💕 AAAA LOOK AT THEMS 💕

[luimagines]

Omg requests are open!!! Remember to take care of yourself! And 3 requests per person you are so generous!

Anyways how about.... The chain with a stressed out college modern student lmao (maybe they're studying to become a veterinarian, because that's what I'm going to college for this year lol👀)

Remember to take care of yourself and take your time💕💕💞

Oh goodness, this took forever to get to. Um... So how'd your school year go?! Did you start the second year already?

Masterlist

Content under the cut!

"GGAAHHH!!!" You yell into your hands, rubbing them over your face and into your hair, trying to not pull it right out of your scalp.

"....I guess they're dead." Wild shrugs unhelpfully, walking calmly past you.

Sky picks up your fallen book, giving you an amused, if concerned look. "Problem?"

"It's too much stuff." You groan, taking the book back. "You know, when I chose to be a vet tech I didn't think it would consist of overloading my brain until it felt like it was leaking out of my ears."

"What's a vet tech?" Wind hops to your side, peering over your arm to get a better look at your book. He has no idea what it says but there's a cute picture of a dog on the front. The book is also very shiny and colorful. He has no idea what it's about.

"A doctor." You say, deciding to put your text book in your bag. "But for animals."

"Think you can take a look at Epona at some point then?" Twilight asks from somewhere to your left. you can't even look at him, your head hurts.

"I guess?" You rub your temples. "I'm still learning and there's only so much my textbook has on horses. But I can try. I'd need some experience anyway."

Hyrule stops and calmly activates the healing spell on his hands. Your head ache goes away at once.

You turn to him gratefully. "Traveler, I'd kill to have that ability of yours."

He smirks. "It's rather convenient, but I thought doctors were healers. No killing for you."

You stick your tongue out at him. He remains unapologetic.

Time puts a hand on your shoulder. "If you need more experience with horses, you're always free to take a look at our horses at Lon Lon."

"For free?" You deadpan.

He meets you head on. "We only pay the professionals, not the trainees."

You pout harder. "I hate that. I get it. But I hate it."

He chuckles.

Four rolls his shoulders and checks your hip simply because he can. "So what's that book about? Animals?"

"It's my text book." You say, patting your bag where it sits safely tucked away. "It has all the information I would need for my classes and then some." You rub your eyes again. "I swear I'm going t have this entire book memorized before I get home. I had a test on Tuesday for crying out loud."

"It's admirable that you're still studying though." Four smirks at you.

"Studying, the only words that very blatantly describes the acts of students dying." You grumble.

Warrior laughs out loud an smacks your back, nearly sending you careening into the gravel trail face first. "I remember those days. I couldn't wait to get away from the desk and on to the field!"

"Yeah?" You say, relaxing a little more at the common experience. "What for?"

"Knight training of course." He shrugs. "Had to learn the laws like the back of our hands. Fighting came after."

"I remember that." Sky stretches his arms over his head. "Hated it."

"No time like the present." Legend shrugs. "You're on the field now whether you like it or not. Nothing like learning on the job."

Somehow, you don't feel like that bodes well for you. "Remember, I'm studying animals, not people."

"We're not all that different though." He pops his back. Legend looks at you with an unreadable gleam in his eye. "You might want to give a check up to Wolfie too, while you're at it."

You smile. "Dogs I can do. Horses will have to wait a little more."

Twilight throws something at Legend head, but you don't know why.

[lord-overlips]

Do you know what I would love to do to you someday? I would adore, making you beg to be touched, to be ravished. I would make you plead, on your knees, kissing my pedes like the dog you are. Finally, when you can't think of anything more to offer me but your pathetic "pleases", I will place my heel against the back of your throat and push you to kiss the floor.

And you'll stay there for me. Because we both know you want it. Want it so bad now that you're shaking and dripping behind your panel so badly it's rolling down your thighs and forming a puddle. I'll push you down, make you present yourself. And then I'll use the restraints. Lock you down like that so everyone can see how much of a slut you are for me.

And then I think I'll take my time, watching you as I abuse that cute pierced node of yours. I'll make it good, tugging on the piercing and making you drench yourself while I explore your ports to my leisure. I'm in no hurry and I want you to overload again and again.

I want you screaming. Crying. Still begging me to touch you more. Use you more. Cumming just from my hands over and over until it starts to hurt. I'll push you into the redline and then drag you back so I can do it again.

