They don't have a safe word, but the moment Puppy said "no," Yeonwoo stopped everything. He's been demanding as a master but nothing violent. We shouldn't assume he knows all about Puppy's past traumas. He noticed Puppy was acting upset, and he tried to reassure him that the cross-dressing wasn't weird.
Is Puppy mentally and emotionally stable enough for this kind of relationship? Probably not, but since neither one is talking yet, they're gonna have to figure it out the hard way.
I think...Daddy Eyebrows likes YiYoung but didn't think YiYoung liked him back (as more than a nice boss/one-time-fuck/use him to get ahead in the company). And maybe even just admired him as a business mentor.
YiYoung managed to hide his feelings fairly well for a while, or come up with some silly excuses for his weird reactions. They've both been "playing it cool," and sending mixed signals.
Now Daddy Eyebrows knows - we'll see what he does about it. Which will end in lovey-dovey hotdamn! sex :)
I loved this. It was sweet for the main pair, and sad for the third guy. But it was also very realistic. I was afraid for them all once we saw the third guy's dream was rape - he didn't want to do that or become that. For him, it's probably best that he stays away from the pretty one for a while, whether he ever accepts his sexuality isn't strictly straight or not.
I'm going to shamelessly plug my fanfic series, since I haven't recently. If you like this manga plus a lot of the other popular ones like Junjou Romantica and Finder, then maybe check it out. - https://archiveofourown.org/series/1384039










Such a mess - I love it.
I kind of hope Julian ends up alone (or at least Charles tops him, haha), but otherwise I don't care at this point who ends up with who.
