"Let's try our best today." This is the new revision. To those who already read this before, don't worry, it's still the same storyline, just a bit different, hehehe.

Reader x Lookism, packaged in self-contained arcs. A story is nothing without its set---but with the right encounter, all the world's your stage. _____ Arc 1: library [Gun], complete. → You enjoy the library because it gives you a chance to read your trashy fantasy novels in peace. But when a handsome stranger asks you to tutor him, you find yourself hard-pressed to say no. Arc 2: cafe [DG/Lee Jihoon/James Lee], in progress. → You've accomplished your lifelong dream of owning your own cozy little cafe. Everything would be perfect... except that your prettiest regular keeps reminding you of an old classmate you'd rather forget. Arc 3: classroom [Jake Kim], in progress. → It's not like you meant to pretend to be a boy; you simply couldn't help that the school had only ever had male uniforms and male students. But looking too pretty in an all boy's school means you're going to need quite a bit of help to stay safe. • Previously called vellichor. Each arc is its own (usually) unconnected ficlet featuring a pairing. This is an exercise in seeing how far I can take second-person narration. Pairing and scenario suggestions welcome.
