I seriously cannot get over the sheer momisaku of this chapter??? Like??
The way it opens with their wet footprints side by side? The way Momiji gently bullies Sakura into taking care of himself? The way Sakura makes the shocked pikachu face every time, but still just... goes along with it? The way Momijikawa stops in his tracks when he sees Sakura practically swimming in his clothes? The way he can't seem to resist teasing Sakura for every little thing, but he's smiling and at ease the whole time? The way Sakura goes out of his way to respect Momijikawa's family, despite never having met them? The way Sakura's face lights up at the sight of a home-cooked meal, and the quiet little smile from Momiji at how happy he is to not be eating alone?
The way Sakura is impressed by every! little! thing! about Momijikawa -- the way he cooks, the way he organizes his cabinets so neatly, the way his LAUNDRY smells????
The constant little blush on Momiji's face while Sakura gushes about his food, and the way he invites Sakura over as soon as he realizes he lives alone too, because he knows how lonely it is? The way Sakura makes him laugh so easily, when for as long as we've known Momijikawa, he's felt angry and grief-stricken and alone?
The way it zooms out at the end and lets us see them together, at home, when we know now that Sakura has spent his entire life on the outside looking in?
Like??? How am I supposed to be normal about any of this??
