Kuroi is awkward as hell, but there's a degree of attentiveness and consideration that comes out of him that would put many a romance manga ML to shame.
He can't control it and it seems very accidental and ill-timed, but the depth that just spills out of him every once in awhile is astoundingly cute and praise-worthy.
But I get it, Haida -- it's not while shucking peas, but I have my own version of "Spiraling Over the Past Whilst Doing Menial Thing". Just means we're human, and we are improving bit by bit.
Thanks for the TL
