(also theyre eachothers caregivers in my mind mehehehehe)

!! TW for mention of alc0h0l ab4se !!

🖤 In-ho is a very dark person by nature, obviously. But ever since he got drawn to his little and agreed to start taking care of them, you'd managed to slowly get his soft side out. His 'soft' side would be similar to the way he behaved as player 001. Even though it was just a mask back then, he's starting to feel like that personality is the way he actually feels now. His biggest adoration is that he can feel like an entirely different person around you.

🖤 Would love that his little can see beyond his tough exterior and views him as a source of comfort rather than the horrible villain he deep down knows he's become.

🖤 In-ho is a flip between caregiver and regressor. He'd probably wouldn't lean more to neither, just 50/50 between little and caretaker. Whenever he regresses he isolates himself from his little as much as he possibly can. He absolutely would never want you, or anyone really, to see him in that fragile state.

🖤 He's a very monitoring parent, it's a force of habit unfortunately. There's something in him that just feels so uneasy when he can't keep an eye on you 24/7. Would probably have baby monitors installed all around the house for whenever he needs to leave you on your own. It helps keep his mind calm.

🖤 Because of that habit he's also grown very protective over you. Like.. crazy protective. For example, whenever you're out in public together he insists you hold into his hand at all times. He just needs you close to him.

🖤 He's a very stereotypical girl dad. He absolutely adores dressing his little up in the cutest dresses. Or spend too much time and put far too much effort into your imaginary tea parties. 🎀

🖤 Having an incredibly wealthy caretaker does come with it's advantages. In-ho has a slight problem when it comes to spoiling you... lots of his money goes into dressing you up nicely. You'd also have an overflow of toys, although he is more withheld on getting you those.

🖤 I'd imagine him being an absolute sucker for hearing you babbling or just ranting nonsense. It's one of the only things that manage to break through his tough demeanor. He loves responding to your rambles with such a serious demeanour. 'What was that you're saying?' 'Mhmm.. totally.' 'Now watch your language you.' Would think his remarks towards you are the funniest thing in the world. He'd just sit there giggling to himself meanwhile you can't understand a word he's saying back.

🖤 With all the stress that his job brings with it In-ho definitely has some troubles with excessive alcohol intake. However when you're around he manages to stop drinking completely for your sake. You manage to keep his mind peaceful without needing that stuff.

🖤 Veryyyy busy caretaker... he's a serious workaholic. Although he does always try to make time for you. Even if it means clumsily keeping you in his lap while he attempts to work. Those moments usually end in hour-long cuddle sessions rather than In-ho actually managing to focus on his work. He can't help it alright!

🖤 In-ho probably isn’t one for using nicknames much. He primarily just adresses you by your first name. ... Full name when he's angry. ( ﾟ□ﾟ)

🖤 I promise he won't leave you at his brothers for him to take care of you /silly :P

Huzzah!!!! More for me to feast on !11!!!1! Hihihi I need more people to talk about the fact that he kept 222 for atleast six months. And then when he gave her to Jun-ho she was just so CHUBBYYYY??? Yep, amazing dad right there, he definitely did all that and not just one of his guards or something don't argue with me on this. Making sure 'his' baby is well FED that's what we like to SEE !!!

Hihihi I'm FINALLY on summer break!!!!! NO MORE SCHOOL 🔥🔥🔥🔥 (for six weeks atleast..)

!! Ok so, for the sake of these headcanons, we'll just pretend he survived season 3 alright?? 😿 Pretend he actually started the round before 333 died so he and 222 got out safe together !!! yay !!

💚 Gi-hun had made it back safe from the game's for the second time now. Though he'd completely lost his sense of self in the process. He went back with the intention to stop the organisation once and for all and finally safe everyone. But he failed to do so. Which left him with even more mental scars than the first time. This time around, he couldn't help but like it was his fault everything ended badly. However when he found his little to take care after that slowly began changing. Taking care of you helped restore the faith in himself that he actually could help people for the better.

💚 Even though Gi-huns your caretaker, you help him back in more ways than you can imagine. Taking care of you helps enermously with the guilt he feels for how the last game ended. Seeing you safe and protected at the end of the day because of him slowly but steadily helpes restore his sanity.

💚 After all the events with his friends and 222 occured, it left him with an intense protective nature over the one's he cares about. Since he couldn't protect most of them , he now protects his little with his literal life. Gi-hun willing to do anything it takes aslong as it ensures your safety.

💚 Because of this intense protective nature, Gi-hun has developed severe anxiety conserning your safety. He'll have trouble leaving you on your own even if it's just for a few minutes. Which ultimately means he often goes out of his way just to stay by your side.

💚 Especially when you're going to sleep Gi-hun has the feeling he needs to be right next to you. It all makes him think back to the fights that used to break out at night while he was in the game. He wouldn't want something like that to happen to you.

💚 When Gi-hun has his sleepless nights, which unfortunately happend more often than not. He'll spent the entire night looking over you, just like he did for his friends during lights out.

💚 Gi-hun is a very quiet person in general. He didn't use to be at first, but after everything that happend he just prefered keeping quiet. Because of that he would prefer taking care of baby regressors rather than bigger kids. Considering little one's dont require as much 'talking to' as the others.

💚 There's a reason Gi-hun prefers being refered to by nicknames by his little. It's always given him more of the sense that you're really his kid. Such simple name's make him feel like he's ontop of the world. Usually any variation of 'dad' or 'papa' will do the trick.

💚 Suprise! It doesn't stop at nicknames for him, don't worry. He most definitely has a ton of nicknames for his little aswell. They'll all be very personal, based on everything Gi-hun loves about you. However there are some more 'general' nicknames he likes aswell though, such as 'angel' and 'sweetheart'. Every nickname will contain 'my' infront of it though, you're his baby after all.

💚 Something Gi-hun never admit out loud is that you're honestly his entire world. His little will always feel like a lifeline to him.

💚 One of his favourite passing activities is quietly cradling you in his arms while you both enjoy the silence. He'll let you sit on his lap as he tightly presses you against the warmth and comfort of his body. Exactly like he does with 222 in the gif below. You two just spent hours and hours endlessly cuddling eachother while both your sorrows drown away in eachother's arms.

THIS MANNNNN. wooow these may be brutally self indulgent but, gosh !!! he just makes me feel SO small !!! onto the fictional dad pile he GOES. could and WOULD literally go on for hours about him. like I have a million more headcanons that I could've put here but I didn't wanna make it toooo00 long :3. (even though I probably still did) anyway try and guess my favourite character challenge !!!! level: IMPOSSIBLE !! 🚨🚨

Please keep in mind these are written at 1AM.. (ToT) I hope everyone still likes them though !!

WILL most definitely never recover from watching season 3!

anyway.. papa Gi-Hun canon.... yaaaay.... 😿😿😿
