but you also know the future.”

He sounds so jealous rn.

[(How frustrating. Why aren’t they communicating with eachother? As I thought, these two lack enough desire to become one)]

Nirvana speaking nothing but facts-

[(Two, they are currently talking to eachother)] —

[(Even though no one in the world would call that a conversation)]

(;

“By the way, what’s the matter with his chest?”

“He’s paying for making me eat dirt.”

Spiteful brat

Yoo Jonghyuk continued with his questioning.

“Did you want me to fall into dispair?—”

So finding out the Dokja ‘betrayed’ him would cause him despair? I see

My comrades had forgotten about me. I was sure it’d be the same for that dude. —

[The story ‘Companions of Life and Death’ has begun its story telling]

It was then- the first prince suddenly glared at me. And then, a message popped up in my head.

~You fool. You must me Kim Dokja.

Did Jonghyuk just get dude zoned?

~They have all been swallowed up by the Great Story, haven’t they?

~Probably

~Why? You alright?

~You think a measly couple of years is enough to break me down?

Sweet

I finished preparing myself and opened my mouth. “Older Brother” (Hyung)

Yoo Jonghyuk’s expression crumpled into something unsightly.

Sweet Home Alabama~

“She’s originally your bride, isn’t she?” -

“Oh I see.” So it’s that sort of development? I felt a bit relieved.

Han Sooyoung and Yoo Jonghyuk? As a couple? Kim Dokja’s Company hadn’t allowed any dating in the workspace, so hell no.

I smell jealousy~

I downloaded Reddit for ORV. I’m not disappointed.

Someone wrote this whole thing and I respect them for it-
