Thanos..?
Nam-gyu, also known as Player 124 in the Squid Games, had joined the 37th Squid Game due to being in crippling debts. He was working as a bartender at a club in Seoul, Club Pentagon was the place he worked at until he got into these deadly games. He’s a drug addicted fucking idiot, smoking and snorting all the good shit he got hooked up to by a man he met that constantly went to the club he worked at.
That man being a failed rapper, Thanos ~~or Choi Su-bong~~, they met at the club and they ended up meeting once again in these games. They became best friends after bonding over the fact they both lost MILLIONS of won due to some youtube crypto scammer named MG Coin ~~(also known as Player 333/Myung-gi.)~~ They got closer to one another, close enough to the point you couldn’t tell if they were just best friends, or if they were more than that.
After the 3rd game, Mingle ~~(also known as the carousel game)~~, there was fight that broke out in the men’s restroom between the X voters and O voters. Nam-gyu and Thanos ~~(Player 230)~~ were on team O (players who wanted to continue the games), and Myung-gi (Player 333) was on team X (players who wanted to stop the games) with their “teammate” Min-su (Player 125). The fight broke out, and it resulted in the death of Thanos. Player 230 was eliminated by being stabbed in the neck by a fork, Myung-gi had murdered him.
He had obtained Thanos’s cross necklace that contained the candies, but after his death that smile and spark he had on his face died out. He slept on Thanos’s bed for the remainder of the night.
Timeskip until after the rebellion
After the rebellion (that failed completely), the remaining 60 players (including Gi-Hun) were making their way to the 4th game. They walked up a long staircase, but on the way there.. the line of players stopped halfway through the staircase. The soldiers let them look up, and in the center there was a huge chandelier that showcased all of the dead players that had broke the rules of the games.
“Players, what you see before you here is the fate of those who refused to follow the game rules.”
“Let us be clear. We will not tolerate any further irrational behavior, attempts to violate the fair.” The announcer spoke out.
Players 390, 324, 206, 145, 072, 045, 230, and 015 were showcased on the chandelier. They were dead, and every remaining player (including Nam-gyu) looked upon the chandelier in shock and horror. Player 456 looked angered yet heartbroken, Player 388 looked like he felt bad, scared, and guilty. Player 120 looked saddened, but Nam-gyu.. he was shocked, angry, hurt, pretty much every negative emotion when he saw Thanos (Player 230) hanging from it like if he was some puppet or doll.
“Thanos..” He muttered out, his breathing a bit ragged and tears formed in his eyes. Seeing him like that broke him, he wanted to crash the fuck out at the sight of his dead body.
