so now mc is getting shamed for not being bitchless? sorry he was getting ass like omg!! he might be self-destructive, but he’s MY self-destructive idiot and i’m standing 10 toes down behind him!!
eve is so sweet and charming, i really hope they don’t do a 180 on his personality later on in the story. i love how naive and genuine he is, most tops/mls always have some version of the ‘cold, arrogant’ personality trope, so he’s really refreshing and cuteeeee
wow…the fact that he wasn’t willing to go through with the murder means nothing? instead, as a reward, he gets brutalized for it even more?? i was becoming weak but i really hope nothing but the worst for the ml. he easily could’ve treated him better as a result, see where his heart lies and at least treat him kindly as a prisoner. you funky bitch, next time mc gets a chance you’re fucking DONE!
WAITTT THE EVIL DUKE WAS SLEEPING WITH PEOPLE WHO AHD BLONDE HAIR AND GREEN EYES AND A SMALL FRAME WAY BACK IN THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS…OH ABEL I AM SO SORRY FOR WHATEVER THE AUTHOR HAS PLANNED FOR YOU OMG STAY SAFE….???
abel is such a good natured soul. he doesn’t even know it’s the prince, but his purity will make the prince who’s been killing abel impersonators reluctantly care for him again, what a talent lolol. honestly i’d be obsessed too if i ever met abel, look at the impact he’s left behind on people he knew for mere months.
also the blonde duke is hot so i really thought the first few chapters, he was an antihero who did dubious things but for the princes sake. whole time he’s the devil the prince needed saving from omg
i thought that they were gonna make abel his love interest somehow in his old body, so i was like um….hows that gonna work wtf, but the reincarnation was so well written and smoothly executed. it makes sense why he’s a fragile twink now, even though i loved his old body and style. plus, his mental status was put on pause for 11 years, so he still has the mindset of an 18 year old now lol. author said NO problematic loopholes here!
idgaf internalized homophobia and intense societal homophobia that’s built into the fabric of the government, the church, the school classroom, it’s something sinister, pervasive and it’s everywhere. it’s fucking hard being (openly) gay in an east asian country, when the alternative is being safe and in the closet vs, now becoming suicidal due to being ostracized of your support circle.
and idc imma support mc through whatever decisions he makes in distress, bc yeah it’s easy to say there’s a handbook to healthy communication but it would be easy in a perfect world where there are no outside factors. life is more nuanced, clearly.
one is talking about golf, the other about gay sex. ouuuu this misunderstanding is delicious and so stupid!!
i thought bada was about to fucking chuck the metal lunchbox at his head and give him a tbi, he has so much self control. i’m emotionally constipated the way mc is, so if i opened up and the nigga i’m being vulnerable to is just cracking jokes with a sinister smile? i’d be going to jail, sorry!
the panel when he gives the hickey and ml bends down so mc can reach his neck and he tucks his hands under mc’s thighs so he has somewhere to grab… SOMEBODY SEDATE MEEEEE IM GONNA FUCKING KMS! ITS NOT A WANT ITS A NEEEED
wish that the cheating arc was wrapped up in a better way, that was way too short for something that tomrmented mc for the entire second novel.
etienne could breathe really hard in rishiar’s direction and he’d lose it. his monkey brain would go ‘omg did he just whimper at me’ like he’s lovesickkkk
this art is rough. i don’t think the artist characterizes the mc well, he looks weak and his facial expressions are weirdly open and overly vulnerable. mc is the same dude who always has a poker face, who felix would do anything to get a reaction out of, and now he’s just full of all these facial expressions and has made a 180? hmmmm
but besides that, it’s just very mediocre. if the author had a reason to get rid of the other artist, that’s fine (allegations of cp is more than enough for me) but i mean is there a shortage on up and coming manhwa artists or what
loveee when ml’s make real human expressions. i’ve realized ml’s rarely make facial expressions outside of maybe wide eyes when super shocked, but it just makes them look like stupid robots and not mysterious, cold male leads. jitae looking genuinely devestated and sad is heartbreaking! just read gig of the day, and my god that bitch does NOT move his face! most we get is a vein popping in the jaw lolol
if i was smarter, i’d blame it on misogyny w a sprinkle of heteronormativity, and explain how something something, seme’s treated as the man and uke’s treated as the woman, something something women stereotyped as emotional and hysterical and men are sooo calm and rational and thus expressionless. ty for coming to my ted talk..?
nooo i’m sad that the long haired homeless teen is dead. he seemed so innocent and sweet, i blame that doctor that works with seok. the kid immediately got scared when he came to their cafeteria table, he’s def up to some nefarious shit.
mc is better than me bc im hitting up dispatch not even 10 minutes later. BOOP there goes your idol career! i would’ve put a stop to that shit swiftly, every knet website would’ve had a post from meee. i wish mc gave a fuck sometimes, but i know ml might handle it bc i hope this bullying backstory isn’t steeped under the rug.
ik mc says that’s just how he is, but do these things really just slide off your shoulders like water? does none of it hurt, or none of it stick to you? i wonder if he internalizes what’s said to him even if he doesn’t react outwardly (i.e. when he’s treated like an alien, he treats others as aliens)
like i wonder if he’ll reach a boiling point where he lets everyone get some. or maybe he really is alien in nature (i say this lovingly). he def doesn’t give as much of a fuck about conventional things the way most people do, and i love that, but i wonder how much of the cruelty he dealt with had a toll on him. clearly it is now, with how hes convinced ml will leave him and the relationship won’t last long, but iskkk
whenever i see the kid i can’t help hearing “who’s damn white baby is that?” LMFAOO
