This is the most middle aged man yuri coded thing I have ever witnessed in my entire life. Going to be haunted by that pinky touch and also A1’s nipples god bless.

We have been spending months to get to a pinky touch. Worth it. He touched him for no reason, just cause he wanted to. It’s been so fun to watch this unfold I can’t wait for the next chapter. My beautiful A2 ❤️

Also also. I commented on a previous page that they were positioned like the birth of Adam, and if you’ll let me torture the metaphor a little bit, a2 was in god’s position in that one, and a1 was in Adam’s so, and so them being barely separated in the last couple pages (especially their HANDS, fuck me running) is just like in that painting and now a2 is the one closing the distance? Like I know we think of a2 as being obsessed with a1 like a god, and a2 will grovel and worship and crawl across glass. but like. In this tortured metaphor, a1 just got touched by the hand of god, and I choose to believe it’s gonna set off something magical and tragic. ESPECIALLY given what I think their names are. SORRY for the ramble. I just can’t stop thinking about them and the Implications of religious imagery.

charlie · March 5, 2024

no you’re so real for this like i made that joking comment comparing their perspectives but vati’s said a1 is almost as worshipful of a2 just in a slightly less fanatical way lol and this whole exchange has felt very touched by the grace of god anointed by his holiness etc

I glanced at the first panel and was like “oh hey look they’re actually making eye contact” but looking closer NOPE eyes closed. MY DUDES. But they’re so tender when they are looking at each other. And the pinky touch! A2 initiating contact!! I am obsessed and can’t believe this chapter is over 😭😭😭
