fan comic of omniscient readers viewpoint. The first panel depicts gears. the second panel depicts gears and a clock hand with dark figures as the minute of the clock.the third panel depicts lee hyunsung, uriel, lee jihye and kim namwoon with their faces blurred. the fourth and fifth panel depicts pages scattering. Yoo joonghyuk is pushing apart the first and second panels.there are cracks in the comic panel where his hands are. Only his face and upper body are visible. the rest of his body is hidden behind the comic panels. his face is covered in shadows and he is looking down at kim dokja. only kim dokjas side profile is seen. he is standing in front of the comic panels and his face is covered in shadows

[this person is not a 'character']

in all honesty, theres something almost visceral when yoo joonghyuk wants to be seen as human. when you are a character, every facet of yourself is cut and arranged for the narrative. the parts of yourself that dont fit, that dont conform to the story are left behind. hidden in between the pages.its almost vulnerable, wanting to be seen as more than the aspects of your life. He is a regressor and a former regressor. he is the protagonist but he is also a reader and author. He is a 'character' and he is so, so human.
