Keita is gay, and his type is straight guys, which always ends with him crying in the arms of his best friend since high school, Ryujiro, who also happens to be Keita's longtime unrequited love. Even though Ryujiro is straight, he'll sleep with Keita whenever Keita says he's lonely after a breakup, so Keita can't help but take advantage of it. Still, he knows he needs to find a new love. But it turns out Ryujiro has a few secrets of his own that could change everything between them. Maybe the ultimate case of failure to communicate. I really enjoy reading both sides of this one. No trigger warnings.

Ijiwaru Shujin no Mitsugi ni Torokeru

Ongoing | Nanase oume | 2022 released

Yuito and Kazuomi are childhood friends from high school, but when Yuito's family loses everything and he's about to drop out of college, Kazuomi appears and says he bought the family's debt, and Yuito can work it off with him. That's when he learns that all the odd things about Kazuomi he had noticed before were actually caused by his family's intense pheromone powers that draw people to them, and as a result, he has to have sex multiple times a day to keep them under control, but his pheromones don't affect Yuito, allowing him to work alongside him. But when Kazuomi's pheromones affect Yuito for the first time, rather than quitting, he asks to be assinged as Kazuomi's personal "reliever," to have sex with him multiple times a day. But even as their bodies are closer than ever, Kazuomi can see the happy relationship they once had as friends slipping further and further away. I think the pheromone powers are weird and Kazuomi is not a great character, but the smut is decent. Trigger warnings: manipulation(pheromone powers), rape.

Between Love, Hate and Affection

Complete | Bucci | 2000 released

Risbel lost his spot as the top student in the knight's college to his junior, Kendon, and he wants revenge, so he summons a demon to do it. Turns out, being a half-demon himself, Risbel actually knows the demon he summons, incubus Rovernia, who agrees to appear in Kendon's dreams to torment him in exchange for Risbel's energy (through sex). But as Rovernia helps Risbel carry out his revenge, we slowly learn that things weren't always so negative between Risbel and Kendall, and they're both still carrying the weight of their feelings and misunderstandings. Mostly smut, but the story was interesting and could have been even better if given more time. Trigger warnings: dubcon, revenge.

Ayumu and Kosuke work together at an airline, Ayumu in the control room, and Kosuke at the controls of a plane.

But when a drunken Ayumu mistakes Kosuke for his boyfriend and hugs him and says he's lonely, Kosuke starts to realize that he actually wants to be the one to take care of Ayumu. I think these two are really cute and the author does a great job with pacing. Trigger warning: mention of cheating.

Shame♡Application

Complete | fujoking | 2000 released

Yeong and Nohae have been friends since high school, and now they live together as Yeong works as the model Nohae's manager/gopher. One day they download a suspicious app that forces them to obey lewd orders or face real world consequences which completely changes their relationship. The plot is nothing amazing, but the drawings are well done and the characters are fun. They have some really sweet scenes together, though I do think it ends up having a bit of unnecessary filler.
