#bsd chapter 78.5

[rosegardenrequiem]

i’ve been having mushipoe brainrot for the past few days so please let me present something for your shipping consideration.

[CHAPTER 78.5 SPOILERS]

as you manga readers know, mushitarou is currently staying at poe’s mansion for protection. and we know how strangely excited poe is to be hosting him.

but people are overlooking just how kindly poe is treating him and how it’s the warmest we’ve ever seen any character treat mushitarou.

poe is saving his life rn. all he needed to do was host him and that would’ve been enough. but poe was concerned about keeping him entertained. he encouraged mushi to engage in a personal interest to keep his spirits up :)

and later, we see him checking in on mushitarou. i imagine he heard mushi’s shout from a few panels prior and came to check on him.

and look how satisfied he is when he sees mushitarou finally writing. from what he’s thinking in these panels, we can tell that he wasn’t just concerned with entertaining mushi. he wanted to give him an emotional outlet, as well. poe is aware of mushi’s past, that we can assume. he wants to help him cope with his grief. he wants to help him heal <3

if that wasn’t sweet enough, i’ve picked up on a little detail that most probably haven’t. yes, this means that i’ve skimmed this section of the manga over and over again..

we can see here that mushi falls asleep without any blankets

but after he wakes up, we explicitly see that he has one on.

poe tucked him in while he was sleeping.
