feels like a quiet, introspective drama where personal and family tensions simmer beneath a surface of polite social gatherings and small, awkward moments.

What players say
Players praise the writing and art of this free BL kinetic novel about two cousins, though the incest theme is a major point of warning. Reviews note there are no player choices and the story is short but well-developed.
