This chapter felt a bit weird for me, haha. To think that creepy dad would act more the adult… And for Maomao to expect him to, as well. I wonder what’s up with their backstory beyond what we know so far.

Oh, that’s the one where they play Shogi with poisoned drinks? That was a fun chapter!

I won’t say anything, but I loved his backstory, by the way.

Wow, that was a fun chapter! I love seeing the interaction between 猫猫 and 羅漢; can’t wait to see more! I was wondering if 猫猫 was going to take the opportunity here to willfully poison herself since she doesn’t normally get the opportunity, haha.

I’m curious if 羅漢 genuinely has trouble telling people’s faces apart, or if the descriptions of people looking like game pieces to him is just a flowery way of describing his general worldview? I mean, there’s definitely a good chunk of the latter, but I’m curious if there’s any overlap.
