okay yes i have watched Giant and had a lot of feelings already and am going to watch it a lot more and have a lot more feelings hoo boy this feels queer.
then autoplay showed me Freeze immediately afterwards and I thought it was a coda to Giant and I thought OMG ARE THEY CONNECTING THIS TO FREEZE WHICH IS THE CURRENT TITLE-HOLDER FOR QUEEREST #SKZ SONG?!!
And then realised it was just autoplay whoops.
But anyway. Yes. I'm in my feelings. Especially about Innie. But also about all of them.

Bonus clip while I compose myself and get ready to watch Giant again. (& omg there's a whole new album to listen to, I thought it would be out later today, was not expecting to wake up and discover it had already dropped)
✂️ Favourite bit of gay in Freeze, thanks to #Seungmin and his significant look at #BangChan.

Starting strong out of the gate with Seungmin's choking kink yes thank you god.
They're all so tiny and will fit so nicely into my pockets, it is perfect, yes yes.
Innie's egg cracking!!!!!
(What is going to come out? Will we find out?)
Cracks-of-red-light-innie omg okay I'm okay. no wait i'm not okay aaaaa
(more flailing in alt text)
Chicken :cqlgusu:
they all have an egg that's cracking yes good
oooh a reprise of the 7-person choreographed minhandling but with Innie as the trophy being raised?? I need to see the full choreo please I need it to live. Is it all 7 of them or only a subset?
(The lyrics mention being scarless, and the original 7-person choregraphed minhandling was from Scars (another Japanese release), so I wonder if this is a callback??)
Oh no it's *cutie jisungie* sneezing
Chicken :cqlgusu:
Chrome Hearts cross accessory alert yiss its the dice-and-crossball bracelet on Channie. (I think he's wearing the flower cross curb chain bracelet on the other wrist but it's hard to get a good look at it.) #skzSignificantJewellery
Does Seungmin have to do everything by himself around here? Won't someone come and choke this poor boy properly?
Good shot of Changbin's curb chain bracelet but I can't see the clasp well enough to determine if it's Chrome Hearts, drat.
Still trying to determine which skz member (if it was any of them) was about to choke Seungmin in the opening. I *think* it might have been Changbin. We don't see enough of the choker's hands to see any bracelets. They're wearing a fingerless glove on their right hand and no glove on their left.
Look, this is important research. I need to know.
(please please please have them include it in the making-of film please please)
Chicken :cqlgusu:
This is important lore ahaha no I'm just insane.
ANYWAY.
Egg gem colours
- Black: Bang Chan
- Light blue: Hyunjin
- Amber: Felix
- Dark teal: I.N
- Red: Changbin
- Light green: Han
- Brown: Seungmin
- Jade green: Lee Know
Okay so I *think* this is what's happening.
Innie found the giant egg that he held aloft with his gorgeous buff body thank you video creators I am very happy about that.
The giant egg gave Innie the glowing red cracks, and made it so that he could pass some kind of energy or knowledge on to the others.
They took this energy and shot off to find their own eggs.
They transform into the snazzy black outfits, I think this might be an internal world?? because they're switching between those and the miner outfits.
When they brought all the eggs together, the eggs activated and formed a big weird steampunk egg that Channie then put on the pedestal.
The weird steampunk egg matures and gives them the power to fly through space looking for something else.
And also transforms them into the white-outfit skz. Do they have additional powers? They look pretty. That is an important power of course.
The giant figure above them is not identifiably any one of them. Maybe that's the point. That the 8 little miner ants combine to make a giant powerful lightning person.

Uhhh I probably ought to share the video link for anyone who hasn't yet watched it ...

Chicken :cqlgusu:
Back in #skz's rookie year, when #I_N was first getting a bit obsessed with accessories, there was a particular oval glass pendant necklace that he bought in a bunch of differnent colours. The other members used to borrow (or steal) them quite often.
At some point I'd like to figure out how many of them there actually were, and see if the colours match up at all with the egg colours from Giant.
Seems unlikely, but not impossible
