I made a small mind map simulation to visualize how the story for the Blade × Dan Heng × Caelus comic might develop. This isn’t the final script yet — it’s more like a structural outline to help me see how the story could flow and branch.
The story begins with a simple morning scene.
Caelus is cooking breakfast in the kitchen when Dan Heng comes in and the two start talking casually. During the conversation, Caelus suddenly mentions that his ex-boyfriend is coming to visit. Naturally, Dan Heng is confused by this.
A moment later, a voice calls from the living room.
That person turns out to be Blade.
Caelus introduces Blade and briefly explains why he came to the house. But after that, Dan Heng quietly takes Caelus aside and they have a private conversation. What they talk about there will remain hidden for now.
After that moment, the tension eases for a while. Caelus, Dan Heng, and Blade spend the rest of the day talking and doing normal activities together until nighttime.
When it’s time to sleep, Blade sleeps in the living room, while Caelus and Dan Heng share the bedroom.
Then around midnight, Blade quietly sneaks into their room while the two are asleep. His initial target is Dan Heng.
At that point the story becomes darker. Blade begins doing inappropriate things to Dan Heng while he’s unconscious, and even threatens that if Caelus were to see him in that state, he might not want Dan Heng as his boyfriend anymore.
From here, the story begins to branch into different paths.
One possible direction is Dan Heng staying silent, which leads to a darker sequence of events the next morning. In that route, Dan Heng later cooks breakfast and secretly plans to drug Blade through the food.
Another possible direction is Dan Heng refusing and kicking Blade out, which leads to a different confrontation involving Caelus.
There are also several places in the mind map marked with “…”. Those are parts where I ran out of ideas while sketching the structure. I’ll probably fill those in later as I continue developing the comic.
So this mind map is basically a rough framework for a branching story. It helps me organize the direction of the narrative while leaving room to expand and improvise when I actually draw the comic.
In other words, the structure exists, but the details will grow naturally during the creation process
