You call this consent?
This poor guy has been losing years of his life from their bickering, got dragged into a hotel and pressure to play with them while looking extremely uncomfortable with the whole thing yet neither the bottom nor the ex realize or care bc theyre too focused on their petty fight, ofc everyone is upset w this

The situation is a bit uncomfortable but they met up with him of their own volition and walked into the room with them, ml stripped of his own will. Maybe due to stubbornness, sure? But this is still consensual. You're allowed to find it uncomfortable though. I don't think the author necessarily wants to reader to be happy about the ex's behavior, and wants the mc to be "in the right". Which is why the scene plays out the way it does.

Yes, it’s very consensual. They’re all grown consenting adults in this scenario. No one forced anyone. They can all say no if they wanted to. There has been no coercion or anything. This is a very straightforward strictly consensual scenario.
Ml can also easily rescind his consent and there’s no doubt the ex would respect it. Which is probably wats ganna happen with him not allowing the ex a chance to join in.

Exactly lol People are so used to monogamous life that they flip out of another person is involved in any way as if it harms the main relationship. The ex is so annoying but this will probably push the main couple together even more. But you're totally right about switch energy and I wouldn't have hated them both getting topped haha
Comments are giving angry monogamous virgins honestly. Not everyone is uncomfortable with ex play partners or fuck buddies still having scenes now and then. The characters are definitely giving nervous but they both consented to it and the bottom is definitely aroused by even being watched. What I'm seeing looks like a pretty normal play scene with an ex involved lol
