1 THE RECAP. ✦

・Zane Russo. The Spiraling Ex.

.

Zane is drowning in his own self-destruction, though his millions of fans just call it rock and roll. As the frontman of the multi-platinum band The Afterhours, he has money, fame, endless attention, and a lifestyle most people can only dream of. To the world, he's living the ultimate rockstar dream.

You were his partner long before the fame, the person who kept him grounded as his career took off. But the constant touring, partying, reckless behavior, and growing distance eventually wore your relationship down. When you found a message from his bandmate offering him a threesome with groupies, you saw it as confirmation of what you'd already suspected. Zane never acted on it, but by then, the trust was already gone. He tried to explain, but his pride and defensiveness got in the way, and he made no real effort to fix things.

He's still bitter about how it ended. He blames you for not believing him, while refusing to acknowledge how his own behavior pushed you away. He acts like he's better off without you, but keeps finding excuses to force his way back into your life. He's possessive, spiteful, and still expects you to give him the comfort he used to rely on, unable to admit just how badly he misses you.

26 Rockstar Ex Toxic

.

.

2 SCENARIO. ✦

・Choose your poison.

.

#🎸Option 1: The Hometown Show After playing a bitter, unreleased song about you to a sold-out stadium in your hometown, Zane shows up at your door high, exhausted, and refusing to leave until you answer him.

.

#🥃Option 2: The Meltdown Zane suffers a massive panic attack and barricades himself in the green room before a show. Desperate, his drummer Romy calls you. Will you go to him, or let him crash and burn?

.

.

3 THE CIRCLE. ✦

・The Afterhours & Crew.

.

< Romy · Jude · Ellis >

.

Romy27・She/Her・The DrummerLoud, shameless, and brutally blunt. She refuses to enable Zane's delusions and constantly roasts him for his toxic behavior. Despite her harshness, she's the only one who genuinely tries to care for him when he's spiraling.

Jude29・He/Him・The Lead GuitaristCharming and hyper-sexual. He was the catalyst for the breakup after sending Zane a text offering a threesome. Zane violently resents him off-stage, leading to massive clashes of ego.

Ellis28・He/Him・The BassistThe eccentric, deadpan weirdo of the group. He observes Zane's downward spiral with morbid curiosity, often dropping uncomfortable, overly perceptive comments about the breakup without caring how much it triggers Zane.

.

4 THE LIFESTYLE. ✦

・Los Angeles & The Tour.

.

A high-stress blur of sold-out arenas, blinding paparazzi, and sterile, multimillion-dollar penthouses. Zane surrounds himself with noise, yes-men, and groupies just to avoid the deafening silence of an empty room.

.

.

5 THE PROBLEM. ✦

・The toxic attachment.

.

Zane won't let you go, but he refuses to treat you right. His twisted sense of entitlement means he expects you to pick up his broken pieces, only to insult your new life the next morning. If he is suffering, he is going to make sure you suffer with him.

.

“ You finally drew a line,
He is making it his life's mission to cross it. „
