like it's the way suah just wants things to be like how they were when they were kids. he just wants to stay by juhyeok's side!!!! and he did nothing to be pushed away except present as an alpha - something completely out of his control - and juhyeok knows this better than anyone, that you don't get to choose what u present as, yet he STILL ruthlessly ripped their bond away, and abandoned suah from the jump. again i'm not saying the stalking and esp sa is right, but even before all that juhyeok was a TERRIBLE friend??? throwing the flowers in suah's face after ghosting him for who knows how long. like i get it presenting as an omega sucks, but it hurts knowing that if suah AT ALL had a choice, he would have chosen to be an omega bc he just wants juhyeok to love and protect him like he said he would!!!!! if he could give juhyeok his dom alpha gene HE LITERALLY WOULD. and it's DUMB that juhyeok only treasured him when he thought suah would be an omega and him an alpha. like thats a YOU problem bro
and to END bc ik some ppl gonna be stupid juhyeok is still a victim (just an unlikable one to me lmfao) and suah did still stalk and sa him and that was wrong. regardless, i sympathize w suah bc he was just a pup when he fell in love with juhyeok, who stuck to him like glue and was so kind and close to him. all he did was present as an alpha and that was enough for him to get shut out and thrown away bc of the mc's own personal projections and traumas. it's SAD
like juhyeok lowkey gave suah dysphoria and image issues bc suah being devastated that he presented as an alpha and crouching himself to be smaller bc he wanted to be desirable in juhyeok's eyes AND HE WAS JUST A BABY HERE STILL MIND U!!!! omg someone kill me
ngl suah saying all those promises “across the years” was when they were like 7 years old. they were children and it was a promise they made before they knew about how the world worked, i can’t really fault suah for not keeping a promise he made when he was so young. i get what you’re saying tho, they’re really cute, i honestly think a part of it is on juhyeok to move on from their childhood promises. they’re adults now, he can’t really hold him to the promises he made as a child
Juhyeok was not just a terrible but completely garbage friend after presenting, I won’t defend any of that. But honestly I don’t think Juhyeok treasured Suah solely just because he thought Suah would present as an omega? But that’s not the main thing I wanted to comment on so I won’t dive too much into this.
I feel like what Suah failed to do was give Juhyeok space to be honest. Juhyeok could not comprehend neither accept his secondary gender and that’s when it all spiralled down to a shit show. From there on Juhyeok really just wanted to get the fk away from Suah whereas Suah’s desperation drove him to do crazy things. Of course Suah’s actions also stem from his desire to protect Juhyeok and his love for Juhyeok but it went out of control.
But of course there’s also the scenario that if Suah were to give Juhyeok space nothing would’ve changed because Juhyeok has his ego and insecurities in the way.. I feel like I’ve been replying to a lot of the comments bashing Juhyeok so much I fail to convey my main point which is that both sides are sad and painful to watch. Yes Juhyeok was rubbish to Suah when they were young but after growing up Suah used the wrong methods to project Juhyeok.
Also, both sides have their own traumas/insecurities and whatever else you wanna name. If Juhyeok’s response to the “omega” title is to shut Suah out then what can we say? Suah served as constant reminder that Juhyeok is an “omega”, something he absolutely didn’t want, never imagined to be. Gentle reminder that Juhyeok was also a baby at this time.
This sht became sooo damn long but to summaries basically both sides are sad as fk and they’re honestly better off never meeting each other you know ;-; Suah should’ve met a hot and buff as fk
Omega who would love to be showered with his affection and Juhyeok… Well he needs to accept his secondary gender and work on his insecurities before we even discuss anything after that
juhyeok is not a good person ngl like i understand his personal trauma not wanting to present as an omega but telling suah MULTIPLE TIMES over the years esp when they were babies that he would marry and mate suah and always be there to protect him, hammering that idea in and taking this poor baby under his wing.......and then completely abandoning not just his promised mate but arguably his BEST FRIEND simply bc that friend presented as an alpha???? just. diabolical. idk what the word for him is bc its not homophobic but god is he narrow minded
like did all that time they spent together mean nothing??? he only liked suah bc he thought he was gonna be a pretty omega??? ik this also overlaps w his own gender dysphoria but cmon man......it's crazy that just bc suah's an alpha, it erased YEARS of memories. he just feels so mfing shallow
ofc what suah did in response isn't right like that's stalking and sa 100% but just think abt how trauma bonded he is to juhyeok who constantly saved and protected him after he was assaulted and bullied and promised they would be mates :( look at the lengths suah was willing to go just to protect the flower crown juhyeok made for him!!!!! he latched onto juhyeok from the time they were just pups and his love is so pure idc i can't hate him....he was just a baby ): LIKE JUST SEEING HOW DISTRAUGHT AND HEARTBROKEN suah was bc he presented as a dom alpha???? he KNEW juhyeok was narrow minded as hell and wouldn't want him if he wasn't an omega. that's just idk it's so?? sad???
like suah's love is at least TRUE......he loves juhyeok in all forms and just wants to be what juhyeok wants, but juhyeok only saw a future for them if they were pigeonholed into certain gender roles and thats just so fcked up idk. seeing suah crouch and try to make himself smaller bc he didnt want juhyeok to see that he was taller, bc he just wanted juhyeok to be by his side and keep protecting him......and he knew juhyeok wouldn't if he was alpha.....like ow??? ow.
and then seeing the mc use him for sex and kick him to the curb right after he's done using him oml i'm just sad.......ik juhyeok will prob wake up and develop feelings when he accepts his second gender but atp i just feel so sad for both....
