Two thoughts I always have when I come back to this one:
1) really feel like this one shouldn't be tagged as Yuri (the kid is what, 8 at the oldest?) I know the sequel is, but that's years down the line.
2) can't help but feel like the fake-out scene where she almost strangles the kid is super out of place. Like god damn girl, calm down, this ain't that kinda story.
Other than that, one of my favorites on this site. Come back every few months to read it again and it's just delightful.
