is he really sick?? the story keeps going back and forth between him saying he's faking and others thinking he's really sick so idk anymore..
i thought his shattered energy core didn't impact him that much, and he was faking an illness to give the throne to his brother. is the medecine he's taking to simulate symptoms, really making him sick?

they're all pretty messed up tbh. i don't think MC needs a boyfriend right now, he needs therapy.
also his two choices are
1. the guy who made him hate himself for sleeping around, made him think that the only touch from someone who loved him that he could get was violence and that he deserved it because he was ''too nice to everyone''. same guy can't communicate, has anger issue, and is probably more obsessed with him than in love.
2. the ''nice'' guy who is clueless about everything. cleary is under his sister's abusive control, seems like he could just go crazy at any moment. also, MC can't express any feeling without this guy making him feel bad about. he says ''i want to die'' and ends up apologizing because it made the other one confused. he can't even get mad without this guy panicking.
neither of them should end up with him TT

it just feels really weird to me that ML keeps talking about their past when he knows MC doesn't remember.
he keeps dropping phrases like ''we did that two years ago'' without giving any context. it's just weird. is he expecting MC to suddenly remember? is that why he's never fully clear about what MC's situation or their relationship actually was? i don't see the appeal in constantly confusing your lover... is ML kinda twisted?
i get that he can't get him out because of political shit, but he could at least talk clearly about their shared past. ML exepts the same kind of affection they once shared from MC who gives it to him because he's just so miserable and confused. it isn't love it's coercion
this is still so good!!! their dynamic keeps getting better even after they confessed i love it
i often loose interest when the main characters get together cause it often dull their banter and flirting in other stories... but this one!!!! so good
