This was one of the first BL manga I read that had consent, like fr I was 14 when I read this. I adore this manga for so many reasons. The characters don't have to outwardly express their love for each other but you can see it in their actions. The sex scenes didn't feel out of place to me: they felt like an integral part of the story. The first time it was to affirm their insecurities, for Ryou that was whether shun could love him physically (apart from emotionally ofc) and for Shun it was to seal the deal (Ryou was his and he was Ryou's). The second time it was just an extension of that, and also they made love simply because they love each other
