another great chapter, I honestly like this more than if Mori had totally gotten it 100%. with anything, but especially things that break gender norms, you're going to encounter people who don't get it and misunderstand why you're doing it. It's not great that Mori's mind instantly jumped to the gutter, and its arguable he really shouldn't be saying things like this with someone who hasn't made it abundantly clear they're comfortable with it, but he also isn't a bigot or an asshole for looking at it that way. He processed it through a framework he can understand ("I don't want my fetishes getting out the office either!"), respects subaru's privacy, and doesn't treat him any differently for it. It's messy and complicated and not ideal, but sometimes thats all you can ask for. an interesting dynamic for sure.
