Whisky... every day? If he developed 10+ mental illnesses after all those deaths, I wouldn't even be surprised
It's a finished manga of the side character's love story, the main love story is between a blond and red hair guy. They're all in high school but the protagonist ends up having a romance with an older guy. His name is Sakura (or Sakurai?) and basically meets his future lover when he went to a bar, pretended to be an adult and tried to get drunk but was given juice instead. The lead is his barista. Then he fell asleep prob, the barista had to bring him to his own home because he wouldn't tell him his address. Their romance progresses with the protagonist making excuse to go back to the lead's house by purposely leaving something at his house, at the end, the lead just gives him a key and told him to stop making excuses. They did not fxck once.
When protagonist graduated, he entered an art academy and is basically an art student. Tbh I don't remember when they dated but they did go to a trip to Osaka or something where protagonist lost the house key and broke down, confessed or some shit to the lead.
The protagonist has basic black hair, I wouldn't even say a twink but shorter yes. The lead has blonde hair and stubbles.
If you know the name of the manga, please let me know, I'm trying to complete my manga list and just remembered that that's one of my fav too :(((
Mc is a detective. One day he received a letter addressed to his house, requesting him to investigate the disappearance of an old priest in a small town. He goes to the church and met a young man priest who turns out to be a vampire and tried to drink his blood. Reason a human could beat up the vampire is long story short, mc is nearly awakened and gained superhuman strength. Wasn't that impressive since he was not trained tho, he's lucky the vampire was starving and weak (Old priest used to supply blood packets to him but bc she disappeared, he couldn't drink blood and starved. Also why he wants the detective to help look for her.)
So the vampire told him abt this awakening which is based off a demon's ability. And to get that ability, they have to make a contract w that devil, in return that they suck your soul till you die. Mc made a contract w a logic demon when he was a kid - now he awakened w the power to locate things (it's funny at first i swear lmao). Oh and yea, he finna die soon if he doesn't break the contract. He never knew until the young priest told him ofc (or not young, he was hundreds years old). There's also more awakeners as you read further into the story because now that mc learnt abt the devil contracts, he volunteers to solve the problems of a cult group forcing people into making contracts w the devils (related to disappearance of the old priest and his past).
PS. there's kinda like a tool sealing that contract and it's a doll or plush, or cute keychain - different for each of the awakeners. You just have to break them to release yourself from the devil (but still having their abilities, except you won't die anymore). Mc had a crocodile keychain as the contract tool and broke it, the vampire helped him with training his own ability and strength.
/ the potential bl part is bc i think i found it from the sho ai tags. but the two did acted like married couples earlier into the story, it was so cute. OH AND THERES A POTENTIAL LESBIAN COUPLE LATER WHICH WAS EVEN CUTERRR AHXUWNSG /
PLS tell me the title. My dumbass seriously just left it on tab and the tab group disappeared so now I gotta find it.
mc: tall slim muscular, black hair (green eyes when he uses his power)
ml: tall slim, blonde hair and blue eyes (red when he uses his vampire ability)

Reading a BL with this much fem characters and all of them have personalities... I feel like an abused victorian child suddenly being showed what love is. I was wondering why it feels so different. That's why it feels different. I can't predict what's going to happen next at all. I think I know what the ending will be anyways but damn, I can't stop reading it. When was the last time a BL was this unpredictable and not in a nonsense way? I thought I've returned to a time when I first discovered BL. Like when I thought the professor was gonna be one of the lead like how it usually goes, cliche. But then that boy showed up and I was so surprised by that. Oh so it's not like that, I thought. Man. This brings back how the popular BLs used to be years ago (corny ahh talk), none of those fast-paced, cliche with poorly written characters and 0 female characters like authors just straight up hate them.
I'm not gonna go all my way to say it's the best I've read but it is undeniably written with thoughts and care. Also, protagonist has a rare appearance; not a twink nor macho black haired character (those are becoming a trend). It's like a breath of fresh air, I mean how many protagonists look like Jooin? Exactly. Wah, to be honest, I really love this and is curious to read what others think but I don't want to accidentally spoil myself the ending since apparently it's a novel adapation. I'll just wait for the ending patiently.
