Impressive for a smut yaoi omg. This was a good one. Unlike other “sex friends to lovers” tropes, this one had a good transition that properly portrayed the uke’s insecurities (without meaningless running away and dumb assumptions.) the uke’s feelings were understandable, seeing how it started off in a non-serious relationship, ofc he’d have his own doubts that it could turn into something real. It’s understandable that he didn’t want to get his hopes too high for fear of getting his feelings hurt. But once the seme fell for him, I’m glad he accepted his feelings, instead of running away and not believing the seme’s confession (like the stupid uke’s do in majority of this trope, denying the person’s feelings and saying it must be his imagination, then running away without even listening to reason).
Anyways, I also like that seme. He tried not to give the uke false hope, and also didn’t act like an asshole The whole way through. He even accepted his own feelings for the uke without too much resistance and denial. He treats uke gently, is patient with him, understands his insecurities, and without getting irritated or walking on eggshells, reassured him that yes, he does love him, and not to worry. This is the type of seme all asshole semes should look at and follow his example. Such amazing boyfriend material. We love a seme who is sweet, caring, patient, and assures his uke.
Overall, quite an amazing story, despite being filled with smut. It even got me thinking that the smut scenes were meaningful, and I don’t usually think that with smut scenes (I usually get dead fish eyes and wonder when it’s going to end. Very rarely do I like the sex scenes).
Oh yeah. Also, the uke is so cute. Like the seme said in the last chapter, how could u not love such a cute guy?
