Ao is so precious :") I love this story so much, it's just so sweet!!! I love that they both have insecurities and doubts but they face each other through it, even if everything is screaming to run away or hide. I can relate to both of them, but especially Ao and how he fears coming to hate something he loves/enjoys so he distances himself. It's such a counterintuitive thing, but I guess in some ways losing something you love feels better than hating it? I love how upfront Midori is and how he acknowledges his wrongdoings and wants to improve!
Also Yoshida is such a wonderful friend I love that he sees right through them. And when he calls Midori out for saying homophobic things in such a gentle way. He knows Midori doesn't mean it, and he knows it comes from an internalized place of fear.
So short but so good and sweet!!! Love