And when you're no more than a weeping, drenched mess upon my floor. Then I'll finally release you, roll you over with my heel, and take your spike for myself. And I'll ride you and use you like the toy you are, milking you dry until you can't possibly overload again and then show you otherwise.

And when I'm finally satisfied, maybe I'll give you that special kind of kiss you like so much. What do you think, my precious pet?

Overlord is at first curious, then... incredibly turned on. He tries to speak, words dying in his intake as he crumbles to the ground and feels his spark swell and array ache with sudden immense charge.

He wants ALL of it. So badly that he can't stand it. A part of him wants to argue that he's not so pathetic but- of frag, he really is. He'd beg for every slagging thing, greedy, eager. Please...

Weren't they mocking him for that just now? He didn't care.

"Please...."

It was too perfect. He'd beg for every second of it and happily thank the mech who ground his face into the dirt, abused him, ruined him. Was this really his sun and stars? This was... was so much more than he would ask for, more than he hoped to be blessed with. It felt like them, familiar but... with a vicious edge he was not accustomed to. Ohhhh he loved it!

Overlord had no hope of keeping his panels shut, panting breathlessly as he knelt, mimicking those words and hoisting his aft up, faceplates pressed down against the floor and gasping at the cool air against his valve as he let that panel slide back. He shut his optics and imagined, shivering, groaning in spark deep pleasure without a single touch to his frame and listening intently to that voice.

It wasn't enough though, the mech following those lurid words, taking his thumb and forefinger and twisting that node piercing, howling in pleasure-pain and forcing his servo to obey until he couldn't take it, coolant tears in his optics and node screaming in agony. He was forced to stop, unable to take any more, reaching back to spread his valve lips in an imagined show of abject submission. He imagined Redstrike watching, optics shuttered as as servo wriggled back to stroke over that abused node, Overlord sobbing and letting his struts give out in time with that voice.

He rolled over, panting breathlessly, one servo on his spike and the other burying itself in his valve, first two then three digits buried in that slick heat as Overlord sobbed through a painful overload, too fast, too intense, the bot tensing and gasping, vents sputtering, Overlord collapsing against the cool floor with a dazed and vacant look on his faceplates.

"Y-yes...." He vented, not even close to finished, frame just charged up and eager now. "Pl-please... please I want it." He gripped his spike again, aching node teased as well, blissful pain and heat making it hard to think.

[icycream24]

Espilver? :>

You're here to ask me the most obvious ones 😭 alright then I'll answer in the most unexpected way ever!

They are my OTP: literally saw them first-hand in game and firmly believed they have chemistry since then. Not influenced by fanart at all bc there was none.

But I don't really dare say they're the best of the OTPs...? Genuinely I think some other pairs (Sonuckles/Knuxouge etc.) has more chemistry and an easier time to figure out how they work.

Espio and Silver supposedly live in different timelines, and Espio didn't even appear in games that often. Their chances of seeing each other is far lower than a lot of others;

They're not as sociable as Sonic or Amy, or any other talkative characters. They can't just meet each other on a whim. We have to think of a valid reason for them to meet in fanfics, with Silver's persistence on his time travel mission and Espio's ninja detective work in mind;

They're kinda too nice with each other, the enemies to lovers troupe wouldn't really fit in their current canon situation, neither does having major rivalries, conflicts, or any kind of tension. Obviously they can still have those, it's just harder to imagine them in these roles compared to others imo.

Ofc, they're still my obvious best of OTP in my brain, but if we're discussing the variety of them being a pair, then they're not higher than other ships.

CUTENESS OVERLOAD: That is true bc I literally ship them as OTP. But actually, I ship them in the angsty way first, did not imagine them with a happy ending due to their roles and burdens. Drew Silver dying in Espio's hands back in 2016, definitely not wholesome & cute haha

Overrated AND underrated at the same time? : Now this is a handful... I didn't imagine Espilver to be a well known ship at all, and certainly did not anticipate ppl actually shipping them even now. As to why this ship got popular, I couldn't help but think it was related with ppl wanting to support unpopular ships as an ally, moreso than actually liking the ship? Ofc, it's definitely not me who can decide what ppl ship them for, I wouldn't care that much as long as the ship gets more love! Actually I do care but I don't wanna gatekeep ppl for being not genuine and I don't wanna know if I'm actually wrong on that so by not dwelling on that I avoided the problems and consequences that might bring to me including those I do not forsee

Still, Espio and Silver, as I've told before, probably don't have as much chemistry to other ppl due to not being in more games tgt. Their compatibility basically flies over ppl's minds and it's unfortunate! So, Espilver is definitely underrated as ppl still hasn't yet be presented to the wonderful comfort and beauty this ship brings 💖

In conclusion, overrated enough to have IDW make a comic about them, since ppl would love it; also underrated enough to have IDW make a comic about them, since so few ppl know them enough to feel repulsed with their interactions.

