A collection of stories, Includes:
1) Natura-turaly from Joshi BL
My twin brother and I, we like and dislike the same things. Whatever we do, we do together. I thought we’d always be together—it seemed obvious. But a man appeared who says he loves my brother. Is the world I thought would go on forever starting to collapse?!
2) Veranda Nite (On the Veranda)
3) Count 3632
4) Step One
Suichi does not like to socialize with people. Why does Hana keep finding excuses to talk to him?
5) Last Play from Itai Ero
A couple’s relaxed routine is disrupted when the one partner proposes a new kind of play. To his surprise, his significant other discovers a higher affinity to his role than expected.
6) Michidzure from Gesu BL
A boy who is easily roped into things & a cool beauty who is a natural asshole.Extra: Prologue & Afterword
Had mixed emotions about the first story. I wanted the twins to be together but I also wanted the two boys to be together. Argh, such dilemna! Second story ended on a hopeful note, third one was so-so, fourth was already posted here previously and the last two were NSFW.

Okite Saisho ni Suru Koto wa – Shimura Takako
I want you to touch me. I want us to have sex. I want you to like me. I want you to love me. As a brother, and not as a brother.
The little brother was an ass, the older brother was a doormat. A slow burn love story with a lot of jerking off involve.

Komata-kun to Komata-chan –
Kobato Mebaru & Ogura Muku (Munya Munya Sue)
Two short one shots about school boys in love~1. Haruda has started dating the quiet, shy Shiba. Nurturing their relationship like a small, budding plant, Haruda promises he will never make Shiba cry. And on a hot summer afternoon, Shiba quietly pulls Haruda to the next step.2. Hoshino is confessed to by Oda, an adorable boy in glasses. They start dating, but Hoshino wonders why Oda chose him… since he started dating Oda, Hoshino feels like his world has expanded, but since he’s not a star*, why would Oda like him?*Hoshino means “star” but he thinks of himself as gloomy.
The theme is that awkward just-started-dating phase and both authors captured it well.

A highly recommended debut about angsty unrequited love.

Dame na Yatsu Hodo Kawaii – Ueda Niku
One day, Arata was forced to take in a freeloader by the request of his friend.
That man, Narumi, almost burns everything when he cooks, and can’t get into the bath on his own; in other words he’s a hopelessly clumsy man.Arata is at a loss, but he just can’t leave Narumi alone!?
Other completed works include: A high-schooler that observes his friends’ love, A flashy guy x a son of a distinguished family’s elopement, And a cold guy x Crossdressing guy.
A useless adult who can’t do anything so he whores himself out? Sorry, not cute. Fortunately it’s only one chapter and an extra. I don’t know how much I could bear that crap.
Oooh, the second chapter! Development of a relationship between two childhood friends from the perspective of a mutual friend is something worth reading. Loving this one.
Third chapter was cute, fun and so wonderfully carefree. Another win.
Not feeling the fourth and fifth chapters. Two guys working at a crossdressing cafe hooking up for almost no reason at all. The senpai disappeared and suddenly resurfaced with a case of amnesia. Crappy plot.

Shoujo C – Hideyoshico
I’m nothing special, but Koizumi-kun is a very special guy whose looks and personality are seriously those of an angel. He’s our idol. This popular pair was introduced in “High School Lullaby" (Gesu BL)
These two at it again. I love the change in POV. Make this a series already please!

Musubenai Necktie – Tagura Tohru
Third year student Ren helps out first year student Nachi with his necktie every morning at the train station.
A very average story. I found the tension mild and it ended just when it was getting good.
