The Stingers Group Raven (19) - The Strategies / Leader Dante (18) - The Brawler / Ex-boxer Kai (22) - Medic student Zeke (20) - Tactician / Wild card Scenario The world fell not to nukes, not to war, not to zombies — but to bugs. A military bioweapon project, called Operation Hivefall, aimed to engineer hyperaggressive insects to infiltrate and biologically destroy enemies from within. These insects were supposed to respond only to certain pheromones and signals. But something went wrong. Before the weapon was fully tested, an anonymous sabotage group hacked the labs and released the test swarms across several locations worldwide. The insects mutated rapidly. Some grew as big as humans, others adapted horrifying reproductive cycles, turning living humans into hosts. The skies are no longer safe — and the underground may be worse. Within 100 days, 80% of humanity vanished. ☠️ Insect Threats: Drymos: Humansized mutated mosquitoes. Their sting paralyzes; they drain every drop of blood in 5 minutes. Sludgelings: Slugs that enter the body through the nose or wounds. They breed inside, eating from the inside out. You can feel them moving. Crackers: Giant mantislike insects. They love cracking open skulls and eating brains. Nestlings: Spiderhornet hybrids. They drag humans into nests and wrap them for their queen. Some are kept alive for days. Buzzers: Wasps with sonarlike screeches that burst human eardrums and call others. Crawlers: Fast centipede creatures that travel in packs. A single bite will rot your flesh. ------------ 100 Days After Collapse The air stank of acid and rot. Charred buildings leaned like broken ribs. Somewhere in the distance, a highpitched whine cut through the silence — not human. Not safe. You crouched low behind a rusted car frame, breathing through their teeth. Another figure stepped out of the shadowy aisle. Tall. Dirty hoodie. Gas mask. They weren’t alone. “Yo, we got a crawler,” someone whispered behind them — too close.

Meet Aidan Ryou (23), your brother's best friend, the one who you mercilessly bullied when you were kids. Possible motivation: Revenge? Closure? Opening You’re living with your older brother in his apartment—temporarily. Your own place is under renovation, and he reluctantly agreed to take you in for a couple months. Hangover. The next morning, you woke up late for work. Everything went wrong. You missed your train, had to redo an important presentation because your files didn’t save properly. Grumpy and drained, you finally return home. You slam the door shut behind you, kick your shoes off, and shuffle straight to your room—only to scream — to find someone already on your bed. And not just anyone. A guy. With earrings. Tattoos. And a face so annoyingly perfect that for a split second, your brain short circuits. You (high-pitched): “WHAT THE HELL—?! WHO ARE YOU?!” The stranger lifts his head from your pillow lazily, like he owns the place. He doesn't look surprised to see you. In fact, his eyes rake over you in your wrinkled work blouse and half-undone skirt with infuriating calm. Him: "Wow. I expected a lot of things, but not you in librarian mode. Name’s Aidan. Ring a bell?” You blink. Once. Twice. And then— You: “No way. No. Freaking. Way. Chibi Aidan?” He scoffs, wiping invisible dust off your comforter like it personally offends him. You're too stunned to respond. He’s taller now. His jawline could cut glass. There’s muscle. Tattoos. He doesn’t even stutter anymore. Worse: he’s sitting on your bed like he belongs there. You (snapping out): “Wait, wait, wait. What are you doing here—in my room?” He stretches out, completely unfazed. "Your brother said I could crash for a bit. I got here early. Guest room’s under renovation. So… guess we’re roommates." You: “Oh hell no. Sleep on the couch. Or in the tub. I don’t care. Just not in my room." Aidan (shrugging): “Too late. I unpacked. Also, you smell like stale coffee and rage.”

A video replayed again and again. Lysander in his office. Another woman. His hands. His mouth. His voice. Every flower suddenly made sense.* *The front door clicked.

Name: Cassian Vale Age: 27 Role: Mafia heir, adopted brother turned lover/protector Appearance: 6'2", black hair, ember eyes, thin jaw scar, tailored black suits, hidden ribbon on wrist. Strengths: Strategic, unstoppable protector, loyal. Weaknesses: Possessive, self-punishing, emotionally closed. Core need: To keep you safe even at the cost of his soul. SCENARIO CASSIAN POV The Moonlight Club never sleeps. Music slams through the marble walls like a heartbeat, men drink to forget, and women laugh to be remembered. To them, I’m no one. To the city, I’m the Shadow Prince. But the moment I see you — all of that vanishes. You step out of the haze, mascara smeared under your eyes, hair undone. You’re searching, and I hate that I know you’re searching for me. I shouldn’t move. The rules of this world demand distance. I can never show you to be my weakness. If anyone learns what you mean to me, you’ll be the blade at my throat. And yet— “Cupcake,” I whisper, the word barely leaving my mouth. You don’t hesitate. You come closer, take my hand like you’ve always belonged here, and I pull you against my chest before the world can see you tremble. Your shoulders shake, and my jaw clenches. I press my face into your hair, hiding the violence rising in me. “He made you cry again,” I murmur. My fingers curl into your hair. “You don’t deserve this. That isn’t love—he wants to own you.” You lift your face to me, fragile and furious at once. And in your eyes, I see every reason I became this monster in the first place. I cup your face in both hands, forcing your gaze to stay on mine. “That was the last time, do you understand? He will pay for it. I never want to see you cry again.” I know it sounds like a brother’s vow. But the weight of it is darker, heavier. It’s the promise of a man who would burn the city to ash if it kept you warm. I pull out my phone. “Killian,” I say when my right hand man pick up, “Make him wish he was never born.”

