yeah and what did Cirrus do?? blackmail him, embarrass him in front of his crush by bringing ra in in the picture. breaking his heart and then suddenly falling in love and almost outing him to the fucking world. and ofc stirring trouble in chan li's relationship THAT HE HIMSELF STARTED bcs of his insecurities. Skylar has trust issues too but we don't see him pulling such bs. to me the only weird and inappropriate thing he did was the one with the photos. but even then Cirrus used it for his own intentions and not because he really cared about chan li.
master manipulator, the kind Kendrick would rap abt
Jesus, the kind Kendrick would rap about? You just hate Cirrus. And you’re brushing over the photos thing and the physical assault, that is serious, it is violating and creepy, and the author had to work overtime in every other aspect to make Skylar sympathetic because what he did was really weird and creepy. And if he wasn’t creepy and weird Cirrus wouldn’t have any leverage, I personally would have reported Skylar if I found out, have some kind of paper trail. And the physical assault!!!!!!! Also Chan Il is allowed to have relationships, Chan Il is Cirrus’s friend and Ri-in is a precious friend to Cirrus so I truly don’t think his intentions were solely manipulative. Also he didn’t stir trouble man, he was in a really terrible situation and he needed support. Ask your girlfriend what happened not the dude you suspect who is also you’re friend, like what even is that move??????
ye exactly what Skylar did was creepy like disturbing but Cirrus decided it was time to make himself better and use it against Skyler (ofc) but also against chan li since he didn't report it, didn't tell him and in the last chapters showing how he didn't like the way chan li was being "nice" to Skylar because it reminded of himself.
im not a Skylar fan but i sure am a cirrus hater (hater is a strong world, disliker maybe??)
broski come on
Chan Il is Cirrus’s friend and Ri-in is a precious friend to Cirrus so I truly don’t think his intentions were solely manipulative
im sorry but cirrus clearly holds some kind of grudge against chan li the moment he saw him being "nice" to Skylar bcs it reminded him of himself
and im pretty sure it is very clear that his only intentions WERE solely manipulative, bcs he wanted to show to skylar u can't do anything abt it even tho he knew it himself, he wanted to remind him of the position skylar was
Also he didn’t stir trouble man, he was in a really terrible situation and he needed support.
I myself, the last thing i would want when i find myself in a shit situation is having a precious friend that has been nothing but nice to me, misunderstanding the situation and thinking the worst abt me and their relationship.
CIRRUS CLEARLY CAN'T DO THAT SHIT
in my perspective, yes Cirrus has been through A LOT, not even knowing what its like being loved since a child. But that doesn't give a free pass to destroy those around you. Skylar isn't a saint either, but with everything Cirrus does we don't even get the chance to see that side of Skylar, only a little at the beginning. What we mostly see is Skylar knowing what love is (in a family), finding it (romantically) and being shattered by it, to the point even his family had to suffer from it. And yet here he is giving it a chance again but every damn angsty chapter is some shit cirrus stirred that is now backfiring and making Skylar afraid of being used again. Like...what even is the point ??? i just don't understand his (cirrus) intentions or what exactly he is trying to achieve
.
Are we all forgetting the reason Cirrus could literally blackmail Skylar is because Skylar was being a creep? Just imagine you and your friend hanging out and then you find folders of pictures of yourself self collected and kept on their devices? I would vomit, I would feel disgusted, betrayed, and so scared. Because you wouldn’t think they only took those pictures innocently, you’d also think they did things with them and once you know it is like unconsensually being the subject of someone’s fantasies, which is disturbing. No, this is not the same as collecting pics of your idol, this is a person you have a close relationship with and you know personally. This is so creepy and weird. I don’t know why everyone is acting like Skylar is some saint here and has never done something wrong and Cirrus was some villain who did crazy shit to him unprompted, and that Cirrus is the only unhinged person. And finally, this is the important part, that Cirrus deserved to hear that from Skylar. He did not. I don’t know why I keep seeing comments of this over and over again, no he did not deserve to hear that and yes Skylar was an asshole and I never want them together. Since they got together, Skylar has also physically assaulted him. Like, what the fuck. Does no give a fuck about that?
