25.12.2020 In chapter 2 there’s this ”old historical vibe” going on, and it features a young adult man being abused in his uncle’s household, and his gardener poisoning the unvle to spare him from it. But the rest of the stories were pretty good yaoi ”fluffy”, with everything from tsundere ukes to puppy semes and megane.

14.2.2021 These stories all have bothersome elements in them, and all of them are connected to the theme of ”not being true to yourself” and ”needing someone else to get it right/out”. First story is about a gay roommate who falls for his straight roommate, but because that person’s PE and lots of other things their beginning is rough. The second story is about an art student that wished to be loved, but got a bit shewed by being sexually attracted towards a substitute body before falling for another art student. Another couple break off and get it on again and again, just because one of them is unsure of themselves. And last, two gay vanilla boys lie towards one another and in the end are able to reconcile because of outside interference.
