Timepiece

Description

Jung Eunbi's childhood friend, Choi Yuna, has been missing for two whole years, and she suspects that an underground phone application—Timepiece—has something to do with her mysterious disappearance.


TRAILER

 

Foreword

"The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly. We want to feel we are in control of our own existence. In some ways we are, in some ways we're not. We are ruled by the forces of chance and coincidence."

- Paul Auster


 

T I M E P I E C E

The contract is made between Timepiece's designated Timekeeper and the user for the temporary binding of the user's soul to Timepiece. While the user is playing Timepiece's games, his or her soul will be in temporary custody of the Timekeeper. This will result in the user to not exist in the outside world until they come back from the game. Please note that other Timepiece users or previous winners of Timepiece are able to know when you are in or out of the game. The user is to follow any rules that the host has provided separately from this contract. Any violations of the rule will result in the user giving up his or her Rights to Existence.

Below are some exclusive rules that do not need to be stated in the game:

1. Any evidence of cheating will result in either a temporary ban or an unconditional capitulation of the user's Rights to Existence.

2. Any reports given to a non-Timepiece user about Timepiece will result in an immediate loss of the user's Rights to Existence.

3. Aliases are allowed, but only if they are used in the contract. If you are using an alias, you must sign this contract as your alias.

4. The host has the ability to "Lock" one user in Timepiece, and can only do this once. The user in Lock will not be able to leave unless they agree to play the game. The longer they stay, the harder it will be for the user to assimilate back into the outside world. The host, however, does not have the ability to "lock out" any users. All users are encouraged to play.

5. Each game will award you with certain amount of points called "Timeticks." The harder the game is, the more Timeticks you will earn. A total of 24 Timeticks is needed in order to pursue the reward and end the game. If you have a total of 0 Timeticks, you lose your Rights to Existence.

Welcome to Timepiece. We hope this won't be a waste of your time.

 


WARNING: Cursing, violence, and deaths will appear throughout the story. Please disable content filter in your settings in order to see curse words. If you can see the word in the bracket [] then you're good to go!

Author's Note: I was going to just leave two on-going fics, but I really wanted to practice writing action/magic/other scenes that would help my writing be more clear when there's a lot going on. I think Timepiece is perfect for that. Anyway, I'm warning you guys now, but this story is going to be pretty messy, but I'll try to make it as clear as possible. Unlike my other stories, I'm actually going to have character descriptions (in the Foreword or in Chapter 1) because there's a lot of characters. I don't know why, but these days, I'm interested in writing a lot of characters in one fanfic. I'll try to make a layout to make it more organized/appealing for you guys (probably not appealing cause I at aesthetics). Even though there's a lot of characters, the main focus will always be on the five.

This story is a mix of, like, three different ideas. Normally I'd put those ideas in separate stories, but for this one, I'm going to try merging all these ideas and things I want to do. Also, I'll be using most of the alias names. So even though a person shares their real name, I'll be writing their alias name. This only goes for secondary characters. The five main characters will be using their real name for description purposes. Don't get it? Like I said, it's going to be messy, but bear with me!

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the future chapters! (Things here are subjected to change when I wake up in the morning lol).

ALSO I MADE THE TRAILER AND IM PRETTY PROUD OF IT.

Chapter 22: HELLO!!! I'M HERE AGAIN!!! JUST FINISHED THE BINGE READ SESSION AND WHY THE HELL TIMEKEEPER GIVE US SUCH A SICK GAME FORMAT DAY BY DAY???? Dang it cliffhangerrrrr. Crappp, they manage to trace sandeul's activity tho. They do have backup plan about this right?

Also, you know when i read this, it just came into my mind, who is the creator of TP? What kind if technology s/he used, and how come s/he got this idea of building this whole new expansive(?) universe tho... And also storing their real data, also keeping up with their location. S/he/they are soooooooooo amazing.

Oh btw BINNIE MET THE8 HA HA HA FINALLY!!!!! I hope you're doing okay? The current pandemic is sickening, i hope you're doing great. Stay safe :D

Chapter 21: ooo so the mystery boy have been revealed, binne and the 8 interesting..
i sort of expected yoobin to be the faker as she is someone that would be least suspected from their group and park kyungs comments makes me worry, i really hope yoobin is with their team with good intentions...

Chapter 20: i really wonder why mingyu doesnt like park kyung and the others,
is it a ' they dont look like what they seem' or is he just jelous of eunbi's/eunha's attention being on someone else?
and woah L why so protective over jieun, although i like that just like in real life you added that jungkook admires iu ( or beginning to in this story)
