What players say
Players describe a slow-burn BL slice-of-life about a man who takes in his late father's young son, with a focus on everyday kindness and emotional gut punches. The child character is praised as well written, and the dynamic between the two leads balances a sweet, wholesome tone with heavy themes of grief and regret.
