Well, considering the original context that Toshio used to be a sex cyborg and was treated like an object to be passed around from person to person and that Shindou saved him from that situation and refuses to do that to him and now takes care of him, I would say yeah this story is pretty cute in comparison to the origins. Plus, they're not in a relationship, Toshio is just really affectionate but Shindou doesn't see him romantically

Bruh it looks like a father and his son. The story seems cute based on the comments but this ruin everything
