This is picking ngl y’all just keep searching for bad aspects instead of seeing it as it really is yeah six obv like Marlon a lot bc of their past but their current relationship is perfectly fine and it’s not toxic or abusive and btw age difference is not that crazy as long as they’re both adults and not something like 50 years age difference (I’m exaggerating on purpose)
this is just sad. sixx is clearly twisted up in some fundamental way that propels him to fulfilling his semi-obsession and votive devotion to marlon, whereas marlon is an amoral, insecure man seeking validation through a warped, severely unbalanced, and honestly a bit abusive, relationship with a man over a decade younger than him.
the power dynamics are so uneven, and even if (when) this does develop into some half-cooked form of love, i don't see how any of them will emerge better.
though tbh this just might make the story more interesting. so i'll just think of it as a piece of general fiction and less so some raunchy, supernatural romance.
