I think maybe he did not consider being gay is normal. While him like the friend, it never cross his mind that other can do too.
You're right he could cry into a pillow! But its a different type of comfort yk? It doesn't have to be because he's interested in MC. Hugging someone and knowing they're there for you is way warmer of a feeling.
(Sorry kinda went on a rant TLDR: It's annoying because its forceful and disrespecrful)(￣∇￣")
You see the thing for me is that i get why hes doing it and i understand your point that It's just a diferent type of comfort (〜￣△￣)〜 BUTTTTT the thing is that he was annoying about it, the mc had already saved him from the other friend, then took him to the infermary, patted him on the back then put ointment on him, these were all things that he had no obligation to do but still did because he views this little guy as a friend and because he is just a good person.ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
For the guy to hug him tightly with no concent, its disrespect of the guy's personal space. When it comes to this kind of physical touch, personaly, i would not like it if it were just imposed on me with no prior agreement on my part, it would be very violationg of my personal space an boundaries, but thats me personaly. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
What gets me the most is him not leting go after being asked to do so, that is annoying, It's forceful and just all around infuriating(╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I see! I forgot to take MC's feeling into consideration too. It's frustrating being kinda tied down when you're trying to do something!
Ok so the little one didnt do anything wrong and i should feel bad for him. But i am with the haters on this one the way he was hugging him from behind and acting like a baby got on my nerves. He could have cried into the pillow but he is into mc thats why he wants to be comforted by him in a touchy feely way that honestly gets on my nerves. I prefer characters who try to be strong and not inconvenience people but hes like no dont leave me! When mc repeatedly asks to leave. But again he didnt do anything wrong persay. Mc is kind of leading him on though if i was him i would think he liked me back.
