i remember nothing
How Far Is My Dream Allowed?
Corporate slave x friendly policeman. Uke often cant distinguish btwn dreams and realities and thinks he killed someone and tries to turn himself in. The friendly police officer calms him down and they start to get to know each other and fall in love. 7/10
12 Zodiac Boys
Collection of short stories, all pretty cute but kinda unsatisfying to me. Also didnt really feel like the zodiac part was relevant most of the time but tbh I know nothing about astrology so im assuming all these characters were their astrology stereotypes. Idk. 5/10
Orokamono Wangeru Naito
Upset cuz his boyfriend stole all his money and abandoned him, uke recklessly climbed up a mountain, almost dies, and has to be saved by a gruff policeman. They spend one steamy night together and the uke falls in love. policeman seme has some emotional trauma having lost his best friend to a river rescue and it takes a while for him to open up. Is good. Solid 7 or 8/10 name on MAL is Orokamono Wangel Night (lmao "wangel")
Psychedelia
Police man's senpai gets shot and shows up at his house as a wandering spirit. The art is so unique its refreshing af. The story spends the entire time just letting the two men talk, reflect, and panic internally (on the seme's part) until the confession and subsequent get together. I wasnt THAT into the story or even the characters just bc personal preference, but the art and storytelling is so good... Totally missed the COVID setting bit cuz Japan wears masks all the time anyway. ^_^; Personally a 6/10 but objectively like an 8/10.
Stay Goodboy
pwp but honestly.... their relationship was cute and the smut 10/10 7/10
