   Summary

   ---------
   AU in which people can speak only a specific amount of words every day.
   Two young men with very different word limits end up living together. Trying to navigate approaching adulthood, current problems and past affairs, they become good friends, when for one of them, it becomes more than friendship...
   ---------
   Letters. Words. Sentences. Paragraphs. Chapters. Novels.
   No matter how much one admires material prosperity, the beauty of nature or the quiet of a lone evening, the world of humans will always be made up by their own thoughts and the speeches flowing into their surroundings. Communication and expressing their own self is the key to the human essence, to their very being.
   If someone were to set a limit to this way of expression, what would happen to society?
   If one could only speak a specific amount of words every day, how would an individual choose to spend their given syllables?
