well….the guy said “hurt him in a way no one can see” then they all ripped off his clothes to do *inexplicit things to him that required them to hold him down* so…and it is (unfortunately) not an uncommon bl trope in angsty or violent stories like these so my mind just made that conclusion. could be wrong ig. i want to be wrong (ToT) but the imagery is similar so…idk idk…def still a form of SA tho
No, pretty sure they said to “beat him where no one can see”, took his clothes off (which is SA) to beat him up in places that his clothes cover. I’m like 95% sure it wasn’t r*pe. It was also in a classroom too. U right, that trope in BL is common (especially as a fetish/fantasy, not actual trauma), but I don’t think that’s the case here.
"Hey that's enough, his mom and my mom know each other, if they find out about this thing'll get annoying"
"Unless you do it in a way that wont show"
They never said beat him up in a way that wont show, this line is closer to what the other person said which is "Hurt him in a way that wont show" and then they cut to 1 of them bent in the front and another one bent over near his head
I'm 95% sure that indicates rape, it's a semi common bl trope to have homophobic characters rape the mc so it doesn't matter if they're homoplphobic.
Then again this could all be interpreted as just a beating, so I'd say it's left to the reader to decide.
But we have seen this author have the balls to give Cirrus such a horrid backstory so I wouldn't be surprised if it was confirmed that he was gangraped.
Don't try to get on someone for spreading misinformation when the info you're spreading is just as incorrect, ya'll both can be right here ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
Really? I guess up to interpretation then. I think it indicates beating up, I just seen this type of thing in webtoons a lot, like “do it in a way won’t show” so they beat the victim on stomach etc. or undress someone for humiliation. I feel like if it was rape it would have been indicated in a clearer manner like with cirrus
They didn't rape him and you're the one giving misinformation? Lol Read the chapter again, they were beating Skylar up then Skylar's ex best friend told them to not hit him in the face because his mother will find out and that he doesn't want any problems so they should do it where it's not visible.
that old best friendo is a PSYCHO. i know we should leave him in the past cuz if thats wut skylar wants then okay, but—-okay even if u felt like your “friendship and brotherhood” was betrayed by him giving you one nonconsensual peck on the lips while he was drunk, WHO in their GADAMN RIGHT MIND would respond by leading a group of guys to beat him up and g*ngr*pe him while u fuckin watch?!? like, 0 to a FUCKIN HUNDRED much?!?! not to even mention destroying his whole social life with the rumors… im actually still shocked like he is actually a good fckin actor to be hiding those PSYCHOPATHIC TENDENCIES during their almost TEN YEAR relationship. you EVIL MOTHERFUCKER i hope you end up jobless, no highschool diploma, friendless, bald, and live a THOUSAND TIMES more lonely and miserable than u made Skylar for the REST OF YOUR LIFE until you die alone in an alley with no one to even see or care for your body before the rats and vultures come to eat away at the remains. And i hope in your last moments, you remember the friend that would’ve cared had you not thrown him away and stepped all over him like you did. I hope the regret eats away at you more than the rot does.
