I've been one of this comic's biggest defenders
But this chapter pushed me over the fucking edge and I'm seriously irritated
I've related a lot to the characters and the motions they're going through so I thought it was all very intentional and well written
But something about this chapter feels like it tossed it all out the fucking window and I actually don't trust that this author is even competent and isn't just jerking everyone around on purpose
On second thought, it's fucking Dami
Fuck Dami
I hate that guy.
He needs to just like go die quietly off screen or smth
The recent chapters with Dami were actually okay ? He has some interesting interactions with Joon
But the way Doha reacts and interacts with Dami feel so fucking unacceptable I fucking hate them and this chapter reminded me of that x100. Doha does not have the acceptable boundaries in place when it comes to Dami, especially knowing Dami still likes him and knowing how Dami has treated (and continues to treat) Joon since highschool (something the author themself just completely moved on from as if he wasn't totally manipulative and abusive)
Everyone has been pissed as fuck at Joon especially for not communicating (and yk choosing to have sex instead of talking, but that's a fair point actually) but it's FUCKING DOHA
Throughout their relationship, he hasn't shown up for Joon and hasn't proved he's a safe person for Joon to be emotionally vulnerable with and still prioritizes his friendship with FUCKING DAMI (fuck Dami, Jesus Christ)
He has this moment with Joon where things are starting to look up when they've been really tense for a while but instead of just being there in the moment and being with his boyfriend and maybe working to figure things out and continue to bridge the gap that's been growing between them by playing out this nice moment, no let's make sure we answer this very urgent call from Dami.
And the worst part is how the author seems so nonchalant about how toxic Dami is and has always been. He's played almost like a comedic foil to Joon rather than the antagonist he actually is.
I'm really just tired at this point . . . This has been one of my favorite stories until this point, despite all the jerking around and lack of communication. I thought the author was really doing something but this just feels stupid now and I don't know if it's even worth it to see how they end up.
Dami and Doha have places one and two on my shitlist, but the author themselves is slowly clawing their way up to #3
