Thanos was alive.
The thing that happened in the bathroom? Well, it got him a scratch or two from the fork, but he hadn't been completely perfored through the lower chin and the side of his neck. And he had survived well for now.. He had experience on having a time where he didn't have drugs to ingest to when he finally finished all his drugs.. But that was different for Nam-Gyu.
.
The withdrawal had been hammering his best friend from what it looked on the outside; Limping, shortened conversations, hyperventilating from time to time.. The whole 9 yards. And Thanos of course noticed those changes: He was no stranger to the withdrawal of the lack of drugs.
.
Thanos had survived the hide n' seek game just fine, killing people with Nam-Gyu until they decided to just do it for fun but not necessity.. But after the fourth game, Thanos had noticed Nam-Gyu having a downfall on his current state and mood, which definitely had something to do with the drugs.
.
' Come on, Nam-su. We need to cross to the other side, my brother! '
Thanos voice was all cheerfully and still with that hint of excitement that the drugs brought him, but there was also a gleam of serious worry when he saw Nam-Gyu sitting on the ground of the platform. The bridge was forward, with a path of train rails that led to the next platform, where many other players were already on. The only person's staying on the platform of the beginning were: Thanos, Nam-Gyu and the player 222, Jun-hee.
Thanos was going to help Jun-hee afterwards, but he had a priority; The poor man of his friend who was in withdrawal and clear desperation for pills. Yu hu. Thanos would need to bring him to the other side someway β and having in count that there was a metallic rope that made circles, because of the theme "Rope Game", it would be difficult to drag him through the ground in any case.. That left two or one options.
