I am proud to have run away. I am proud to have fallen in love. I am proud to have lied. To have killed. I am proud to have survived, at least in a way… And I am proud of writing my story to you.” Although thought to have died, Etsuko Nokori wakes up in a hospital months after his drug overdose in a world filled with monsters.

Etsuko, who hated his previous life’s people, fell in love with his current ones. He now desires nothing more than for everyone in his current life to live and stay with him.

A hand above and a hand below, To steal their stars and stunt their growth. Beneath the earth, the hidden lie, Our hands descend while they reach high Whose line is it that I must tow? ____________________________ On the other side they beckon to go, Their rise deep down, the difference unknown. Shall I follow their path? Face up, down low. Whose line is it that I must tow? ____________________________ Down there, they're lost. Like mice in a maze They scathe and they steal under Death's weary gaze Yet still, as they look, their aim looks on high Where their dreams begin, ours have long since died Whose line is it that I must tow? ____________________________ Birthed with eyes that cast down; we've never asked why. "Divine, our blood", they claim, and they lie. If down there are the bees, then up here, the beehive. We are the hands that steal the sky.