I WOULD DIE FOR IT OKAY: No one's allowed to talk shit about Espilver/Silvespio except me✨

Ruthless

chapter 2

I woke up in the recovery room where there were a bunch of people outside shouting and cursing.

"God, what happened to me?" "I thought I won," I said, barely opening my eyes.

"Ms. Naveen, you should be lucky that I was here to heal your wounds with my talent." a doctor says, and my eyes opened widely.

"Doctor Nate, what happened to your shirt?" I asked, looking at his abs.

"Oh well, whenever I use my talent, I get overheated sometimes," Nate says shyly, and I just admire him.

Sometimes, meaning it's very unlikely because I have rarely seen this happen to him—wait, it's more like never.

"Nate, you have a beautiful body, and of course, you're super hot, and I'm even hotter, so I think we should tell the world about us," I said with confidence, and he reddened at how blunt I was.

"ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TALKING ABOUT TELLING PEOPLE OUR SECRET WHEN YOU ALMOST DIED?" Nate yells 

"Yeah, so what? I'm alive now; there's nothing wrong with that unless you're scared." I teased, and he turned even redder.

"Would you stop it?" Nate says I'm just looking away, and I smile at him.

Nate clears his throat and looks at me seriously.

"Gabby, you broke both of your ribs and were lucky enough to have not gotten killed," Nate says, and I sigh.

Nate, I understand, but—" Gabby was interrupted.

"But nothing, you should've never joined such a battle in the first place; it was rated mature for good reason," Nate says.

"Aren't they all since you have to be 18 or older?" I joked, but Nate wasn't laughing.

"This is serious." "Gabriella, I love you too much to lose you, and this tournament you were doing was meant to end with someone dying," Nate says, and Gabriella blushes.

"Did you just say you love me?" I asked, and Nate nodded.

CAN. NOT. COMPUTE. I REPEAT. CAN'T COMPUTE CUTENESS OVERLOAD 

"I can't have you risking your life and me praying to God that you don't die." "You need to stop doing these tournaments and actually get into something serious," Nate says, and I woke up from his hypnosis.

"Stop the tournaments?" "I get good money from these, and I don't even need to use my talent, and the stuff I got for you made you love me even more," I said, and he shakes his head.

"I don't love you because of the things you bought me; I love you because you're you," Nate says, and I just aww at his words.

"I love you, Nathan," I said to him with a heart in my eyes.

"Just, please don't do the tournaments anymore, at least if you want to stay alive," Nate says to me, and I agree with him, knowing that if I don't, he might take back everything he just said to me.

Nate was pretty close to my face, and I smirked at him.

"You know we are alone," I said, but he wasn't messing with me today.

"No," Nate says sternly.

"Why?" I asked now, acting like a baby.

"Let's just wait a little longer, kay?" Nate says.

"You said wait until marriage, and we are married; I'm 26 and you're 30; who knows if I'm still going to have this body?" I said to him, then crossed my arms.

"You have raging people out there wanting their money back because you made them bet on you losing." "I'm surprised you would count that as being "alone," Nate says, not convinced.

"Well, can we go on a date?" I asked him, and he nodded.

"I can feel my power growing now, and with the power of love, I can do anything." "Maybe even get a kiss?" I said we both lean forward, but then more loud noises come from outside.

"YOU KNOW WHAT!!! SCREW IT!!" Nathan says and walks outside.

"EVERYONE SHUT THE HELL UP!!" Nathan screams: "Some people ran away."

"Oh yeah, what are you going to do?" Someone says, and then Nathan growls 

"Okay, you know what, nevermind," someone says, and Nathan comes back inside in his dragon form.

"I will always love your dragon form," I said to him, and he realized what I was talking about.

Nathan turned back into normal form and blushed. I walk to him and kiss him on the lips.

Nathan Naveen, age 30; talent With healing, he can turn into a half-human, half-dragon and basically do what a dragon can, and with healing, he can well... He can heal people, just not himself.

Nathan blushes due to the sudden kiss, but he kisses back.

A week later 

"Hey, look at you!" "I guess you found a job," said Nathan, putting on his lab coat.

