Love in between {arisu x black!fem!OC}

In a world where survival is a game and every choice could be your last, Borderline Wonderland follows Kiko Shiro - fully unforgettable. Raised in Tokyo, Kiko grew up standing out in every room she walked into. With her bubblegum pink curls, bold fashion, and razor-sharp wit, she refused to blend in - even when the world tried to force her into silence. She learned early to turn stares into power and judgment into confidence.

Kiko met Arisu back in primary school - the quiet genius with tired eyes and a heavy heart. While he struggled to fit into his own family, Kiko battled to be seen beyond her skin. Together, they forged a bond built on intellect, outsiderhood, and quiet understanding. Over the years, Arisu fell hard for her wild spirit. But, of course, Kiko never noticed.

Now, adulthood has arrived - and so has the Borderlands.

One moment, they were just two friends walking separate paths. The next, they're fighting for their lives in a twisted version of Tokyo where survival is earned through deadly games, trust is currency, and emotions can get you killed.

Kiko is still fearless, still sarcastic, still the brightest thing in the dark. And Arisu? He's still madly in love with the girl who has no idea she holds his entire heart.

But in a world that breaks the strongest minds and punishes the softest hearts, will love be their weakness - or their secret weapon?

Welcome to the Borderlands. The rules are simple: Play the game. Survive. Don't fall in love...
Too late.
