sadslime's manga / #Scary face(3)

Yutaro lost his job and home due to his scary face, and he's on his way to get a new job through a friend. But the person he meets instead is Mizushima, a man who looks even scarier than Yutaro, who takes him to a hotel and proceeds to have sex, which Yutaro goes along with thinking Mizushima is a yakuza member. Turns out, Mizushima was there for a hookup with a surprisingly similar name, and he's just a flower shop owner. Still, Yutaro can't get Mizushima out of his head, so he tracks down his flower shop and ends up getting a job there and living there as well. This situation is all kinds of awkward, and it doesn't help that Yutaro is still totally horny for Mizushima after their first time. The story is interesting, but I don't like Yutaro as the male lead that much. Trigger warning: dubcon

Arata is a college student working as a "big brother for rent," but when he gets his first male client, he meets the scary-looking Junta who just wants to be patted on the head. Arata is quickly won over, and they even end up getting turned on and getting physical with each other, then continue to meet and build their relationship. But it's hard to go from a paid relationship to real lovers, and meanwhile Junta is a high school delinquent who's worried about getting others involved with his fights, so the couple have major obstacles to overcome to be together. Cute enough, if a little cliche. Trigger warning: statutory rape?, violence, abduction.
