《35.》Chapter 1

jungkook was sitting in the small park close to his apartment. His head up as he looked at the sky and sighed. He was immersed in his thoughts until he heard a voice singing.
he looked to his side and saw a young man singing and playing the guitar, around him were a few people listening. jungkook got up and walked towards the guy. his voice was angelic. but jungkook thought his face was more mesmerising than the voice.
once the song ended, people cheered for the guy who smiled back at them kindly before they walked away. jungkook stood there, until he realised he should do something. he took out 10$ from his wallet and put it in the man's guitar case, "you sounded amazing." he complimented.
the guy looked at the money then at jungkook, "thanks." he replied, "but i wasn't singing for money."
"no?" jungkook questioned, "oh- i'm sorry i assumed because you were singing and the case was open i-" jungkook was cut off by the man laughing sweetly. "it's okay, this isn't the first time this has happened, just take your money out so i can put my guitar back."
"yes- yes sorry." jungkook said before picking up his money so the man can put his guitar back in. "you sounded amazing." he said again.
"i think we already covered that, but thanks." the guy giggled and jungkook felt embarrassed.
"yeah." jungkook chuckled awkwardly. "i'm jungkook by the way." he reached his hand out to the guy in front of him who took his hand to shake, "nice to meet you, i'm taehyung." he smiled and jungkook swore that this was the prettiest smile he's ever seen till now.
"is it okay if i sit here?" jungkook pointed at the spot on the bench next to taehyung who nodded and moved aside a little.

"i've never seen you here before." jungkook said, "i mean playing the guitar and singing."
taehyung chuckled, "yeah, this is the first time i come to this park. i only recently moved here."
"ohh! i hope you get used to it here, it's nice and all." jungkook replied smiling.
"how about you? you live near here somewhere?" the other tried to keep the conversation going, he didn't know anyone here and was secretly hoping that jungkook could be his friend.
"yeah, just a block away." the latter replied. "me too! maybe we're neighbors." jungkook smiled at the other's enthusiasm, "maybe."
they then sat in awkward silence until jungkook cleared his throat, "well it was really nice to meet you, but i have to get going now." he said, already standing up.
"it was nice to meet you too! maybe i'll see you around again." taehyung smiled and hoped the guy didn't find him creepy.
"sure." jungkook smiled before turning around and walking away. one thought was on his mind that this guy he just met was the most beautiful human being to walk on this planet. he smiled to himself as he continued walking.

BODY&SHADOW
AN ILLUSTRATED NOVEL • UPDATES TUESDAY AND FRIDAY In a time before living memory, the King Dragon of the Void watched the world and realized there was a crack. He realized that humanity was destroying the rock upon which they lived; they leaked life’s code into the churning chaos. At first the change was imperceptible: nanites overtook microorganisms, bacteria, viruses, amoebas. Insects became increasingly inorganic; birds and lizards followed soon after. Even humans were infected by their own advances, cell by cell, till there was not a person left on earth who wasn’t at least part synthetic, the product of a prior generation’s carelessness. The world’s population was ravaged by mechanical viruses with no vaccines; they were mercilessly overtaken by bacteria that knew no death. Soon, most of the planet was empty and only a handful remained who remembered the hedonist realm they came from; only a few were left who remembered what the world looked like when their buildings touched the sky. The King Dragon of the Void watched the rock turn. He watched humans cower as the Old World fell down around them; watched their great monuments crumble into dusty ruins; watched their codes become precious, ancient gem memories forged under the crushing pressure of so many fallen stones. The world has spun many times around the sun since chaos swallowed man whole. It is a simpler time than the one that died out, but the people now are not immune to the folly of the people before. There is old code everywhere: in the water, in the air, in the trees. The heart of man has been replaced by power cores, many of which are hard-coded with preternatural abilities—when they die, an esoteric mountain sect collects their cores and stores them in their hollow mountain home to preserve the sanctity and dignity of human death. They’ve learned to harness artifacts of the old world, gemstones full of codes their nanite infused bodies can parse as spells imbuing their users with great power; they inlay them into their bodies, into their skins, connected to their cores by copper conduit and gold tracers; they dress themselves in tattoos to advertise their prowess; they battle for relics in arenas, fight for them in the open world wherever they are found. The King Dragon of the Void watches the rock turn and wonders: when will this hunger finally make the rock stop spinning? WELCOME TO FANXING CITY … Twenty-five years ago, Fanxing City and the surrounding lands were commanded by the mad King Zao Beiguan. For many years, the King hoarded wealth, artifacts, food; he demanded tribute from a people already taxed to the edges of their existence and expected they be happy with their circumstances. Noncompliance was often punished harshly, bodies displayed proudly on Fanxing’s streets as a warning, from the city gates to the Zao palace’s golden doors. The youths of several prominent clans came together to overthrow the tyrant and made names for themselves as legendary heroes across the land: Tian, Ren, Feng, Gui, Ma, and Zhenxi. Even wanderers from the Luanshi sect descended from Yunji mountain to aid the rebellion. When the dust settled after three years, Tian Yunyong ascended the throne of Fanxing and swore to honour his slain father’s memory, and has maintained Fanxing’s peace with generosity and mercy where fear and cruelty once reigned.
