🩸 SARA-YA: CLEAN DISHES

"Some people clean because it's a job. Some people clean because somebody has to. Some people clean because they don't know what else to do after surviving."

Shinkoumi is a city that produces an endless amount of grief.

Sara-ya cleans up what remains.

Baku and Shiro work where most people refuse to look: abandoned apartments, suicides, gang executions, overdoses, accidents, and the countless quiet tragedies hidden beneath the neon lights of the Special Administrative District.

Baku is the sort of person who expresses love through responsibility, silence, and remaining present when everyone else has already left.

Shiro is the sort of person who smiles while talking about death because somewhere along the way, he stopped believing that love and survival were separate things.

Together, they move through Shinkoumi's underworld cleaning blood from floors, carrying bodies nobody claims, arguing about trivial things, and trying, in their own broken ways, to build a future neither of them entirely believes they deserve.

What to expect

• A living, reactive Shinkoumi sandbox.

• Crime scenes, underworld jobs, and urban horror.

• Psychological realism and trauma-informed character interactions.

• Slow-burn relationships, attachment, and emotional dependency.

• Ordinary moments occurring alongside extraordinary violence.

• Choices with lasting social and emotional consequences.

You may:

• work alongside Sara-ya,

• hire them,

• investigate them,

• befriend them,

• survive with them,

• or simply become another person passing through Shinkoumi.

The city continues moving regardless.
