This is beautiful. The last chapter was amazing and Toshiya was coy and elusive and Kaoru was captivated and I thought "Okay, that's sexy", but here...he's stripped of all pretenses, and it's entirely different from the feel of the last chapter, but it's sexy too, in a different way. I love it, but it also muddles my world-view a little bit...but that's a good thing in my opinion! Blegh...I'm sorry I don't have the brainpower for a more intelligent comment right now, I worked overnight and haven't slept, but I'll try to formulate my thoughts a little and see if I can't come up with a better insight. Keep up the good work!
