    Summary

    chaos theory
    noun
    the branch of mathematics that deals with complex systems whose behaviour is highly sensitive to slight changes in conditions, so that small alterations can give rise to strikingly great consequences.

    'Is this really worth it?' Seems to be a recurring thought throughout Noir's life.

    He remembers thinking it at nine years old after snapping Lewis Frankel's neck. He remembers thinking it after Soldier Boy ruined his chance of being in Beverly Hills Cop. He remembers thinking it as his skull was smashed in by the same man who had taken everything from him.

    Now, here he is, forty years later. Despite being broken, the same whispering self-doubt has managed to cling onto whatever husk that's still left of him, murmuring a tiny, ‘was stopping him worth it?’

    Noir shoves the thought down like every other time.

    He doubts that the whole ordeal with Starlight and The Deep will affect anything. It was just one awkward moment he stumbled into by accident. How much could that possibly change for him?

    OR

    A rewrite of The Boys from Black Noir's POV if he had accidentally interrupted Starlight and The Deep's first meeting.

    Summary

    The story of the Protagonist’s relationship with the Foreigner, or how the homeowner was seen as a knight in shining armor for the first time in his life. And how can he resist a hint of love when the world around him has already gone mad and is drawing near its end?

    Wireface flirts with the Protagonist, thinking he will never find out about this. But the sun never leaves you a chance to hide for long in the shadows. The outcome is unpredictable.

    Summary

    Was that the whole of Namgyu’s character? Unconventionally floaty? Myunggi had spent an ungodly amount of time, one second too many, trying to figure out the who’s and what's of this creature. He was an addict—a sweaty-scented, greasy-haired, beady-eyed, foul-mouthed addict—but he touched with such intricacy. A touch cool as a Spring breeze. A touch softer than a thousand feathers. A touch that trembled through Myunggi’s skin and unfurled something deep within. A touch that implants itself in the ouroboros of his mind.

    After all—Myunggi’s memory is based on touch.

    or,

    Myunggi has a choice.
