i honestly love how the artist presents ruts. the aggression and sheer force is what i’ve pictured, and between alphas even more so. they managed to really encapsulate the relationship of alpha x alpha well2024-04-23 06:57 marked

beyond the hot dynamic b/w brett and hayden, i also love how immersive the story is - like it feels so true to an american (ivy league?) college. the dialogue is so excellent you really get a sense of the character's personalities even the side characters. i've read the raws and it just gets better and better...blaming losers for giving this a low rating when it's like a top 3 bl out there2024-04-23 06:52 marked
Honestly I don’t mind these kind of stories as long as both mc and ml are fucked up in the head and it’s not just one sided2024-04-23 06:45 marked
Hayden straight up telling Brett he KNOWS he was bullshitting about wolves and sheep is a POWER MOVE. Hayden is saying that he saw through how Brett was trying to manipulate him. This is him asserting power ie. “I was NOT manipulated by you, I KNEW and yet I CHOSE to take your hand.” He's establishing his agency and how he's not just going to be another person that Brett plays around with.Right now you can tell Hayden is clearly still suspicious of Brett. Meanwhile, we still don't really know what Brett is thinking because he seems so unpredictable and so flighty, things are kind of a game to him. He's not necessarily a bad person btw!!! He's just clear about what he wants, and he'll give equal benefit to the other person so it's "fair"

just reiterating the similar points said in the comments, the characterizations and their associated themes, i find that the exploration of hayden’s conflict with animalistic urges and their associations with romance and sex to be a very interesting concept. using the abo AU feels like a great way to explore that, especially when the other party is of equal standing yet views things in a different way. the unpredictability that brett enjoys and the claim of “realistic pursuits” for handling the more animalistic natures of sex being pitted against hayden’s desire for control of biological needs and a higher emotional association with them; it’s definitely enjoyable to see more romance series explore ideologies in ways that aren’t considered conventional, yet relay a significant message the same.

This chapter lays out how Hayden and Brett are different really well:Hayden believes that humans can, and should, rise above their “animal” instinct; he finds concepts like nobility, sacrifice and love very attractive. Brett is a “realist” and find those concepts ridiculous, and thinks there is nothing wrong w/ just accepting your nature.
Brett is also a huge thrill seeker and adrenaline junkie. He likes taking risks and unpredictability. He doesn't like plays bc he doesn’t like the fact that an ending is already decided by someone else. He likes football because he likes how the ending could go differently every time.
this is how Brett keeps dominance; ie. he likes unpredictability bc he doesn't want anyone deciding his "story"/"fate".
But what’s interesting is that Hayden writes scripts; so he’s the one who “decides” on the ending when he writes. So fundamentally Hayden and Brett have incompatible personalities and expectations. In some ways this is kind of a fight for “power” between two alphas with their notions of how the world should operate. Which is why this is SOOOO GOOOD.

Its good in the portrayal of enforced societal norms on lgbtq+ people but its sort of not that good in the way that it shows love as fixed. Throughout the manga, characters around mc and mc both acknowledge that the love when you get hard is different to ‘love’ love. Personally, I don’t really like this as it insinuates that eros is not a love however phillia is true ‘love’ love but then mc’s actions go against this when he starts beliveing otherwise; going completely astray from his previous conclusion.This pushes the narrative that love is love only when you feel sexual attraction which is further implied when mc says he ‘like-likes’ the girl, with no references to platonic love, explaining his feelings as like instead of love. It is also harmful in the way that it suggests that if two men like each other they are gay, If two women like each other they are lesbian, and if a man and woman like each other they are straight. It categorises people of the lgbtq+ into boxes which is exactly against the poing of the lgbtq+ movement. Giving them only three boxes as it does in this manga disregards the fact that bisexual, pansexual or even people who are sexually attracted to one gender but not romantically attracted cant exist. This is a very real and uplifting manga however it’s clear that the author only has gay men in mind thus making this quite a toxic read because of it’s (perhaps unintentional) underlying messages.2024-04-22 19:31 marked
As (kinda) good as this read was, i found it shallow. The themes weren’t really handled with care and for the author to touch on the surface of pedophilia but draw an underaged girls boobs and an underage boy having sex it fell through. So much could have been said and you can tell this was written for straight people and not queer people at all. Honestly disappointing since I was looking forward to this dynamic between the mc and his gf. I’m also very upset his girlfriend was written so one dimensional. Ok i lied this read was ass. Go read Blue flag yall.2024-04-22 19:29 marked
I grew up in an area where if you didn't want to be friends with racists or homophobes, you didn't have friends. I would call them out on it, but having one person telling you you're wrong amongst a sea of people who are telling you you're right doesn't change a thing. Except for those beliefs, there were some genuinely good people. It's kind of ha......

try to get them help. I don't think it is possible to just start hating a person after all of that... if they really want to cause harm or enjoy people being harmed then all I can do is to try to help them correct themselves. plus if you just let them go I think they'll probably hate said group even more. isn't that in a way being there for them at......

I'm laughing. I just found there was a case where an author stated they own the omegaverse trope in court. I can't stop smiling and laughing imagining the judge, lawyers learning about omegaverse. Context: an omegaverse erotica author1 accused another author2 of the same genre of plagiarism or something because they use the same tropes/cliche. Au......
