Your Stage : I have no idea if this is genius or dumb. Possibly both. by Elyen Noir

I have no idea if this is genius or dumb. Possibly both.

Okay, so hear me out.

There's this idea in my head and I can't tell if it's brilliant or just completely insane.

A young soldier during wartime starts falling for a boy imprisoned in a camp.

The boy is pure light — sweet, selfless, always smiling through the horrors.

The soldier? Yeah... he’s not good with emotions.

So instead of confessing his feelings like a normal person,

he secretly helps the boy—gives him food, protects him from beatings, etc.

But also…

Every time he sees the boy smile at someone else?

He makes sure that person ends up… gone.

The boy never realizes his “guardian angel” is also the one destroying everything he loves.

He even starts trusting him.

Meanwhile, the soldier is like:

“You’re mine. Only mine. And if I have to erase the world to keep you, so be it.”

Is it twisted? Yes.

Is it a love story? Also yes.

Do I need to go lie down now? Definitely.

Let me know if this idea sounds like something worth exploring or just pure chaos.

Thank you so much, this means the world to me! It’s one of those ideas that hit you at 3AM and just won’t let go.

I’d love to develop it more — and might take you up on that offer someday! :)

I believe any concept can turn out good or terrible, depending on how it's executed. Develop the story and see how it goes.

Sometimes chaos knows exactly where it’s going. I’ve got a soft spot for dark love stories — we’ll see where this one takes me.
