"we never said we weren't gonna do anything - we just meant we'd go with whatever you guys decided"
I get he was trying to be nice, but that's literally not doing anything aha, what a fake ass apology lol.
What a whole mood. I honestly hate people who expect to just ride off your work the most in group projects.
For sure. I remember an assignment I had in second year. We divided up the tasks - and we had this one super silent meek girl who said nothing the entire time. All she literally had to do was find a couple references to back up an aspect of our experiment.
She comes back two days later and says "oh guys, I've looked for AGES and I literally can't find one thing". Took me 10 minutes on a google scholar search. Sure gal, you do you. (▰˘◡˘▰)
Ugh noooo. I had people last semester who didn't work on the project until the night before and then just copy-pasted shit without even citing it :/ I had to spend three hours citing it myself because they conveniently cleared their browser history and tried to pass it off as their own work
Wtf! Could you imagine being such a loser you literally couldn't put together a couple citations and a reference list lmao.
hope you crucified them in your peer review xxx
I did I got the Best grades in the group project! But it was the worst thing in my life. I wish teachers/professors would stop giving them honestly.
Guys, he took an inhibitor so I don't think he's gonna get pregnant.
Also lmao that ongoing narration was such a mood.
The inhibitor prevents him from going into heat, it isn't a contraceptive. Hopefully he was in his right mind to put a condom on Tae...hard to tell with lightsaber dicks tho
Ah, I was under the impression that one would need to be in heat to get pregnant.
Most often that’s true, but it depends on the author. We don’t know if it’s a requirement here or not. As far as condom use use goes, it looked pretty obvious to me that either they didn’t use one or it failed due to the knotting.
In most omegaverse if the omega is in heat then pregnancy from unsafe sex with an alpha is 100% guaranteed....they never say what the odds are outside of their heat which is why doyun took the inhibitor. The knotting occurs at the base of the penis so a condom would still be effective as a contraceptive. Anyway it hasn't been a month for these guys, it would be cruel to have impreg at this point. Imho
I also don’t want a pregnancy for them right now, but any condom that *may* have been present (but probably wasn’t) definitely did not work here.
Oh man, that's really poignant. I think I watched AI for the first time around the same age as Taehyun, I remember the way I cried. I'm not adopted - but I can see the parallels of not being the 'real' child. Kudos to the author for that, a small but really meaningful detail.
I also don't really (but do?) understand the actions of his aunt and mother - grief is an awful and terrible thing. But it seems very extreme to place the blame on a really young child.
It's a bit of a slippery slope "if you hadn't of ran away she wouldn't have got hit'. But if she'd looked before she crossed the road...or if the motorbike had slowed down. Or idk, Taehyun had gotten consoled rather than slapped for some pretty valid emotions?
(I posted this in reply to a comment - but hope it helps clear up some confusion).
The setting of this story is a world where nobody can lie. Our MC Saegye is what we call a 'Dare' a person who can lie, but it hurts when he does it. The existence of Dares isn't really widely known - so Saegye is keeping it a secret. We also find out that Saegye experiences abuse at home from his dad who constantly accuses him of lying about everything.
In comes Jinsol, who says a lot of enigmatic and mysterious things to Saegye. He also continuously hints that he knows about Dares and is super sweet and kind to Saegye, even going so far to say he loves him. But it's all a bit weird because even though Jinsol says that, Saegye walks in on him kissing a boy that Saegye used to like.
Saegye then thinks that Jinsol is also possibly a Dare, but when he checks (your status as a Truth or Dare is marked on your tongue with a letter) he's wrong. But it's all a bit sus and mysterious, because of Jinsol's strange actions vs words.
But Jinsol continuously says he loves Saegye, and since he appears to be a Truth Saegye connects with him and starts to develop feelings of love. He essentially thinks he's found that one person in the world who understands him as a Dare.
Fast forward to the now and the last couple chapters, it's been revealed that Jinsol is neither a Truth nor a Dare. But rather what we call a 'False', someone who can ONLY tell lies. Turns out he's able to swap his ability with someone through kissing them (this is how he "proved" he was a Truth to Saegye - by kissing that other boy and temporarily swapping their abilities).
In a shocker, Jinsol then betrays Saegye, and through a kiss, is able to swap their abilities around. Therefore Jinsol is now able to both tell the truth and lie and Saegye is now stuck with only being able to lie. Saegye is shocked and betrayed, thinking he had found someone who loved him.
After this Saegye then finds Jinsol's diary, which helps explain his backstory. We find out that Jinsol lives with his sister and their abusive father. On top of that, his sister is being stalked and harassed, with it getting worse as times goes on. But he can't do anything (E.g., go the police) because he's only able to lie. Also, their mum is out of the picture, so no help there. And their dad is awful to his sister.
He then develops this plan, where he finds a Dare (Saegye) to steal their ability to then essentially kill their father by burning down the house. He's then able to get away with it because he'll be able to tell lies, getting him and his sister to safety. He'll then also to deal with his sister's stalker. So as of now - he's pulled off this plan. While he admits to himself it sucks and he feels bad for Saegye, he'd do it all again if he had to.
The big kicker is he DOES have feelings for Saegye. Who is now himself trying to follow Jinsol and find out the real truth. Leading us to NOW, the present chapter.
Anyway, I missed a couple of things out but this is the main stuff. Hope it helped!
Also, keep in mind this is an overall summary. I've missed some plot points out - but they essentially just strengthen the overall themes of the story.
**recent chapter discussion**
In the scene in the cave, I think the baby dragon (sorry, mind blanked on characters names!) is seeing a vision of the prince in the past?
But when that prophecy is being said....is it that witch lady/priestess saying it or is it the prince who's declaring that? Or am I just off entirely haha, could someone explain I'm confused.
Like, is it the prince who's said that prophecy about Rahan and therefore it's implying he's got selfish intentions - alluding to what he said about wanting power more for his 'own gain'.
That's so hurtful to watch. These poor kids are truly victims of their circumstances huh. Poor Saegye, to think he found had someone he loved and had a true connection with, only to be deeply betrayed.
Up to chapter 25!! Just a little thought process...
Whilst I understand he was hurt in the past, he is jumping to some pretty WILD conclusions pretty fucking fast? It just seems really exhausting to base entirely made-up situations in his head without ever doubting himself or double-checking even the most basic facts (E.g., lets this dude he likes touch his penis NAKED but not ask if he's gay or even interested in him?) Also "this is why bi people are scary..." errrrr, you've slept with multiple people throughout this story, what a hurtful thing to say?
I have a couple of friends like that - the entire lack of reasonable questioning to what they perceive a situation is, and it's genuinely a hurtful trait to those around you. It's not conducive to healthy relationships at all, romantic or otherwise. And it sucks, cause he's nice.
That gave me a twinge in the heart, what a super wholesome (and very cleverly done may I add!) ending.
sorry for thumbs down
"Your drawing is so good that an asteroid could crash in to me. TT TT An asteroid about 10 cm in diameter would burn into the atmosphere but I would be destroyed before that...it's hard to break a person's knee...but an earthquake"
If that doesn't perfectly represent chaotic vibe of the story idk what does haha
actual screamed at The Shining meme face hahaha
