Honestly, the part where Mahiru sees random strangers hard at their respective jobs and he ends up feeling depressed because he can't bring himself to do the same, hit me pretty hard.
Whenever I'm having a bad day and I see people passing by as I commute, I always used to feel the same way. I didn't even realize how much I've been spiralling recently until I read this and felt so bad for Mahiru, only to realize I'm basically looking at myself here and I need to be kinder to myself like I'm being kind to a fictional character.
Anyways, came here for the smut (I love down-bad characters like Ogino) but going away with a lighter heart
