with rape in yaoi i get it’s all fiction and mostly used as a cheap, but common catalyst for romance/plot. however this is a rare instance of a story addressing the after effects and admitting the incident was life changing. instead of getting treated like a minor inconvenience, its good how his trauma is getting explored and also not brushed off instantly? there wasn’t some cosmic loving reaction seeing the ml again. mc was angry, hurt, and triggered by his presence and in this current state still effected by it. it’s praiseworthy to include the long term psychological damage of rape
he does not do it for me… you’re telling me he never liked og villainess and sold his little sister to a violent kingdom? but the second the mc starts acting like a mother he starts treating her like a human and with basic decency wtf!? his newfound fondness for her feels so forced and shallow, talk about supporting a mary sue trope
and even though this started off interesting, im a little disappointed in her character direction. she’s knowledgeable about people’s emotions or overall reading the room but when it comes to the romance she’s suddenly thinking nothing of it at all. i think she has depth, but they’re not exploring it in a way that fits the narrative. when i think of all the things that happened to her, i get confused why she’s so focused on noah only and didn’t seem to have any goals outside of calling off her engagement. the only reason why she even found out about the lake she appeared in is because noah told her so. but if it wasn’t for that, what exactly was her plan to go back home or what were her other priorities?
people clocking or hating on her isn’t misogyny… both sides lacked emotionally and didn’t communicate their feelings maturely. it’s a disservice to make either one of them the only victim, BUT i understand if readers don’t like the ex or the ml since we all have our own experiences with people that relate to them
he wasn’t telling her about his new relationship to blame her for being a girl or lessen his own responsibility ?? he mentioned it since she asked and he wanted to finally be honest with her. his entire complex = refusing to be open with people because of his upbringing... her issue with him was that she felt like the only one putting effort into the relationship and loved him one sidedly when that wasn’t the case… he’s literally trying to apologize now and clear the air, except he should’ve been more tactful about it. she’s now taking his vulnerability the wrong way, because she’s still hurt and i don’t blame her for wanting to take her frustration out on him!! she doesn’t know this new jinhyeong
this author is crazy talented not only did i find their chemistry too good, but the humor didn’t even take away from the eroticism. the quirkiness and sex/sexual tension blend perfectly??
honestly an omega like mc deserves three or more boyfriends, he’s so beautiful
we need to form a leewon hole protection team. their relationship is really fucking lustful, but in the most unsatisfying way? im pro smut, but after all that caesar has done im kind of shocked at how baseline and shallow their relationship is. in the beginning their dynamic was witty and full of tension. but how can all their vulnerable moments be tied to only violent and painful rape marathons? and then now, he sees leewon exhausted and in terrible condition but the first thing he thinks of is his own needs…
he reminds me of those horrible husbands that force their wives to have sex right after giving birth
they’re not outwardly buttfucking and splashing the screen with jizz and that makes it not gay… lets chill a bit horndogs. ignoring all the words, touches, and tainted but also pure affection they have towards one another is sad. this is so clearly a slow burn toxic bl/yaoi where is your yearning at??!!
