Having a strong step dad, I love this. Loving someone else's child is a choice. And Jun's and Toma's relationship and 'Mama' + Son is so fricking adorable I could die. He becomes so invested in Toma's well being that he is a big old Momma Bear. I love this and it just makes me giggle how Daiki's own crew are like "Yeah, you've lost to your son dude, live with it."
Am I right, is Young Seo's Brother???? I think I'm wrong... But he referred to himself as a big brother and Seo said he was texting his Brother... I know culturally close friends are known as Brother, but then wouldn't he be Hyung? I'm loosing it here after what I saw Young do to Seo in previous chapters... I mean Young is ONE BIG RED FLAG, he has been practicing Classical Conditioning on Seo since childhood.
And you can see the clear effects on him through his erratic behaviour towards relationships and sex. His association with sex and Young, and how he's trying to deprogram himself. There is also a direct parrell between his association between love and alcohol. The ill-fated confession, the fact he can only see Lee alone while drunk when they have sex. And of course he only drinks heavily when he's encountered Young (including being manipulated after Young told him Jae had found a girlfriend), it's like he's in withdrawal from Young and alcohol is the next best thing.
I'm not surprised Lee can't see this, and I can't blame him for not noticing yet. It is so difficult to spot when you can only see half of what's going on. But I think he's starting to realise. And he's doing his best, but he's also feeding into Seo's dependancy right now. Even the act of sex at school, it was intoxicating to Seo, despite his better judgement, and Lee is too enthralled right now to notice the warning signs.
I wouldn't even be mad if Young is Seo's brother. Although I usually hate that trope. He is clearly set up as a villain, and has caused massive trauma to Seo. It's sad to say, but this does happen. And so, while I think it is an honorific, either way, the author has done an incredible job so far of portraying this kind of systematic programming. And how that can and does effect people later on in life. Down to the cabinet Seo want's to get rid of, but can't. And the fact that no matter how much he doesn't want to, he cannot help but agree to what Young wants. It become as much apart of him as breathing.
Sorry for the rant. It's just this has blown my mind so far!!
I actually couldn't breathe! The tone and flow of this is just too fucking funny... my everything hurts from laughing so damn hard! The characters are sooo funny and just pitch perfect for something like this! How do I get into this SCHOOL??? LMAO ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
This Author has such a knack for creating amazing characters... but Kokoro... he is so precious! I have never seen someone look that adorable while being jealous. ヾ(☆▽☆)
I have the urge to protect LMFAO
I am so glad he is with Haji Xxx
An erection isn't consent. I hate this trope so damn much, because it's just as bad as saying "Well she came so it wasn't rape", they are one and the same. Stimulating the body against someone's will, will have the same response. It doesn't mean they want it, it is just their body reacting against what they actually want to happen.
I have seen the line "But you're so erect right now, so why are you saying 'NO'," in so many different forms in so many of these that it just pisses me off and this trope needs to die.
I couldn't even finish this, I got to chapter 3 and wondered how I had got that far. But the second Atsu called Tou a Masocist I bailed. You don't get to decide that for someone, it is something your partner tells you. This is essentially a rape fantasy and I don't want to think what would happen when the other guy comes into play.
If Atsu was a real person he would be in prison by the time he was in his mid teens early 20s for this shit. I can't stand it.
Hwi is one of my favourite Seme's to date. He's such a great mix of strong and adorable, with actual respect for Param!
And Param is my favourite Uke in a comedy. His mannerisms and innocence is so sweet. He goes through a lot to get where he is, and having such bad experiences early in life meaning he shut himself off from that side of himself to focus on his career while his body went "PAY ATTENTION TO ME!!" It is understandable how he ends up in the situations he does.
Jun is just best girl for life! I love how she's like... "I'm only going to meddle a little." :)
Han, as much as I appreciate his past, and his present behaviour... He can still go fuck himself for not only how he treated Param and making the nicest Uke CRY!! But also for how he treated his past partners. I hope the guy with the earrings finds happiness.
The Side Stories... OMG! I died laughing! I can't wait to see just how much of that shop Param bought. I'm curious to see if he got the tail. hmmm.
The boys were brilliant and I loved it more the second read through!
