Review:
Hiruma and Mamori have been dating, in their fashion. But now Mamori's father is home from business, and everything changes.

I worried that this was going to have a sad ending, but I should have looked closer at the title. The relationship, and the two people in it, do undergo that precise cycle - and they come back stronger for it. Good characterization, and I liked the fleshing-out that Mamori's mother received. (Her father was fleshed out too, but to be an asshat - so I don't like him, but it's for the right reasons.) I don't look for Hiruma/Mamori, but I'm glad to have found one this good.
