ahhhhhhhhh. this was so so SO refreshing. i genuinely felt like it summer here in february while reading this. i loved it more than i can write in words. god, it was so well written. im gonna speak on behalf of both this story, the doujinshin and the sequel here. such a wonderful read. probably the most healthy relationships ive ever read. even when i thought there might be a misunderstanding (bc there usually always is) there wasnt! even the so-called rivals were super sweet and well-meaning! there wasnt a single obstacle between them and thats how it should always be. it was just pure, healthy, wonderful fluff. they are so atune with each other and do anything to make the other one happy, even if its just by being completely honest with themselves. it makes me hope that i can find someone to feel this way with. i had butterflies so many times reading this. tbh i wanted some smut so bad by the end of this but i still love the affection between the two. it slightly makes me sad that watoru never really says 'i love you' straight up, but its true that he proves his feelings through his actions time and time again. i cannot wait to reread this one. i wished it would never end while reading too. 10/10.
