Great Story

I love the fact that despite the typical BL premise, this story is anything but typical. There's no laundry list of lame, overused BL tropes here (getting sick from the rain, etc), and the story is firmly grounded in reality instead of melodrama-BL-crazyworld. For instance, when the characters' situation overflows, the two actually just sit down and talk about it rather than (as I expected) a melodramatic chase through the streets followed by passionate bellowing at each other while onlookers stand around looking horrified.

I also love that the uke is characterized as a seme in both personality and appearance. Like, in any other story, Tomoaki would be the seme. I also like that the seme Naoki was totally cool with switching, even if it turned out the uke wasn't interested.

    Did I miss that somewhere?? When did the matter of Naoki being on bottom come up in the story?!

    Oh wait, was it the bath scene? I thought they were just talking about tomo actually being interested in taking a bath together but never asking. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
