yk i used to love ash, but he can’t keep using sex as punishment. you can’t drag your partner to a sex shop and embarrass them, and then take them home and engage in light bdsm that they aren’t experienced with. and he’s not even explaining what he’s gonna do to lyle, hes just doing as he pleases, while lyle is still incredibly insecure and in his head overthinking everything. yeah, i agree lyle needs to work on his communication skills but it also needs to be noted that lyle didnt exactly grow up in a loving or healthy environment. he’s used to being used a pawn and forced to do things he doesn’t wanna do, all the while keeping his thoughts to himself. it’s destructive behaviour that he needs to unlearn to better his life, but it’s something ingrained in him since a very, very young child so change cant happen overnight and ash cant be weaponising sex against him all bc lyle is keeping a secret.