"Yep, I have." "You should know the job anyway; I got my degree in that," I said, trying to put my hair in a bun.

Nathan walks to me and helps me.

"Wow, you're a teacher; I never thought that you could handle teens," Nathan says surprised.

"Well, I didn't think so myself, but I'm going to be a great math teacher," I said to him with a smile.

"Oh, what school will you be teaching at anyway?" Nathan asked and finished putting her hair up in a bun.

"Gabriel Veréz School of the Arts," I said, and just watch his smile go from up to down.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?" Nathan yelled, and I tried to calm him down.

[call-sign-shark]

Aaaah! Alright first thing: "To the Red Demon!” he bellowed out, swaying so dangerously on his feet Lucy was worried he would fall off the bar." You adorable and lanky thing, I love you so much. Back to the real topic now that the shark had her fangirl moment.

The brief mention of John crying over Martha broke my heart. You didn't have to do that. Apart from John, I think it was so sweet of Tommy to say 'it doesn't count' when they are talking about Lucy's sexual past. My heart is hurting at the simple thought that Lucy had never been able to live for herself. Not only her dad was always behind her, looking at her every move, but she had been forced to marry and have sex with Matthew. If I understand her story well, the moment she found the strength to rebel she got raped and buried alive, right? This is just awful. Fucking awful. In truth, she's one hell of a strong woman to be still standing after everything she went through. "Even miles away, the thought of his rage if he ever found out terrified me" What the hell. In truth, Lucy ain't the monster. She's what real monsters made of her. "The idea of living excited me. I miss feeling like that". Ouch, the feels and the sorrow of this line. She definitely complements Tommy.

The whole scene of Lucy opening up to him while their physical proximity is slowly breaking is such a soft and clever way to illustrate how safe Tommy makes her feel. The tenderness of their interactions never fails to make me smile -- your soft portrayal of Tommy drastically contrasts with how you had introduced us to him, and I sincerely appreciate it. In a way it echoes beautifully with both of the characters: they are demons for their enemies but soft with each other. I'm dying of a cuteness overload. The same goes with how he makes always 100% sure she consents to have sex -- He's so careful with her, now wanting to break her more than she already is.

The thing with smut is that it's either cringey or well-written... Well let me tell you that the intimate scene between Lucy and Tommy made me swoon. I was smiling tenderly like an idiot in front of my computer screen throughout the whole part. "You don't listen to the voices //you listen to me" come on, I almost teared up while reading two people making out? It makes no sense. Fortunately enough, you make up for all the emotions with some delicious smut. He's such a giver with her, and once again: asking several times for her consent makes him even hotter. I mean, the fact that he stops when he feels her tensing around him and he cuddles her?? Please Tommy?? This is adorable?? Also, there's something in him guiding her through the whole ordeal that is exquisite.

"Chancing a glance down, her eyes widened in a way she had to imagine was at least somewhat comical. Jesus fucking Christ, how the hell was that going to fit inside her?" OKAY THAT GOT ME LAUGHING SO MUCH. I know Lucy, I know. We all know. 😂

"Can I touch your hair?" STOP STOP IT'S SO CUTE. Asking her 'cause they pulled her hair!! 😭  + "She let out an undignified squeak and buried her burning face into his chest. “Stop making me blush.” When I tell you I blushed like a schoolgirl 'cause I ship them. My rotten heart can't handle so much softness. Gosh, these two were so insanely cute and hot. She couldn't dream for a better first time 'cause it is what it is: her real first time with a loving and caring man. Her healing a little bit through her intercourse with Tommy is one hell of a beautiful aspect of their relationship.

My Thoughts on Kanou and Someya's Relationship

Note: I'm not referring to Kanou Somoku and Someya Kaoruko. I'm referring to their parents. I'll address Kanou as Somoku, his father as Kanou, and Kaoruko's father as Someya. This is not a review of Okane Ga Nai. I will not be criticizing nor defending the series and all of its problems. This is just an account of my thoughts on Kanou and Someya's relationship.

The first time I read Okane Ga Nai, I never thought I'd be consumed with the desire to create fanfiction/fanart of a side pairing, much less this massive, soul-consuming post, yet here I am. I'll go by sequential order, oldest chapter to the newest.

1.) Vol. 6, Ch. 4

In this chapter, Ayase asked Somoku if he and his father had any nostalgic memories. Somoku answers no because Kanou took him to mahjong clubs.

