i love this manhwa so much i can’t even begin to explain it. it depicts toxic relationships so well— not just the commonly seen “i accidentally dated a horrible person and didn’t realize it until it was too late” trope, but actually showing what it’s like to date a good person who genuinely loves you, but then makes the wrong choices and destroys themself in the process.

gunner could have made better choices— but his feelings of inferiority and self-deprecation led him down a dark path and he led himself to becoming a shitty person. he doesn’t take accountability and blames his actions on his past and possessiveness, rather than his own selfish greed and self-pity.

i’m proud of theo for finally accepting this fact and wanting to move on with his life— it’s easier to recognize this sort of thing if they were a bad person from the beginning, but when you hold so many fond memories from when they were a good person and they had such a deeply intertwined bond with you? i can’t even begin to imagine how much that must hurt like a bitch.
