Kaoru has terrible luck with men, but when he meets his boss's younger brother Shinobu, he's sure he's met the one. Meanwhile, Shinobu is a ninja enthusiast in Japan to work at an amusement park themed after his favorite ninja anime, but he loses his job for saving a kid somewhat dangerously and ends up working at his sister's security agency as a bodyguard instead. Kaoru is a bit strange in how he shows his affection, but as they spend more time together, it starts to grow on Shinobu, and when Kaoru winds up in trouble, Shinobu is determined to find out what he's hiding and save him. Cute story. Trigger warnings: stalking, attempted suicide, extortion.

Isa is a high school teacher troubled by a confession from his student Homura who also happens to be the younger brother of his one and only ex-girlfriend, who he dated until he realized he was gay. He's sure Homura knows and is just trying to tease him, but it turns out Homura's repeated invitations to "play" with him are just the only way he knows how to ask for Isa's affection. Not my favorite couple, but it's fine for what it is. Also includes a oneshot of Yuuji and Manabe, childhood friends who were reunited as a ramen deliveryboy and a policeman, but Yuuji worries that his pure-hearted friend will be disappointed when he realizes he's not the hero Manabe thought he was anymore. Trigger warning: dubcon, statutory rape(?)

Tatsuki decides to get a power trip by forcing a loser from school to give him a bj, only to have everything flipped on him. Everything Tatsuki knew is wrong, and Masuki, a stalker and a psychopath, had Tatsuki right where he wanted him the whole time. They're a really dysfunctional couple, but Masuki is well-written as a believable sociopath who is so disconnected from his own emotion, it makes it interesting. Trigger warnings: noncon, stalking, blackmail.

Shin was befriended and saved by the cop Seiji during his delinquent youth, which inspired not only his career path, but his long held first love, which he finally gets to pursue after being assigned as an officer in his hometown! But Seiji quit to run his family store and doesn’t know how Shin feels…Tbh, I prefer short stories so I only read the first 5 chapters and it hits a good conclusion, but I liked what I saw. Trigger warning: blood/violence

Touhou is teacher known for his demonic sternness, so he really wants to keep it under wraps that at night he hires male prostitutes to accompany him.

But once the night is over, Touhou starts to worry about his former student and what led him to this lifestyle, so he calls Miyamoto again, leading them to begin meeting regularly. But Miyamoto, who used to hate Touhou for his sternness, has found that his feelings are changing. Trigger warnings: sex work, S&M.

Hiro Ayato is on the streets with no one to take care of him when he runs into Narazaki Chitose, the owner of a Western confectionary shop who takes Ayato home, employs him, and declares him his "dog." Ayato doesn't much like being treated like a dog, but he comes to really like Chitose, to the point that he wants to impress him and make him see him as more than just a dog. I like Chitose's character, especially how he seems very flippant, but really he gets embarrassed easily. No trigger warnings.

Riku's father was a teacher before he suddenly died in a car accident. Then a former student of Riku's father, Nagi, appeared and offered to become Riku's guardian. Now Riku lives with the strict Nagi, who is also his teacher, and tries to flirt with him every day. But when he realizes the extent of Nagi's feelings for his father, will it change things? Trigger warnings: statutory rape, sex work by a minor.

Godai is an older, gay, art dealer who offers to show some of the young artist Mizuki's work, but Mizuki offers to sell him even more than that and suggests Godai buy him for sex. Godai can't resist and the two begin a physical relationship, but when Mizuki's work starts to sell, Godai loses confidence that they can be in the same world. I like Godai's character design, but their actual romance felt lukewarm to me. Trigger warning: sex work.
