Description
It’s been twenty years since “Gates,” disaster zones infested with monsters, and “Newtypes,” a new human race of psychics, appeared. Each nation has struggled in its own way to reclaim peace. They established the Deschement Center, an international organization that manages Gates worldwide, and appointed high-ranking Newtypes as “Sentinels.” The strongest Sentinel, without question, is the S-Class Newtype Jae Chaui (在此矣). His name means “I am here,” and like the name implies, he reigns as a timeless, invincible hero and absolute force—never aging, never injured, never fading. Meanwhile, in the ruined corners of the world, lives Song Morae, an E-Class Guide barely surviving a life as barren as a desert. His everyday existence, filled with contempt and oppression, is poor and pale. So when the Deschement Center offers him a job—and even claims he has been selected as an S-Class Guide, the new partner of Jae Chaui—it’s almost beyond belief. “Is that your partner? Just died a moment ago. Time to take on a new one, right?” From the first day they meet, Jae Chaui shatters Song Morae’s world with force and indifference. Even physical intimacy feels hollow, and speaking is even harder—their partnership is chaos. Yet Jae Chaui “likes” Song Morae. Even as he breaks him down, Song Morae remains an incomprehensible mystery. Jae Chaui, despite everything, can’t figure him out. Morae’s silent mystique defies unraveling. “Breaking is easy. Fixing isn’t.” Unless you split open that pretty little head and peek at what’s inside.

My Thoughts on Bricolage
"Bricolage" is definitely a novel that sticks with you, even after you've put it down. It's a dark, complex story that pulls you into its world with a compelling, if sometimes frustrating, narrative. I found myself deeply invested in the characters, despite their flaws, and eager to see where their journey would lead.
First Impressions
Initially, I was captivated by the dynamic between the MC and ML. The MC's personality is immediately endearing, and I was intrigued by the ML's "does whatever he pleases" attitude. However, this quickly evolves into a more complicated relationship. The ML's actions are often questionable, blurring the lines between devotion and possessiveness. It's the kind of relationship that makes you want to simultaneously root for them and shake them both.
What Works Well
The world-building is intriguing, and the plot keeps you guessing. The slow reveal of the ML's motivations and backstory is particularly well-done. Just when you think you've pegged him as a typical "scumbag ML," the story throws a curveball, offering a glimpse into the complexities of his character. This makes the story far more interesting than a simple "bad boy gets redeemed" trope. I also appreciated that the translation is well done, which always makes the reading experience much smoother.
Areas of Concern
The MC can be frustratingly passive at times. His willingness to accept abuse and his failure to communicate effectively can be hard to watch. However, as the story progresses, it becomes clear that his actions are a reflection of his circumstances, and his eventual growth is all the more rewarding because of it.

Final Verdict
"Bricolage" isn't a light read, but it's a worthwhile one. If you're looking for a dark, melodramatic story with complex characters and a unique plot, this might be right up your alley. Just be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions and a protagonist who will test your patience. I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It's not perfect, but it's definitely memorable.
