AGAINST THE ELEMENTS (ATE) is actually a novel multiverse. I planned for multiple installments. I love to draw my characters, that's why there isn't much description of their physical traits in my writing. You can see them in the thumbnail. Personally, it's because I suck at writing beautiful descriptions, so it puts me off.
My stories are purely for relaxation purposes, the kind you read when you just witnessed a brutal horror story on Netflix.
A bit about the naming in this story, they are from Thailand, and some names I just googled (with some research done) to fit it in my universe, the second book will explain why their names are like so. Sorry to all the Thais out there, if the names sound super weird (it sounds nice to me, from a foreigner point of view). Why they are based in Thailand: because I love Thai BLs, and the way they speak is cute. Inspiration did hit after I watched Thai BLs (so many) and characters were based on the visuals of some pairings. When I was writing it, there are a few actors whom I used as basis.
The naming system is: First name Family Name (Nickname).
If I'm not mistaken, P/Phi is how they address older people and nong is how they address younger ones.
Warnings about this short novel: English is my second language, so please forgive me for the occasional slips. As I said, minimal angst, little character description, censored descriptions of sex (the original scene is on Wattpad), many death threats, jealous partners, stupid schemes and semi-intelligent geniuses. Mind games, unintentional manipulation, censored cussing, a dumbass parent, and a family inheritance determined by Instagram followers.
Please do give me feedback as it will help me write ATE for the future installments, especially character studies. Constructively, please.
Thank you and enjoy.
