I really don't like Eclis lol, he infuriates me and I don't know why cuz he isn't really that bad? I guess? But now I know why I can't get on board with this ship. It's because he's the sad boi who expects the person he likes to like him as well. Ohmyfckinggod it fcking irritated me when he was acting all jealous when Penelope had something important to do and can't pay attention to him. Penelope always have to adjust to his outbursts in order to placate him, ugh I fcking hate this type of character the most, sue me.
I commented last chapter that Penelope and Callisto was similar due to their experiences and actions. Well, Eclis is kinda on the same situation being stuck as a slave with no known escape, but the difference is their mindsets. The first two is doing the best they could in order to get out of their shackles, sacrificing and compromising what they want just to do so, Eclis in the other hand willingly wears the chains tying him down. While there isn't anything wrong with a man so utterly besotted he'll gladly be your slave, Eclis somehow does it so fcking bad. He's the type that was dependent on everything Penelope gives, he's got nothing to offer, nothing to fall in love with, no charm at all jfc. And he has the audacity to ask for more of her lmao. Ugh he's just so pathetic as a character, no redeeming qualities. Has he even done anything for Penelope? I can't even remember! The relationship is so skewed, with Penelope providing everything so he'll fall in love with her, and him doing nothing, getting jealous and expecting his feelings to be reciprocated!? I hate that the most, he ain't even doing anything to make her fall for him and yet he wants the love to be mutual? And now he's like a ticking time bomb again, getting mad when Penelope is sad instead of comforting her shhxvjsjsjguiidh I can't believe he's getting everything wrong! Opportunities are practically laid in front of him and yet he's fumbling every single time ugh.
