Not really a fan of this one. Normally I'm as enthusiastic a consumer of yuri incest as anyone, but this particular situation is depicted in a way that made me uneasy. They're identical twins who are taking pains to remain as total mirror images, even though they hate being mistaken for each other and feel a sense of isolation from the rest of the world because of it. If they hate being so alike, they could easily fix it. Get different haircuts. Wear different clothes. Take up different hobbies.
I'm probably sounding a bit harsh with what's just a very short, unambitious one-shot. I'm a little surprised at my own reaction as well, but to me incest is a story dynamic that has to be presented with care in order to keep the attraction both believable and positive. I wouldn't call this attraction, but rather...a type of obsession, and one the story goes out of its way to make clear is unhealthy for them. It also seems to be hinting heavily that they'll eventually grow apart, which would probably be for the best in this particular case, but I felt it was an additional blow against the yuri, which was the only point of this situation to begin with.
Regardless, thank you for your efforts, Fly by Yuri.
