sadslime's manga / #Roommates(38)

Shino is a regular salaryman until his high school friend Mio asks to crash with him. Shino is a little surprised at how naturally the two of them fall back into their old friendship, but he hears rumors that Mio has changed and the reason he needs a place to crash is because he cheated on his fiance with a man. Shino doesn't let it get to him and gets Mio a job, but when he starts to see Mio getting a little too close to one of their superiors, Shino realizes he can't let Mio go. I felt like the emotions of their friendship were depicted well. Otherwise, the story didn't stand out to me but it was good enough for a read. Trigger warnings: coercion, voyuerism.

Aoi never thought about their relationship that way, but their gay neighbors are here to help them figure all this out. Very cute and sweet. Trigger warnings: forced outing, somnophilia (in a relationship).

Kikuma(S) is a delinquent, but it turns out the reason why is his unfulfilled sub nature. Kikuma isn't sure he buys that, but when he's forced to room with the dorm head, Takasumi(D), Takasumi puts down some rules he finds he can't help but follow. The beginning of their relationship is questionable, but it's very cute by the end. Trigger warnings: noncon, S&M, strangulation.

Nishina Zen is an ordinary man who wandered into another world one day where everyone has animal ears. He got into an altercation and was saved by Alivian, a member of a government bureau who takes him in and explains this world. But while they're talking, Zen reacts to one of Al's words as if it were a "command," leading to the realization that Zen is a sub. He demands that Al (dom) take care of him, and they end up living together, much to Al's surprise, as his glare is usually too much for even neutrals, but Zen doesn't seem to mind at all. In fact, "playing" with Zen seems to help manage his glare so others are effected less as well. It all seems too good to be true, and Al feels guilty for using Zen, while Zen is starting to feel romantic feelings for Al that Al seems unprepared to accept. No trigger warnings.
