    Summary

    She fought for freedom at every Treeman marketing meeting, trying to keep them from being chained further into the "perfect couple" performance. He barely blinked before clicking his pen and signing whatever contract they shoved in front of him.

    She cursed their deplorable situation, he stayed silent.

    She cried, he walked out of the room.

    She screamed, he didn’t even flinch.

    At times, it really seemed that if Yueqing pressed her ear against his chest, she would hear gears grinding and creaking.

    "Do you have a heart, Mr. Robot?" she remembers asking one night, exhaustion and resignation seeping into her bones. "When are you going to make it work?"

    (It worked. Just before it stopped.)

    Summary

    “You’re dead, Lin Ling!” Miss J shouts, and Lin Ling cowers, sinking deeper into the couch. She shows him the fake article, an image of a dead office worker with eyes that are all too familiar. Sunken eyes. Empty ones. “You’re dead and you can’t go back anymore.”

    It was true.

    (or, Lin Ling on the subject of doctoring a ghost back to life with your own flesh.)

    Summary

    Lin Ling had an annoying little brother.

    He didn't really belived that, he tried not to. But it was difficult when his brother was the pride of the family.

    White hair, blue eyes, and a damn smile on his face, with a bright future as an actor. Nothing compared to him, who took nothing from the family.

    He couldn't stand it as kids, let alone now that he was spending so much time together with Moon.

    Couldn't he keep his hands off the one good thing in his life?

    Summary

    Objectively, he knew that people's trust make heroes who they are, and even what they are to an extent, but he'd never given much thought to how jarring it would be to wake up one day and not see himself in the mirror.
