In these stories, blindness is not an accident but a cost. Within the logic of the Star Stream, everything requires a probability fee. Doujinshi creators often write scenarios where Dokja sacrifices his eyesight to change a tragic scenario scenario or to shield his companions from a cognitive overload (such as looking directly at an Outer God).

The "Blind" doujinshi subverts this entire framework. It places the main characters in a scenario where sight is either physically stripped away or symbolically sealed by a blindfold. Key narrative aspects of this fan work include:
