TW abuse.
– Aura was not loved by his family – he was too quiet, too awkward. Aunt Kiyoko was the only one who showed him true kindness. Hence his devotion.
– When he was a child, he tried to beat up an adult CCG agent who made fun of Kiyoko for being a woman.
– Sometimes he thinks he’s useless unless he surpasses Kiyoko – but the thing is, he doesn’t want to surpass her. He wants to keep Kiyoko his idol. Even if it makes him worthless to his family and CCG.
– He has a tender side for Mutsuki because he remembers how his parents hurt him when he dressed up like a girl or played with dolls or anything gender-bending. And he hopes that by being kind to Mucchy, he’s being kind to his younger self.
– His inferiority complex cost him his first and only girlfriend in the academy. He’s still mopey about it, two years later.
– To have Aura fall in love with you, you’d need to give him lots of affection and encouragement, and it’d still be hard for him to believe you view him as worthy.
– Kiyoko is probably planning on convincing San-chan to attend therapy.
