I very much enjoyed reading this. I try and avoid these things in my stories. But reading this is sorta reassuring. I feel I struggle in a few places as a writer and reading this is a bit reassuring of the direction I sorta wanna go in the new volume of one if my (what I feel) is one of my best stories. If you're ever interested you can try reading a story called Hanru Sazuki. It's different and who knows maybe you'll like it.
