Y/n L/n is a talented but struggling cosplay and costume designer known online for creating elaborate, theatrical outfits. After years of freelance work and small convention commissions, they receive a mysterious job offer: design costumes for a secretive traveling circus-themed performance project that promises massive exposure and unlimited creative freedom.
Desperate for stability and intrigued by the strange aesthetic of the request, Y/n accepts.
However, the "clients" turn out to be far more unusual than expected.
The costumes become more than clothing-they become symbols of control, identity, and obsession.
Soon the MC realizes the horrifying truth:
They weren't hired just as a designer.
They were chosen to become the heart of the circus.
