im on ch 6 and all i can think is how kwon jae-kyoung is an undiagnosed autistic swimming savant and no ones talking about it lmao
i actually read the novel for this one. its great, 10/10, no notes. im excited to see it drawn out. theres 10 extra chapters at the end of the main story too which was soooo delightful.
ooohhhh noooo the wretched monstrous curse of being darkskinnded the HORRORS!!!
/s
lmao luka ainst ur so funny lol ty for ur service if u need any community service hours ill sign off on them fs lolol
goofy i wish they had talked about literally anything going on between them
ngl if i were hyundoo, even if i had remembered our anniversary i may not have assumed we were celebrating the night before too unless u specified. and then id feel like shit finding out u had all these expectations that I couldn't meet bc i didnt know about them. and ofc youngchan didnt magically feel better when he heard hyunsoo apologize, he just felt even more guilty about having his feelings in the first place. he still should have communicated all that he felt and some expectations and hopes - or at least that he is insecure in their relationship and himself - so that they can avoid this mess in the future and develop some real trust between them. hyunsoo is getting very secure in their relationship and is thriving consequently, but youngchan is drowning in his feelings of doubt and fear alone. he can't girlboss his way out of that either, theyre gonna have to work on that together fr fr cuz its not sustainable. I cant believe this is the epilogue cuz aint no way they have time for all that
im glad they didn't make it a big thing with the sister. lets keep it happy and low stress pls. ig the author just likes pink hair
i love that we all just skipped right past the whole "don't you just love a sea of blood-red roses? doesn't it just turn you on to imagine a sea of blood?" bit lmaoooooo
Q&A had requested "more snake characteristics" in the sex... author-nim, that aint a characteristic, thats a whole damn snake
who is the guy with the curly mustache in chapter 62? the lady hes having a convo with kinda looks like ol' girl's maid/lady in waiting from when she was at the palace but i cant make sense of the scene and why they are talking to each other. tia
hey hey hey what tf happened to "the most important thing is communication", babes??
"if you swallow while it's in your mouth" what? what happens that wasn't already happening?
hmmm this is a secure/insecure attachment relationship and i think everyone in the comments is just reacting based on their own triggers and attachment styles. with that being said, i think this story fell flat for me bc of Rou just genuinely not being considerate of his partner and Yoshino never really getting the chance to express his feelings about it and hold Rou accountable. like Rou goes to lunch with the guy, calls him 'thrilling', is obviously super into him - though i believe its platonic and he was TRYING to be considerate by being open and honest (the secure attachment, in his mind he's just telling his lover about some cool new guy he met at work), but Yoshino was obviously bothered by it (insecure attachment, he felt he needed to be more thrilling and compete for Rou's attention even though he has been dating him for a year and is frequently affirmed in his love for him) but just kept telling himself (Yoshino) that he shouldn't be worried and then kept his fears to himself (ain't nun wrong with insecure attachment, but communication is key bc ppl with secure attachment literally do not understand the mental turmoil we go thru lmao). all of the tiny things/doubts/squicks added up into a big thing when Rou slept over, but they have been dating for over a year at this point, Rou was caring for an abused friend, and was verrryyy open about it all so it honestly wasnt a CRAZY situation, tho Yoshino still was very valid in his feelings about it and would have been valid to set a boundary to protect his feelings. I think he understood the situation enough that he put his feelings aside
so Rou could be a good friend, but the cost of that was he had to deal with his stress and anxiety alone. And Rou literally just did not at all think about how his partner, who imo he should have noticed isn't secure in their relationship, would feel about him taking some other guy on a friend date to their promised spot or that he might feel burdened by his plans to spend the night. and then when he finally does realize, sure he goes to apologize and recognizes the problem, but its just not as gratifying to me as a reader as if Yoshino were to use his own words and say out loud what made him uncomfortable and set clear boundaries moving forward, instead of just Rou vaguely declaring 'I promise I'll never make you feel like this again!'. like how could you possibly do that when you clearly aren't super observant?? took you a year and a half and him blacking out drunk then trying to suck you off to notice the man doesn't feel secure in your relationship. how exactly do you plan to avoid this in the future?? but i think thats more of an issue with how the author chose to resolve the conflict rather than beef with the characters themselves. and then hopping right into sex?? twice?!?!? no sit down conversation or nothin?!?? girl...
hey fellas, i took a break from this story bc the weekly updates were making it hard to follow the storyline/pacing for a minute for me. are we at a point where itll be worth hopping back in? i think i stopped around ch 75. ty!
theres so much to say about this story... but idk why NO ONE is talking about serdina's sick and twisted relationship with blaine like its easy to not feel bad for blaine cuz hes a creepy piece of shit, but the more u learn about his mom you realize he didn't stand a chance at not becoming like that. yeesh. yuck!
idk why hes cooperating with his family. he keeps saying he's afraid of dying but how is working with the very nggas who left u for dead in the first place supposed to help u??
