Oh my God. I couldn't quite believe myself, that I was clicking on a Ryo/Junno fic, but I am so glad I did because this is fucking golden. That was the best characterization of Junno I have ever read -- nuanced and poignant, with that ever-effacing cheerful, but that harsh side... absolutely beautiful. Your Ryo was excellent, too -- brash and cocky and arrogant, but with just enough self-doubt to make him likeable.
I don't know how much research you did for this fic, but it felt extremely well crafted, the whole seedy Yakuza underworld you created. The hints you kept dropping left me wanting more and more, although this story stands beautifully by itself.
There aren't enough fics like this in JE fandom. Thank you for writing a true gem.
