It's a shame all my comments were deleted, but yeah this is a masterpiece.
And it's always fun to go back and read old stories with a more modern perspective.
I don't know if I was the first to notice the possibility of both main characters being neurodivergent, but I was definitely the first one to point it out in this comment section.
I'm not sure if the author meant for them to be on the spectrum; given how little neurodivergent people were understood at the time (still are), but I wouldn't be surprised if she at least tried to tell a story about 2 women who experience the world a little different than most.
a lovely story and probably one of the first yuri stories to have a happy ending.

hmmm I'm not sure about this, I didn't like the bit with the phone, I thought it was kinda tacky and it crossed boundaries as it could potentially get her fired, especially if it's something important. Also that thing she said about "you can't say no", uhm actually she can, retracting consent is something that is important especially in a BDSM relationship (which this one seem to be) as the people in them need to have total trust in one another, I would say it's essential. I know this is a work of fiction but sometimes I worry if people who are reading these things get the wrong idea.

My favorite tag of all time, it's nice to see more and more people start to appreciate it. I suppose it has to do with the readership getting older. I especially love the stories where the adult characters resolve their conflicts like adults without unnecessary drama, love that.

...real

no comments in almost 10 years so I guess I'll go
this story puzzled me ever since I read it, so many questions left unanswered, which I guess is what happens on one shots
what was this being? what was their obsession with the stars? it just went up and left as soon as that girl yelled at her, she was like "welp I'm out" without any explanation
stories like these are frustrating because I'm sure there's a lot of lore behind it, but we'll never know.

oh nooo this seems like one of those student x teacher stories, I have that tag muted because of how gross I think that is, yikes

not for nothing but if you're hurting your partner during sex you might be doing something wrong, regardless of whether they're in the mood or not.
anyways this was like others have said a bittersweet but realistic ending, but that poster at the end gives me some hope that one day who knows, they might once again go to that paradise and throw away the suit together ;)

reminds me so much of this and there's really something cute about women longing for their adorable delivery girls.

thank you for the recommendation this is exactly what I was saying when I wanted to see more stories featuring delivery women, like this one

Ok no no no I need more and I'm so serious, I want to see how their relationship develops from idol and fan to actual intimate partners that's not totally creepy.
Would love if it could also delve more into that whole subject of what happens to idols once they're no longer in the spotlight, and how they carry on with their every day lives.
Gosh do I love adult life yuri that's realistic, I'm glad she technically didn't break the rules to go stalk her, and took time off work when she got injured and let the relationship flow naturally, I don't feel like a lot of authors would've done that.
This story for some reason reminds me of that other one with a delivery driver also finding love, I feel like that could be a sub genre within itself.

here to pay my respects

I want a Bowsette that ACTUALLY looks like the female version of the character

Perhaps the most depressing but realistic ending to a yuri manga I've ever read. This was really sad, but it's the reality of how things work, especially under capitalism. Makes me wonder if the author had more time to develop the story what they would've done. Would the couple have eventually settle in to the quiet little community? Would they have founded some kind of gay enclave with that other woman? We will truly never know, but it was an interesting and good story nonetheless.

^ I think that's a white person

aww they look cute as brides

they both look white to me where's the dark skin?

awww this was cute, also yaaay more butch representation!

I can honestly say I'm gutted about this :(
also has anybody noticed the amount of adult life titles that have been getting cancelled recently?

I can definitely see this comic turning into like Yokohama Kaidashi Kiko or some other iyashikei story like that, where
they spend the rest of their lives there happy and peaceful.

welp so much for that

predictable as hell but I really liked it it was cute, I really dig the artist's style.

Yeah I'm gonna have to agree with the others saying that the ending felt rushed, and it's probably because it was. Now I'm not gonna blame the author as this seems to be more of a case of the publisher rushing them to end it. That being said I thought the ending was cute, I liked how they were able to confess and talk about their emotions like reasonable adults, which seems to be a rarity in these works. It was honestly reminiscent of the ending scene of The Apartment (1960). These two are cute and I wish them the best in their relationship in a society that might not be as acceptable, especially given Hisaki's modeling career and how it can be affected by it.

took me a second I had to read the tags to know who they were, holy shit this is a good parody

Capitalism: The Comic
girl this so sad lol,
the whole point of the comic is them leaving their stressful lives in the city to go live in paradise, if they go back to the city with their tails between their legs it defeats the whole purpose of the comic.
Like others have said it's good they have family they can rely on though not many people have that, especially queer people.
I think they will stick it out though I'm hopeful
I can definitely see this comic turning into like Yokohama Kaidashi Kiko or some other iyashikei story like that, where they spend the rest of their lives there happy and peaceful.

I'm here
update: this meme is 10 years old btw

Yeah I don't know about this one, like I get it's a one shot but it still felt super rushed. That girl should've just minded her business and let things happen on their own. That kiss at the end felt...performative, it felt like that thing that some straight women do where they kiss another woman in front their boyfriends and other men for the shock factor, it didn't feel genuine. But who knows maybe she did develop feelings for her and all this needs it's a part 2. Also did anybody else get like a Nana vibe from this? I'm sorry I know I've said this before about other stories, but all roads always lead me there lol.

Alright so since all my comments got deleted here it goes again. This is super cute, it's great to see stories like these featuring older protagonist; which is quite rare. The relationship between the grandma and the granddaughter is adorable, love to see it. And those three ladies at the end were absolutely adorable as well.
