I'm so glad that you liked this!! I loved the prompt a lot and had this Very Particular Tone that I wanted to capture which I actually do think I was successful with? And I'm glad it worked for you too!

Fandom secret, I am far more interested in (and comfy with) writing other characters observing Manami than writing Manami themself. Miki in particular was fun to do for that, I love her a lot. ;u;
