Do you wanna go back to your batshit crazy grandma that basically pimped you out to the people who have been abusing you?
Also, I'm guessing this has something to do with the talisman he tore up, but I need Saha to stop conveniently forgetting that he actively helped in covering up Heetae's murder. It'll probably be revealed to him at some point, but for now it's just irritating me that he's acting like he had nothing to do with all this. He WANTED to be freed of Heetae. Whether murder was the plan or not doesn't even matter atp.
And I don't agree with everything Heesu is doing, but I get the frustration with the sudden change up when he saw Saha bribe that lil girl with the snacks to say she didn't see Heesu drop Heetae off the balcony. He's telling Saha that whatever he thinks is going on is true for his own safety. They're trying to cover up a murder and Saha clearly has something going on with him now. And ofc he'd use Saha to drug Heetae. NO ONE ELSE BUT SAHA AND HIS MOTHER WERE ALLOWED NEAR HEETAE. But Saha ALSO willingly drugged him AND tore up the talisman his grandma told him not to destroy.
Idfk no one is guiltless as far as Heetae's death is concerned, and Heesu's crash out isn't completely unwarranted either. Saha needs to remember what he's been doing so he can stop acting like he's the only one not crazy when, tbh, he's potentially the craziest one there.
Oeuf.

Interesting if there was cannibalism in it.
This shit is so boring and embarrassing I put it right up there with that sad attempt at medicalverse or whatever it was called lol
Most of the time it's just them munching on cum or kissing in these so there's lil to no point in what the verse is supposedly about.
At least in omegaverse, domsubverse and guideverse there's a form of logic behind how they work. With this it's just you can only taste the bodily fluids of a certain type of human being and even then it's unbearably sweet. And I would say that sounds like a living hell to only be able to taste basically cake for the rest of your life, but they added a spin to it like the "forks" only crave being able to taste that sweetness their every waking moment lol

Then why not explore this more in depth?
People are acting like one of the most popular ships online, Hannigram, doesn't exist and that one of the key points of WHY it's popular is specifically the cannibalism lol
Atp it's just people that like to eat cum 'cause it tastes good to them. I know it's supposed to be a play on predation kinks, but it's so poorly done and goofy that I can't take it seriously. I just get secondhand embarrassment and forced to remember that I used the word "fork" as a substitute for "fuck" as a kid lol
Also, there are omegaverse and even guideverse series now that play on predation kinks ((that one omegaverse where alphas have animal forms that move solely on instinct and the guideverse series Blood Bound where the guides and espers can share powers via drinking blood)) so what even is the point of cakeverse lol

honestly... yeah. cakeverse *could* be interesting but i feel like theyre too cowardly to make it interesting. am i, personally, into vore or coprophagia? no. but cakeverse feels kinda toothless (no pun intended) without at least *some* high stakes.
and also, unclear what cakes get out of it... like at least omegas in omegaverse have heats and subs in the domsubverse feel ill if they don't play, that all makes sense, and guides in the guide verse well i guess it's just a job the govt makes them do or something. but cakes? i need to understand cake psychology please

I explained it in another reply, but it's supposed to play off predation kinks lol
Which, irl, the "prey" gets off on being "hunted" by their "predator." The sexual gratification is the pay-off for them in these types of plays.
And I guess cakes are supposed to be the same in this? But I haven't really seen that since they seem to criminalize forks actually treating cakes like prey. The cake in this series brings up hormone/chemical that is released in prey animal brains that makes them horny to alleviate the shock of being hunted so there's also that for cakes.
But like I said, forks aren't allowed to act upon that predator instinct. So, instead, it just ends up with them having sex and munching cum to quell those urges lol
That one omegaverse bl with the mouse omega artist and his fox alpha editor plays better into the predation kink than cakeverse does imo. There's several others in omegaverse and even just in beastman series that play on this leagues better lol

But the point of a safeword is for it to be something you wouldn't normally say during sex or could be mistaken as encouragement to continue.
A lot of BDSM centered stories do this trope where they make "I like/love you" their safeword, and I get *why* to a degree, but it immediately sucks me out of the moment every single time. It's why the fucking "pineapples" thing was a running joke for so long. It sounds silly af but it's a good example of what to use. It's not only a word you wouldn't say in the heat of the moment but it's also good at breaking the tension 'cause of how nonsensical it is. No one is gonna continue a hard-core play after hearing someone shout pineapples lol
I just wish bl authors would understand why safewords are so important just a tiny bit more and not treat it like an emotional crutch plot point.

Like, there are several ways to hit us with the emotional damage, you don't have to make the safeword the method to inflict it lol
And what's sad is that I can't recall, at least in recent memory, a single BDSM or domsubverse series that doesn't use this trope. First couple times I could chalk it up to them just not knowing, but atp it's an immersion breaker and disappointing.

Kuroi Yodaka has a good one called Praise Me When I'm a Good Boy. It's domsubverse where both the sub and dom struggle with feeling comfortable fulfilling their needs and I'm p sure they don't use "I love you" as a safeword at least lol
Yodaka-sen is also just one of my fave bl mangaka of all times rn. You should check their other works, too, if you haven't already lol
To force Jaekyung and Kim Dan to hug it out for two whole months lol
Either way, hope the surgery goes well and we get to successfully return to our regularly scheduled sPain.
