Story :  "I want you, Nakajo!" Nakajo works at a live music club; Kiuchi is a frequenter. Following a quick exchange of words, the two of them found themselves living together.
Kiuchi said he was just looking for a place to rest his head for a short while; after all, he had just broken up with his girlfriend and had to move out of their shared apartment. What's more, Kiuchi says he can't fall asleep without the heat of another person's body beside him. Nakajo swiftly rejects Kiuchi's request, revealing that he's gay. However, what will Nakajo do when Kiuchi responds with, "That works for me!"...?

    So melancholic
    This review contains spoilers. etsuko knows how to tug on my heartstrings. the development, pacing, and eventual romance are so well-done. not to mention how real it is when dealing with mental health issues but more than anything i love the conversation they had in the bed where kiuji admits to nakajo that he wants to die and that he’s helped him more than anyone in the world. love them a lot :( i hope this gets licensed in print

    Been going absolutely insane over the first 4 chap
    This review contains spoilers. Such good development, i feel like it's one of those works that tou can't stop reading, to be honest, I wasn't familiar with the author's past work, and yet here I am, extremely invested in the developing relationship between these two.

    Even though I'm not a huge fan of the whole playboy trope, I can't help but accept that this manga handles it in such an amazing way you just can't help but empathize.

    deffo one of my faves as of now

Bittersweet Situationship
The MC works at a live music club, one of the regulars suddenly needs a place to crash, and... the rest is history? They find comfort in each other, both physical and emotional, but they keep treading the line between friends and lovers without landing on either side. What does it mean to accept someone just the way they are...? This slow-paced comic hones in on the quiet, mundane moments in life to craft a poignant and thought-provoking story.
