### Summary
The dynamic between Rafael and Dante shifts as Rafael introduces a new rule: no sexual intimacy until Dante officially agrees to date him. This chapter appears to follow the two on an outing, where Dante is now actively rejecting Rafael's attempts at even minor physical affection, such as a kiss or a hug. The majority of reader response is overwhelmingly supportive of Rafael, whom they describe as an "adorable puppy," a "little sunflower," and a definitive "green flag." Fans are urging the "meanie captain" to give in, observing that Dante's resolve is weakening and he is "folding under minimal pressure." While the prevailing sentiment is positive, with many praising the cute chibi art, the dissenting opinion that Rafael's persistence is "annoying" continues to surface. The central tension revolves around Rafael's calculated withdrawal of intimacy, a tactic that is effectively wearing down Dante's long-held rule against dating recruits.
