I'm curious about that too? It seems more like he's ready to do anything as long as he can stay by his brother's side. I think he also got jealous of Koganei for knowing more about his brother than him. Either way, I really wish there was another chapter of this. It was awesome. It could also be that he's the "good" brother to make it easier for his big bro in terms of expectations and stuff :o
I think the little brother DOES like the older brother enough to want to do it, and not just because the older brother wanted to(even if he never would have thought of doing it before finding out it was what the older brother wanted).
For example, he left marks on the older brother but said "sorry" for it, as though it was what he(the younger brother) wanted to do, and not something the older brother had asked him to do
I think that the point she mentions at the end is crucial, the regardless if it is love or not, I am your lover thing. and of course the despair and the conflict, so delicious. the older raised to love the younger as brother and only as brother, doesn't want to obstrict the younger's future with his desires and feelings, trying to vent his frustration and punishing himself by constantly fighting, but still his gaze follows the little one everywhere. I think that is the reason he is on the rooftop. the younger, confused by the change in the older, fearing the hatred, jealousy ripping through him as he thinks koganei kisses his brother, not daring to overstepping the brotherly bond hoping to be with him forever regardless of his position. and then the revelation. they love each other, but still they can't get over their ingrained guilt. the older because he made the younger stray from the right path and the younger fearing it to be an ellusive dream, marking the other like branding the other with kiss marks to make him his. koganei was crucial, without him, they would have stayed in the state of homeostasis.
Y'know youre good at this (๑•ㅂ•)و✧. I read it again today looking at all the drawings specifically, looking for hints on what the younger bro feels. And im thinking that your theory is more or less onpoint.
The last few pages got to me though, about the "cat". And now my minds in a loop again, but either way. They both love each other a lot, we just dont know if what younger bro feels is the same as older bro ( ̄へ ̄)
okay for fuck knows how many times ive reread this it only came up to me now. Does little bro (seme) actually like "like" older bro (uke). Because older bro kept on saying how his little bro who looks at him like a brother would accept him anyway. So its making me wonder if younger bro is doing this for the sake of his older bro or if he's doing this cause he loves older brother. This might seem like a stupid question but its been on my mind. So any thoughts on the matter would help.
And what are the chances that little bro joined the archery club because he can see older bro at the rooftop?
