Discipline Me. Melt Me. Expose Me. Love Me.
A sub returns to his small town and falls into a relationship with an old friend from high-school, who is a dom. He insists that praise and care (and kissing!) are his hard limits but his worried dom finally realises that was not the case. I would say interesting take on the dom/sub verse, but I've already read it in fanfiction. It's still good, though, and would like to see how the relationship develops. Edit: I think I understand Sumio's trauma a lot better now. His parents really neglected his needs, huh. And so he learnt to supress any need for kindness and consideration, whether it be as a sub or otherwise. I wonder if that's why he presented so late. I think Itsumo is great for him, but that's neither here nor there. Itsumo would be a great partner for anyone who should be so lucky. I really appreciate that this story touches on the fact that doms have needs too. And finally, while I really do want to to dislike the meddling side couple, I do think their criticism of Sumio for going into the brothel is very valid. Still, overall, a really solid read. I adore how openly, sickeningly affectionate they are now. 4.75/5
The Dreaming Trainer’s Ideal Master
hmmm. let's see... Edit: 1: Fumiya, a staff member working for a black market slave trader (the "slaves" are there by their own free will) gets bought by Kyo, a lonely, disillusioned rich guy. I still have some reservations. Obviously, the trade and it's purpose has been explained, but I just want him to be able to hurry and work off the debt. But I'm glad Kyo has been good to him, for the most part. And, Fumiya definitely feeds my competence kink. What a smart, dependable little cupcake my baby is. 4.85 2: Second story about a delinquent, who even after graduating high school, reatined a bit of a reputation and follower base, and a down-in-the-dumps, exhausted salary man. They're good together, dammit. It was just a one night stand to start with, why is this so fulfilling T.T 4.85
Master Of Master
Euncheol is a dude with a bdsm/humiliation/ play kink, which is difficult enough on it's own, but things become *really* twisted whwn his dog (Jonggu) turns into a human and they fall into a friends with benefits kind of situation. I don't know. I just. I'm drained. I guess it's good they're happy, but Euncheol made their lives so miserable just because he couldn't understand his own feelings. He's one selfish guy. Also, I just feel bad for poor Jooseong. He's quite the basket of issues himself, but I can see why, you know. That would mess most people up, yeah. I just. I'm tired out. My eyes are puffy from ugly crying. I don't know. 4.8
Osanajimi ga Do M de Tsundere Nan Desu ga
Susume is a super M who prefers no-strings-attached relationships and Momo is his neighbour and childhood friend who is willing to do anything to be with him. The age gap isn't weird. But the fact that Susume watched Momo grow up is definitely uncomfortable. Susume should have tried to push him away more. Overall, it would be a hot and interesting story, otherwise. 4.4
The King Likes to Bully Me
The plot would be interesting if it weren't dragging in for fucking ever. This is getting boring fast.
Hitomebore Shita Hito ga Do-M Datta Mono de
Shouta, regular salaryman, meets Misaki, rope artist, at a SM club and they hit it off like nobody's business. I love the characters! Love Misaki, he's so damn brave and strong, goddammit. Shouta, I'd love a lover with Shota's depth and character. Ahhh. So good! Traumatic. But good. 5
How to Train a Good-for-Nothing Rich Boy
The uke is a spoiled little shit. But I actually feel terrible for him. Both can be true. That's no way to treat someone. I really want him to stand up for himself, gosh. Edit: Oh, dammit. He's going to get his little heart broken, isn't he. Edit: Looks like his arsehole brother still hasn't gotten the memo! He's only realising he was wrong because the elder brother's death may have been a murder? That's just. Wow. Give this man a medal, I guess. For being the worst pos brother ever. Also, why are all the evil bitches teaming up together?! Poor kid's got it hard T.T Ch 65
Sugar to Mustard
I loved the characters. I loved the story. Normally it would be a 4.9. But because the author treated that arsehole's psychological warfare as normal behaviour in a d/s partnership, I gotta mark this down. 4.3
