Intimacy is the capacity to be rather weird with someone – and finding that that’s ok with them.

Saiaku no Jinsei – Fuji Tobi
Koisuru Sono Jijou wa Story of Miike and his boyfriend who has a nape fetish. Saiaku no Jinsei Kawashima is a 3rd year highschool student who’s always had a shitty life. He has a violent personality so people constantly misjudge him and his actions. One day he meets Sayama, a 1st year who’s good at everything but has zero ambitions in life. Thanks to his easygoing personality, he becomes the only person who’s ever tried to understand Kawashima. These two will have a huge impact on each other’s lives.

Nape fetish story was stupid. Main story was really sweet. I’m glad they found each other again.

The Trigger – Isino AYa
With a family and a successful career, Mitsui has taken all the right steps to lead a normal life. So when it starts to fall apart, he can’t understand what went wrong. Then a chance encounter with Sone, from his long past schooldays, dredges up memories, and spurs violent reactions to a part of himself he has struggled to deny all his life.
Guy finally learned to accept he’s gay. Guy finally learned to live his life. Mildly interesting story.

Society of Gentlemen: A Confidential Problem – K.J. Charles
‘A Confidential Problem’ is a 4,000 word scene which takes place between chapters 15 and 16 of A Seditious Affair (after Silas has gone down to Arrandene, but before the finale). It’s not standalone, and won’t make any sense if you haven’t read A Seditious Affair.
Available through submission to the author’s page newsletter.
I still couldn’t get over this series! This short story features the development of Silas and Cyprian’s friendship. Cyprian was his cool, cunning self all throughout the conversation but when Silas turned the tables by asking the pertinent question, BAM! Right at the kokoro!
