Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Collar(2)

I totally loved this story. Jooin, the puppy like seme and May, the cat like uke were perfectly imperfect and made for each other. May starts the story as a homeless, promiscuous man who is looking for love in all the wrong men. What he needed was the obsessive stalker and kidnapper, Jooin to collar him and keep him safe and loved. There are plenty of commenters that hated the things Jooin did to get May, but I absolutely loved how the story unfolded around this damaged pair of men, and if Jooin had been Mr Perfect Nice Guy (like the bar owner) he would not have been right for May. Thanks to the author for this non trope story, for strong yet vulnerable characters and for that perfect touch of crazy. Thanks to the artist for such beautiful work, this is going right to my favourites!

A polyamorous Omegaverse story with identical twins. It’s an ambitious plot and overall was well done. Owing a large sum of money for his ex boyfriends debt, Towa (omega) is debating having to prostitute himself when he is approached to have a threesome for a considerable sum. Tempted by the beautiful guy who asked and the money, Towa accepts and ends up becoming the pet to the twins Seiji (alpha) and Aiji (omega). Over time Towa starts to notice the differences in the twins and uncover their history. While initially confused by the incestuous relationship between Seiji and Aiji, Towa is non judgmental. He can see the obvious love they share and the warmth of a protective family that the twins increasingly widen to include their new pet. Issues hanging from the past need to be faced before these three become happily committed to each other, but through it all Towa turns out to be the rock that the twins needed. It was confusing at first to tell the twins apart which made it a little tricky to follow what was happening, but as Towa was also confused I was able to empathise with him. Once he was able to tell them apart then following the intricacies of their relationship was much easier. Overall, it was a good story but I didn’t like some parts. I did like the feeling of family and love and trust between the three at the end, and I would read it again because it seems the sort of story to be even better second time around..
