I'm not sure I'll ever be able to let go of Iwaki Kyousuke and Katou Youji.

Revisiting HwD this last week, catching up and reading the little stuff that I had passed by before and am now just getting to, it just makes me fall more and more in love with the two of them. Maybe it's because I've been reading this series for so long and just feel like they've become real to me... I feel like they're good, close friends whom I never want to leave.

I mean, I just read Propose Again last night for the first time. I don't know why it took me that long since I had read most of the extras, even the ones that were repeated and differed only in the bubble dialogue... But I was amazed by it. Katou and Iwaki really have been together a long, long time... And their love is stronger than ever. I really, really admire that, even if it's fictional. There's something so inspiring about it that I can't help but wish that Katou would get his dream of registering together as family. Of course, I would want it either way for every country to legalize gay marriage but that Katou is waiting with such a way is just so beautiful, even if it's also a bit sad.

And, the 10 year anniversary Q&A piece! My god, did I go into a fangirl frenzy reading it last night! I giggled and laughed and it was amazing. I love that sort of stuff -- it just makes me happy. And 10 years! Iwaki and Katou have been together so long but it doesn't seem to have so long either... And Iwaki is 40 this year! What a milestone! Considering Iwaki was not even 30 at the start, they really have been together for over a decade. I'm glad I read it though -- it makes them feel so much more real to me, though sometimes I wonder if that's a good thing...

Ah, I want to read read Harudaki again. One more from the beginning! ^^
