Pain isn't abnormal. He's a dom with stronger pheromones than Butal, so he dominated and had sex with Brutal. That's normal in vampire society of this book--the strong dominate in every way, including sexually. What abnormal in this society is being strong and choosing or enjoying a submissive role. This society values strength and choosing submission is like wanting to be a "loser".
We know homosexuality isn't a problem because the vampires can have same-sex marriages and there are plenty of open homosexual scenes. We know perfume boy (Shell's ex fiance whose name I temporarily forgot) was a sub--and that's what made him abnormal. Shell wasn't at all at risk for being gay--he's "shameful" secret is that he's a sub.
Ahhhh!!! Σ( ￣□￣||) no wonder, it makes sense now. Thank you, that helps a lot hahaha
Now that i remember, if what youre saying is right, then Shell wouldn't be abnormal at all since One apparently doesnt react to Shell's strong pheromone (means that Eric is way stronger than Shell).
Heehee, well, the fact that Shell *wants* to be dominates is an issue. When he was going to get married and he confesses his kink, it's a deal breaker for the other sub. And no one knows One isn't just a human. :)
Oh man, how beautiful shell is.
It looks like the history is repeating itself. Since shell has Pain's blood in his veins, they both are "abnormal"
Ugh, even in a fiction, fantasy manga... they could have called it something like, divergent. WHY "abnormal"?! ┗( T﹏T )┛
