ojosqadra21yrCommentedAre they watching Gattaca?
It was an old subtitled foreign film about a future where humans could be genetically engineered. A man conceived naturally who had fraudulently assumed the identity of a perfectly engineered specimen to achieve his dream of going to space.- ojosqadra21yrPosted
TLDR; Even though I haven’t completed the book, this is easily one of my favorite works on this platform. The characters are three-dimensional, acting as if they were real people in their world. I wanted to see what decisions they made, and whether they found their happily ever after. I like romance, sure, but what kept me reading this was the mystery. The plot feels like it came from the authors heart- not a repetition of the same drama romance that so many novels here are like. How many books tell the story of a man struggling with his love for the same person in three different timelines? And said person happens to be a merfolk? Not many. And that’s great! However, no one would care about the unique sorry if the characters weren’t as endearing as they are. Cam, the main lead, is a hopeless romantic who funds out that the right thing to do isn’t always clear. Kaz, in all his incarnations, is alluring, sweet, and thoughtful. Even secondary characters like Sonny aren’ sidelined and are given allowance in the story.

Man I sure do love some exposition being sooonfed to me
This void was once an underworld designed to cleanse and reincarnate souls. This place has long since lost its purpose and its very existence started to fade, causing residual energy still in the space, to form a void crack into the most unlikely of spaces, sucking in the most unlikely o0f souls. - ojosqadra21yrPosted
TLDR; An enjoyable read; I don’t think it took more than four hours to finish. Some really good comfort, fluff, and reflections on relationships and moving forward from your past. The comfortable silences Takumi and Akira enjoy together are definitely my favorite parts of the story. Takumi is a little silly but very charming, and Akira is such a loving person. The side characters are a little lacking- the most interesting of the characters are the male leads for sure. The writing is succinct with very clever and touching moments here and there, and I feel the author dealt with trauma very well. A lot of BL authors romanticize or percate trauma, but in this story the characters react and feel like real people who’ve lived through difficult situations.

This line devastates me.
Akira was devastating. Takumi was devastated. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
Bogos binted?
Ogita shuffled Takumi quickly out of the tiny flat, down a couple of flights of stairs and into a discreet gray car. Windows tinted. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
wait would this be the other way around?

Elliot seems pretty dense for a secret agent 💀
"Are you telling me this as a warning or as a threat?" I ask, and Luis finally smiles. He doesn't say anything after, but his expression spoke dozens of words that I was unfortunately not able to comprehend. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
But he literally assaulted you 😭
The hard word rang in his ears, squeezing his throat and heart. No it wasn't like that! Steve was cruel, but not that way! And it's not that Martin couldn't get away from him… at least not physically… - ojosqadra21yrCommented
Oops! I think you meant Jack and not Jacek here ^^
Martin took a deep breath and smiled. It was not easy, but not as difficult as it was before the conversation with Jacek. Maybe he misjudged Jack after all, and the guy is really likeable. He was sincerely grateful to him for not asking for details, but offering support. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
I definitely wasn’ expecting this
"I ... I don't know," he admitted, unable to meet the man's eyes. He was glad to talk to someone about it, but he was terrified of what would happen if it all came out. How will he be able to meet his colleagues' eyes? How will he look at Allen's face? - ojosqadra21yrCommentedCh 14 Worldview differences

I don’ think Ami is going to be happy when she sees these fotos 🤣
As soon as they got out of the car, Wendy ran to Martin to take a selfie with him. The club bouncer looked at it suspiciously. The girl was dressed just for the party and famous, while the boy accompanying her did not look like someone visiting the salons. However, since he was in such company and a popular model was taking a photo with him, it meant that he met the standards of the place and without a single wry look Martin was allowed in. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
Yeah right….
"Let me introduce you: this is Martin, and this is Wendy and Tamara. Next come Karl and Anna - no surnames, positions or professions, just a bunch of friends heading to the party. - Unfortunately, ladies, since you are both equally cute, I cannot decide which one to sit next to me. In that case, to avoid conflicts, my colleague will take the place next to the driver." - ojosqadra21yrCommented
What does “klay” mean in this paragraph?
Karl Walton looked at his companion. She wasn't the famous model Martin had seen Karl with before, but she was certainly just as beautiful. Walton's companion, however, had more than beauty, and had an aura of klay and high society around her. - ojosqadra21yrCommented
I love your writing style so much !
Martin gasped as the red and yellow car raced down the track. The noise was so loud it could cause a serious headache, but Martin refused to wear muffled headphones. He wanted to spend his first day on the track fully experiencing all its aspects with the smell of burnt rubber, used oil and fresh gasoline. He wanted to engrave every smell, sound and image in his heart for good. These must be memories that will stay with him forever - the first day in his dream job.
