You probably mean that Kouki has a Kansai accent, not accident (though that gave me a chuckle)! Yes, someone has to be the tall blond, and Kouki is PERFECT for the role. I'm so glad to see him back. <3

It's great to see Subaru gaining confidence in himself as an actor and taking the initiative with his relationship with Tomoya. Seems like there's been a lot of "what if"s floating through his head that have held him back from making it official. Kouki is a great asset for him.

I also really liked how you worked the actual set and cameras into the sex scene this time. Sure, it's nice when all of that fades into the background for the actors, but as a reader I enjoyed being reminded that they're filming. Great installment!

Um, yeah, that's been fixed, thanks for pointing it out! Given that I was about one day removed from my fall the day I wrote that part, it's no surprise that "accident" was foremost in my mind.

Kouki is probably the one thing Subaru most needed in this world - someone to offer him advice from an objective perspective. Face it, the opinions of the other guys in his life - Yuuki, Yo-ka and MiA - would be colored by the fact that they all have pretty strong feelings for him. (Yuuki would be likely to tell him, "Go ahead, but if he hurts you, I'll kill him," which would make Subaru hesitant).

The cameras are something I tend to forget about sometimes when writing filming scenes! I made sure they were included this time to provide a distinction between "filming" and "not filming" sex. (Also details about how frottage is normally not permissible in porn, or at least cut out of the final scene, but Uruha let it slide because the boys looked so damn hot doing it).

It's nice to bring back old characters. XD It's been awhile. Can't wait for Uruha's announcement. You've been teasing your readers too long!

Kouki had been out of the series too long - the last time he appeared was a cameo in Subaru's debut fic, Dirty Angel. And Subaru really does need an objective sounding board - someone who can be a big brother to him, rather than a member of his harem. As for Uruha's announcement - it's not a huge surprise, because it's something that's been mentioned before, but it's going to become official, and it will make some people very happy!

I know. I want to see the characters reactions.
