Poopsiaetas's manga / #Top Tier Representation(4)

#Domestic Violence #Abusive relationship #Uke ends up starving self #Ex cheats on uke #Ex tries to fake being straight even by hurting uke #Ex marries a woman #Uke and seme break up #Uke and seme get back together #Healing #Uke learns to have healthy relationship Love it. Love it, love it, love it. Not really because of the Uke/Seme or even the smut, but because of the portrayal of why many victims go back to their abusers. Why many victims choose to unhealthy relationships over healthy ones. Why it was the Ex who had to push away Uke even when Uke began pretty much starving himself and was getting beaten up by Ex. It was very emotional and well-drawn. And I loved the parallels of the Ex who did pretty much every shitty thing he could do to Uke vs Seme, who even got mad when Uke was trying to force the issue of unsafe sex.

#Slice of life #What it's like to have a stutter #Ableism #Ignorance #Learning about disability #Accepting disability #Self-acceptance #Cool seme #Cute uke #Stoic seme not-so-stoic with uke #Businessman/Janitor #Popular seme/Unpopular uke Yo. YOOOO. Character with a speech disability!! Characterization is fantastic for both Seme and Uke. I love that the Seme was put in his place about what it means to have a disability. It's very easy to misunderstand the more 'invisible' disabilities like speech impediments, so manga takes the time to educate people by showing what stutterers face on a daily basis. In this case, Uke has a stutter and he is a sensitive person. Thus, he was never treated in a way that maximized his potential, leading him to also develop social anxiety. To be clear, Uke does not have a stutter as a result of social anxiety, but has social anxiety from being mistreated for having a stutter.

#Uke has shame and humiliation kink #Uke gets off on dangerous situations #Uke has high self-hatred #Seme comes along to give aftercare following sex #Shows seme that uke deserves respect and to be treated with love #Uke was raped and in abusive relationship #Suicide attempt at end by uke's ex #Protective seme #Insecure uke #Tough seme and uke #Police force #Detective Also, gdi, the smut here is good. The relationship between Uke and Seme are good. The portrayal, plot, and characterization is good. Ex-partner guy saying "I love you" & "Can you compensate me for the crime of making me live?" were MEMORABLE. Also, the fact that Seme has a bullet wound on abdomen from saving Uke & then later, Uke gets bullet wound on thigh from saving Seme...that was gahdang poetic. :') The only thing I don't quite get was how Seme ended up getting his shame-and-humiliation kink. I think Uke's partner was the 'friend' that guy in chp 3 talked about, where the rape of Uke was alluded to. So he took advantage of Uke's sex addiction to start abusive relationship.

#Dacryphilia #Seme comes onto uke because of his tears #So dubcon is there #But uke consents to sleeping with seme #So no rape yayayayayyyy #Uke was cheated on by his ex #Ex was also very pushy in wanting to get back with uke #Pretty sure uke and ex had abusive and/or toxic relationship #Also please do not do what uke does and follow a stranger home xD #Uke be glad that it was seme jfcljf;ejf Oh. Oh wow. Just. Wow. I'm not expert nor do I have any experience with it, but I feel like this is a great representation of people who experience sexual addictions. The way Seme's guilt and shame permeated in every aspect of his person's life, which lead to isolation, was freaking heartbreaking. It showed just how much he was in need of someone who made him feel human, but there was no one there to help him deal with it. There was no one there with whom he could be truthful and that just worsened his feelings of ostracization. What really killed me was how wholly Uke accepted Seme. I was just. He understood that there was some physiological reaction to Seme's dacryphilia and, in the context of their relationship, even came to love Seme's love for tears. For Uke, it was like a representation of what brought them together and he felt at home whenever Seme licked away his tears. This full-hearted acceptance is what helped Seme differentiate between the sexual arousal for Uke's tears and the genuine love he felt for Uke, tears included. This was really great to read. :')
