The Windownesian series features the adventures of the university student Jonathan Wills with his friends Meander, Athena, Zedekiah, as well as his roommates Alex the AI and Bobby the Alien. Each chapter centres around one topic, recording our characters experiencing it, and discussing it.

Cyborg combines both AI and humans. In 2027, Dr Albert Epoch created the Living AI, which interlaces a computer brain with an existing human body. In the commencing chapter of The Windownesian, Jonathan meets his first roommate, discovers what is so special about him, and helps him to be human.

Do you have weird roommates? We all do. But do yours place strong-smelling vegetables everywhere, turn on the radio 24/7, and worst of all, insist to keep the windows shut? Have you ever wondered what if their foreign behaviors are due to them belonging to another world? That is the roommate Jonathan going to meet in Chapter 2.

It is extraterrestrial. It gives whatever it receives. Give it a hug; it grows arms to hug you back. Shoot it, it returns bullets. It is the Chug-a-lug, the center of Chapter 3, which descends onto Victoria Harbor. And behold, it has something to do with our alien roommate.

Somewhere in rural Yuen Long stands a tree, grown and stuck in a house, meanwhile reaching out. Ain’t some of us this tree ourselves? Facing the dilemma of leaving or staying. Rooted are also two of Jonathan’s peers in Chapter 4. Unlike the tree, they are leaving.

“Have you ever sat down and listened to our stories and struggles?” Says the social movement leader Rona Chan, Zedekiah’s sister who is sick of our world and strives to change for the better. In Chapter 5, she proves whether or not, freedom is bulletproof.

“Women are bound by our biology, and society further enhances the constraint.” That is Athena’s take on Feminism, alongside the views of many other characters in this Chapter. This Chapter 6 is where, “men and women switch bodies for men to live as females too”.
