Black and white and grey

Yoneda-sensei has been doing the last so many cover pages with this theme of light and dark and
of Yashiro and Doumeki understanding each other. Doumeki's tattoo shows he's delved deeper into the dark side of the yakuza, while Yashiro has been more like a civilian, on the light side, when before it was the reverse. Yashiro has slowly become more soft and in touch with his feelings while Doumeki has hardened himself as he's matured - again the opposite of the past. I say that figuratively but also literally! Doumeki used to be the impotent one and now Yashiro is. But it's only with each other they can be satisfied.
They're both slowly becoming grey, meeting in the middle. But Yashiro is still hesitant to admit he's changed and meet Doumeki in the middle. He keeps wanting them to be opposites, black and white only, even if they switch places. But they haven't just switched places, the very nature of their relationship has completely CHANGED. They've BOTH changed as people. Doumeki was a little stubborn to say he's changed, but he knows he has. Now he's waiting in the middle for Yashiro, and he's kinda pushing him to realize that and come be with him.

Man~ I love this story sooo much I'm hoping soon this shit with the Okuyama-gumi can finish up and then Doumeki can be with Yashiro finally since the pace of their relationship lines up with the revelations about this conflict
