Girl it's been over a decade in their timeline ya think too hard but also I'm pretty sure this was the appeal of the book
For the kid yeah, but that only makes him at most 20, but honestly probably not that old. I mean if you wanted to pair a Twink and a possessive phsycho, do that! Why must that Twink have once been his extremely old father figure ╥﹏╥
Like I can imagine the same plot with childhood friends where one dies too soon and this happens, or at the very least not make their ages so different. I've read so many age difference mangas like this, but my god, this is probably the furthest I've ever seen lmao
Oh girl this means you're new there's a whole appeal and fanbase specifically with these kind of themes, I suggest we don't think too hard and just enjoy the yaoi as it is
Frr
I've read so many, this one is just so much more of an age difference than usual. It's usually more a parental age to give in story justification of their ages not being super far apart. Like I literally cannot understand how this like 6 year old fell in love with an old man who raised him. If the old man wasn't so fucking old I could maybe suspend my disbelief (or if he was more conventionally attractive or if the kid was older, more on the puberty side of things)
My dear I think you're thinking too hard if it's not for you just drop it, no harm will come if you ever drop it might as well try finding something else it's next time just look at the cover and title alone and make your deduction from there
Ugh I wish the master hadn't been so old and the pupil so young cuz it gives me too icky a feeling
Like the premise I love, the age difference is pushing me over the edge though
