it's a different take for a BL, but that girl was really nice; her scenes were very brief but she came off as considerate and not pushy, she also had the integrity to be straightforward and ask directly what her chances are with the seme when they already spent a good amount of time with each other, and she still gracefully accepted it when she ultimately got turned down. If only the seme was not obsessed with the uke (and if he's at least bi), it's so easy to fall in love with her instead.
Uke in this work is meh, another one of those that some readers praise for being complex and relatable when all they are is just relatable to ya'll toxic ass-- if you find this trait realistic please do some introspection on yourself, this is just bleak and toxic af. Yes, he acknowledges his insecurity and he's reflective but he can't even communicate it properly and then just lashes out on the seme; it's not like it's the guy's fault that people simply like his work better wtf? this trait might work for a teenager, but for a grown ass adult? nah. Also he knows that the guy's in love with him and just decided to go with his advances on a whim even when he's not even sure of his feelings yet, and then had the audacity to say he hates him and runs away lol. I'll give a leeway that maybe it didn't work for me coz the translation's not the best, but out of all this author's works, this is surely one of the weakest by far.
