i hate this story for making me bawl my eyes out UGH why would anyone read painter of the night when peak historical yaois like this exists ??
i hate how poetic every single dialogue was— like what do you mean you love someone SO MUCH they’re not only spring to you but ALL FOUR SEASONS ?? what do you mean you’d GOUGE YOUR EYES OUT IF YOU COULDN’T SEE THEM ANYMORE ?? CUT YOUR TONGUE OFF IF YOU WEREN’T ABLE TO CALL OUT THEIR NAME ??
i hate how good this manhwa was.

y’all the duke said he was filled with LOVE not lust when he went to go SAVE a child in distress he even sent him away later and actively sought out female candidates for a wife as well as hid the fact that he saved Alois so he could forget about him so can we PLEASE give the man the benefit of doubt
i finally finished the main story and the sex scenes were honestly so good oh my sweet family jewels that japanese spring bath one was so intimate holy frigging sausage
