IM SO MAD TO LIKE THE TYPICAL BLACK HAIRED DUKE IS ONCE AGAIN THE ML UGHHH
Meant thubs up lol ignore that thumbs down.
Ugh I wish she got with him tbh. I like his hair but I'll pretend if they were together he will let down that gorgeous hurrrrrrr
Haha all I can think of is why did the author write it like this?? Like, give us a reason to root for ml other than “oh, he knows her favorite flowers are freesias” like boohoo, and did he do shit about her actual problems? No. It was someone else??? I’m just so confused where the author is going with this story.
RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT LIKE WHAT THE HELL!!! i guess its to show that the rest of royal family is on her side but the author could easily show the duke taking on a more active role like he’s just on the sidelines all the time. there’s nothing wrong with passively supporting her but to earn the male lead status, at least be more proactive… idk
Yeah!!
Thank you, cause my heart is bleeding.
No but for real. A very long time ago blonde dudes were always the ML, but now it's black haired dudes. It's fucking annoying. They all have the same design too. I'm screaming with rage please someone end my suffering I can’t stand those black haired ML especially when they're dukes of the North or some other generic stupid shit. Is that all because of Jon Snow?? What's happening?? Please stop this epidemic
no fr like why can’t there be a balance or why can’t people pick a different hair colour there’s red, brown, green, blue, pink?? id love to see a pink haired ml????? i don’t even hate black haired mls there’s just SO MANY THAT FUCKING LOOK THE SAME… not only is it black hair but short and they have red eyes, they’re a duke, and you can bet they’re cold to everyone except the fl!!1! crtl c + crtl v
Pink hair is reserved to FL's brother LOL. I've seen too many pink haired brothers by now...
Although actually the ML of Let’s Hide My Younger Brother First does have pink hair if you're interested! The story is good too.
tysm
Reminder that love isn't determined by fixing all of someone's problems. The second prince is a PRINCE. He just happened to have a coma inducing potion around, how was the duke even supposed to compete with that? The second prince didn't visit her once during her coma, nor does he even bother offering her companionship and rarely does he offer her affection. Sure the duke hasn't magically solved all her problems, but he's been there for her every single day.
I have no problem with it of course. I’m just wondering from an author’s standpoint. The author can create any story they want of course, but if you want to create a story with an end couple in mind, why spend so much time showing off another male lead candidate character. Like, the actual male lead barely got a chapter with the fl, so you have a reason to root for them. It just seemed like a really weird way to move the plot along, from a narrative perspective.
As the author, they probably could’ve invented another mcguffin that the Duke’s son is directly involved with. Or, they could’ve made the Duke’s son more involved in the story, just like the Prince, so this disparity in their character isn’t so apparent. It just felt like they developed a second male lead’s character way before the actual male lead’s, so it feels weird from a narrative standpoint that we as readers should root for the real male lead.
They basically gave the second male lead the real male lead treatment and that just baffles me from a storytelling perspective, since even the real male lead’s hasn’t gotten that treatment yet.
You're not wrong, but love is also not determined by how much time does someone spend for you. In the sense that just because be came to visit her, even if he visited everyday, that's something a friend could have done. Sometimes to fall in love it's just a random spark between people. That's why knowing someone for a long time doesn’t mean you'll love them romantically. That's also why I don't really like the black haired dude because she never even wavered for him in the past, and now she will because... He visited her and knows some of her likes.
Anyway ultimately though both options are shallow.
i’m just tired of black haired dukes tbh
This is so valid honestly
That's also true honestly, in the few chapters presented no deep romantic relationships have really had time to form. Especially because the main character spent two months in a coma
Honestly that's very true. I feel also that because the main character, despite beginning to change this habit, mostly lets things get done to her instead of being the one doing things, it ends up being hard to really watch her develop a relationship with anyone. A lot of the things she's said so far have just been her appreciating being cared about in general or her being like "oh these people want something from me so I should just give it to them." If I were her I wouldn't want another romantic anything for a long time. I'd be focused on living life on my own for me
Yeah, I was just confused from a narrative standpoint cause I have no idea what the fuck the author was doing with the actual romance plot line XD
Bro, based off the cover, how is the Duke guy the ml when the second prince literally was the one that has been supporting mc and even gave her the chance to be recognized for her work?? Like, I’m not too big a fan of Jake’s character design(it’s the hair), but even I’m like, get with him! WTF!!