Nothing much happened here in terms of Kanou and Someya's relationship. However, I include this flashback because it's the first time we see these characters interact, and it gives us an understanding of their dynamic.

As we saw in this picture, Kanou and Someya's dynamic is lacking. Someya objects to Kanou's cruel demand to be paid for beating Somoku, and Kanou dismisses him.

There is no chemistry between them. Their interactions are reserved and distant. I really don't have much to say about this flashback other than this wasn't the moment I decided to ship them. The following section is when I started to get interested.

2.) Vol. 8, Ch. 4.5

This comic strip is to blame for my obsession. Basically, it's just a funny story about Somoku's upbringing.

I like how Somoku was basically a demon since birth lmao.

Anyways, the reason why I say this comic strip was the cause of my obsession is that Kanou had to rely on Someya. A ruthless man is reduced to an incompetent father who has to rely on his friend with the personality of a chihuahua. How funny is that?? I found it hilarious and cute.

But the other reason why I love this comic strip is that Kanou is getting used to Someya. Thinking back to Vol. 6, Ch. 4, I mentioned that Kanou basically treated Someya like an outsider. To me, that implies that Kanou wanted to raise Somoku alone; he didn't want/need the opinion of others. And with Kanou's mindset that not even familial bonds should get in the way of business, it's no surprise that Kanou would raise Somoku alone. However, he realizes that raising a kid isn't as easy as he thought it would be lol.

So here comes Someya in all his short-tempered glory and destroys Kanou's peace. I imagine that Kanou would be uncomfortable with having another person barging into his home, nagging him for his inappropriate behavior, and making noise when playing with his baby. And that uncomfortable feeling is manifested in silence as Kanou just listens to Someya scold him like in the second picture. I mean, what else can Kanou do to not piss off the only help he has? He's helpless, and I love it LMAO

I was fangirling so hard after reading this comic. And then comes Vol. 9, Ch. 38

3.) Vol. 9, 38

There isn't much interaction between Kanou and Someya, but there are cute moments about Someya being important to Somoku.

First, let me start off by commenting on this picture.

AHHHH! The cuteness overload >.< Anyways...

I'm probably reading too much into this picture, but I can't help but feel like this is symbolic. Turning your back to someone is a symbol of trust, and the fact that Kanou is back-to-back with Someya is making me squeal!!! But not only does Kanou trust Someya, but Somoku trusts Someya. So much so that he prefers sitting in Someya's lap over his father's lap. It might be logical that Somoku would prefer to sit with Someya, but Somoku grew up with his father's lessons about trusting no one; Somoku wouldn't trust so easily with that mentality but he doessssss! He finds security and maybe even comfort in Someya, and that's just so cute to me.

Someya is the glue of the Kanou household, the center, and I'm dying to see more about the trio.

Last comment about this chapter, take a look at the quote, "'Only two people can do that to the President and live. The previous president and Someya-sensei." The side character says this to Ayase after he sees Someya whack Somoku and it's just so funny to me. Like, the poor boy was just thinking about how scary Somoku was that he had yakuza henchmen trembling and then out comes some angry chihuahua to hit Somoku. Everybody gangsta until your parents whoop your ass.

Also, look at how alike Someya and Somoku are <3

Last thing I swear. Takanohashi is a real one for starting my "Someya is a mother/wife" campaign lmao he's a fudanshi at heart.

4.) Vol. 10, 45.1

THIS IS MY FAVORITE FLASHBACK!

Okay, so this is my favorite flashback because KANOU IS FINALLY COMFORTABLE WITH SOMEYA!

Kanou feels comfortable enough to tease Someya by calling him a "certain fussy lawyer." The tone of the panel where the quote comes from is a joking tone because the characters are drawn in a style similar to chibi form, which is why I say it's a joke and not an insult. They've become so close as they rightfully should be because they've been raising a kid together for years.

Another reason I love this flashback is that Somoku secretly loves that Someya showed up for him. He was prepared to not see his father at the school and then comes Someya and Somoku blushes! It warms my heart that a child gets the emotional support they deserve.

I have to say that as much progress as Kanou and Someya have made, Kanou still thinks he's alone sometimes. Someya yells in the last picture, "...when you say 'I'm taking responsibility for Somoku!'" Kanou still makes comments where he takes sole responsibility for Somoku, and that hits hard after looking at the latest chapters, but basically, it's like Kanou reminds himself that he shouldn't confide in Someya as a co-parent. And that's just sad :(

5.) Vol. 12, Ch. 5

This is so cuteeee <3

"It's because we're too soft on you." -> AHHHHH! <3<3 Another example of Kanou being comfortable with Someya. He's thinking about themselves as married.

