Fic: The Camera Eye: A Reward For the Honest [Kouki x Manabu, NC-17]

Title: The Camera Eye: A Reward For the Honest
Chapter: Forty-seventh overall in The Camera Eye series - even though it takes place BEFORE the last installment I posted. It’s technically a sidestory to The Camera Eye: Trophy Boys 3 - Happily Ever After-After, but I’m considering this an interlude between seasons 2 and 3, not a true sidestory (

Yes yes YES!!! I knew these two would be perfect with each other, and they are! And the fact that Bu was watching Kouki during The Next Pornstar and crushing on him?! *squee*

For such an outgoing guy, Kouki handles Bu's shyness really thoughtfully. (I usually do the exact same thing Bu did at large parties: hide in the hall!) This is so good, you have me rethinking who I've cast my own Bu with!

The combination of a very outgoing guy and a very shy one is precisely why I thought these two would work well together. Sometimes a very loud person and a very quiet one is a disaster waiting to happen - and sometimes, like in this case, it benefits both parties by getting one person to slow down and the other to come out of his shell a little, but both of them working within the other's comfort zones. The fact that Kouki is a very big-hearted individual - he's not just an extravert, he genuinely likes people - makes it easy for him to know how to handle Baru. (It's actually surprising how easy Kouki is to write for me, given that I'm a complete introvert!)

I totally feel for Manabu. At parties I'm happy to stay back too! Alas, no one as pretty as Kouki ever comes and talks to me.

Seeing them finally get together was cute. I'd actually forgotten Manabu drew Kouki's keys during the ill fated key exchange. It'd be interesting to see if Uruha would ever try that again now that PSC has a much larger cast. It could lead to some very interesting pairings! And finding out that Manabu had watched and voted for Kouki in his heart all along. His shyness contrasts well with how warm and outgoing Kouki is.

Also adorable is how Kouki and Ryoga were always the Boring Married Couple of porn. But now Ryoga has Tsuzuku... any chance they'll get a side-story? There's a severe shortage of fics with those boys which is a damn shame because of the chemistry they have. *fans self* They were SO cute during the MejiBorn tour in late 2014. Holding hands... shirtless Tsuzuku hugging Ryoga then grabbing his ass and kissing him. Eternal fangirling from me haha.

Oh, I can SO relate to Manabu. You reach the point where (as he did here) you have to take a break and get away from all those people. (And we all should be so lucky to be found by a guy like Kouki at a time like that!)

The fact that I'd paired them a long time ago and then never did anything about it is why I wanted to give the pairing another shot, and it's actually going to go somewhere this time! (The idea came from that stunt they did together at Visual Battle Royale, where they repeatedly ended up in each other's arms - that event was a GOLD MINE for fic). As for the Tsuzuku/Ryoga pairing - right now I don't have much of an active muse for either of them, unfortunately. (But you're right that the lack of fic for them is surprising, especially given some of the pictures that were taken of them!)

Me too. I was at a networking event last week and it was overwhelming being around all these people. A bit of peace and quiet is a must!

It's nice that you went back and revisited them then. Aw that sounds absolutely adorable. I'll have to find a video for that. Alas about Tsuzuku/Ryoga but you've got enough on your plate without doing additional sidestories. Maybe in the future you'll have active muses for both. It really is a shame! I've been wanting to write more of them myself it's a matter of ideas. And time lol.

I just noticed that I spend way too much time reading your fics and not enough commenting. You update regularly with plenty of yummyness andI that deserves a shitload of kudos and cookies. So, thank you for that, you give me my monthly dose of open and I am extremely grateful <3

Can I just say that I love Manabu? So shy andI sweet and exactly what he's supposed to be. He works really, really well with Kouki, they balance each other, and it seems like they were both waiting for it to happen. At least, their night ended in the best way possible. I wish I could walk out during a party and stumble upon Kouki.... now, that would be something! *laughs*

Keep up the good work, it's really nice to get new stories so often. Thank you <3 meanwhile, I'll keep my fingers crossed for nokubura porn (Hiro x Yuuki, anyone?) <3
