Dark Past BaggagesTrauma in ◥✤BL✤◤

[Mostly contains drama ranging from light to heavy.]

Trauma, being a rape victim,  physical abuse. COPING plus situations where seme/uke discovers their dark secret. 
Is the partner ready to take on the responsibility?

PS: (I have preference for healing love, Let's avoid rape fetishizing this time, even if just for this list.)

I'd say this is a masterpiece that I will read again and again. I wish sensei at least has shown even one omake of their everyday life together. It's a dark psychological story about a broken man who hides his insanity through music. A pediatrician met the conductor's son who is the same age as his son and got fond of him. Timeskip to the present and the doctor is now a hollow man who fiercely longs for his family who died in an accident. The two met again After 10 yrs

▸ then this dumb, silly guy came spouting about being his ideal is making it hard. but at the same time, this seme has the biggest of heart enough to heal and reassure him.
beautifully slow-paced and matured w/o being physical.
