I really love this story and the characters, but their first time feels so weird and out of place. I mean the story progression is so nice up until ch.9, good pace, feels natural, but then *BAM*, səx, and the fact that is even Aoi's first time with a man, makes it feel even more rushed and weird.
I wish the author had used a little more slow burn here, making them warm up to one another, a touch of sexual tension, before getting physical... Welp I guess. It still remains one of my favourite classic yaoi as of late.
I still don't understand how this (especially JK) is going absolutely nowhere.
