Love Strongly, Surprise!
chubby cutie became a personal trainer. the protag liked him in school, never confessed and then became sexergizer. after he want to church he couldn't get it up for 4 year. funny story, liked it because it covered themes as religious guilt and domestic abuse while being really funny.

7 chapter so it was weirdly paced BUT the story was super cute: re encounter after years of yearning from both sides. bodyguard × actor where the bodyguard was scared when they were younger that if the public knew the actor was gay it would've ended their carrer. the bodyguard is a buff bottom gnam
Sunshine Shower
I guess there will be some side stories BUT I almost hated this. the ML has a mental disorder and knows about it, the MC is the worst, he's stupid asf, cannot knowledge things. the two of them cannot deal shit with eachother so I think the end doesn't resolve anything. the whole story is based on the MC thinking his childhood friend has a perfect life and everything and he doesn't want to confess to him because he feels he's gonna ruin their relationship, while on the other end ML is a psychopath who can't understand/feel emotions and he's very controlling/biggest red flag toward the MC. It pissed me so mauch off that I started liking it(?) and I thounght that in the end they could've talked loudly and proud about what they felt about eachother BUT NO. I also kept going because I loved ML's insanity, actually loved it. plot: MC returns after doing his military service which he started abruptly as a way to escape the fact that ML had a girlfriend (which he had JUST to show MC that he was normal so that he would keep him by his side. side note: I JUST WANTED TO SEE ML AND THE ROOMATE OF MC MEET FUCK.also I wanted to see the roomate's bf.
Banana Scandal
Absolutely amazing. I LOVED IT. So it start with a couple that is very fluff and cute (even if it's kinda strage the fact that the bottom discovers that the top liked because he sees him jerk off to him while he pretends he's sleeping-> WHICH IS CRAZY because the top of the other couple was TRAUMATIZED while he was young because a ped does it to him. anyway I loved either couple but the second one made me cry my eyes out, I think the author improved SO much between the 3 seasons. since the end of the second season to the end of the series it was the best. the story talked about so many things that WOW simply majestic: religion and religious guilt, dysfunction families, sexual violence and pedophilia. the bottom encountered such a good personal growth and became so much more secure of himself, on the other end the top could learn how to be vulnerable and leans on his dear ones. the part that absolutely killed me was where the top talks about his trauma with the ped, I couldn't feel closer to him while he explained. so many little things killed me though: the facct that the bottom living in a religious house as his father was the head of a famous church in Corea, he couldn't wear his cshirt without being all buttoned up properly while felling suffocated, and he's really the top who is the first to tell him to leave some of the button unbuttoned; or the fact that the top wouldn't say what he was going through while he was young because he didn't want to worry her parents, and then he had his first great corean friend(the bottom) who kissed while he was asleep and then years when he confessed him what he has been going through while he was younger it just clicks to the other while they were making love and he coundn't story saying sorry, but instead he told he that there were better words he could say in that moment (ily). only thing I didn't like so much it was that some of the characters that I loved want a little left behind, as the first couple, but I did understand how the author felt saying that there wasn't left nothing anymore to say about them because they would find a way and love eachother forever. ps: I loved how the whole atmosphere changed between 2 and 3 season showing how much their relationship became healthy. loved that when they met after two years the top cried as an inconsolable puppy saying that he waited for him for soooo long TTTT
Love History Caused by Willful Negligence
leggere su manta il volume 2 del novel. AMATO TOTALMENTE. veramente bello, uno tra i pochi che ho onestamente letto dopo averlo iniziato perchè la trama mi ha completamente risucchiato. la trama è incentrata sul bottom che dopo aver stabilizzato la sua salute(è nato con una malformazione al cuore) si trasferisce in corea per avere la sua vendetta su un attore ma anche suo conoscente. il top è l'attore che sarebbe la "causa" della morte della migliore amica del bottom (anche se in realtà lei si è suicidata a causa della sua malattia mentale) e il piano sarebbe di trovare delle evidences sul fatto che il top sia una persona orribile. Di fatto lui è una persona orribile ma solo perchè soffre di disturbo antisociale di personalità. in realtà pian piano di capisce che il bottom è di fatto diventato uno stalker e che in realtà a lui piaceva già da quando Jenny era ancora viva. la storia diventa crazy quando il bottom cerca di andarsene e il top (un pazzo violento sempre per il suo disturbo) letteralmente lo imprigiona e gli fa fare rapporti sessuali con lui (ma non è così brutto come sembra pk come già detto anche il bottom è mezzo fuori di testa, CNC). come sempre io adoro il Top che è un pazzo da legare, e empatizzo molto con lui e per il suo dolore(diventa attore perchè letteralmente lui per tutta la sua vita deve fingere di essere normale per piacere alle persone attorno a lui). I CANNOT get over the fact that he fucking killed a person to save his fucking carrer like WTF. adoro come he struggled when he thought that the top left him after he confessed all his mental problems to him. I love that he CARES for him in the end, he even makes him make the choice of returning to him WICH is insane for a person like him to do that when he literrally tried to control the bottom in every way possible, confiscating his passport, his phone and so on. Devo dire che ancora più crazy è il bottom che RITORNA da lui quando sa come è violento controlling and everything else. vabbe bellissima storia e trama, it didn't make me cry but sometimes it was SO insane what was happening, like this is one of the craziest shit I ever read. ps: favorite lines: "I read that letter hundred, no thousands of times, over sbd over again, when it got to the point where I was jerking off ehile reading it" BECAUSE wdym it was supposed to be a sweet and fragile moment and then he just says that. he's a comedian.
