I really adore characters who are desperate for approval and insult themselves and find someone who will genuinely stop them from insulting themselves and protect them and teach them to be kind of themselves.
It doesn't happen often, sadly, it mostly just turns into teasing that reinforces their own thinking about themselves but framed differently and this is absolutely that but it's better than it could have been.
MAME has never written a relationship like this even though she has come so close. But somehow, it never fully turns into reassurance, it's just that they don't care they're dumb... not that they're not dumb.
And that's why I enjoy them but never totally adore them, in the end.
Basically, I want more SkyJao in my life.
