Like, this would be a totally different story if Nakyum hadn't been guilt tripped by his homophobic teacher.
He'd just be commissioned to paint for Seungho. He'd just be over here getting paid as a spoiled lords personal painter.
Who knows, Sengho may have not even wanted to fuck him. Seeing how twisted Sengho is it had to be the appeal of corrupting Nakyum. But if Nakyum could just paint like it was no big deal. If he had no conflicted feeling to show when ever he drew or painted, I'm sure he'd just be like a piece of furniture for Seungho. He'd provide him with room and board, as well as painting supplies. And would probably give him a decent salary.
Of course we are all reading it cuz so much DRAMA!
I think his coldness is a coping mechanism. For whatever reason he was the one chosen to be the "husband" in this arranged marriage. He obviously doesn't want to do it.
I guess he could be nicer? But he is being forced to engage in sex acts with someone he doesn't love/like/have a sexual attraction too. Being forced to mate with someone can't be easy even if you are the one penetrating. He might even figure that the rabbit tribe is just doing it for the food (he isn't wrong about that the rabbit tribe sold the poor mc out).
It is not an excuse for his cold behavior. But I think I understand why he's behaving the way that he is. Of course sooner or later the two characters will talk about feelings and fall in love. Let's just hope that this writer gives the seme a legitimate sense of remorse. That he isn't just forgiven and then behaves like nothing bad happend. That we get to see him struggle with how cruel he was at the start.
Also that the rabbit tribe gets cursed out by somebody cuz damn.
I don't care. I don't particularly dislike the blonde chick. Dude has a long way to go before I ship him with Chloe. Like I understand that killing is part of war. But the way his underlings behaved. LIke no, if they are under your command they need to behave with decorum. Also you enjoyed killing a bit too much too. Also slaves are still human. A tragic backstory should give you empathy not excuse your cruelty.
You can't keep the power of the Archduke without dealing with social niceties. Don't want woman coming after you? Drop your rank. Don't let your dad push you around, retire from noble life. And give up all the money, power and underlings that come with it.
Like, use your words? If you want to be date then date? Just admit that you've always found him attractive but didn't know that he was gay but now that you know you'd like to give dating a shot? Cuz while you want to fuck him you totally don't just want to fuck him or else you wouldn't be getting all yandere about it. So instead of causing unnecessary misunderstanding by giving the impression that you only want the guy you likes ass, tell him you like him. Not love, you don't have admit to that yet, but just that you are romantically interested.
yeah yeah I know. There wouldn't be a story that way. Just feels weird that these otherwise competent people in these stories make things so complicated.
Right? Why talk about feeling? Surely my dick can do the talking? It's not like a few chapters in the guy I'm interested in won't feel used and try to break things off with me because he doesn't know how I feel. Nope that will never happen?
Who is that? A love rival that is everything I am but is also more open with his feelings that openly flirts with the guy I like but I won't tell I like?!?! Oh Noes!











Not asking for advice from random library hottie is stupider. Sure she wants to keep things secret for shojo reasons. But here comes another magical expert (who obvs is crushing on her but I digress). She was given such a great opportunity to figure things out without her husbands help. Why not take it???
