Yu Sheng used to have a secret crush on the campus heartthrob.
Then he found a Rubik's Cube. Then he entered a maze. Then he met the heartthrob again. Then he discovered...
The heartthrob had turned into a total nutcase.
Yu Sheng: Huh?
(Infinite-flow. The character concepts in this blurb are provisional, and I'll leave the ideas here for now. Maybe I'll start writing it one day.)
The serious version:
I passed perilous cliffs, passed dense forests, passed thorns and the roses hidden deep among them.
I witnessed reason and emotion contend, witnessed tears, witnessed unwillingness to give in, witnessed fragments of childhood stick together to form the foundation of a life.
"If you insist on going, I'll go with you."
I thought it over. I decided I wanted that rose.
He is mine, thorns and all.
