Spoilers hurt my soul so I can't get how people look for them so willingly (':
Said that, I hate most of bls because of how lightly they take serious real problems, and sexualize/romanticize them. I don't know how much of spoilers you've read so far but I guarantee you this is an absolute masterpiece. Sexual violence is not a thing here, and the psychological aspect is so well done, so delicate and complex at the same time, that you're side by side with the rollercoaster MC is going through. The ending is like nothing I've read so far. I think of this story all the time, so I absolutely recommend it<3 I hope you can read it chapter by chapter from.now on
wait wdym sexual violence is not a thing??
I read it a while ago but I'm pretty sure they were both pretty much into it for a change. The story is so fucked up (and I loved it for that) and their mental health is as fucked up, but given the plot it could've turned really nasty in the worst possible way by using the usual rape tropes. And it hadn't. So no, I don't think sexual violence is a thing here
the mc was literally kidnapped and manipulated what are you saying
We already stated that this story is fucked up. And it doesn't include sexual violence. I don't know if you finished it, but both things can coexist.
I'm pretty sensitive with that topic and I don't think it's included here, and that's one of the reasons why this is my favorite psychological thriller. But it's okay if you think otherwise
i skipped a big bunch (jumped from ch. 11 to 42-45), just so i can know if this would prove to be worth my time of not reading another Stockholm syndrome. but boyyy

spoilers ahead based from what I've gathered in the comments

i was pissed off that they ended up together by ch 45 since i really appreciated of the genuine emotions MC displayed from chapters 1-11, he showed fear and realized the despair that his protag in his webcomic may have felt. i genuinely thought this would be a nice depiction of the terrors being locked against your will. i was about to drop it when i read the spoilers and I'm glad it's not going to that routeeee. kinda reminds me of My Deepest Secret
