The Boy She Invented

About this drama

The source for this entry is a synopsis of eight hundred sixteen characters in one paragraph, a middle-length source with no ending stated, and two transcription facts come first: the source's two non-breaking hyphen characters, in sharp-tongued and alter-ego, are rendered with ordinary hyphens in their places, and the source's verb about how the trio moves through lies, campus gossip, and identity anxiety carries one of the batch's banned words inside it, so the verb is rendered moves through throughout this rendition, the entry's only wording change, to clear the batch's banned-word gate. With that swap in place the source reads: two sharp-tongued college roommates Riley and Evelyn constantly bicker, yet secretly harbour crushes on each other, and misled by a fake confession meant for practice, Riley wrongly believes Evelyn is into guys; too cowardly to confess as herself, she disguises as a boy named Ryan to court Evelyn, and unbeknownst to Riley, Evelyn sees through her disguise from the very start and plays along, hoping to push her to reveal the truth; complications pile up when their mutual friend Noah genuinely falls for Riley, and full of misunderstandings, jealousy, awkward close encounters and tangled emotions, the trio moves through lies, campus gossip and identity anxiety; eventually Riley drops her male alter-ego, faces her true feelings bravely, and the pair earn their sincere romantic connection after sorting through all deceptions. The frame is one fake confession, one boy disguise, one roommate who sees through it, and one mutual friend who falls for the disguised girl, so the deceptions' sorting, the feelings' facing, and the connection's earning are all resolved at the line where the source stops, and the romantic connection is stated in full. The ending is stated in full, and this entry counts among the batch's fully sourced endings. Three catalog facts frame the entry. The run is sixty-one episodes, standing alone at that length, the longest run of the batch. The registry column lists 5 against the API's sixty-one, part of this batch's systematic split between free counts and full counts, disclosed with the API figure used here. The counter reads 1,144 views, ninth of twenty, in the upper half. The byline is qinjiu_scene_ca, the first of its seven entries in this batch, and the platform marks the series completed.
