Were the side stories worth the wait? Perhaps not entirely, but I appreciate the direction author-nim went with them.
Not vanilla, but less rapey, humiliating and disrespectful and victim-blamy.
idk what to tell you man. if you read non/dub-con fiction, you can't be upset when the author continues down that road.
It never was non con. It was a shonen ai and seyuk is seen multiple times stopping before he went to far. He also punishes hamin for nothing. Like, seyuk knew he has friends and they going for a coffee? How does he deserve to be raped for it by the men he loves?
The author fucked up here. And dub con isn't even half as bad and full way non on in my personal opinion. At least in dubcon the attacker stops hallways.
not sure what point you're trying to make. the author clearly had a vision. Sehyuk is a mad dog that wants to drag Hamin down to his lowly level. It doesn't matter that Sehyuk loves Hamin in his own twisted way; the man will never be caring or consenting, so it's pointless to be upset when Sehyuk acts exactly the way he's been portrayed the entire series.
feels like we're gonna have to agree to disagree, as you seem to think you're owed some kind of happy-ending-redemption
Aint no way y'all thought these were gonna be some vanilla and consensual seggs scenes. Sehyuk voiced his desire to violate Hamin numerous times and was predatory their entire story.
