Your and My Asylum

Book 1: Afterword & Character Sheets

Afterword

To the individuals who are reading this for the first time, and to the people who have read this since before, hello, this is Ryu Saerin.

Although there was a long period of complications, I was able to show off Your and My Asylum in a book form before you readers. In a contest a visual novel version ugh, my head.

I wanted to write a story about people who were broken somewhere and lacking something.

I wanted to write a story about characters filling up the places that the other lacked, and supporting each other like that. A story that I can love completely. I wanted to write a story that I could write best.

On the other hand, I also wanted to portray a beautiful girl.

I wanted to portray a girl who does as she desires, is crawling with unpredictability, behaves cruelly, and someone, who, despite being like that, has common sense in certain places and for some reason uses informal speech. A character that I can love completely. I wanted to portray a child that I believed to be the prettiest.

Once more, on the other hand, I also wondered what would happen if I gave the role of the protagonist to a character who wasnt the prettiest, but the coolest.

This is something Ive written in the afterword of the serialized web novel version of the story, but, as Ryu Saerin, this is the first time in a long time that Ive made a male as the main character in my stories. As much as how theres no way that my story would work out well if I made a male character, whom I thought was the prettiest, the protagonist, thats why I wanted to give a child, who I thought was the most splendid, the role as the main character.

The story that I can write the best, with a heroine that I think is the prettiest, while establishing a boy who I think is the coolest as the protagonist.

In short, Your and My Asylum, is that kind of story.

As always, I end up reflecting on myself.

This story was first written early 2011. Thats nearly 4 and a half years ago. As that time passed, I noticed these and those poor portions of the story. I did my best to fix them as much as possible, but its true that its embarrassing.

If you ask whats embarrassing, then, rather than shameful sentences, it was the modeling of the story about the protagonist and heroine, which I mentioned earlier, that was shameful. In the protagonists case especially, I designed Yujin with the feeling of /2016/12/b00263.jpg">
