BREAKING NEWS: khun “i won’t do anything that won’t directly and assuredly benefit myself to get up the tower” aguero agnis meets one (1) helpless twink and has rerouted his entire life plan to “fuck it we ball”
Edwan is trying to process that V's son is low key flirting with his, let him be
you get something very interesting when you tie together bam’s terrifying, god-like existence and his desire to be “human” or to “belong”
he faces this dilemma of being called/deemed a “human” for a long time but the more he begins to exist outside of the cave and meet more people and realize what’s “normal” the more he realizes he’s way too different from everyone else to really “belong” with them
it’s an isolating feeling but it gets even worse when his connection to his humanity grows even thinner due to FUG’s influence on him and attempts to make him their god. people around him start to fear him or revere him– they no longer see him as human but as a natural disaster
characters like these usually wholeheartedly accept the concept of being a monster and go on w/ their lives accepting they’ll never be human but bam’s different cuz his desire to “belong” and “be with his friends” stands above all else and this involves being a human and not god but it’s super hard to do this considering his reputation. his very being is considered abnormal and branded as irregular in the tower– he will NEVER be normal or “human” in the eyes of so many people in the tower and bam’s gotten so close to thinking the same
but khun does his best to keep bam grounded. he recognizes bam as both an incredibly powerful individual, and also doubtlessly human in how he thinks, desires and feels. he might be god-like in terms of strength but he has the emotional limits of a human. khun never lets that go and whereas other people easily disregard’s bam’s feelings for the sake of using him for a certain goal, khun always tries to be considerate of bam and treat him as an individual rather than a glorified war machine
anyways i think ideally bam should accept the fact he is definitely, in some ways, a monster, but he also definitely has a human side to him that he can’t ignore or else he’ll break entirely
Day 4: AU/Free Day
They deserve at least one day of rest after all that’s been happening
i’m not lateeEeEeEee! i do not know about the others, but personally i still have the 2nd day of the event. time zones are strange things. i’m so busy that i don’t have time and energy for something better than clumsy sketches :( insanely ashamed of the quality of the drawings i post, but i so wanted to participate in this :(
Concept: Bam is overwhelmed by his power during a battle, slowly loses his mind and Khun is the only one who can calm him down.
Today I have this strong khunbam feels after reading a great fic.
so imagine tower of god but each time khun and bam have to part their ways (like during hell train arc) khun gives bam a goodbye forehead kiss
you get soft times
Bam: *limply hugging a pillow on his bed*
Khun: *lays next to Bam, hugging him* One of those days?
Bam, cuddling into Khun’s shoulder: Mhm.
Khun: It’s okay, I’m here for you.
Bam, mumbling with a smile as he closes his eyes: Thank you.
Khun: Of course.
"Cozy boyfriends 💕"

khunbam kissy doodle that i haven't posted here yet😗
domestic random kb because for some reason I really like this stuff (spoilers for latest korean fp chapters)
while we were watching the episode where Bam asks Khun to help Shibisu my gf was imitating Khun saying “yeah sure anything for you my princess” and that like changed my Entire perception of KhunBam. like Everything. Bam is his princess. his baby girl. his beautiful princess with a disorder (amnesia)
i need to talk about this because this is very important to me:
yes, khun is down bad for bam and we KNOW that, but we need to start appreciating the fact that bam is down bad for him too and he’s just as embarrassing about it, like, this is not one sided, guys. the only difference is that bam always has a lot of shit going on, while khun always only deals with bam related problems.
but examples of bam being down bad:
• always singles khun out in a group, he’s the first person he sees and unless someone else interacts with him, he continues to only focus on khun, to the point that endorsi herself talks about this more than once, because she’s jealous that bam isn’t paying attention to her.
• while bam doesn’t like seeing any of his friends hurt, he usually doesn’t stop them from joining fights if they insist on it, he’ll just do his best to protect them. but here’s the thing: if he can help it, he doesn’t even let khun join a fight in a physical way and when khun looks like he’s going to leave his post in his lighthouse, bam explicitly tells him not to do that because it’s too dangerous, because to him khun belongs in the safety of his lighthouses, strategizing and protecting their friends.
• at the end of the day, the person bam is going to open to will always be khun. this is explicitly made aware when he bids both endorsi and yuri good night (two people who are his close friends and he’s known for years, and could’ve open up to at anytime) because they said they were going to rest, but when khun tried to do the same, he stopped him and asked if he could speak to him about the master key. very important!!! bam also wants to be the person khun opens up to, but every time he manages to ask him something personal, they get interrupted (looking at you, endorsi).
• bam actually stated it himself that khun ‘is his most precious friend’ when talking about why he was protecting ran, in terms of him being khun’s brother. enough said about it, khun is already on a whole other level to anybody else, and how insane it is that he’s willing to lay down his life for ran because he knows it would upset khun if anything happened to him?
• RACHEL HERSELF POINTED OUT THAT KHUN IS BAM’S PRIORITY!!! when she asked bam why he was giving her a fair chance in terms of getting the thorn fragment, literally her first assumption was because she had saved khun’s life.
• i also feel that is important to point out that while bam may not want khun in the direct line of danger, there is no one he trusts more than khun, because he knows that at the end of the day he can take care of himself, he just wishes he wasn’t put into a position where he had to. like in the sweetfish situation, he had a choice of where to go and he chose to go to hoaquin because he knew khun was with the sweetfish and he trusted khun to have a plan, even though he was worried.
• lastly, i need to mention this because i have never seen nobody talk about that: bam tries to hold on to the image of himself from the test floor in his interactions with khun a lot. after his time as jue viole grace, every time we see him interacting with other characters we see him serious and determined but rarely smiling, even with his old friends, but with khun i noticed a lot of instances that he does the closed eyed smile to reassure that everything was fine and while a part of me wants to believe that the only reason this happens is because khun just brings out this side of him, i also believe that is because (at least in a subconscious level) he believes that is the version of himself khun grew to care for (since we know bam segregates his personality, since his sworn enemy is the version of himself that is jue viole grace) and if he’s not that version anymore, will khun still care for him? (welp, this just got really angsty).
to end all of this: basically, i feel like we talk a lot about khun and his obsession with bam (affectionate) but we don’t talk enough about bam’s with him because his moments are always more subtle and usually get lost in everything else that’s happening on bam’s life.
and i noticed that we, in the khunbam fandom, tend to be able to read khun better (he truly is easier to read) than bam, but now this post makes me want to do a character study on bam.
Khun’s sixth sense were he detects when someone is trying to marry Bam off has activated
