The fact of the matter is, Shane DOES control Seoha's behavior in a way that is unwanted and overwhelming. He has touched him in ways that violate his consent, sexual or otherwise. He has repeatedly expressed entitlement to Seoha that is more akin to a toy than anything else.
Understanding the nuances of the story is not mutually exclusive with thinking that Shane is behaving like a sheltered rapey asshole. Trying to boil these feelings down to shoddy reading comprehension on the part of readers who express rightful disgust of this behavior is...ehhh.
1. I was pointing out things that ya'll were stating that were untrue or that ya'll might've missed.
2. I was explaining Shane's obsession with wanting to touch Seoha's/Hearth's bare hands, "excusing" him for molestation.
3. You are once again proving my point that most of ya'll can't read if all you got out of my post was something I never said. It was a breakdown of key points that you guys missed. I never ONCE excused Shane's actions and only explained the meanings behind Seoha's trauma and Shane's fixations.
4. Shane still doesn't have a magic power in his voice and if anything ya'll should be blaming Hearth for the way Seoha reacts seeing as it's his fucking soul that makes him subject to Shane lol Siren doesn't have the same reaction when given commands. They just simply enthusiastically abide by them of their own will. Thus proving my point aaaaall over again.
Not excusing Shane's actions* my tablet is doin' me dirty tonight
Just totally agree. I couldn't keep going since ch 7, It just make me so angry that this mtf bird keeps putting his needs in this traumatized boy. I hate this type of narrative
Shane doesn't have some sort of super power in his voice, Seoha reacts the way he does 'cause he was once his servant that literally devoted his life to him. Hearth didn't even try to refute the fact that he had merely scratched Shane and accepted his punishment.
The thing with the gloves is due to his trauma of harming Shane, the one person he swore to never touch with his bare hands to avoid harming him. The trauma has probably compounded with the accident that caused his sister's leg scar, but that's it. There's nothing else other than that with the gloves.
Lastly, Shane's obsession with touching Seoha's/Hearth's bare hands stems from a fixation he developed as a child. He's clearly adored Seoha/Hearth this entire time, and I can only speculate those feelings have grown into adulthood. I don't think he's realized that Seoha now has a trauma from his past life as Hearth, he just thinks that even now that they are both adults Hearth still refuses to touch him. He's basically throwing a fit 'cause the person he loves and clearly handled him with care and devotion ((Hearth)) still won't touch him.
It clearly affects him greatly that Hearth still has not returned nor will he actually touch him. Not making excuses btw just pointing out the obvious shit that people can't seem to actually read.
That's it. That's the story so far.
