(Ch 1-2) Yuuta fell in love with his brother’s friend Souichi years ago during their tutoring sessions, but he’s settled with being sex friends since Souichi’s already in love with Yuuta’s brother. But when Yuuta sees Souichi and his brother together, he can’t take it anymore and finally confronts him. A couple of cute idiots who make for a silly couple. Trigger warning: implied statutory rape. (Ch. 3-4) Yuuta’s long-suffering friend Saitou has been protecting him from shady guys for years, so when Yuuki first gets close to him, he’s sure it’s another weirdo after his friends. But Yuuki won’t be deterred and insists on being his friend, and maybe more. I’m glad to see a really good and protective friend who wasn’t secretly in love, and it’s great that he gets a happy ending. No trigger warnings. (Ch. 5-6) Chef Toyoguchi’s friend Ohshima is so perfect it’s depressing to be around him, but at least Toyoguchi has him beat at cooking! Until it turns out Ohshima can totally cook for himself, but he hid it to get closer to Toyoguchi. This couple didn’t really interest me, besides which Ohshima looks almost identical to the first seme. Still, no big problems with it. No trigger warnings.

Takano is a poor tutor struggling to get results with his taciturn student, Iori, until one day Iori overhears him having money troubles and suddenly demands Takano masturbate in front of him for money. Takano goes through with it out of frustration, only to have Iori start blackmailing him to continue this monetary relationship after each of their tutoring sessions. At first, Takano sees it as bullying, but once he realizes the real feelings behind Iori's actions, how is he going to handle the situation? Trigger warnings: noncon, coercion/blackmail, sex work, statutory rape.

(Ch.1-2) Soga has his hands full tutoring a class of remedial students, especially since pretty boy Keita confesses to him every day. But when he gets fed up and takes it out on Keita, he realizes just how serious Keita was being. Trigger warnings: statutory rape, molestation, sexual harassment. (Ch.3-4) Four years ago, teacher Agi broke up with Kaiya, student at his cram school, at graduation, after which Kaiya ran away from home and disappeared from his life. Now Kaiya is back just as suddenly asking for a place to stay, and Agi can't help but want to be close to him, even though he knows it's for the best they stay broken up. No real trigger warnings, except for Kaiya's insane jealousy towards a baby.

Uzuki is a regular doctor who doesn't want trouble, but when a stray cat leads him to a yakuza bleeding out in an alleyway, he can't ignore it. The next day, the yakuza, Nonami, winds up at Uzuki's hospital looking for his savior, whom he thinks is a woman named Suzuki. But the more time Nonami spends with Uzuki, the more he realizes who he's really reacting to. Interesting and funny dynamic, worth a read. Trigger warnings: violence, attempted rape.
