1. "...did you have any plans to get mad at me too, Maekawa-san?"
2. "You still haven't submitted your travel expenses for your last business trip, you know."
3. "Koike-san'll be mad at you~"
4. "oi there!"
6. "Aw. Crap. I forgot."
7. "Not especially~"
8. "...shall we get going?"
9. "Yes."
10. "Why would you think that~?"
Loading…Loading…
1. "Wow, it really is coming down."
2. "Can I hold that?"
3. "No, I'm fine."
4. I just didn't know what to do except hide out at the office...
5. I know that's not exactly helpful, but I'm not great at getting through to you either...
1. "I thought you said you weren't into women?"
2. "I don't believe you at all."
3. Stubborn As A Mule
4. "Huh?"
6. "Bleh. I don't wanna say any of that out loud..."
7. If I said I might like her in a sort of romantic way...
8. But maybe I don't need to...?
9. "How's the manga going?"
10. "Awful."
11. "I'm starting it over."
12. "Oho..."
1. "I mean, not that I'm much use to you, but, y'know!"
2. "Once work's slowed down I'll try to start coming around again."
3. "Sorry about that... Just wasn't able to come over."
4. "I'm blaming you for everything."
5. "Eh?"
1. "Are you okay? Can you stand?"
2. "Eh? Um? What's up?"
3. "Oh, look, light's green! Time for us to get going!"
1. "What the hell was that!?"
2. "We needed to go somewhere we could talk things over."
3. "You could just say!!"
4. "Think about personal space and stuff!"
5. "We're both women! You can't just start clinging onto me like that!"
6. "I don't usually do that."
7. "Huh?"
1. "But you make me do things I wouldn't ever do, Shimizu-san."
1. "I'm being honest this time."
2. "Stop screwing with me!"
3. "I'm happy, really happy, that I'm special to you,"
4. "Yeah, well, cut it out!"
5. "Hey, Shimizu-san."
6. "but this is just going to lead to another misunderstanding! Again!"
1. "Um..."
2. "And you're scared of rejection, too."
3. "You"
4. "really are gay, aren't you?"
5. "You don't know what you're talking about..."
6. "So you just decided to throw yourself entirely into the world of fiction to explore it, right?"
7. "Don't worry about it, though."
8. "And don't be scared, either."
9. "Haha, that's the first thing that comes to mind? Love and happiness."
10. "No, you're wrong!"
11. "It's not about me! Never been about me! I just love my ships...!"
1. "I'm not going to reject you, Shimizu-san. I'll deny you nothing."
2. "and be honest with ourselves, okay?"
3. "So let's go beyond the page,"
4. "...!"
5. "lying?"
6. "Maeka-"
7. Before, wasn't she--
8. "Why?"
1. "Just, please don't leave me alone. Please."
1. "I definitely like you, Maekawa."
2. "But there were things I'd never understood by myself."
3. "I just thought everyone would hurt me, and wouldn't want me."
4. "but you're right."
5. "...I thought I'd never come to be alright with liking women,"
1. "Now I can separate this"
2. "from all the doujin stuff!"
3. "And, y'know, you've been hurt too, right?"
4. "I bet I haven't helped that, at all, with how weird I've been. Sorry."
5. "God, this has been weighing on me for so long!"
6. "But there's no two ways about it. I like you."
7. "I still don't really know, realistically, what I'm gonna do with all these feelings, but..."
8. "...whatever you want."
9. "Is that okay?"
10. "Either way, I want to keep on helping you."
1. "Whatever you want."
2. "Eh...?"
3. "ugh..."
4. "you don't get to say that!"
5. "What the hell?"
6. "That's not it!"
7. "Well, I'm a pretty, friendly girl with overly affectionate body language, who wouldn't like me?"
8. "Shimizu-san, what you feel for me--"
1. "is for what you and I have to be something that just ends up with us falling apart."
2. "The last thing I want..."
3. "Don't keep on pulling me around like this."
4. "I get that."
5. "And thank you."
6. "..."
7. "Mm."
1. "Let's make up?"
2. "No matter who catches whatever feelings in whatever direction, I'm gonna keep on supporting you."
3. "Seeing you work so hard on your manga is what made me fall for you!"
1. "I wasn't scared of that, Shimizu-san."
2. "Don't worry! I won't pull any more weird stuff!"
3. "I don't wanna!"
4. "Now you're the one being weird!"
5. "No problem with that, right?"
6. "In fact, it's the opposite! You don't have to hold back! You're pent up and touch-starved, aren't you? Then use me as you wish--"
1. "I mean, you've made it pretty clear you aren't into me in that way, right?"
2. "If you need to get some, then save it for your girlfriend or boyfriend!"
3. "Right? I can't imagine dating me either."
4. "...I suppose so. Everything else aside, I can't imagine actually dating you."
1. "Your throat sounds dry."
2. "No! Why!?"
3. "Have some more tea."
4. "We can't go THAT much back to normal!"
5. "Well, then! I'm going home and drawing."
6. "Eh? Come on, stay the night."
7. "Am I some kind of comfort bonsai?"
8. "If you're not around, Shimizu-san, then I get too calm and can't actually get things down on the page..."
9. You calm down when I'm there, huh...
1. "Just a little more..."
2. "I want to fix a couple more things..."
3. "Fine, I guess."
4. "Go to sleep."
5. Is this really the right way to go about this...?
7. maekawa: what if we kissed and fucked to erase your comphet (and we were both girls)
8. shimizu: i dont know that doesnt sound very woke :?
9. (i honestly love the slowburn and misunderstandings in this series... it works because maekawa literally wants to fuck.)
