I think different people take different situations differently. We can t just classify something as "rape". Rowell liked it ( he wasn t really fighting it ).. And later he reacted in different way than regular people ( but he had some problems ). And I think he already had some sort of affection for Dev.
Yea they were searching but at the party noah told Dev they were killedthats why they stopped looking for them. Bc they dead
Yes, everyone has l different view. But sex without consent is still rape, and Rowell sure hasn't gave his consent
Dev said he forced himself on him and Rowell didn't say consent to it in the first place
The story was an okay one for me. First I like the art, really really beautiful , but the plot was kinda off, so many things needed more explanations, like the fact that searching for his mom and sis was an important part of the plot but then their death just took few lines of the whole story as if it was nothing. I also don't like the fact that Dev forced Lowell to have sex with him (which I call rape), but then it was like it was not a big deal. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
