— TEMPLATES

Steal a shape.

Six blueprints with the steps already sketched in. They're starting points, not scripts — swap a place, change a clue, cut a step. The bones are done; you bring the people.

§ 01 — BLUEPRINTS

Six to start from.

Each one's a real sequence. Copy it, then make it unrecognisably yours.
