    Summary

    "The Doomsday Clock stands at 85 seconds to midnight, making it the closest humanity has ever been to global catastrophe in the clock's history."

    The UN, along with every nation part of it, dread the future, especially with how tense it currently is. The organisation stages an "intervention" in an isolated Siberian resort to regulate ongoing international tensions. No one is allowed to leave the perimeter of the resort.

    Cut off from the outside world and forced into proximity; relationships, conflicts, and secrets come to light. Maybe, just maybe, UN's usually unhelpful ideas can be useful..?

    Summary

    Where a Soviet soldier, trained to face any situation and to be able to blend in with any problem that might arise, manages to infiltrate an American military base specialising in space defense and exploration with clearly malicious intentions, according to the investigations of Soviet experts, to sabotage the United States army and leak information about the experiments carried out at said base.

    But he wasn't just any soldier, and it turned out he wasn't as prepared for anything as he thought... Or at least he wasn't at all prepared for his eccentric office mate.

    For the first time, I'm going to use human names for the countries. It makes sense for the plot, okay?

    Summary

    Seven days. One island. Two men caught between past and purpose.

    After his failed rebellion, Seong Gihun wakes once more beneath the Frontman's gaze—alive, but not free. Between cruelty and compassion, control and surrender, guilt and grace... they find something fragile that might still be called love.

    Summary

    The room is too bright.

    It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.

    It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.

    With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.