many of you guys dont realize how erotic and sensual vampirism as a whole is. biting and “turning” someone in general can be symbolism of power, abuse, or all consuming love. in other context, like romantic, drinking someone’s blood or making them into a vampire is also an allegory for consent and in general just sex?? im finding a lot of enjoyment in this story because it flips the script on the classic power dynamics between humans and vampires. yamadera is the one who holds the leash, yet a dominating predator like sayo is showing this human “monster” what it means to live and also have someone unconditionally love and care for you. you guys are undermining and undervaluing this story so much just because it’s not outwardly telling you they confessed, got married, and showed explicit anal . when it’s shown several times how much these men both mean to each other, yet they’re trying to work out their own clashing philosophies and trauma
he wants it so badly but can’t say it the duke really taught him how nice it feels to let someone else take control and let yourself be vulnerable, i can’t blame him for getting hooked
some of you forget all the context and believe living together since young = siblings. this is a gross misunderstanding and also downplays the upbringing they had. from the beginning, they were pitted against each other and never felt anything familial. both of them were completely separate beings from one another, and only lived in the same house. erwon was used as the golden scapegoat for the family. he was responsible for all of their child’s wrongdoings and had to be perfect on his own- never getting parental love. meanwhile og mc hated his guts and never saw him as anything other than competition for succession rights
how many times are we going to have this same easily dismissible conversation. growing up in the same environment and never bonding as a family would not make you siblings. they were literally strangers (enemies) in the same home
he begged so nicely?? that was really fucking fake, i wouldn’t be able to hold back hes so pretty and is being bratty for a reason
rip they will never make a beautiful brown bottom like this again, we gotta wait another 3 years . even though the story was ok i read solely for the gorgeous ml and don’t regret it
i can already tell andante telling mc he’s “useful” in place of a kinder answer has affected him deeply. i wouldn’t mind if our guide actually left this stiff esper. andante is overly cocky about his decisions and too self assured. he had full control over mc emotionally this entire time. i want to see ml humbled and trying to actively win over hyoseop instead. hyo is so willing and genuine with his feelings, so i need to see ml being the one to love harder and have some sense of desperation
he’s being really avoidant about the issue at hand and then his only answer for taking responsibility is resigning??? he didn’t give us any information and thinks it’s okay to recluse im beating his raisin ass
ive read way worse stories than this but the betrayal and disappointment i feel for jiheon is so different compared to any other toxic ml . i keep complaining about the same issue here, but its very strange to me how selfish ml is…
the drugging and manipulation is not tactful because wooju is the easiest person to control!!! he’s not a difficult person to win over, and the lack of empathy for someone so innocent and pure disturbs me so badly. the evil acts are unnecessary, and wooju is the only person suffering in this dynamic when there’s no struggle to begin with ?? this is coming from someone who enjoys yandere or possessive stories, but this right here is true date rape horror
WHY IS HE LOOKING AT US LIKE THAT HES ALL YOURS BRO RELAX
on a serious note we’re so fucking back… he wasted no time investigating and figured it out quick. the possessive bite and holding was everything!! all that’s left is for the prince to get rid of the tainted heart of the throne and then courting our mc. you guys don’t understand how excited i am, abel is about to be pampered and romanced like crazy
i don’t care if you’re excited for his beat down but he did not cheat. the truth is he did nothing in order to “deserve it”, stop trying to justify what’s about to happen. just say you want to see him be brutalized that’s fine
they weren’t together!! the poor guy was leeching off of him as a victim and slave to his desires
i don’t find it surprising at all that ian reacted this way and instead find it sad he’s always pushed to react to an extreme because of these people. some readers don’t understand the severity of the situation, he was about to die?? his adrenaline and fight or flight reaction were extremely high… his only thoughts were to get rid of the problem while keeping himself safe
to people saying he doesn’t deserve jo, you guys are doing a disservice to ians character and his circumstances. the entire plot is shows us how the underworld keeps their claws on him, and jo is the only light that could save him- making him feel human again. i don’t know what the fuck will happen to them, all i know is that i want all three of them to end up happy
genuinely i feel scared and anxious for the bottom because he’s not conscious or even critical of the bad things people do to him. all he does is chase after what makes him feel good, but gets the most blown out of proportion consequences. his innocence is jarring to see and someone here described him as a child and i feel the same way…
it’s one of those stories where he’s given “born yesterday” syndrome and all the adults who know better than him take advantage :/
the greed of exorcists… they know it’s an eternal kid no matter how long it’s lived for, and that person suggested they inflict harm on it??? i hope mc hurts all of them i don’t care, he wasn’t created to be exploited and treated this way
she even called her own son a stiff face and doesn’t accept the kind praise easily LMAO she knows him too well. i hope she’s not an evil, power hungry antagonist because i like her attitude now and she can be a pillar of strength for the crown princess. knowing how stupid the king is, he’s bound to hurt mc again and mc will need that comfort
ik this man isn’t complaining… as if he didn’t have twink the fifth on his waist and left his boyfriend alone on the couch to socialize. meanwhile kyung was just laughing with other people???
im expecting sore dicks and holes after this petty fight
