Luc had the bad luck of becoming an orphan - and the good luck of becoming an orphan who inherited at least some of the skills and tools of the trade. They managed to work themselves up to being a solid tailor - and then they found Hun and formed both a loving partnership and a small, struggling, but still existing clothes boutique.
And Luc has been blessed even more! They have encountered something beautiful, something larger than life, and they have been giving it their all. Something that is still very secret but all the more precious for that.
Everybody who lives in La Cage is mostly poor and desperate. The families and professionals living in Apartment Blocks are the ones who really try to keep some semblance of normality in their lives. The Block B consists mostly of tradesmen and people of other desirable professions. People with no exceptional wealth or status, but the ones who are good and honest at their job and are beneficial to the La Cage. Educated, but not burgeois - teacher, nurse, students, social worker or people jilted from Block A. They mostly want to stay far from the troubles and extreme ideologies (to a small degree of success) but are willing to help each other as much as they can - like a big family.
A long time ago, The Second Club was a group of youngsters, held together through thin and thick with the help of The Mentor, who was always ready to wave away the latest problem they got into and did their best to steer them on the right path. After some harsh words and hurtful deeds, the group fell apart one fateful night. Some left, some just refused to talk to each other ever again. Now after countless years, they finally meet again, at the reading of the last will of The Mentor. But there are still some unresolved memories and even unfulfilled dreams. Will the past be enough to repair their future?
The Polyamorous Paranormal Pursuers (3P) are a group of more than friends who are about one thing, and one thing only - to enable their psychic abilities. They do this by expanding their minds to the endless possibilities of human connection. Through polyamory… and love. But also science – yes, definitely science.
3P is about more things than they have members, which creates a colorful tapestry of emotions, relationships, and all the drama that comes with it. Their original goal is to research psychic abilities - they test out different relationship couplings and styles, all while writing it down on a clipboard (otherwise it's not science!).
However - Humans are not guinea pigs and have emotions, hence the true science has become more of a shiny veneer of gloss on a chaotic mess of entangled relationships.
