THAT IS THE REASON WHY THINGS SHOULDVE BEEN DIFFERENT! This was the defining moment coz wdym he realizes his feelings for Dan and his coming back to the MMA scene against the main antagonist of this arc??? Whatever his redemption could culminate should've been present and palpable at this very moment. But no. nothing changed. we could get all the foreplay we want but it's not enough to justify any progress he made all these past chapters.
Bro's an animal in heat since the start of the series we thought it'd be different this time since hes trying to change for Dan's sake ...were not complaining about them having sex but the way he did it ,like he always does ,just pouncingon him AGAIN,could've asked for consent with some passionate pecks and kisses ,we deserve to hear Dan say "Yes" to having sex with him without being forced to it

i get that people are disappointed for this chapter but let's not forget this is his jinx and it's a BIG DEAL MATCH.
