The story is truly good, even if I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It's draining and painful, and at points makes me want to scream and sob.
The writing is amazing, tho. The phasing and the characters... It's really well done. But it does indeed get too much at some points. Not a good read when you're in a bad mental space. It is a tragedy, after all...

I always get my hopes up, and then they make the og FL a rival. Can we just have a smart woman who's world doesn't revolve around the MLs??? Or did "Beware of the Villainess" left the bar too high for my standards?
I might marinate this, bc I wanna skip the rivalry arc... I will keep my hopes up that they will at some point become friends...

I understand that the age difference was so the time skip wouldn't make things weird between them but
1) Things where weird anyway since they where 8 and 20???
2) They made someone else go through the frozen time with her, just so we didn't lose the SML so it was possible to make them the same age from the beginning...
3) I just want to see Ludel. Can you just show him to me so I can drop this?

I'll start my rant by saying: I love this story. It's toxic, it's unapologetically messy, the writing is good and the art beautiful. Now...
Minwoo is an obsessive weirdo and silver hair is a piece of garbage.
Mc is wrong for allowing Minwoo to get that comfortable with him, since he was actually aware of his feelings (he said himself that he was trying to deny it), but he was already introduced as a weak minded person, so obviously he was scared to lose one of his beloved person. Still wrong, horrible.
Minwoo and his supporters need therapy, since you can't actually want to support his love for MC... "Love", bc he only wants the Mc's version that he idolized, not the trashy clearly not innocent one. The worst part? He's still the less worst option of an ML...
And silver hair?! HOLY SHIT HE SUCKS SO FUCKING MUCH DAMN I HATE HIS TRASH SELF MORE THAN I HATE THE JINX'S ONE (And yes, I'm incapable to remember their names, I hate them. My brain works like that).
I still would say yes to Minwoo. I'm sorry. But I can fix him. (I can't. I'm coping, I'm telling my therapist about this as well)
