this chapter sucks ass (quite literally) and im utterly wholeheartedly disappointed. insert that Tyra Banks next top model meme. WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU! All that change of pace, all that redemption, that internal monologues, realization, and flashbacks all that self-preservation just for him to surrender it all for the jinx. yeah, I get it, its the jinx he need to have sex before match. But he does it like how he does back then. Force himself. It just muddied all the efforts he has done. what sucks most is yall ready to look past that because suddenly theres longer foreplay and they hadnt had sex for a long time.
maybe it was a mistake on my part but I really thought he'd let Dan enter his room on his own. Hesitate for awhile with them just standing there awkwardly, him having a very obvious tent yet still ask Dan if he's okay with everything before he cant take it any longer and grabs Dan for a deep kiss. but naaah, like then, he forces his way with Dan. How does that justify the MONTHS of controlling himself when in the moment that it truly matters, he cant? Consent to me was crucial at this point. It had to be verbalized, to be felt. But no, he still did what past Jaekyoung would do, Submit to his desire on his terms.
im sorry but we gonna let this pass because "Dan agreed" and "Dan was into it" ??? No. If these are the narrative were going along, then its no different with what happened in the past coz back then, Dan ALSO agreed and Dan was ALSO into it. JK saying hes holding back because Dan wasnt "up for that snuff" was a disservice to his redemption. its almost saying he does it out of conscience rather than his feelings for Dan. I might be outstretching, but I really thought he's going to fight the urge of his Jinx for Dan OR Dan will be the one to initiate it. but alas, nothing changed.




good lord these comment section is a cesspool of readers who just read solely for the smut rather than any cohesion to the story. verbalization of consent found in the gutter in favor of "omg they're finally having sex AGAIN"
Are you braindead? Dan eagerly knocked JK's door for it qnd was nauseous and lost his appetite because he was so impatient.
impatient.... sure...
