hate the blond guy in the beginning, the worst type of boss but I like the detail they go into his character. He had a one night stand with a coworker on accident then they both blackmail each other, one with a consensual recording of what they did and the other with proof that he’s an otaku. It’s nice enough and they’re in their late 20’s

️I wanna die in the good way!!! He’s cross dressing at a store and his classmate recognizes him and uses it as blackmail, but really he’s just helping him go out more in public but pushing him tooo much out of his comfort zone . I love the characters!! They’re flawed, selfish, say things before thinking, can’t say things out of embarrassment, and pushy. makes them feel like realistic asshole teens “I like you because of who you are you”. AHHHHHHHHG
