Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Tattoos(4)

Fantastic story, loved the beautiful art and the backstory for the main characters. There are some dark themes like rape, child abuse and forced prostitution that are scattered through the story, but there was still something incredibly sweet between Nozomi and Asoda.

3 school friends approaching 30 all start to find someone who loves them. The mechanic and his bosses son was cute, though it would have been better if we could see more mutual loving happening. The tattooist and his landlord was my favourite, there was a lot of love between that pair. The slightly sadistic salaryman and his intern were cute but they felt a long way from being a real couple even at the end of the book. My other favourite was the two tattooists story. So cute, loved their look and style and their romance was adorable.

Completed story Yoon Haneul: Modern woman and a pushover, Yoon finds herself isekaied into a novel she had written 10 years earlier. One full of youthful cliches and tropes that made her cringe, and one where she became the villainess. Aila Mertensia: The villainess who existed in the novel to make the heroine shine. Daughter to a powerful duke, now that Yoon is inhabiting this body she is determined to avoid that bloody ending and enjoy her favourite novels. Only it seems that avoiding her role has placed time in an endless loop. And it seems that she isn’t the only one to notice. Killian: Centuries old and a powerful warlock, Killian had been stuck in a repetitive and irritating day and was determined to destroy the one responsible. Tracing that person led him to Alia. In order to help time move on, he decides to help her become the perfect villainess. I really loved the story. The MCs were wonderfully designed and the plot was enjoyable. The ending was a bit fast perhaps, but it wrapped things up pretty well and was very satisfying as far as the MCs future goes. Based on a light novel

Completed Story CW: Pedophilia, rape, child abuse, murder (not done by either MC to the other) Yuen was abandoned by his parents and taken to an orphanage. His only support was his roommate, 16yo Yan, who became like a kind and protective older brother. Yan nii-chan also cherished Yuen like his younger brother, but one night something happened that changed everything. 10 years later the Yakuza, Aoyagi turned up at the orphanage to take over handling of the remnants of the nearly derelict place known for human trafficking. There he met the last remaining teacher Yuen and his two charges. This story is their relationship and it was beautifully drawn and remarkably sweet, especially given the many dark underlying themes. Sexy, uncensored hot scenes mixed with caring and warm feelings; such a wonderful mix!
