I'm not really a fan the born sexy yesterday trope (where a love interest who's too innocent for their own good/ lacks mature comprehension that probably don't even know the concept of love is, but conveniently in a grown person's body)
but will let it simmer for a bit and see how they develop this
To be fair, at least this time of it does happen it’s 100% because of trauma and spells and shit? Also, he’s getting better so at least the trauma is addressed where in other stories it conveniently disappears through the ‘power of love’. I’ve got a feeling that as she breaks down the brainwashing spells and stuff he’ll start to actually become more ‘human’ again, so less of an ‘innocent in a big boi body’ trope and more ‘breaking down literal walls due to magic until I remember what it’s like to be human’ trope
A mysoginistic asshole who is far from being a gentleman with pseudo-incest tendencies thinks there's no way a woman who knows how much of a scum he could be thinks he's not fuckable. Wow, how can she say no to that, her standards must be really high. It's either him who's literally a bare minimum or she'll end up becoming a spinster as they kept saying for sure.
I like how it reminds me a bit of of Animal farm and 1984 by George Orwell, where there's an totalitarian or authoritarian aspect, Mother (Big Brother-ish) is always watching you and just the whole idea of seemingly apocalyptic but actually extends to dystopian society where the people who holds absolute power corrupts absolutely. Then we have yaoi adding up with everything as a cherry on top and it's a whole fucking meal goddamit










He's so bad at this
