Name: Does Verlaine Have to Suffer for Love Too?
Author: Hates Cabbage

Synopsis

[The novel starts on October 5, with updates at 6 p.m. I hope you'll enjoy it QWQ]

After losing every anchor and wandering Europe for eight years, Verlaine suddenly received some news:

Rimbaud, who had "died" eight years ago, had returned to France safe and sound, bringing back a "younger brother" who shared neither parent with him.

They said this "younger brother" had cobalt-blue eyes and could control gravity, just like the partner who had betrayed him eight years ago.

Verlaine, the partner in question: ...A younger brother?

Verlaine, the partner in question: A younger brother!

Even after meeting Rimbaud again, becoming his enemy, and then becoming Rimbaud's lover,

Verlaine had always believed this:

There was no future more terrifying than death, and he was perfectly willing to die at Rimbaud's hands.

But when the countdown ended, Verlaine realized just how little he knew.

It might sound unbelievable, but he had always thought that if his younger brother died, he would die too. That was why he could do as he pleased, without a care in the world. So here's the question: can Rimbaud give back the leverage he has over him?

Rimbaud: ^_^

Content warnings:

1. If you dislike love mixed with hate and heart-wrenching romance, you may want to steer clear.

2. OOC warning. This is the author's personal kink made into a story (in big, bold letters). Rimbaud will be overly forceful and controlling, with a possessive streak, and there will be various kinds of play. (Nothing non-consensual. The guy is half-willing; it's all just the couple's way of having fun.)

3. No distinction between the two in the pairing.

4. Apart from the main couple, there are no side pairings involving original characters.

5. The original title was "My Friend Wants to Make Love and Hate with Me?!", but I didn't realize the last two words were blocked terms, so I changed it! (Pulls hair.)

6. More to be added if I think of anything.

Theme: Stay optimistic and healthy.

🍉Shocking revelations, but still shrouded in mystery. What role did Flaubert play in the spectacular disappearance case of the French Transcendents that year? The legendary French intelligence agent who was famous for his talent was living in a foreign country and wasted his life. Someone concealed it and refused to report it. It is horrifying to think about it. Is it possible that the man-made superpower Verlaine suddenly rebelled, resigned and was assassinated? There is also a hidden secret? Does it have any contact with the trader? The truth behind it is chilling. It makes people ponder whether the psychic who has returned home in despair is privately confronting the mastermind behind the scenes? To know what happened next, please tune in to the next episode of Entering France. [Sunglasses]

[Covering face and laughing and crying] If the two protagonists participate in the show, please ask a quick question: Why is your rating inappropriate for children? One said shyly, the other one was confused: So we are not G-rated?

It felt like Xiao Wei was emphasizing that my struggle was meaningful. Wei can't accept his unbearable self, but Lan accepts him completely, so why has he been consumed by ghosts for so long? Ming Minglan was the one who was closest to him and was stabbed in the back by him, so why did she have to redeem him? And Lan understands Wei: Love is a hand that wants to touch but then withdraws

Yes, yes, Xiao Wei is not a casual prodigal, he has carefully considered it and is very reserved [Caigou]

Wow, this paragraph, especially the last sentence, wow, the indescribable feeling, combined together, becomes Rimbaud.

I don't know for a moment, Baudelaire, whether you are proud of the excellence of your students and therefore underestimate the island country, or whether you are better at seeing through the relationship between the two lovebirds and lamenting the spilled water than the two lovebirds themselves.
