"Melt me down until I'm positively a pile on the floor."

I'm the one who's gonna get queer feelings with this type of sexy writing...
It's sexy, lovely, it has some unique charm like Carol does. Well placed Historical tag.

If Beniko ever kabadons Yuki with those mega-hands she's gonna bring the whole cafe down. And it will be worth it.

That was sweet of her, being considerate of her fan's feelings like that.

It really does feel like a foreign adaptation of Carol. I kinda love that comparison.

"Custom" in this context is an archaic English term for "business". This meaning is the origin of the word "customer"; a customer is one who gives custom to a place of business. The translator's use of this archaism is probably deliberate, in order to foster the old-timey feel of the work.

One could say for sure, in more than one way
For this gal right here, she has the big gay

Ehem, bad poetry aside, I got interested in those comparisons to yaoi in previous comments. I haven't read much yaoi, so I mostly only know its tropes from wikis and discussions, and this manga seems to carry the most infamous ones rather shamelessly, such as the predatory dynamics and the characters' design. Yaoi with a Yuri paint job, if you will.

Other than that, I want this work to exploit its historical setting. So far, this very well may take place in a Starbucks, with a barista and a light novel writer (Or some weird gochiusa fan fiction) and feel mostly the same.
Oh well, I'll keep at it in the meantime.

Actually, if Dictionary.com's Random House Unabridged entry for "custom" is accurate, the sense of "the customers or patrons of a business firm, collectively" is not exactly archaic or obsolete, it's just rather rare nowadays.

I feel you, Yuki. Cats don't tend to like me as well.

I greatly enjoy everything about this story. The setting, the mysterious and elegant writer, the beautiful hostess waiting to be rescued from banality. The words they use really help sell their world.I

My sincere wish is that writer-sama wisks her away to an endlessly exciting art deco noire world.

I feel like it's gonna go all Fingersmith on us, & the authoress is going to have a sex library or something.
