Him: would you let yourself be raped by a werewolf?
You: no
Him: If i raped you is that okay?
You:sure
Him: Cool. I’m going to rape you now
You: what?!
Me: And they say love is dead.
Like make it make sense. What was the point? You’re lying to him who you are now you rape him because you lOve him? ╮(￣▽￣)╭
LMFAO!!
I’ve seen so many authors do this. Make the top become a bottom not because of a difference in sexual taste but to distract from that character’s previous offense within the plot. It’s so shallow. And because BL has being a bottom or top tied not only to your sexual role but a character’s personality it also allows the author to then change character’s to align with this new identity and make them “sympathetic” as submissive and emasculated removing their egregious or domineering personality. It’s very calculated and not authentic at all to when compared to say a character that purposely is sexually versatile or doesn’t need to be black out drunk to desire being topped as was done here.
Yep out. Gross prince character and his emotional punching bag. I’m good.
You just know with his personality and if this was a yaoi, pink haired would have raped the chef by now.
wait, isn't the chef is the seme. I thought th pink guy is the uke.
no, i’m pretty sure the pink hair is the seme. i’m getting those vibes from it
idk, but the cover makes it seem like the chef would be the seme. There's rarely any seme who is shorter than uke in korean BL. I mean I could be wrong but probably not.
i’m just going off of their personalities. the chef is shy, quite soft and non-confrontational. i’m not saying that those traits make a character an uke but that’s usually the case in most webtoons and manga. the idol is very outgoing, very pushy and shows interest in the chef which makes me think that he’s the seme. idk, i could be wrong but i’d be surprised if fhis wasn’t the case
Ive learned over the years reading BL there are certain personality dynamics that determine who is the seme or uke. And especially when you see the combination of certain personalities that automatically means this even more. Safest bet (ex. Prince / seme vs. Delinquent/bottom) is almost exclusively done so now when I see a delinquent and this is especially the case in yaoi I know they will be a bottom doesn’t even matter the height or size difference. BL relies on tropes to the point that they become cliches. Once you’ve noticed this BL becomes extremely formulaic and you can guess within reason like in the case of this story (Manipulative narcissist/ seme vs. emotional punching bag/uke) and 8:10 you’d be right.
you worded it perfectly :D BL’s predictability can be very boring at times, but i still find myself searching for particular tropes to ease my boredom. i think i’m all too familiar with the generic character dynamics at this point lol
I really do not enjoy how Qu Cheng keeps forcing himself onto and into Ci Nian's life the way he does. I know it's suppose to be comedic but he's honestly kind of a dick.
right no wonder i enjoyed the slaps
the art is beautiful but i just don't enjoy the seme. he's pushy, doesn't take "NO" for an answer, and is taking advantage of the uke's naïveté by drop feeding him information he knows is clearly important for the uke to have a grasp of things to have a fully formed decision making. instead the uke goes along with things, because really he has to. It's not a good power balance at all.
The prince needed to discuss with his fiancée breaking the engagement before skipping off to another country to get his dick wet behind her back. This is just a combination of yaoi logic, male privilege, and that he’s a prince so he wouldn’t care how his female partner would be inconvenienced, how it would insult her, or better yet make her look shameful for not preventing the prince’s indiscretions. If the prince is capable of fucking Togo on the side it’s obvious he’s slept with others as well before too. And if you also follow the logic of he’s an Arab prince if the author was faithful to the material they’ve referenced, the fiancée is expected to be a virgin while the prince theoretically should be as well if they practiced Islam. Though as a prince and man he might consider himself above these restrictions as it occurs in most male minds. The prince is completely in the wrong and is shit. He knew the expectations for himself and believed he didn’t have to follow them. And Togo knew the man he was seeing was engaged and ultimately was cheating. yaoi will excuse this infidelity because it’s a woman being fucked over and we all know BL hates women. Both MC are shit. It’s only because we get their point of view they seem wholesome. More disappointed at Togo only because we literally are given his back story that he’s been cheated on then he proceeds to do the exact same to interfere in someone else’s relationship. He loses all sympathy.
sigh based off the raws its another problematic plot with the routine comedy cover. having sex with someone repeatedly while lying about who you are is rape by deception. the plot would actually be cute if his identity was revealed before tricking him into sex purposely just because you have a workplace grudge and want to push him off his high horse. it's petty, childish, and gross.
Where you read the raw?
Link please?
not a big fan of the second omega but honestly feel sorry for him. His skeevy boss is clearly using him to satisfy his own unvoiced feelings and making abuse of power sexual transactions as currency in this inappropriate workplace relationship. I hate emotionally manipulative cowards.
Couldn’t agree more
interesting plot but i feel so unsatisfied.Poor Manuel. i was actually hoping patrick and osmond would die too they were complicit to such a disgusting cult and after the whole werewolf family murder, Patrick is no better than his disgusting father.
I meant to like that
