Before I say anything I totally respect your opinion. Of course I don’t know anything either yet, so far its been closer to pwp than anything. But what I think is the route this story is taking is that seme has this bdsm vision with uke. Uke only sleeps around bc he has trauma related to his bondage fetish (I assume his boyfriend didn’t listen to him and was way too rough making him not want to be open about his fetish and ruining his trust in ppl), so the seme is attracted to the uke but if he wants his vision to come true he’s going to have to work through the uke’s trauma together, teaching him that he can both trust people and be open about his fetish. I like that the uke isn’t your typical submissive type. Playboy x innocent puppy I think isn’t tooooooooo common in the yaoi world......or usually the roles are flipped where the seme plays around too much and the uke is an innocent puppy.
Personally I think they have good chemistry bc the puppy seme can help the uke work through his trauma with the power of being a decent human being lol
i know it's early to judge but i'm currently nOT liVING for this uke (￣∇￣"), it's hot but i really barely see chemistry and possibility that this will blossom to romance
