To be fair, a reader doesn't expect the story they love to suddenly become their reality one day.
.. Though the protagonist may have some perks and skills available to them given his status, the reader is starting off on a completely blank slate. He's a supporting side character.
[ Yes, his role is different to Yoo Joonghyuk's, but there's something else about the reader's. Glances back to the other man, a smile lingering on his lips. ] In my world, you are a story as well, Mr. Herlock Sholmes.
Hm? "Become their reality"? My, my, Mr. Dokja. You truly are Alice in Wonderland in the flesh.
[Falling into another world...]
[also wait i just realized alice in wonderland is a classic isekai. nice]
Hahaha. [And his eyes crinkle in amusement at that.] So I have heard. I'm not too surprised. Being a Constellation, a figure like a god...well, I can't say the thought of it wouldn't be fun, in its own way.
Any Incarnation is capable of becoming a Constellation. Just as any story, whether it be a myth or history- everyone has the potential to become a Constellation with enough stories and qualifications.
[ His head tilts. ] Though I know the best path, some ideal results for scenarios... that does not make me "god." The Star Stream is what controls the scenarios inevitably, even if I help guide my companions and me through them- that doesn't necessarily mean we have the ways to clear it if we aren't prepared enough.
[ Another smile. ] A Constellation is still capable of being killed. I am not immortal.
Well, of course. I assumed as much based on Mr. Joonghyuk's listed skills. [He smiles.] So what do you do, as a Constellation, then? You're just a sort of mentor?
Constellations have their own scenarios to complete and go through, but some entertain themselves by watching Incarnations. Whether it be watching Incarnations struggle, suffering through the scenarios, or rooting them on... [ Yeah, he can tell from the tone of his voice he greatly dislikes them. ]
They're capable of taking on an Incarnation like a Mentor of sorts yes, allowing them to help supply their growth by passing on a Stigma- which is an ability, and other rewards. [ ... ] I have an Incarnation back home that is a companion journeying with Yoo Joonghyuk and I.
..It was a necessary path to take to get where I am back home, so I can't say I've considered the idea of being happy as one or not. It means I'm stronger so I can't say I'm unhappy about it.

[ big braining over here. ]
You think so? [ Oh, Dokja looks amused at that. ] Coming from a Constellation like myself, in a way it might be.
[ Yeah. ]
no subject
[Ohhhh?]
So how does a reader become a Constellation? Since you know everything that happens, does this make you "god"?

[Hm. Doesn't like the sound of that.]
But Mr. Joonghyuk, he's not an Incarnation? Or is he?
no subject
[ Constellations really are an audience, yeah. Awful. ]
Yoo Joonghuyk is an Incarnation. Everyone starts off as one when the Scenarios start, and though he's incredibly strong- he is not a Constellation.
