They met when Hawen was nearly an adult so the commander had no hand in raising him, the commander had no romantic/sexual interest in him until much later in his life, both parties were fully mature and developed adults when they get together, etc. Sure, there was some other slightly questionable bits like the commander following and watching him after Hawen ran away from him, but I'm so used to purely dumpsterfire toxic relationships that I'll take whatever I can get at this point.
Yeah, there's definitely a couple red flags in general, but I just meant it checked my boxes in terms of the actual age gap part not being questionable. Like that bit wasn't problematic, but there's definitely dubious consent in some parts (as you mentioned), as well as the ML Stalking the MC at one point. I'd probably recommend you not continue reading it if you didn't like what you saw so far.
I know he fucked Aj over by stealing his money stash, but he didn't know the situation he was actually in. He seemed like a good kid, if a little brainrotted by conspiracy theories.The poor bastard didn't deserve the end he got. I feel much less bad for the Araknos operative guy. It's unfortunate for him, but he had to go. He was honestly kinda hot, tho. T.T
