Mu Yu fell in love at first sight with Yin Yan, the top student from the department next door who always sat in the front row of their general elective class.
Whenever he saw him, Mu Yu got dizzy, and his brain filled with images of him, packed together like frog eggs. His heartbeat seemed ready to shatter his eardrums, and then those visions would turn to liquid and squeeze out of his ears.
Mu Yu was sure he'd never liked anyone this much before.
But the top student next door seemed straight...
Mu Yu was a little worried, but tried pursuing him anyway... Huh? It worked?

After getting together with the top student, strange things kept happening around Mu Yu. Classmates drooled over portraits of him, strangers would scream hysterically that Mu Yu had defiled Yin Yan, and old elementary school classmates he hadn't seen in ages kept asking about his boyfriend, subtly and not so subtly...
It got so ridiculous that someone claimed to be from the National Anomaly Investigation Bureau and told him to stay away from Yin Yan!
Mu Yu was absolutely furious. Just how many romantic entanglements did his boyfriend have out there? Damn it!
So, in a fit of anger, Mu Yu decided not to talk to Yin Yan for two whole hours... Okay, that's a little too long... Half an hour? Ten minutes?

It wasn't until Yin Yan finally confessed who he really was that Mu Yu finally understood.
"So that was Sanity loss, not 'I love you'?"
Yin Yan: ?
No... You love me.
Mu Yu (smiling)
Just kidding. I actually knew. ^^
A love-struck, self-propelled anomaly-attraction device x an equally love-struck, possessive and obsessive evil god
Reading guide:
1. They really are hopeless romantics, especially hopeless.
2. Not suitable for anyone with extreme preferences about either lead.
3. Mu Yu can see anomalies, so he thinks he's mentally ill.
4. This isn't proper Lovecraftian horror.
5. The character art was drawn by my friend, @Little Lamb Sandwich. Isn't it great? Come praise Little Lamb!
6. Short story, around 200,000 characters.
Theme: Love as equals.