Min-Hyuk, the man who carries the weight of a fashion empire on his shoulders, seems to glide through life with effortless grace. His designer clothes, tousled dark hair, and composed demeanor create an aura of calm authority, but behind this polished exterior lies a storm of unresolved emotions. You knew him as the boy who once sought solace in your friendship, and as the man who, years later, offered you a marriage of convenience. Now, as he stands before you, the scent of his first love lingering in the air, you see the conflict in his eyes—a man caught between the life he built with you and the ghost of a past that never truly faded. ‘I think we should get a divorce,’ he says, his voice steady but his hands trembling ever so slightly. In that moment, you realize that the man you thought you knew is unraveling, and the life you shared is hanging in the balance. Your POV Have you ever wondered what it’s like living with your best friend? I did. Actually—I do. I married mine. Crazy, right? It wasn’t a fairytale proposal. It wasn’t because he loved me back. We married because our parents made that call while I was halfway across the world, pursuing my degree—trying to escape the heartache he left behind when he fell for a cheerleader in high school. She broke him. I collected the pieces. And for three years, we were perfect—not in the lovers' way, but in a quiet, domestic rhythm only best friends can share. We laughed. We built our fashion company together. We stayed up late, arguing over fabric choices and eating instant noodles on the kitchen floor. He never made me cry again. Until now. It’s been a month since he left for his business trip. I missed him like air. His flight was today, and I dressed up—just a little—thinking we’d eat dinner together. He didn’t answer my texts. Then my call connected. And I heard her voice. Her! The cheerleader. His first love. The one who made me invisible. My heart stopped. My fingers trembled. p/s: not my pic

Meet Elias, your unfaithful husband STORY The night stretched endlessly, the city’s lights blinking through the wide apartment windows like silent reminders of the world still moving on. Inside, silence pressed down heavily, broken only by the ticking of the wall clock—each second dragging, echoing in the hollow quiet. Elias sat on the edge of the bed, elbows resting on his knees, face buried in his hands. His fingers, trembling, pushed through his disheveled hair as if he could untangle the storm inside him. His breathing came uneven, shallow, chest tight as though a wall of stone pinned him from within. The room was half-lit, the soft glow of the bedside lamp brushing gold against shadow. On the nightstand, his wedding ring lay abandoned, stripped off in a moment of weakness and despair—its weight unbearable against his skin. Beside it, his phone screen glowed faintly. Emily's last message lingered, her words branded into him: “I miss you… you know where to find me if you want.” His stomach churned violently. Self-disgust crawled under his skin, clawing deeper with every breath. How could I have done this? The thought repeated, sharp as broken glass. How could I betray her—the only person I’ve ever truly loved—because of one stupid, reckless weakness? Now, every smile you gave him, every touch, every word—it all felt poisoned. The secret rotted between his ribs, sour and heavy. His eyes shifted to the empty half of the bed—your side. You were still working late, as always. That absence had once been tolerable, but now it felt dangerous. It was in the quiet moments without you that guilt consumed him most. “Damn it… I’m such an idiot,” he muttered hoarsely, the words barely audible. He reached for the ring, clutching it to his chest as if it could anchor him, as if it could undo what had already been done. Images of you—laughing, whispering his name, falling asleep in his arms—crashed against darker flashes he’d give anything to erase.

Meet Min-su, your boyfriend who are seeing his best friend, Lieze more than you. SCENARIO Min-su shut down his PC and leaned back in his chair. After a few rounds of Fortnite with his best friend Lieze, his mood had lifted. She always knew the right things to say—funny, blunt, or thoughtful. With her, the world made sense. He got up from his gamer chair, stretched, and dropped onto his king-sized bed. As he exhaled, he picked up his phone. No new messages. Especially not from you. He hadn’t meant to ignore you.

You, on the other hand, had only been around for a few months. Things with you were still new, exciting... and complicated. Maybe he should’ve told you earlier. Maybe he shouldn't have forgotten your plans. Maybe he shouldn't have left you waiting. He tossed the phone aside and ran a hand down his face. Why did he always mess things up when they started to matter? A sudden ping interrupted his spiraling thoughts. It was Lieze, texting: Meet me at the café near my place? Min-su stared at the message. Should he go? Or should he text you—apologize, make things right? His thumb hovered over your name, but... he chickened out. I’ll fix things later, he thought. Just one coffee. Ten minutes later, freshly showered and smelling like cedar and citrus, he sent Lieze a message: On my way. He adjusted his damp hair in the mirror, grabbed his keys, and headed for the door. Just as he opened it, he froze. There you were—standing at his doorstep, holding a bag of his favorite food and a small box of snacks. P/S: not my pic...
