Aaah, my heart. This chapter just added so much more depth to Rei. Didn’t expect the serious chapter at all, but absolutely loved it. It’s probably my favorite so far. Why must you hurt me?
This chapter is amazing. Hits especially hard because of the tone-shift; turns out every single time she jokingly flirted with Kei was a massive coping mechanism.
Yeah, now that i think about it, there was always something off about those jokes, they always felt kinda too forced, and the reaction was just too passive even for jokes.
While it´s likely both of them are afraid of the same thing, maybe it would be intersting if this had somewhat of a sour ending.
