Effective storytelling with very few words, I'm intrigued by how vivid of a picture this is able to paint with such little runtime. A lot of things are left to implication, there's a lot to read between the lines. I think this VN really digs into children being used by their parents as an emotional support animal in a way that's particularly unique. Very beautiful.

Both of the main characters in mine are trans

End to end a beautiful mess of poor decisions made by deeply wounded people. The art initially brought me in, I really like the red highlights around Illix's face in some of the shots, but the narrative did not disappoint. I really like how it digs into the isolation and self-isolation kink and how it deeply wounds people and can push them to hurt others and make poor choices in their own isolation. 

A very touching small piece. I think it's nice to tell small little meaningful stories like this. A good reflection on how the guilt people make us feel for being transgender feels.
