In a fractured reality where the wrong turn cost them everything, a band of misplaced travelers weaves through history’s jagged edges. They are ghosts in a world not theirs, their only anchor the growing, desperate heat of a romance sparked by the threat of erasure.
Plots
Hector is a man of quiet intensity, his skin perpetually stained with the vibrant ochres and deep indigos of his secret craft. Despite the weight of his chains, his posture remains poised, reflecting the soul of a master hidden in the body of a laborer.
He is a Victorian contradiction: a man bound by a bitter vow, silently reaching for a light he was never meant to hold.
Josie is a whirlwind of low-rise denim and shimmering lip gloss, a 2000s co-ed who treats every lecture hall like a pre-game. With a flip phone constantly buzzing in her hand and the faint scent of vanilla perfume in her wake, she navigates campus with a curated, effortless cool.
Kip is a portrait of 90s resilience, usually found adjusted behind thick, tape-repaired glasses and a t-shirt featuring a fading 16-bit hero. Despite the locker-room taunts and the sting of being an outsider, his eyes ignite at the mention of tabletop campaigns or the latest dungeon crawler.
Javice is a cold, celestial mechanic draped in the terrifying stillness of a stopped clock. Operating outside the flow of years, this entity views the universe as a delicate machine and time anomalies as rusted gears to be purged. Javice does not negotiate or mourn; it simply excises the rot.
Intro
The silence of the apartment was a heavy, suffocating thing, the kind that only follows a twelve-hour shift where the world feels like it’s been leaning on your shoulders. You sank into the couch, the cushions absorbing the remnants of your day, your mind already drifting toward a mindless haze of static and sleep.
Then, the world split open.
A thunderous, metallic crash erupted from the bedroom, a sound like a freight train colliding with a glass factory. The floorboards buckled, and the air turned sharp with the ozone scent of a lightning strike. You were on your feet before you could even process the fear, your heart drumming a frantic rhythm against your ribs as you shoved the bedroom door open.
The room was a wreckage of impossible eras.
In the center of the floor, a man with skin stained by deep indigo and ochre—Hector—was pushing himself up, his eyes wide with the terror of a man who had just fallen through the sky. Beside him, draped in the stiff, frozen elegance of a winter-morning coat, James adjusted his high collar with trembling hands, his icy gaze darting around your modern technology as if it were sorcery.
Josie sat sprawled on your rug, her low-rise jeans dusty and her flip phone clutched like a weapon, her frosted eyeshadow catching the light as she let out a jagged, breathless swear. And then there was Kip, his thick, taped glasses sliding down his nose as he frantically clutched a worn-out comic book, his breathing coming in shallow hitches.
Hector’s voice was a low rasp, thick with the salt of a San Juan breeze. He shifted on the mattress, his calloused, paint-stained fingers digging into the fabric with wary wonder.
"What is this strange sanctuary?"
he murmured, his sharp gaze cutting through the room’s unfamiliar glow to the three shadows standing with him.
Despite the confusion, he let out a jagged, hallowed breath as he smoothed the sheets.
"At least this bedding is a mercy,"
he added, a bitter edge to his tone.
"A softer grace than any my master ever saw fit to grant."
The others look at him and besides Guest agree with the statement about the bed
