I enjoyed this so much. The whole setting was wonderful, from the forest, to the dangerous creature infested swamp to the little village. And Aiba's tower (with corners?). Aiba and Ohno's relationship followed so naturally, and I loved all the different spell attempts (the chair, esp made me laugh).

Nino as Aiba's elven friend was great too - I hope Aiba gets his wish to have a drink with both of them someday.

The ending has such promise for the future - I'm sure Ohno will be visiting lots and Aiba will have plenty for him to do. And then Aiba can learn that the love will flow naturally and doesn't need to come from a spell.

Thank you for writing and sharing.
