How did I get to this point, damn? Everytime I read BL, I think the bottom is my fav of all time but the moment Dohyeok appeared, he knocks them all out of the park. He meets all the requirements I never knew I was looking for when it comes to my type of uke.
Dohyeok is just so, so cute, especially when it comes to his interactions with Siwoo where his tsun side his dialed up ten-fold. When he drowns in jealously and tries not to subtly show it or when he's throwing empty threats is super adorable.
And when he was gangraped but he's still trying to put on a strong front like that trauma didn't phase him but he finds solace with Siwoo's presence is just so... HNNNNGGG!!!
Side note, that one scene where he's cornered in the men's stall was so hot. I feel bad for my boy but phew.
I don't care what anyone says, Siwoo seems to care a bit for Dohyeok and Dohyeok seems to like Siwoo which is enough for me. I hope they get their happy ending.

if i could upvote this 10000000000000000000%...that special brand of assholery, arrogance, but strange cuteness when he's vulnerable against his will, his sensuality but being an ACTUAL strong domineering character...idkidk he hits my checklist like no one else (and also my kinks omg i want to put him over my knee). there's no one else like him????

Dohyeok doesn't have me fooled.
- Uses threats to try to keep Siwoo by his side
- Constantly asking how far Siwoo's gone with any guy within 1meter of his vicinity cause he's jealous
- Calls Siwoo when he's feeling vulnerable cause he feels safe with him without knowing
- "Investigating" Siwoo's background cause he's interested in him as a person
Dohyeok be more honest!

Art was great, story was nice though I wish the seme suffered a little more haha.
@ the readers whining about the rape
If you can't handle reading fiction without it affecting your moral values, you shouldn't be allowed to consume fiction let alone be old enough to read BL. It's common sense to know what's right and wrong, but it seems some readers just lack that ability.

Sound like you enjoy it to me like oh it's fine to like rape fiction as long as it's not in real life like not liking how it's normalised in bl an seeing it and how much it shows up is fucking NORMAL please seek help you messed up mf also where do you get off telling people they are and aren't old enough to be reading bl it seems your the one who need to grow up so not liking rape makes you immature be fucking forreal it's giving fetishiser

Not to mention it's not about messing up your moral values it's about not wanting to see or read something so horrible and like a normal person being upset or disturbed from seeing something like that but unfortunately every manga you go to nowadays has it because it's beeing sooo normalised and yes it's their choice to read it but that doesn't mean they can't be upset especially when they aren't expecting rape literally in every chapter plus a shitty end

And last thing it's normal to complain or express dislike or as you said "whine" about there being rape because guess what it's not something you should think is okay or normal or enjoy liiiike regardless of if it's in fiction which you clearly do since people disliking rape bothers you so much which is weird as hellll anyways have a great day xxx

Westerners who can't separate reality and fiction and reads for free: *whines about rape for the millionth time instead of moving on to read stories they actually enjoy*
Japanese readers that buy the book to support the author: Praises how nice the art is. Some finds the characters cute and some finds valid and polite critism with "not my taste but I gave it a try"

Burn them w/ til the last fucking drop. Since like let's say ten, fifteen ppl come at your for YOUR OWN comment. When they could just make their OWN comment. 10 against one ain't fair. So the fight gotta be STRONGER. Plus, they're attacking your morals because APPARENTLY THEY THINK REAL LIFE MORALS CARRIES OVER INTO FICTION. Gets All-sel-righteous and some how THEY THEMSELVES don't see that this is fiction and our values irl does not carry over into fiction and vice versa. So yes, the argument that this is fiction still stands. What dumb asses.

Excuse me but WHO ARE YOU to be judging other ppl on what they LIKE or DON'T like. Wtf are you DOING ON THIS SITE AND READING THE VERY SAME THING YOU'RE HYPOCRITICALLY WAXING AHOUT?!? AND NO. IT DOES NOT "FETISHIZES gay ppl". Since WHEN did yaoi fetishes gay ppl?!? HOW did you EVER COME to THAT conclusion?!? If you're gay and you read straight romance fiction does that make you a "fetishizer of straight ppl"?!? Are you DELUSIONAL or WHAT?!?

@Tenmanyashiki - I am Asian but live in the West. I respectfully disagree about the Westerner/Easterner bias. And no, not everyone, including myself, does NOT support the authors. A few things here. First of all, authors write for themselves. It's a work of art. And secondly, though-by-no-means ANY LESS, as a means of living, whether as a primary or secondary source of income. If the former, then the audience is whomever likes such things and won't complain about them. <<<--- so creativity for self. The latter are the ones that likes them and will buy them to support the author. <<<--- creativity for others (for the purpose of supporting oneself) OR as a byproduct of creativity for self that is ALSO enjoyable for others that they will support the work whether by reading for free or actively contributing to the creators credit. Or for me, I don't like it, but I read if I can stomach it. It also depends on how well it's done and how much of the r**e aspect is carried out. By that I mean if it's done in a way that is too distastefull or too cruel to stomach, then I will stop reading or supporting the author. So there are ppl who are ok with it (to some degree) who don't say anything. Then there are those who enjoy and support the work or cries for more. I don't like it but I won't get all upset about it - ofc within reason as stated above. And then there are those STRANGE creatures who CRIES about it and denounces it as if ppl who DO enjoy them are amoralists. That just BLOWS my MIND.
And for those who responded to me. You know who you are. The self-righteous criers and denouncers, who camp here week after week thinking they do good deeds by railing against the works as if it's their GREAT LIFE purpose. . Get a life. Rape is distasteful, but why do ppl's tastes affect you so much?!? It's not your cup-of-tea so why are you READING IT?!? You're secretly enjoying this aren't you?!? Why ELSE would you be reading it?!? Blows my mind. I mean if you don't like yaoi don't read it?!? If you don't like rape, don't read it?!? And as many ppl have pointed out, there's plenty of r**e in straight romances too. How are you not bringing THAT up?!? Morally self-righteous assholes should get off this site. Seriously.

Porn can or cannot be romance depending on what was written into it. Porn w/ plot (as some ppl have said). Or porn without plot. Romance can have a lot of explicit scenes. Adult content. Or it can be Shounen Ai, or adult content with censored aspects of porn or sex scenes. If you believe yaoi is just purely porn, then that's all on you. Yaoi is more explicit and involves sex scenes. Some story dwells on it and others focus more on the story.

I correct myself. Romance isn't all about fluff. It can be psychological manipulations too. If there is no physical coercion there can be blackmail or putting ppl down. A different kind of manipulation. Of the mind rather than the body. But yes, romance can include sex scenes. Idk what you're reading. But the lines between love making and rape is a fine line. And how much sex is a focus of the story.
I really love that Avald didn't let his jealousy take over and hit Banys before assessing the situation instead of making his own conclusions.
Also I loooove the threesome fan service. If Lute didn't end with Avald, I'd be fine if he ended with Banys. It's also pretty obvious it's the drugs talking. This is a fantasy fiction in a BL world. What do people expect lmao? It's not out of this world for an aphrodisiac to cause you to choose pleasure over logic.
And we know Lute is head over heels with Avald, it's not gonna end in a threesome so you don't have to worry.
