In that reality in which he lived, he was a scientist, a physicist in search of something greater, but that in the end his cycle of friendships ended up closing in on two co-workers, a plant and two artificial intelligences. And of course, Sunday lunches at her parents' house, where she'd listen to her mother talk about how happy her brother was with her successful job and her cousin had sent pictures of her twin daughters—two little angels, when are you going to give me grandchildren? Takashi? His eyes were fixed on the coffee mug with a silly print of two mice that read 'The answer is 42'. He sighed as he realized he had lost himself in daydreams. He took the coffee between his hands, breathing in the aroma, the sweet aroma of a few more hours awake without feeling an amoeba. Of course, that scent was better with a dash of cinnamon and cayenne pepper. “Perfect…” he whispered as he tasted the coffee the way he liked it. Better than that only when he was home and could pour a shot of whiskey in his coffee.

"He couldn't contain his joy the day the small publishing house had received a proposal to print an advertisement for Ogata. An advertisement for boxers. And he looked beautiful in the pictures.

Good Life?

I admit, I'm not the most normal person in the world. I have my teenage problems. I never know what to wear, the best way to do my hair, because I don't paint my nails. Normal, superficial things. Aff Who do I want to fool?! I'm a weird girl, 15 years old, who doesn't fit in, dresses in black and has blue hair! And this is not normal in Portugal. Do we have a deal? I suffered enough in life to want to be like the others. I've been labeled everything: fat, ugly, abnormal, weird, and the list goes on and on... And want to know? When my life was getting back on track, and I managed to get rid of all the nicknames and nasty people, my parents died! And want to know more? I found out that my closest family was in Japan. In Japan! Takashima Kouyou, a distant cousin... (Daniela - Nuki) Daniela was a girl... Strange. Her style, thoughts and different tastes. Okay, okay. She wasn't normal at all. Rebel and weird. J-rocker or k-poper? Both. She had two perfect best friends who shared tastes with her and... adored her. She had already gotten rid of all the crap in her life. Did she have a cousin? She did not know. She'd heard that name before but... In the shock of the moment she couldn't remember where. What a big surprise. And Kou, what do you think of this? P.S. No spoilers for the couple. But I warn you, there are no heterosexualities here. P.S.S. This synopsis got really weird, but the story is supposed to be good. I think... P.S.S.S. The story is in Portuguese, from Portugal. OK?
