《saturn & venus》concrete jungle

[26.6.2022]
i'm in love with how the city makes me feel. the pedestrian filled sidewalks. the traffic of smoke ruining my lungs. the street food that no amount of fine dining can top. the concrete jungle of dreams and possibilities.
the way the city makes me feel at 8am when the sun strikes through the windows that are overlooking ant-sized people. waiting 10 minutes in line for a cup of coffee. walking past strangers without ever knowing what goes through their minds. the unknown world of possibilities each day brings that fuels me with adrenaline.
the way the city makes me feel at 1am when it starts to subtly quiet down. loud city lights and bright clubbing beats. stolen glances and sarcastic remarks and kissing acquaintances. when it starts to drizzle while walking back with a random guy's jacket keeping me warm. looking up at the shining skyscrapers and feeling so small and yet the whole universe feels like it's within my grasp. nothing makes me feel more alive than the city that never sleeps.

The Simulacrum
"He who fights with harem tropes should see to it that he himself does not become a harem protagonist. And if you gaze for long into a narrative, the narrative gazes also into you." --- Friedrich Nietzsche (probably?) How would you react if one day you woke up inside an environment running on tropes and clichés? For allegedly average high-schooler Leonard Dunning, this question became quite relevant when one day he woke up in a pristine city on a strange island in the middle of the Atlantic, without any memories, surrounded by classmates who are barely more than characterless placeholders, and with a classic indecisive harem protagonist and his impossibly beautiful love interests for friends. That would be hard to deal with already, yet his investigation into the tropes governing the world, trying to avoid harem shenanigans, and his odd blend of outside-context knowledge, unique abilities, and a penchant for causing trouble wherever he goes ends up dragging him into the center of the action anyway. Disclaimer: This is a tongue-in-cheek, slice of life romantic comedy, with occasional sprinkles of combat and mystery to spice things up. Please do not expect a straight up deconstruction beyond some in-universe meta-commentary by the characters.
