giantwoman's manga / #fantastic author(3)

mostly smut, but the plot is satisfying. a young man makes his living as a pickpocket (top) and gets caught by an older ex-cop (bottom) who now works at a bookstore. rather than turning him in, the man offers him the opportunity to redeem himself by working a respectable job at the bookstore. a little bit angsty: the ex-cop takes a leave of absence bc he witnesses the death of his partner. both characters very muscular <3. the art is very beautiful. this artist has a knack for fine line work. top is really pretty when he cries. the ending is sweet/wholesome.

such a cheeky short story about a handsome man named wang taeja who lives with no shortage of women. he's struggles to find memorable women he's attracted to until he stumbles across an older woman at a bar who he's completely enamoured with. this "older woman" however is actually a pretty man who frequents the cafe his sister works at and is the object of her affections. the gag is that the man he's so enamoured with actually had a long time crush on him in high school and intentionally sought him out. the smut is really pretty. i love fem top x muscle bottoms. taeja looks really pretty when he cries.
