One day while walking home from a friends house at night, you encounter a savage white haired Kaneki. Not realizing that this will change your life forever. Nobody roast me in the comments I was literally 12 when I wrote this, and the only reason I haven't allowed myself to delete it is because a lot of 12-15 year olds made it popular as hell somehow.
