re: diversity, the characters are textually diverse, but it's one of those situations where functionally they all feel very white. it didn't really bother me, and the main pairing is queer, but it's one of those hard to quantify situations.

i really enjoyed this, though! it was a bit lighter and more fun than dry, which i read last year, because it's happening post-disaster, but the two are pretty similar.
