Peach Blossom Spring Booklet 2: Monsters Among Us

"I'm Done Being Human"

He dreams that he's turned into a snake, carried by a giant serpent toward some unknown destination.

His friend's husband says the serpent has bad intentions and wants to hurt him.

So what if it does? He's lived long enough anyway.

"The Chicken Eats the Fox"

I'm a chicken spirit, a monster that eats anything.

My diet is all-inclusive. I can even eat myself.

But why would I eat myself?

There's no need for that.

One day, I meet a fox who wants to eat me.

Before I eat him, I decide to give him a little taste of sweetness.

"Meeting the Parents"

Love that isn't accepted by one's family can't bring happiness.

He firmly believes this.

He knows humans are hypocritical and unreliable. For all he knows, the guy he's found might be a gay man who married a woman under false pretenses.

To stop that man from going down the road of a sham marriage, he urges him to come out to his parents.

He wants to meet his parents and make sure the man is his for good.

"A Love Experience Pass"

To meet love at an age when you don't understand it.

How can he get the other person to accept him?

He's got it.

There are fragments of souls that have no consciousness, only emotions.

If he gives the other person a soul fragment, it'll make him love me, right?

But that wouldn't be real.

Borrowed love doesn't count. I might as well do without it.

"Dreams Come True"

A rabbit claims it will give them a gift called the Dream-Come-True Illusion.

If they fulfill their dreams inside the illusion and say, "This is my wish," they can escape.

Otherwise, they'll be trapped in the illusion forever.

This rabbit really is the perfect wingman.

Because his wish is to be together with the good friend beside him...

"My Cat"

A black cat wanders into the company's dormitory. It's sweet, obedient, and full of spirit.

He feeds it, and it keeps him company.

One day, the cat disappears, and a new colleague joins the company.

This colleague has countless connections to the missing cat.

Is this colleague really that cat?

"The Junior Is a Dog"

Baili hears that there's a freshman junior with a split personality.

Rumor has it that this junior is as good-natured as a gentle, tame dog, but one day he suddenly develops a second personality.

The second personality is difficult to get along with and seems to have it in for Baili, as if he really hates him.

The junior's two personalities are so different that they're like a dog and a human.

Their attitudes toward Baili are just as different, like a lover and an enemy.

In fact, the junior doesn't have a split personality. There's actually a dog inside his body.

So which personality is the dog?

The primary personality, whose doglike nature means he likes Baili?

Or the second personality, who acts like a person and hates Baili?

If one has to go, Baili would of course want the primary personality to stay...

In fact, the second personality doesn't hate Baili. He just can't accept some guy using their shared body to get close to him.

Because he knows perfectly well that if he lets it happen, their body will end up together with Baili.

Theme: Love means staying together for life
