Hiroko making so many adorable faces in this chapter. I read the chapter twice in a row to relish them all. Especially the dumbfounded look of Hiroko's face in Ayaka's hand. Hrrngh.

DEEP SHAME

VERY DEEP SHAME

WHAT A SHAME.

SHAMELESS

I did not expect to see this after a long hiatus from this forum.
My condolences to Ssama's loved ones. I'm shocked.

So is anyone else madly in love with Sayaka? She's so perfect... *swoons*

She's certainly amazing. She dodged that bullet from Yuu with some serious class.

Also, I couldn't help but notice...

Uh oh, I wonder if Yuu is confiding in Sayaka about Touko.
If so, I CAN'T WAIT TO READ THE NEXT CHAPTER.

Yuu's sudden confession of feeling happy took them both by surprise, but I can't help but read the fear in both their eyes: http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/bloom_into_you_ch13#23
Maybe it's the fear in Yuu that if she openly comes to love Touko, her sempai will come to dislike and withdraw from her. And on the flip side, Touko fearing if Yuu loves her that she will become just like everyone else who wanted her to be someone she wasn't.

And, ugh, I died at Yuu's tenderness in drying Touko's hair.

My heart goes out to Sayaka. But jeez, is that girl SHARP. Can't hide anything from her.

Her secret unrequited love KILLS ME. She doesn't blindly idealize Touko either... She genuinely sees her and knows not to push her emotions onto her. But I dearly hope she gets her chance to be honest with Touko at the right time. I'd rather her feelings not go down like a sacrificial lamb.

Sayaka has ultimate yuri-dar.

I don't see why any of the characters are romantically interested in Donut, to be frank. She hasn't had much character development from the start.

As a side note, there's an interesting short documentary about tom culture in Thailand. It may give some cultural context when Donut's mother talks about tomboys hitting on her in her youth: https://youtu.be/rUagSrRd6kI

Nice chapter, waiting for the next.

Is Weiss agreeing to have a baby with Ruby, or confirming that it's possible to have science babies?

Well, on Kuma's Tumblr, there are some fanarts of White Rose (Weiss x Ruby), with their children, so I would say both (°∀°)b.

Examples:

Actually, there are some of her fanarts here too that show their children:

I completely forgot about those. Deplorably adorable. Can't wait to read more if that's on the horizon.

I just looked for it after your comment. I hunger for more than subtext!
Has anyone read Marceline Gone Adrift?

I LOVE THIS.

Always Human is pretty good: http://www.webtoons.com/en/romance/always-human/list?title_no=557
I highly recommend it.

Chapter 10... Loved it!
I really enjoyed Nanami's perspective at the end of the chapter, and how it led her to fall for Yuu. Her idea of love as a shackle is is on point with her experiences.
I think, at this point, Nanami has to show what she could provide for Yuu, if Yuu is going to really reciprocate her feelings. Yuu offers Nanami a lot and can see through her, but what does Nanami do for Yuu?

Here's their short exchange, after Seola grabs Norae's hand...

Seola: I didn't know Kyungju's beach could be this beautiful/pretty.
Norae: ... Beaches are the same anywhere (I suppose)...

Norae: Huh?
Seola: Next time, let's go, just the two of us.
Norae: Mm.

(She could have meant the sea, but I translated it as beach)

Who was the really, really tall chica chatting with Seol-a?!

Wasn't it Hee-jin?

I thought that might be the case, but I didn't remember her being so tall. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's her (most probably) xD Same person who was in their car last chapter.

Yes, it's Hee-jin. I made a mistake. Norae says in the end to her brother that she wants to see her sister, and her brother says that she'll be visiting over the summer.

I have so many questions:

Who was the really, really tall chica chatting with Seol-a?!

Norae's older sister.

Edit: Wait, am I wrong? Ugh, I can't tell anyone apart.

Something about Norae not graduating on time...
Norae and Seola don't say much to each other at the end, but the hand-holding is still sweet.

Beautiful composition.

This song can be applied to a lot of pairings, but I found it particularly relevant to Norae and Seola: https://youtu.be/Y-FhDScM_2w

"The movie they were watching" how was Seol-a watching it?! It looked like she was staring at No-rae who was watching it rofl.

Urk... It's early where I am. sips coffee
Edit: Whups, nevermind. I thought I made a grammatical error. I get what you're saying now. lol.

Also I really wanna know what on earth the dialogue is between them after the almost-kiss. It kind of looks like No-rae tries to joke about something and it fails and that's the reason Seol-a goes to bed.

Norae invited Seola to visit her family after the phone call, which Seola agreed to immediately. lol.

Does anyone know if there are plans for Fluttering Feelings to be released as a book?

If I remember correctly, Ssamba said no plans for book. If she planned for book, she would've taken more time with the art details in my opinion.

Damn... I would buy it, too. And hand them out like religious pamphlets.

Seola was demonstrating her favorite part of the movie they just watched.
And... NORAE LEANED IN. DIES

Fudge.... I'm dead

I'm so proud of her~. My baby made her move.

OH COME ON!!! KISS!!!

I should have known! As I'm scrolling down, it's " yes, Yes, YES, ..... NOOOoooo!!!"
Did Seola say "your hands are so cold" in English?

So close. Be still my beating heart.
