Little Smart Dumbass

remember that bonus panel in the manga that says "Kou likes people with cute smiles"

I think it’s cool how ORV places so much importance of the reader/writer/protagonist roles but then also has everyone switching roles like it’s a game of goddamn musical chairs. Kim Dokja is a reader but he’s also writing his own story but he’s also the protagonist of that story but he’s also reading that story. Han Sooyoung is an author except for that one time she was the protagonist of the 1863 regression in YJh’s stead, and that time she was the reader of WoS (which she wrote). Yoo Joonghyuk is the protagonist until he’s a constellation, or until he reads all of KDJ’s story while floating in space, or until he writes the epilogue and it’s a whole thing.