"I'll sue him for defaming your father's character!!" -> Actual development on Someya's part. Usually, Someya gets mad at Kanou, but this time he's mad for Kanou. This time Kanou isn't the enemy in Someya's eyes; Kanou is the one who needs "protecting."

Also, can I point out that Someya spends way too much time with the Kanous? I understood that he needed to be there a lot because Somoku was a baby, but now he's a child, he should be able to live another day under Kanou's "care." Someya doesn't need to be there, but I love that he is there often :)

6.) 69-71

HERE COMES THE ANGST. I don't know if this counts as a spoiler because the chapter(s) has been on mangago.com for a good month, but whatever, spoiler alert.

My heart...hurts.

Look at Someya's terrified face in the first picture. You'd think he saw a ghost, but no, it's just Someya surprised at Ayase's comment about Somoku looking like Kanou. Why was he surprised?

Kanou's last wish was for Somoku to be different than him. Kanou had expressed to Someya only that he wanted Somoku to be different and that means he didn't want Somoku to be alone.

I've mentioned that Kanou had a solitary mindset, especially before Someya got involved in Somoku's upbringing, but why did he think like that? He's a loan shark, first and foremost. It's not easy for him to trust because trusting the wrong person can be dangerous. And he has to be ruthless to ensure no one tries to get away with stealing his money. It's no wonder why Kanou came across as a lonely character in Vol. 6, Ch. 4, and the comic strip. He believes being alone helps him in the long run, even if it creates enemies like Konomi.

But Kanou raised Somoku to think like him, so what difference does it make that Kanou doesn't want Somoku to be like him?

I think the difference has something to do with regret. Kanou believed being alone protects him at his job, and he probably thought Somoku was going to take his place, so Kanou trained Somoku to think like him. But Kanou didn't take into account that Someya would change his perspective. Someya showed Kanou that sometimes he had to trust someone else and that trusting could lead to a bond so strong, so beautiful that even if they yelled at each other or pushed each other away, they'd be there for each other. And Kanou probably regrets that it took (maybe 6-12 years, I don't know how old Somoku is in the Vol. 10, Ch. 45.1 flashback) so long to trust Someya. He could've enjoyed Someya's companionship sooner had he not been so stuck in his solitary ways.

So even if Kanou wants Somoku to think like him because he thinks it'll keep Somoku alive, he wants Somoku to behave in the way Someya raised him. It's why, despite Kanou judging Somoku's brattiness, he comments, "...it's a good thing that that damned brat isn't anything like me." Because it's Someya's influence. Somoku's brattiness is Someya's fault. Somoku being short-tempered is Someya's fault. Kanou sees a difference in Somoku (because Kanou sure as hell wouldn't act like that at all), and he couldn't be happier. Why? Because Kanou doesn't want Somoku to be alone.

I think Someya gave Kanou the wrong idea that those personality traits are what will help Somoku make friends lol, but they are a sign that Somoku isn't emotionally stunted like Kanou. Somoku has the capacity to learn personality traits that will get him friends, and that's probably enough for Kanou.

And because Kanou had expressed his satisfaction only to Someya right before he died (LOOK AT THAT GENTLE SMILE HOLY SHIT), Someya took it upon himself to carry on Kanou's wish.

It's why Someya is so devasted in the sixth and seventh pictures when he saw Somoku's harsh expression mirror Kanou's expression. Someya feared Somoku would harden his heart and follow Kanou's footsteps. It's why Someya felt so much relief in the last pictures because he knew Ayase would change Somoku for the better and help carry out Kanou's wish when Someya no longer can.

SOMEYA IS SUCH A DEDICATED HUSBAND TO KANOU THAT HE WOULD THROW AWAY HIS HOMOPHOBIA IF ONLY TO GRANT KANOU'S WISH T-T

I'm sad that Kanou and Someya couldn't get a happy ending. I'm devastated that Kanou died alone after having known companionship. I'm upset that Someya has to live on as a widow burdened with the unabsolved guilt of having failed his husband. I'm disappointed that Somoku couldn't see that his father did care about him and that Somoku probably won't get a chance to think about that.

~*~

Well, that was my emotional journey as I read through the Kanou-Someya moments. I hope I got everything and explained everything even though nobody asked for this. I'm just glad I got to share my thoughts.

Here are some more pictures that I found cute but I didn't include:
