It's been funny seeing the people online being in denial about this pairing after the latest episode "Noo! Mari isn't Lara's true love, it's familial affection! They're just gal pals!"
I really like this picture - not only do you have Viola being genuinely tender and affectionate towards Miyako here, there's also some fun symbolism with how Viola's in the shadow and shading Miyako from the light.
^^I imagine you know that's how it goes. You could have Yuri or Yaoi where the pair gets married and has sex, which results in them having 5 kids, 30 years progress with grand kids, they retire and grow old together, and some will still say they seem like nice friends
