    Edge of Infinity follows the lives of six queer musicians comprising a fictional hardcore band by the same name, based in the Cypress Hills area of Brooklyn, NY, as they grow from their mid-late teens into young adulthood. They come into contact with a diverse cast of other characters as well, who can additionally be navigated to in the ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ᴅɪʀᴇᴄᴛᴏʀʏ tab. Their story is presented through numerous vignettes, "chapters," and short stories, as well as through digital art, poetry, and biographies. Though they started out as a directionless cast just to draw for fun, their stories have become an intricate personal project that I hope to use to spread awareness of addiction, mental illness, trauma, and LGBT+ issues—as well as to spread a message of hope and to explore not just the messiness and harder aspects, but also the healing power of human connection.

     In art, the members of EoI and their affiliates are sometimes depicted as anthropomorphic animals. This is due to having only begun drawing humans a few years ago and thus combined my comfort zone (furries) with my intention (realist fiction.) In writing and in general, the Edge of Infinity “universe” is a human one. Generally speaking, the only differences between our universe and EoI’s is that eye colors are a little more varied and rent in NYC is not astronomical—it’s not a shapeshifter universe nor one populated by anthropomorphic animals. That is simply a creative quirk only present in the visual art aspect of their stories.

    Though the story has a timeline and chronological narritive, and the stories are arranged in rough chronological order on ᴇᴅɢᴇᴏғɪɴғɪɴɪᴛʏ.ʙᴀɴᴅ, with the non-chronology chosen so that one can read ‘straight down’ through the navigation without too much confusion, there isn’t a truly ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to read through their stories. They’re written out of order and uploaded as they’re finished.
