They Hunger for You

World One: The Streamer

Ever since you played that famous horror game on stream that day,

you keep running into that man.

Sometimes he's in the stairwell, sometimes at your office, and sometimes across the street... After so many chance encounters, you start to think the two of you must be fated to meet.

You grow closer. He brings you flowers and listens to you talk.

But even amid what seems like a perfect relationship, you notice something unsettlingly out of place.

The nights grow longer.

Your friends seem more and more like strangers, and you feel a strange unease you can't put into words.

And him: wherever you go, he seems to be following you. In alleys, by the river, in the park, he's always right behind you.

Watching his tall shadow stretch beneath the streetlights, thin and almost distorted, you finally realize something is wrong.

World Two: The Doll

You've had something bothering you lately.

You suspect someone has been breaking into your home.

Every time you come home, your expensive doll is never where you left it.

Sometimes it's fallen under the table, sometimes it's been tossed by the window, sometimes it's lying by the door...

After picking it up too many times, you finally snap. You decide to buy a security camera and install it at home, so you can find out which little thief sneaks in while you're at work.

A few days later, the camera app notifies you that it has recorded something.

You happen to be home on your day off, so you sit down at your computer with your doll in your arms to watch the footage.

The footage shows you sleeping.

You're about to fast-forward to see what else is on it when a face suddenly appears beside your bed. And that face... is the doll you're holding.

World Three: The Game

The character from the horror romance game has really come after you.

World Four: The Real and Fake Boyfriends

You're about to get married when you suddenly discover you have two boyfriends.

1. All the male leads are nonhuman. They absolutely adore the protagonist, they just desperately want to cuddle up to them!

2. Almost all the male leads fall in love with the protagonist at first sight. But because they're not human, their thinking is off.

3. The male leads will stop at nothing to get the protagonist.

4. Mild horror.

5. They're all good-looking, as far as the setting goes. They may not know how to have a normal romance, but they will never hurt the protagonist.

6. If you'd like to try this kind of story but are easily scared, don't worry, once the protagonist gets together with them, they can slowly teach them to behave more normally. They adore the protagonist and do whatever they're told.

7. I haven't started a new book in a long time, so this is practice, getting my touch back, rebuilding, and practicing with the second person.

Theme: Be sincere. Don't scare your partner
