• Naoyoshi fell first, when he needed to take some photos of the match and noticed Kouki

• they became friends fast, Naoyoshi was very shy to approach him firstly

• once Naoyoshi let Kouki to use his camera, Kouki wondered why he didn't have any photos of himself and added "HOW?? you literally look like model! let me take a picture of you then"

^ Naoyoshi was blushing very hard

• they started dating after graduation, it took a little longer for Kouki to form an emotional connection and romantic attraction + it took long time for Naoyoshi to be used to Kouki's touch

• Naoyoshi avoids tactile contact with people (mostly strangers) and especially touching his back due to sexual trauma in middle school

^ Kouki didn't know about this for a while but but he assumed that something was wrong when he wanted to reflexively put his arm around their shoulder, but they pulled away from the touch and apologized

• sometimes Naoyoshi has bad dysphoric episodes when they throw away their clothes and feeling so grossed out he forbids Kouki to touch them; at best, Kouki can hold their hand and try to talk with them

^ Naoyoshi wears Kouki's clothes (mostly just big shirt and sweatpants) during these moments to comfort themself

• Kouki tried to propose twice, first time he didn't even have an opportunity to propose, as Naoyoshi offered to break up; Naoyoshi was in really bad state, they took a break from their relationship (Kouki returns to his parents' house mentioning that they broke up and hugs Chichi)

second time Kouki tries to propose, him and Naoyoshi are both crying because Kouki is afraid of being rejected (again) and because Naoyoshi is happy but also very anxious

^ Naoyoshi finds out that this wasn't a first try a little later

• Kouki often sends to Naoyoshi pics like this:

• Kouki refers to Naoyoshi as Nao, baby, bambi; Naoyoshi uses dear and honey for Kouki

• Naoyoshi is good at baking so he learned how to make Kouki's favorite cookies

• Kouki often peels fruits for Naoyoshi

• 24 moles, Kouki counted

• Kouki really likes shopping with Naoyoshi because it makes him happy and he supports any outfit Naoyoshi picks (especially dresses)

• they have mittelschnauzer, goldfinch and canary as pets

• unlike Kouki, Naoyoshi doesn't like crowded places and activities but he loves picnics and secluded places

• Kouki was very glad when he found out that Naoyoshi decided to grow their hair out again, he genuinely thinks Naoyoshi looks happier with it

• Kouki still doing the "kiss the hand" thing :)
