Every story is a collaboration. Some are just stranger than others.
For Lustarius, writing is a form of exquisite torture. His co-op buddy, E. Eye, is the logical, deadpan entity who seems to have all the answers-usually in the form of statistical probabilities of failure and brutally efficient, soul-crushing advice. Their mission: to finish a grim, silent apocalypse novel without killing each other first.
Trapped in their messy dorm room, they navigate a minefield of existential dread, absurdly clinical solutions to emotional problems (including "wardrobe therapy"), and the unnerving suspicion that Eye knows more than he's letting on. Much more.
A dark, meta-fictional comedy about friendship, obsession, and the terrifying intimacy of a truly dysfunctional feedback loop. Because sometimes, the greatest horror story is the one you have to write to survive.
