tomoyo initially getting an interest in akiho because she’s “like sakura” but because she’s tomoyo, and she notices people, she quickly picks up on the ways that they aren’t similar at all. the obvious things like how akiho’s traveled the world and sakura’s only left japan once, how akiho spends more time with books than sakura does, how akiho likes to sing vs sakura likes sports. the subtle things, too, like mannerisms and the cadence of their voices. 

akiho getting an interest, because she’s not used to be seen, in someone caring about her enough to notice. being known is being loved. and by tomoyo of all people. tomoyo, who is sure of herself and unashamed to be herself. tomoyo, who always puts others first, cheering them on. tomoyo, who is behind the camera but never in front of it. 

tomoyo getting flustered, because she’s spent her years thinking that she would never find someone who would love her back, and she doesn’t know what to do with it.  tomoyo struggling with should she stay in her comfort zone (”i want to capture every moment of this”) or if she should try to keep the camera away and live in the moment. 

akiho getting flustered because tomoyo constantly insists on filming her - “i just like to see you!” - and again, she’s not used to being seen. more than that, she’s not used to someone who wants to see her, and so actively. akiho struggling with allowing herself to be loved and cared for by someone who isn’t kaito. 

akitomo picnic dates, where tomoyo brings food her family’s staff made & akiho brings sweets that kaito made. akitomo movie dates. akitomo dates where akiho shows tomoyo all of her photos from around the world. 

tomoyo and akiho!

akiho and tomoyo!
