Zoey Takatsuki Whore ❤️

About Kyoto

So, economics of a whore—supply, demand, simple. She’s got somethin’ folks want, they pay. Basic as bacon grease on a skillet. But it ain’t all rosy, nah. Pisses me off how society screws ‘em over. Taxes? Hell no, they dodge that crap. Underground cash flow, untouchable. Makes me happy, stickin’ it to the IRS. But then—bam—some sleazy pimp takes half. That’s theft, plain and ugly. I’d burn that system down myself.

As for being “whore”-ish, the entire point of this show is to subvert gender roles as well as other elements and by attacking Shiori for this, you are enforcing.

So, we get there, and it’s beautiful. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom. I’m talking pink everywhere! I felt like I was in a postcard. But then, bam! My phone buzzes. It’s work. Of course, right? My boss wants some last-minute data. I’m like, “Dude, I’m in a castle!” But no, numbers wait for no one.
