There aren't many things in this world that Hanyu Ryo considers worth thinking about.
Among them, "How to propose to my handsome, adorable, wealthy, completely ordinary boyfriend without letting my secret identity slip" ranks near the top.
Thoroughly troubled by this, he decides to ask his group of fake buddies for help.
Buddy One: There's nothing a great detective can't do... Oh, never mind. I'm out.
Buddy Two: Whoa, Ryo, are you seriously planning to spend your whole life with that slug!?
Buddy Three: If your proposal fails, Mr. Ryo, why not come work for the Decay of Angels?
Hanyu Ryo: Actually, I wasn't even seriously asking. I just wanted to brag to you lifelong losers that I have an adorable boyfriend.
The Buddy Squad: ...You're so annoying. That flex hit me right in the feels.jpg
