Umino and Ando! Ahhh so freaking cute

Umino is amazing. He totally needs more credit. So reliable and grounded compared to the rest of them. Not overly emotional or critical either. And not dumb like Ando.

And might I add, Ph.D's are mighty attractive. And so is dorktastic interest in caves and figurines. Much more attractive than cigarettes.

I'm so glad the two of them got to travel together. I can kind of grasp how Ando survived 14 years alone with just airmail now. Jeez, that's a long time.

And holy crap, that's a long time for people to still be upset with him. And a long time for him to stay away from all the people he cares about. Ugh Mamoru and Takeshi.

Have I mentioned how lovable Umino is? Waking up early to be a tourist and making Ando wake up even earlier to write. And Ando not wanting to miss a moment with is best friend. And Ando worrying about how Umino is sunburnt, and Umino not caring in the slightest. And sharing a bed and being a snarky.

And then spontaneous trip to Tel Aviv just because they can and because they don't want their camaraderie and fun times to end. Oh so many feels.

I want Ando as my best friend. (Sorry, Mi) and I want Umino as my boyfriend (Sorry, Ami)

Best people ever.
How come they're not real? :(

My sweet, thanks for the beautiful review!

Umino really does need more credit. He is the most balanced, the most grounded of all the boys. Very few things faze him and Ando isn't one of them.

And Ando loves travelling, loves seeing the world, but he oh so loves his people too, mainly Minako and Umino (Rei is a whole other kettle of fish). Umino coming to Tel Aviv with him means the world to him, it's everything and more. Oh, the bromance!
