ニコソン

To add to my previous comment, I feel like the way to describe the uke is more like someone who has a hard time showing his affection/love (could be due to various reasons: simply their personality, they’re not used to it, find it awkward) this is something I can relate to pretty well. There are just some people who aren’t very good at expressing their love/romance. And yet I find it even cuter because though he’s bad at it, it’s clear the uke does really love the seme. He fucking tailed the seme, called the police on him and started a fire just to try to make him stay. And he also cried on 2 seperate occasions when the seme left for just a few days (because he thought the seme was going to dissappear). He also does some things more unconsciously like brushing up against the seme. So yeah guys he’s definitely in love. He just isn’t the “romantic” type that we may be so accustomed to seeing in romance mangas. But idk, I can relate a lot to this feeling

I personally don’t understand how people don’t feel their chemistry or thing their chemistry is ‘flat’. I think it’s very unique and cute. The uke is definitely into the seme. He’s always worried about the seme leaving and he even made a genuine attempt to keep the seme with him by getting him arrested. Being timid about sex and skinship is probably due to him not being used to being in a relationship, as well as various factors in his past (bullying). This manga has more of a “show, don’t tell” type of storytelling where you really have to just take your time and feel out the characters. Admittedly, it is a bit fast paced so you can’t just read what the characters are saying at face value. But personally, I think the characters have a lot of character. I don’t want people mistaking the uke’s more timid/tsundere personality as ‘flat’ because it’s definitely not.
