At the end of the world, all of humanity is swept into an escape game called the Human Restart Project.
When the emotionless novelist Shen Qin is pulled in, the System mistakenly puts him in a dress, and passersby tease him.
Luckily, a kind passerby steps in to defend him.
The kind passerby says he likes Shen Qin and wants to be his “knight in shining armor.”
Shen Qin is deeply touched and tries to explain who he is, but keeps getting interrupted.
Finally, when they manage to get a moment alone, Shen Qin is about to come clean when he sees blood on the kind passerby's face. The man snarls, “I hate being lied to.”
Shen Qin: “...”
The kind passerby turns around, his expression gentle again. “What were you going to say?”
Shen Qin puts on a higher voice. “I was going to say, you were amazing just now, big brother~”
After that, Shen Qin carefully keeps his identity hidden and starts looking for a way out.
When he gains the ability to turn people into cards and use them for himself, the first person he chooses is that passerby.
As long as the card still exists, the man can't hurt him.
Of course, when the kind passerby learns the truth, he also reveals the wolf claws he's been hiding behind his back.

After the escape game opens its forum, a player with the codename “Love Liar” becomes a sensation.
The player is male, likes wearing women's clothes, and is always carrying a bunch of strange charms.
If you see a beautiful woman in the game, and the number of players is far higher than normal,
be careful. The woman may be a cross-dressing man.
“Watch out, or the card he's most jealous of will take you out.”
[Part 2]
If Shen Qin had to name the most dangerous person in the escape game, he would choose Wei Huaiyang.
In the first instance, Shen Qin disguises himself as an innocent young woman and tricks Wei Huaiyang into becoming his skill card. Having been forced to become his master, the two become enemies.
In the second instance, Shen Qin encounters an NPC who looks just like Wei Huaiyang.
Later, even the black-mud item turns into a black mole by his ear and starts speaking in Wei Huaiyang's voice.
“Like you.”
“Like you.”
“I like Shen Qin so much.”
Tch, who knows whether this guy is even human.
So, in order to lock down this most unstable factor, Shen Qin puts a ring on him.
In other people's eyes, it's a “collar” restraining Wei Huaiyang.
But Wei Huaiyang himself
is more than happy to wear it.
P.S.:
1. A sweet-on-himself, black-hearted girl-top x an adorable, emotionless cross-dressing guy-bottom. The bottom has an absurdly powerful golden finger and is a bit of a heartthrob.
2. There may be content warnings. I can't think of any right now, so I'll save a spot for them (dramatically prostrates).
3. I'll reserve a spot to apologize here, too. I'll update it if any content warnings come up (apologies in advance).
My other story, Love-Brained, launches with great enthusiasm on November 29. I'll be drafting both at the same time, but will wait until I've finished the full draft before posting this one, for the sake of my sanity. orz
