## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Ryouhei lands a plum gig at Potato Boy, thanks solely to his staggering libido and the magazine’s willingness to overlook everything else. Seven cups of coffee and one misplaced handshake later, the office’s star editor Yuki may be in serious trouble. The only thing thicker than its pages is the air around him.

**Mood tags**: sexy, unhinged
