#our heart hurts over this and we're enjoying the story but hikaru's character really makes kim feel seen

[trans-rights-coastalmangoes]

reading The Summer Hikaru Died as an alter really is another experience......

i know this is played as a horror... but hikaru's deal really does capture a lot of the feelings of being an alter. especially one who wants to be friends with the people who know the usual guy. the hesitance. the uncertainty as to whether they're just playing nice because you share a body with their friend.

sighhhh good book good book

(please no spoilers we're only 6 chapters in)
