idgaf about redheads flashbacks or his pov. like i get it, character depth and making him feel like a real person and what not, but oh my god i was just scrolling this whole chapter through like bruh i could not be bothered. and who’s the random hater who’s tryna pretend mc isn’t pretty? man what are we doing here
wow…where do we go from here? will yall be mad at me if i say mika needs to get his shit done? the nobles must go. elva is a deeply kind person, who won’t agree with mika’s response to their clans (race?) abuse, but he won’t give up on mika now especially knowing the exact reasoning behind his massacres. i think it shows me how either response to sexual assault/religious trauma is valid. you can’t dictate how a survivor decides to forgive their abuser.
also, did anybody catch if the islanders/peasents/lower class were apart of the widespread abuse? or was it just the rich and high class ppl who came and tortured them too?
I assumed they were talking about the past since their comment mentioned about people “coming” to the island. Cause in present time, no one openly comes and goes from the island except for those researchers. Cause if they were talking about the past, the islanders definitely knew outright or it was like an open secret. If they’re talking about present day then yes, almost no one knows about their awful past except for the top people. I would even say the church (whatever that is) doesn’t even know the full truth since they’ve leaned so far into the religious beliefs.










sorry this is such a guilty pleasure. even tho in any other fic, i’d hate the ml and wouldn’t read it, this fic somehow makes it work and makes me want more lol. so compelling idc
I feel the exact same way!! I literally count the days til this updates bc I can’t get enough of their dynamic
