Ivan has spent his entire life in a place where silence is survival and conformity is currency. In his small, tight-fisted town, masculinity is a performance, and anyone who slips out of their assigned script becomes a target. Surrounded by casual cruelty, loud bigotry, and people who look through him instead of at him, Ivan has learned to swallow every part of himself that could ever be used against him. But the act is starting to suffocate him. Haunted by the version of himself he's been forced to bury, Ivan's days become a series of small symbols and quiet breakdowns: mirrors he can no longer look into, rainstorms he stands in like confessionals, a locked room full of childhood colors he isn't allowed to love, and a phone full of secrets he hides like a crime. Every touch is dangerous. Every look is a threat. Every desire feels like a sin he was born carrying. Cover Art Credit: @Ker_bers on x

Till realizes his feelings for Ivan and becomes desperate to hold on to any piece of him he can have. He begins indulging in his darker urges in spite of his growing guilt because he can't bring himself to confess. Ivan has already been playing the same game for years. Honestly, Till's an amateur in comparison... HEAVILY Inspired by the manga Stalker x Stalker by Kadiro Main story, COMPLETE Side stories, ongoing

Till never expected to see Ivan again-especially not as his assigned college roommate. After drifting apart post-high school, their relationship had become a blur of unspoken feelings and silences too long. But now, in the small, sunlit Room 307, the two are given a second chance. Ivan, now an architecture student with a quiet demeanor and late-night design habits, isn't the same boy Till remembers. And Till, a literature major who still doodles in the margins of every notebook, finds himself both nervous and curious. As the semester rolls on, shared spaces become shared moments-takeout on the floor, sleepy conversations at 2 a.m., midterms survived with tea and laughter. Slowly, their walls fall. Between art exhibits, campus festivals, snow days, and movie nights, their friendship blossoms into something softer, deeper. And maybe this time, they won't leave things unsaid.

Ivan and Till have been best friends since childhood - inseparable, loyal, and seemingly unbreakable. But when they enter college together, the cracks in their bond begin to show. Ivan has harbored a deep, unspoken crush on Till for years, a quiet obsession that only intensifies as they grow older. Till, on the other hand, has these unfamiliar feeling. He doesn't even know what he feels anymore. While Ivan clings to their shared history and the illusion of something more, Till remains blissfully unaware or willfully ignorant, using Ivan's devotion as emotional support without realizing (or admitting) the damage it causes. Their friendship slowly turns toxic: full of emotional manipulation, guilt, dependency, and unbalanced love. Ivan can't let go, and Till can't give what Ivan needs. Eventually, the truth spills out - Ivan confesses. What follows is silence, distance, and a heartbreaking experience. Will they find love for one another?

Till has always been a gentle and emotionally grounded boy, trying to navigate friendship and love in an unsteady boat all by himself. At school, students called him "Creepy Till". He lived in his own world, lost in his love for art and psychology, and often forgot to exist anywhere else. He never learned how to make friends, every interaction he had was awkward, every attempt to connect clumsy and uncertain. He had a lot of fears : attention, crowds, but the biggest of all tortured him in his sleep. Till suffered from recurring nightmares since middle school. When a new student joined his class and sat beside him, Till realized that the boy whose gaze haunted his every nights truly existed, that he was more than a product of his imagination. Ivan entered his life suddenly, like a storm. He was everything Till wasn't: magnetic, confrontational, and impossible to ignore. He was unpredictable, impossible to read, his behavior was erratic, he seemed to both despise and need Till at the same time. Raised in a household where love and hate were indistinguishable, he was left with a warped sense of intimacy. The quiet rejection that Till gave him was unbearable and made him remember his lowest moments. He couldn't stand the way he looked at him and avoided him. That's why he decided that, if he was going to be hated anyway, he might as well earn it. What begins as a series of misunderstandings, lies and deliberate cruelty, soon reveals something else beneath: a desperate longing to be seen, to be loved, and to heal. This is a story about love distorted by pain, about two boys trying to bound from broken pieces. Over time, Till's quiet empathy begins to reach the wounded child buried inside Ivan. And for the first time, the raven haired boy realized that hatred isn't the same as love, and that what's truly his doesn't need to be marked in order to be real.
