    Reader note

    I'd like to recommend a less common "male-oriented" short story, specifically an adaptation of a tabletop role-playing game (a tabletop role-playing game with a script written by the protagonist and a moderator to control the plot, preventing any sense of frustration for the male lead; plus, the moderator says that reality is already tiring, dark, and cruel enough, so everyone's playing a normal tabletop game, and of course, having fun is the most important thing, leading to a happy ending). Note: Some parts are diary entries.
