Like the type of friend who is always in a crisis but the crisis is something they caused themselves, I really understand his friends pain with his San withdrawals during this drama queen shit lmao
This is very much giving clay doll learning how to mimic a real boy, I am not feeling the energy of someone who understands or feels real emotion towards who they are with/what they are doing. Literally like Frankenstein’s monster, confused and easily agitated but attached to what stimulates him.
I know it feels dramatic as fuck that he’s just throwing himself into the forest to either a) get kidnapped/killed by the family again and swapped out for another sacrifice who won’t jeopardize the family hold over Mugo or b) caught/punished by Mugo but… his actions aren’t crazy.
Brother is def having a panic attack and certainly has PTSD/CPTSD from his upbringing so he is in flight mode. He was just threatened by his abuser (family head) and DID ask for help from who he views as a guardian (Mugo) who has shut him down callously.
Granted, Ja Heon has asked Mugo to consume him multiple times and this likely didn’t strike Mugo as noteworthy, however I feel that this personality is particularly indifferent to his emotions. I think he perceived that he was the key needed to return to wholeness, but then again it could be because the secondary personality is his passion just as the third is his naïveté and the fourth is his wrath.
Anyways, looking forward to how the characters grow from each other and the plot thickens~
The ones who said ML isn’t going to run the old “I don’t want to commit to you but no one else can have you or I’ll start acting a fool” trope. I want to make sure you’re up to date on your eye exams, if you’re missing signs as obvious as these I hope you aren’t driving yet.
The reason it’s not great ML isn’t disclosing that MC is actually a namer (specifically his) is because now that we know they are going to develop feelings for each other/what is most likely a positive relationship, once it is revealed (I’m guessing by MCs parents in some pseudo humorous way like “you’ve always had this birthmark”) MC is going to immediately overthink it as “ I never had free will and we never had feelings for each other, we were only driven together by the words on our skin just like all these posts on Reddit said, just like all these media outlets said, I can’t trust my feelings and now I certainly can’t trust YOU.”
That’s why it’s bad.
Also, please note, withholding information IS considered deception. Deception can be a form of manipulation, however manipulation is not necessarily deception. “All squares are rectangles”, you know? If he was actively manipulating, this would be gaslighting MC into thinking he wasn’t a namer. However, since he’s doing it indirectly, I’d say it’s just on the side of deception.
I don’t know if I even want the next season, I don’t know if I have the capacity for this whole new plot twist arc
When an author is fond of rape, because even when it’s unnecessary to the plot or the MC/ ML are “happy together now” there’s always going to be that energy in the sex scenes that give mad SA discomfort.
ML is absolute garbage (we all know, I’m not even getting into it) and MC is mad irritating.
Every 5 minutes he’s like “I can’t live like this, you don’t own me, I have to escape!” just to switch up the second ML does something that’s semi decent (not even ABOVE decent).
Like are you fucking dense, every other sentence the ML can’t hold back from LITERALLY describing you as property who has no say in anything that happens, confirming you’ll be the side piece when he’s married and (SPOILER) you can’t leave the fucking house which has 24/7 monitoring. But sure, worry about when he gets hurt and ask how busy his day has been, stupid ass.
I came to the comments expecting an apology for Yanagi and yet why am I not surprised to find additional death wishes for him (and his wife, who is at fault but not deserving of DEATH??)
I’m seeing comments checking people for forgetting about the brother (rip angel) like he wasn’t only given an honorable mention and no screen time 12,347 sex scenes ago. Get your feet off these people’s necks.
Doesn’t act like the adult she is and clearly state why she’s there and own her relationship with Hyundo proudly to ease his mind I’m going to beat her ass transcendentally.
If this author really thinks we want to see this poor man have a whole secondary breakdown arc before getting happiness while watching La La Loopsy over here run into walls like a Roomba, then they can’t read the room for shit.
If Guwon really isn’t human, maybe it’s connected to the title. The second time the King defies the gods and evades his punishment or “death”, he returned to the mortal world to live out the remainder of his life. The first time he trapped Thanatos and as a result no one could pass over (similar to what we see here with the living dead.) His failure to see fault and repeat his mistake a second time was when he really pissed off the gods and received the boulder rolling decree. Maybe Guwon doesn’t have his memory because he defied death on a deeper level than the regular humans surviving the apocalypse and he’ll be receiving/has already received a cross to bear to resolve the apocalypse or protect what he cares about.
Same fucking tired trope with an uke who is gonna let himself be walked all over regardless of the perfectly fine 2nd ML and the I-don’t-want-to-commit-to-you-but-nobody-else-can-have-you asshole seme. How creative.
I see more people in here going off about a white lie than I do in most of the recent toxic BLs, where’s this energy for actual abusive/manipulative tops
