In Xinjing, if you can't find your "object", you will be rejected by the world until you disappear. But the so-called object may not be a lover, it can also be a relative, a friend, an ideal, or even a deceased cat.
Human beings must rely on the "romance" that is enough to support life to resist the rejection of alien rules; unfinished love, regret and obsession will sink into reality and form malicious rifts that corrode memory.
Twenty-four-year-old archivist Ember has no romance stamp. In order to find the missing director of the orphanage and find out his blank life experience, he joined the non-governmental mutual aid organization "Snowflake" and entered into stories that were trapped before the ending: the cat that still treats the injured after his death; the young man who never confessed but was inseparable, and in the end only the habit of remembering each other was left; the boy who has been waiting in the dusk for forty years...
In the first mission, the extraterrestrial monster Yusi formed a symbiosis with Ember, and understood "protecting Ember" as becoming his boyfriend.
One doesn't believe that he will be left behind, and the other doesn't understand love but insists on keeping him. The two started from using and guarding each other, and in the process of jointly repairing the regrets of others, they gradually became irreplaceable exceptions for each other.
In order to eliminate the possibility of instability, the story is written as a tragedy dedicated to the audience's expectations; Ember must make a choice that is least like himself. Wrestling a more dramatic, more personal, and more satisfying answer from the only ending.
Intent: Everyone is an island, but love and choice can make each other visible to the world; people do not have to obey the established destiny, but also have the right to redefine themselves and perfection.
