A chaotic-looking collage of scanned sketchbook pages. In the centre is a wolf-like rabbit character with their hands clasped in front of their body, staring at the viewer. Various small drawings of a rabbit with one eye crossed out are overlayed on top like stickers. The rest of the image is a cacophony of overlayed sketches, scribbles, writing, and hand-lettering. A scanned sketchbook spread depicting a demon-looking girl in street clothes, backdropped by a mixed media collage. A scanned sketchbook spread depicting exploratory hand-lettering of the words "live laugh love" in graffiti inspired bubble letters.

gravity (3/4)
An image comprised of two photos, a grey-colored statue with a sword and a gold-colored butterfly. The statue has been cut out so that only the sleeves, a hint of hands, and the sword can be seen. The statue stabs the butterfly with a sword, its head and body obscured by black ink. The words "Who are you, really? Your face, your speech, your gait, your thoughts, your sight, your lies, your touch- everything is uncertain. You are so difficult to pin down." are overlaid on top of the image. Two black and white lineart drawings, one on the top half of the image and the other on the bottom. Top half: Kim Dokja holds on to Yoo Joonghyuk, who lays on the ground with one arm slung around Dokja's shoulders. A gold-colored ink splatter covers the area where Dokja's heart is, while Joonghyuk lays in a gold-colored ink splatter. Dokja is greyed out, looking like a spirit, while Joonghyuk is fully inked. The words "It seems that we're important somehow. (In life and in death, again and again.) I'm alive because of you. Do you understand the weight of that? I don't know what to do without you." are beside the drawing. Bottom half: A greyscale drawing of Kim Dokja's hand reaching out to Yoo Joonghyuk's hand, which is covered in blood. The words "I think of you often. I trust you. I'm ashamed. I feel sick. My head hurts. Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?" are beside the drawing. The words "Where are you?" are cut off at the bottom.

A black and white lineart drawing of Kim Dokja in portrait - his face is obscured by a gold-colored bar in the center of the image, leaving only the hint of his nose and the back of his head visible. The words "You say things that make me think you know me. It's unnerving." are overlaid on top of the gold bar. A black and white lineart drawing of Yoo Joonghyuk and Kim Dokja, who appear to the be dancing. Yoo Joongyuk leans towards Kim Dokja, who leans away with an open-mouthed smile on his face. Both men's eyes are obscured by their bangs. A gold-colored splatter is overlaid where Kim Dokja's heart would be. The words "My understanding of you slips through the gaps in my hands. I have existed within you- shared your name, your body; I have spilled your blood, felt your heart stop- and yet, I'm always on edge." are overlaid on top of the image.

happy birthday!! ❤️ (12/12)
A comic page with 6 panels: Kim Namwoon talks to Kim Dokja excitedly. Kim Namwoon waves his hand, ending their conversation. Lee Jihye places a plate with a slice of cake with a strawberry on top in front of Kim Dokja. Kim Dokja looks down at the plate uneasily. Kim Dokja, his shoulders tense, looks up and asks: "Um- what's...?" Yoo Joonghyuk responds: "It's a small cake, divided evenly." A panel from the point of view of Kim Dokja. Uriel, Lee Hyunsung, and Yoo Joonghyuk smile at Kim Dokja from across the table. Lee Jihye and Kim Namwoon turn from either side of him to smile at him. All of them have plates with a slice of cake in front of them, except for Yoo Joonghyuk. A comic page with 3 panels: A set of speech bubbles read as follows: Uriel "Oh but- Captain doesn't have a plate?" Yoo Joonghyuk "I don't eat cake." Lee Jihye "C'mon Captain, at least have some strawberries!" Uriel: "Now isn't the time to be a stubborn bastard-" Yoo Joonghyuk cuts her off before she can say 'bastard', with a stern "URIEL." Lee Hyunsung: "You can have my strawberry if you'd like?" He holds up half of a strawberry on a fork towards Yoo Joonghyuk, who responds "I'm fine." Kim Dokja looks at them, hesitantly picking up his fork. A close-up of his slice of cake. It's a simple cake with 3 layers, with frosting between them. Half of a strawberry slice sits on top, and 3 extra strawberry slices are on the side of the plate. Kim Dokja smiles, his eyes slightly glossy. Speech bubbles with no dialogue fill the space behind him.

A panel of Lee Hyunsung and Yoo Joonghyuk shopping, talking to each other. A comic page with 3 panels: An overhead shot of a dining room table shows many plates of food, including dumplings, grilled fish, and many vegetable dishes. Someone says: "Thank you. We'll eat well again today." An overhead shot of the same dining room table, all of the plates now clear of their food. Someone asks: "Did you eat enough, Dokja?" He responds "Yes, thank you." Kim Namwoon talks amicably to Kim Dokja, their speech bubbles lacking dialogue. Lee Jihye turns towards the kitchen, where Yoo Joonghyuk calls for her: "Lee Jihye." She responds, "Coming!"

A comic page with 4 panels: Lee Hyunsung peeks around a corner, asking: "Joonghyuk-ssi?" Yoo Joonghyuk, sitting in a chair, makes a questioning noise. Lee Hyunsung smiles awkwardly, a hand at his neck. He says "I know you're good at cooking, but what about baking?" Yoo Joonghyuk turns around to look at him: "It depends. Why?" Lee Hyunsung stands next to him, still holding a hand to his neck awkwardly: "Well, Dokja's birthday is soon and we're thinking that-" Yoo Joonghyuk cuts him off, his arms crossed: "Birthday?" Lee Hyunsung, quietly, continues: "Or- yes?" A comic page with 4 panels: Lee Hyunsung says: "He did say we shouldn't worry about celebrating, but..." Yoo Joonghyuk looks up at him from the chair, frowning. Looking away from Lee Hyunsung, Yoo Joonghyuk says "...I'll make something. We'll get ingredients tomorrow." Lee Hyunsung looks at him with wide eyes, his hand dropping from his neck. He smiles at Yoo Joonghyuk.

A comic page with 4 panels: Uriel knocks on a door. A young Kim Dokja answers "C-come in?" Uriel, Kim Namwoon, and Lee Jihye stand at Kim Dokja's door. Uriel says "Hello, Dokja! We had a question for you..." Kim Dokja, sitting on his bed, asks: "...What is it?" Uriel responds "Do you have anything you want to do for your birthday?" Kim Dokja stiffens. A comic page with 6 panels: Kim Dokja says "Oh! Um, you don't have to do anything! I'm okay. Please don't trouble yourselves." He waves his hand in surprise, bows slightly, and smiles. Uriel asks, her hands clasped: "Are you sure?" Kim Dokja responds, smiling awkwardly: "Yes. Things like that don't matter." Uriel closes his bedroom door behind her as Lee Jihye, Kim Namwoon, and Lee Hyunsung all look at each other. Uriel says "...Alright, then, sorry for bothering you." Kim Dokja responds "It's okay."
