How to Raise a Gloomy Little Beauty

[About the protagonist downloading the wrong social app and ending up on some niche app]

The protagonist has severe social anxiety due to certain circumstances, feels unloved, and suffers from depression.

He avoids socializing and barely speaks to his roommates, but his mental state keeps getting worse.

To save himself, he starts chatting with people online.

That person is very gentle, but... a little strange.

They always call him Kitty and tell him he's good, ask him to do strange things, and often send him pretty accessories as rewards.

The first time they have a voice call, the protagonist's heart skips a beat.

"Have you been taking your medicine like a good boy?"

The voice is gentle, but also a little forceful.

"Mm," the protagonist replies quietly.

"Speak up."

"Mm," he says, still in a small voice.

"..." The other person falls silent, then says with a smile, "Good boy."

When they finally meet, the protagonist discovers that the person is his mild-mannered roommate, Roommate A.

The protagonist feels a little awkward, but also grateful. "Thank you for helping me. I was... in a lot of pain back then."

Roommate A smiles softly. "It's normal to feel pain."

The protagonist says, "I know it's normal... but..."

Roommate A: "It's less painful when you're together."

The protagonist nods. "I think so too."

Roommate A: "Then shall we try being together?"

The protagonist is a little shy, but a few days later, he agrees.

The love interest has a bit of a niche kink.

He likes the idea of "raising" a partner, rescuing a broken, pitiful darling and giving them a little discipline when needed.

But he's never been in a relationship before.

On his first day of college, he decides to stop repressing himself and find a partner.

So he downloads an app and sends a friend request to the person closest to him.

The voice is soft and pleasant.

So well-behaved.

The love interest is practically melting from cuteness, but as he listens to that voice, all he can picture is the lovely face of his antisocial roommate.

Later, he notices that the gifts he sent keep appearing on his little roommate, one after another.

The love interest: "..."

Ah.

Either way, it's actually kind of satisfying. His roommate is so pretty, and he likes that.

But it's also a bit of a problem.

As someone with a niche kink, he can't bring himself to be harsh with his roommate.

He's so cute and pitiful. All he wants to do is take good care of him.

But will that be enough for the other person? And won't he spoil him?

So the love interest is constantly torn. Sometimes he sternly tells the protagonist to take his medicine, and sometimes he praises him tenderly. Every time he sees the protagonist holding his phone and smiling faintly, his heart melts into a puddle of sugar water.

Too cute, my darling.

The day they meet will be the most satisfying day of his life.

He has everything prepared: the equipment, the money. He'll let the other person check his finances, and he's confident he'll be chosen.

Yep, he gets chosen.

And the love interest continues his blissfully conflicted life: Ah, so good, so good. I can't bring myself to scold him. No, I have to criticize him. But he's so pretty. He skipped his medicine, so I should spank him. But I can't bring myself to do it. Don't cry, you poor thing.

Until he discovers that his little roommate doesn't have that kink at all. He simply downloaded the wrong app.

The love interest: "..."

Later, the protagonist's depression improves, and he finds love, but he still thinks the love interest is a little strange.

Especially in bed.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as they're happy :D

* The protagonist doesn't know how beautiful he is
