YvonMarie's manga / #Ogeretsu Tanaka(4)

I love that they're both happy together in their respective stories and with their partners but this background story just breaks my heart. I can't even hate the seme nor the uke. But .y heart just broke when the uke said he quit his job. I could feel the frustration he had at that moment. I also felt sorry for the uke who just literally had no idea. I wish they communicated. I wish they could have pulled through. But they didn't. They couldn't. And they moved on. I just wish they saw each other again. Especially for the seme to know that yeah, he's happy as well.

Makes me want to bawl myself to bed

I haven't reread this in sooo long. I was probably still in 8th grade the last time I read this. It's so weird. I remember reading this on another site and then finding it here again just to stash in in my TBR cause I was scared of crying. Weird sht happened and now I'm reading this, crying thinking how sht my birthday is. It's a weird feeling really.

Perhaps it's easy to view the uke as toxic and crazy. The former, I agree. The latter, I disagree. This is the difficulty of being in the same industry and you're both competitive. All the more in their case where one seems to be naturally gifted or is working hard and gets what worked hard for while the other also works his ass off yet doesn't seem to ever be rewarded. When it is rewarded, it seems as though he only ever succeeded because of the other. It's difficult. Though I remember seeing a (also gay) couple say that it's alright since regardless the pay still reaches home. While true, some people.are, again, just very competitive and the issue sometimes isnt really the pay but the ego. Regardless, it is toxic. I think it was right that they took some time apart. Ngl I'm amazed at the seme's patience like bro I could never. I'm glad it worked out for them. For many, it doesn't. Edit: This is some long ass review lmaoo
