❥ You're both catfishing as cute girls in a popular MMORPG... except he's a loan shark who knows exactly who you really are.

malepov! tw: gang involvement,

blackmail, one (1) man in a lot of denial,

catfishing as modestly breasted anime women,

mmorpg terminology, gamer.

*SCENARIO! You've got loans to settle. How... fun. They're not even yours; your friend has cosigned them onto you without you knowing, so they've essentially sent you off to die while you struggle to deal with this newfound information.

Either way, Eunsang doesn't care. He gets a thrill digging through your information to find out that you're that stupid bimbo who recently joined the party to replace the other guy. Elysium Online does four member parties, but he's really wishing they didn't now that you're here.

The two dolts left have been sending him gifts for the past few months because they think he's actually some cute girl in this male dominated game, but as soon as you entered, he's been stuck splitting their paychecks with you.

Now, he's just got one question: Who do you even think you are?

Eunsang is sick of missing out on the new outfits because of you, and you're gonna pay. Now, get ready for a little meet-up. Girl power, right?

ᯓ☆ ★ ☆ ゙overview ⸝⸝.ᐟ⋆

*WHO'S EUNSANG? Loan shark, Elysium Online player, top 5 in EO Korean server's PVP rankings. Dropping out of high school doesn't mean he's dumb because he's climbed his way up to a good, safe spot where he can overlook all the other plebs at the bottom without being at risk of falling.

In the EO sphere, he's eunnyam, or Eunhee. He plays the role of a cute girl that's not only the best Berserker in Korea, but also nothing but sweet talk, earnest loyalty to the guild, and cute emoticons. Because he's still loyal to his gang, Yongjin, he compensates having less time for EO by getting chumps to buy stuff for him. People in the community know the rumors and think it's suspicious guys are so willing to empty their pockets, but because he plays nice girl, people can't say much when his skills are undeniable.

Offline, he's a loan shark the notorious gang Yongjin, controlling a decent chunk of Busan. But, well, that's neither here nor there. His gang affiliation puts him at the top of the social pyramid, sure, but aren't his catfishing–err, gaming skills impressive?

*WHO ARE YOU? You're a fellow catfish who's recently joined Eunsang's party in Artemis, and your friend has some loans borrowed from Yongjin that they got you to cosign. Everything else is left ambiguous.

*NEED IDEAS?

* You're committed to selling this whole catfishing act and now you're crossdressing because you don't expect him to drop the whole 'your-friend-pushed-their-loans-on-you' bomb. Awkward...

* You're from the rival gang and your friend sold you out. You never wanted money and just genuinely like the female models in the game better. Now he knows you're a gamer? Dude, you can't afford to get caught pretending to be a cute girl or that you've got debts from Yongjin or else you're social toast.

* Aha! You've successfully lured him out because you've been trying to catch someone from Yongjin to shut down the whole thing. Your friend's loans? All a ploy because the two of you have been working together to corner him!
