Life is short, break the rules,
Forgive quickly, kiss slowly,
Love truly, laugh uncontrollably.
And never regret anything that made you smile. ¶

VI DO ALTEANS is actually a shared account between Ruka and Kira of エブレーアルタナEVRAE ALTANA.
Listed here are the collaborative fiction/songs we're working on.
PULSE (Fiction; Action)
PULSE, is a novel that is heavily inspired by Natsuo Kirino’s novel, OUT. It is about the ugliness and despair of the society in which we live in now—the deterioration of youth and the broken past ethics of the old. The setting is in Japan, presumably Tokyo where the day truly starts off at night. Cultural influences such as the yakuza, host clubs, pachinko, and baccarat—they are all included to describe such a harsh modern reality. The novel has no particular main character, for all the characters are to be brought to life—to have a pulse of their own, so to speak.
shapeless cage (Fiction; Sci-fi)
After a nuclear explosion in year 2008, much of the world had changed into what would be a fascist society run by corrupt government officials. Turns out the explosion was planned by the higher-ups, a stunt that'd grant them more power amongst the common people. More than 3.4 billion people died in these successions of nuclear catastrophes—some nations ceased to exist in the aftermath of the explosions. And a greater amount of the remaining population suffers from physical and mental ailments having been exposed to high levels of radiation. Women have become infertile and scarce, as well—the population of the world is dwindling. Most people live in poverty—the slums scattered about the atomic ruins. The wealthy only consists of the corrupt politicians, whereas the rest are left to fend for their survival.
TRAGIC KILL SHOW (album) (Poetry; Song)
エブレーアルタナEVRAE ALTANA: Music, fashion, truth, deceit, sex, androgyny, ugliness, vanity, pain, desire, madness. All words of which we want to express through our music. We're a visual rock group inspired by Japanese rock bands that precedes and influences us. With our music we expose human truths, underlying madness, and love that comes with despair. A sadness that we as all humans share.
