+ erotic painter MC x promiscuous ML who gets more turned on when he sees MC's painting (or is it? ) is MC lowkey trapped within ML's command? yes... does it include SA? a handful... is it angsty? lowkey heart wrenching... do all characters need therapy? Absolutely!
+ okay so, ik this had a lot of morally wrong moments, but we cannot deny the fact that this story still had an engaging plot & poetic writing this is actually my 2nd reread, and this really is a classic :))
+ the pacing was good! i liked how even in the first chapters, we already got to see how ML was already attracted to MC. i love how both characters' backgrounds were fleshed out and their traumas were talked about—although, they were never truly addressed since this did happen back when therapy still wasn't a thing
+ i am in NO WAY romanticizing the SA & abuse MC went through, but ML's abusive tendencies made sense; not justifiable though !! i just think that his upbringing definitely had an impact which made me understand the complexity of his personality :))
+ do i think MC had stockholm syndrome? kind of... but i think his feelings genuinely grew as time progressed, especially when they got separated
+ we all saw how they slowly opened up to each other & how ML genuinely improved & worked on his temperament so that made me appreciate their relationship even more
+ i must admit, i have become really attached to the both of them as i was one of those readers who followed this when it was still in the earlier chapters (◞‸◟♡) i do think the art definitely carried this story but, i still believe the concept was unique & intriguing (◍•ᴗ•◍) manifesting for some sweet side stories because we Badly need to see more of their romantic moments
