I honestly don't care If he did to the end or not. He tried to force himself on a child. The fact that they will end up together is plainly disgusting. The fact that he blamed a child for the attempted rape is disgusting. I can accept that people have rape-kinks and such, but this shit is excusing a pedo with the "he was just so in love UWu" bullshit. No way in hell. No fucking child should be seen in a sexual way
Uh it gave the kid trauma to the point where he couldn’t remember his childhood and he could only remember when he tried to rape him? but sure, he’s still better than a rapist-
Rape isn’t just about when they forcibly “enter” the victim, the physical and psychological trauma, and disabilities that could potentially be caused are serious. Just because he didn’t actually “rape” him, doesn’t mean he’s still better than a rapist, because either way he caused harm to the victim.

awww yess poor piece of trash... Let's sympathise with a rapist of a 12 year old, that's a great idea for the author apparently.
Disgusting, that's all i'm going to say.
