Rewatching Psychopath Diary and Strangers from Hell really makes me wonder if someone was working on both sets at the same time because the amount of things in common...
A. GENERAL STUFF
1- both came out in 2019
2- contain a song by The Rose (or its lead singer, Kim Woo-sung)
3- similar themes (murderers) (although that's about 99% of k-dramas)
B. YOON JONGWOO AND YOOK DONGSIK
1- both writers
2- work an office job
3- annoying coworker/sort of friend called Jae-ho
4- their superior hate them
5- fantasize about murder (like, a lot)
6- (threaten to) beat up one of their colleagues with weird objects
7- one parent that works in the food industry, the other that is nowhere to be seen
8- speak to their evil reflection in the mirror
9- no one takes them seriously
10- keep being dragged into work dinners
11- interest in 'dark' media (crime/horror)
12- one of their neighbour decided to befriend them even after they acted very weirdly
C. SEO MOONJO AND SEO INWOO
1- look very polite and nice to most people
2- same family name!
3- odd relationship to their parental figure (they want to kill them)
4- like to collect things from their victims!
5- really really want to convince a random guy to commit murder
6- tactics to convince someone to commit murder includes saying vague stuff like 'we're so alike'
7- please refer to this post for more details
D- SO JUNGHWA AND SHIM BOKYUNG
1- cops. That one's pretty simple
2- dad was also a cop (and a famous one)
3- only cop to do any work whatsoever in the whole city
4- on more or less good terms with both the actual serial killer (moonjo/inwoo) and the wannabe serial killer (jongwoo/dongsik)
5- gets kidnapped by one of the killers at some point
6- work based on their instincts
Thank you to @softneomiro for pointing out some resemblances I hadn't seen before!
its so funny to me that atsushis pic was in the newspaper like hes kinda locally famous
i mean im sure with teh shit yokohama sees tehy move on from one event to the other real quick, but its funny to imagine atsushi as some type of local celeb like he gets recognized on the street and shit
becuz akutagawa's face is plastered on local police stations all the time
and sskk r besties; like i know wan and anthology arent canon but i feel like them running into each other all the time pretty much is like akutagawas always there
anywho
so its so funny to imagine ppl being like 'whale hero guy hanging out with a MAFIOSO??'
and atsushi is like 'uhh thats not akutagawa the rabid dog of the mafia thats akutagawa the not-rabid-dog-of-the-mafia'
citizen: ...
atsushi: also we're not hanging out; i hate him, he hates me; id die for him, he'd die for me; sometimes we accidentally meet up and go shopping or take a walk and stuff like that. but we're not friends. like i think he's the coolest person ever but he's also a little bitch.

My poor boy Aaron...
Maybe someone already have asked the question, but why in The Foxhole slasher, Andrew is the one who works in infirmary(instead of Aaron). I think it's for Andrew starts to trust Neil earlier. Because here we only have the summer for the plot + the epilogue. But maybe you have another point of view?
Honestly, at first it was indeed intended mostly as a plot device!
As you said, it was easier for Andrew and Neil to bound if Andrew is the one who saved Neil's life, since it made a good excuse for them to interract often (+ Andrew would know for sure Neil is hiding something, because he saw his body covered with scars, it worked perfectly for that context,). Also, I liked the idea that Andrew has to look after people he cares about. It's such a big part of his character in the original books to me (well not in the "medical" sense, but you know what I mean, he is such a devoted person when he has to look after someone).
A lot of my original ideas changed and developed since my first Tumblr post about the slasher fic, and now there is actually an angsty reason behind it, but I can't say it. ; ) The only thing I can tell you is that it is related to the twins' past in that version of the story (it will be different compared to canon).
And yeah, Aaron indeed dreamed to become a med student, it's just that something happened that shatered his dreams. 👀
The latest bet the Foxes have made is on how long it will take for Kevin to break Neil's phone to keep him offline. The bet that immediately follows is about exactly how fast Kevin can run.

Atsushi be like : if he's a serial killer then what's the worst, that could happen to a boy*, who's already hurt?
He's a little bit lana coded
I love that bkdk is actually everything, like it’s sunshine x grumpy, then it’s rule breaker x rule follower BUT REVERSED, it’s sun and moon but not who you think, it’s apology in the rain, dramatic rescue missions, hospital scenes, targeted by villains for being too close, knowing the other better than anyone else, rivals that forever chase each other—
I love all of your art so so much. It’s absolutely gorgeous and every time I see it I scream a little <3333 For the requests can I ask for Raven Neil and Fox Neil meet each other?
eeee thank you for your kind words !!! <333 a few people requested more nathaniel + raven and fox neil together so here u go >:D
oh he’s really NOT okay
If their association status ever changed to something more amiable, Dongsik continuing to call Inwoo Inwoo-yah is more realistic than him starting to call him Inwoo hyung—because, in their case, their dynamic is more important than their age.
The romanticisation of cannibalism in fictional media might sound disturbing at first but then you've got Vampires, which have been romanticised for a long time. Vampires are just cannibals on a liquid diet.
