Honestly I really get where the ml is coming from, he's really realistic and relatable...that self loathing and internalized homophobia you develop at a young age really sticks with you and can cause you to self sabotage and unintentionally hurt others. It's real, it rough. The amount of reassurance he needed to be able to finally feel like he could open up and have some self worth is something you don't ever really find in real life..the MC is actually not that realistic at all, lol, people usually do just give up on you. I think it's a really sweet story overall... I enjoyed the drama and character development.
Art is beautiful. Very slow pacing. The uke was so frustrating. Hated him for ghosting seme for two years for no good reasons. Seme was annoyingly persistent. They're great when they finally communicate.
