But there are people like that, where gender doesn’t matter it’s who they form love for. There’s also trauma bonding, a lot of people would not end up with who there are with now, without trauma. You’re a whole different person if you never had the trauma who formed your personality. There’s plenty of stories where the sexualities are more concrete and not dynamic, but I don’t think we should not hate stories where it’s more fluid.
Sexuality is very fluid, in this story I see the 4th prince as a toxic possessive character, while Uriel seems to be yearning for affection. Even in the original version, I don’t think they were a good couple because the prince might just see Uriel as a possession, while Uriel needed protection. We know the prince is possessive of MC because he likes people who are “different” (common and annoying trope) but he probably did the same thing with Uriel. It wasn’t an equal or healthy relationship to begin with, so regardless of who Uriel ends with I hope it’s an actual loving person. I hope the author goes the route of Uriel falling in love with a non possessive man with the help of MC, and sees their relationship more as family than lovers.
All this to say, I don’t really care for this story because it’s not well written in many aspects, but a situation like this does happen a lot in life.
Also I’m not hating on your comment if it comes across like that, just didn’t want you to feel the ick when reading so it doesn’t ruin your experience.
I’ve read a lot of stories, even ones where it’s the reverse, and two men get together in the contexts after originally being in hetero relationships in the original stories. There’s good writing and bad writing but it’s fun all together! I see it as, if they get a loving healthy relationship at the end of it, it’s good
I just can't get over my ick at stories that try to suggest a character loving someone of the same gender is either due to trauma and/or can be completely changed if they're given a tiny bit of kindness
