I love to make good decisions based on sufficient information that will end well for me.

To be fair, "hawt" + "nice to me" can make some pretty compelling information points.

Well I assume they're both unemployed now, so this household's gonna need a breadwinner soon

Girl is rushing to the first place of comfort when she's in a vulnerable place, and I really hope she's not also rushing off a cliff with this choice...

You make a very valid point. She's in a state of emotional pain, and Seno offered her comfort, which she probably appreciated. That may have led to her impulsive decision to offer to room with the girl. That said, judging by the current tags, I think the story will stay light, though who knows, new tags might be added later. :)

Yeah I think the tags being based on what's currently known can sometimes be a dangerous thing to rely on, since they can charge with future chapters

I am intrigued, but also… I think "MC with social anxiety/some type of complex meets person who even thought is beautiful/perfect also has problems" formula has been used too much lately when telling stories(yuri) with adult characters

Both of them are in the cover so I’m sure they will end up together, I don’t think anything real bad will happen either

As long as it's an at least decently done story I personally don't mind getting more of a familiar story beat.

There are other stories along these lines? I'm happy to be getting more Yuri in general so my response is basically this:

Sorry, but am (just) guessing this is going to be toxic.

Synopsis from Comic Seymour:

One day, Nayu, who quit her job due to social phobia, meets Karen, who is as beautiful as a jewel.
Karen has a high fever and is curled up outside. Unable
to bear the sight, Nayu takes Karen into her house, bathes her, and takes care of her.
However, Karen is homeless and moves from one friend's house to another, and by chance, they end up living together.
Sensitive Nayu and free-spirited Karen.
Nayu's closed heart gradually opens up as she sees the contrasting lives of the two, and she begins to have special feelings for them.
However, it seems that Karen is hiding a secret from her past --!?

Yeah I'm worried about this heading into a worrying and potentially toxic direction, I need some more wholesome as well.

However, it seems that Karen is hiding a secret from her past --!?

I don't even know if I can think of it as a secret when Nayu allowed this woman she barely knows into her home, of course there's going to be a problem that she doesn't know about. She's known her for less than 24 hour hours, and she doesn't even know why this woman is homeless, sick, drifting from place to place, and so on. I just hope there's a happy end at the very least.

I agree, but calling it a secret is more dramatic :D

Nice art, interested to see where it goes. The blatant wish fulfillment of the premise is kind of funny but whatever.

Is adjustment disorder even a real thing? Or is it another way to bully neurodivergent people out of their job?

The way you're asking is like "Is depression even a real thing".

This has the makings of an excellent read. It's on my follow list as of now, looking forward to seeing where the author will be taking it. As a natural introvert who had to get used to working in an office , this is definitely speaking to me on a lot of levels (^^) I'll admit the whole premise is very '' oh my goddess-esque '', but putting a yuri twist on it could make it interesting.
