Daaaamn, these two are flipping each other like pancakes. i just love a couple who takes turns taking the lead; i love when both guys get to be aggressive *and* slutty
Also love that every time J has second thoughts, instead of going down the rapey top route to move the "plot" along, Sihyun just does something *really* hot and J goes "mmh good point, you *should* put your tongue on my dick"
I feel like alexis' villain arc was waaay too abrupt. He was green flags all the way, then suddenly oops, btw, ml absolutely *hates* prophets, to the extent that he will immediately throw out his beloved husband. We needed way more foreshadowing or maybe a proper flashback to whatever the hell his trauma is with fortune tellers.
Then, just as suddenly, he's now gone into obssessive kidnapper mode. We got a *little* bit of his perspective, but it still felt quite rushed to me. I wanted to see more of a downward spiral rather than this sudden dive into crazy
Well, there are some points to consider. Eugene did mention what Alexis was like in his knowledge based on the novel. I remember he ( or was it Alexis’s mother) gave us a brief description of Alexis’s circumstances and though I’m not sure if it was mentioned that Alexis detests prophets, but he doesn’t hold positive feelings toward them.
Also, after the chaos at the trial, not only did the person/s responsible got away but Eugene collapsed, and got told by the viscountess that Eugene was a prophet and continued to say about how the previous prophet ended up and Eugene was safer with him. Although the viscountess meant well, that whole conversation contained sore spots, if not land mines.
Add to that, the person that could give clarity to the situation, aka Eugene, was passed out for 4 months. In the audience’s perspective, we got a time skip. To Alexis, doubts and suspicions were gradually plaguing his mind day and night for months.
Personal opinion: Despite having doubts and suspecting he was just used, he was all the more yandere-ish? because he fell for Eugene, hard. He was the one who courted first after all. So there are some conflicting thoughts like what was shown in the season finale. I actually liked that part. … perhaps all this wouldn’t have snowballed if they just confessed they liked each other. Then again, I would understand if it was less believable in their perspective given their current circumstances.
In short, The system is whack

Damn I thought for sure they were gonna do a whole nother arc of misunderstanding before we got any action!!! Hopefully we finally get *some* sort of relationship developement and no "oh maybe that was a platonic kiss ha ha im just soooo dense... better keep misunderstanding each other for 20 chs"
(Im still mad at An Egocentic Way of Thinking for pulling this shit btw)








Its kinda nice seeing a rich ml who's not like cheabol rich. Hes obviously spoiled as hell, but his parents do have *some* limits on how much he's allowed to spend. And his parents feel like normal ppl who made their own fortune rather than everyone being super snooty
Yess I was thinking the samee
