They got thrown out of the library. Ha

That librarian is far too high-strung.

Spin-Off series for the librarian finding her own girlfriend and learning to lighten up through the power of enjoying love and life when?

Only if they bond over show tunes and her paramour explicitly makes reference to The Music Man in the process of their courtship

Sure, why not? lol

I wonder if Chizuru and Mao know that Aya and Mitsuki are dating? They don't seem to be exactly hiding it in public, but Aya's mom doesn't know and it was unclear with Joe and Kanna.

I don't see how they could possibly miss it, especially since they're apparently now hanging out in the record shop as well.

As for Aya's mum, Chapter 124: Direct Hit suggests that even if it's not been explicitly stated it's strongly suspected.
On the last panel of the first page Aiko thinks "Are they truly dating?", then on the first panel of the second page she thinks "They're totally dating".

Just wanna say how nice it feels seeing Mitsuki being fully integrated into the friend group. They're comfortable enough to tease her, and got excited when they learned she uploaded her album, and Mitsuki meets up with them even without Aya... It gives me the warm fuzzies, ya know?

The Spice Girls had the right idea!

Welp, time for worries to consume and thinking the worries have to be dealt with solo

Awwwww that mannaresim when you're getting anxious. I hope Mitsuki will notice those poor nails and give Aya the assurance and love that will comfort her shooing her demons away.

I super love this story and I have been following it since the very beginning, buying the books in physical and all. But I am super bothered by the nail thing it's awful to see...a really awful trigger.

...I kinda hope this leads to her helping Aya trim her nails for the symbolism of it.

poor Aya, my heart hurts for her :\

Maybe because Aya has been the one to reach out and help Mitsuki all this time, but seeing her weak and self harming and hiding is doing a number on me, so this chapter made me cry. My poor baby, Aya. She deserves all the love in the world!

Hellooo??? Even I'm starting to fall for Mitsuki! Lol
Ps. Love the nail art

Really hoping Mitsuki notices Aya hiding her hands and does something— urges her to lean on her more, and that it’s okay to show her all her “bad” sides— I like how when Aya was thinking they didn’t need her there/she shouldn’t go in cuz of her nervous tick, Mitsuki rushes out to see her.

They're 100% going to have that conversation IMO and Mitsuki will tell her exactly that. Being strong is fine and all, but she's not alone in this now.

I don't think there will be any fleshed out 'becoming distant' plot, rather Mitsuki taking notice of Aya's newfound nervousness and assuring her

Pain

Oof. I can definitely relate to feeling anxious/needing support, but also being too embarrassed to ask for it, even if you know the people you would ask would be happy to help and trying to just grit your teeth and power through will only make things worse.

I definitely didn't just do that exact same thing while getting ready to move.

Well, that was a lie, but it's about to become the truth with some help from her girlfriend.

Mitsuki takes Aya's hand, kisses her scratched-up fingertips, and tells her to rely on her a little more.

Make it happen, Sumiko-sensei!

Did I just get clickbaited? Jeez no need to be so cruel, I'd read the chapter no matter what!

I'm giving you everything
All that joy can bring, this I swear
And all that I want from you
Is a promise you will be there

Nice callback to Narita's "the easiest thing in the world to do" from his introduction.
