Thought the same thing. It's clear we have more much to see since JK's past has shaped him into a full asshole who doesn't care about anyone. It would be extremely out of character if all of the sudden he acted like a softie if he doesn't even recognize he's feeling something.
maybe that's why i like this, tbh. the author actually respects the character being a complete asshole.
Damn you showed me a whole new perspective, I was so mad that there wasn't any character development, and thinking of dropping this, but i guess I'll stick with this a bit more
you have a good point!
I might be completely wrong too. It’s hard to know any authors intentions with anything they make but as long as we keep getting content, we just have to keep an open/realistic mind while they’re releasing this because every story has an ending. It might not be cute and fluff (or could be ), but that’s why we read to discover.
But I like the idea that these people don’t grow (extremely) because it’s a little bit more realistic with how twisted their relationship was. It doesn’t make sense that they would just automatically redeem themselves or try to make right.
They’re just doing the best as they can while still being selfish due to the circumstances of their prior relationship, and now this weird limbo that they’re in trying to understand each others intentions more. Dan knew that he was being used for his body and for JK it’s hard to resist Dan may that be because he needs him for his career or he actually does care about him/ his body.
I don’t know. It just seems to me like they’re both just meant to be scumbags but clearly Dan is a little bit more likable because he has realistic/open feelings(morals) and he actually did like JK.
But he’s trying to repay this debt using the only thing he knows how to use, that being said not knowing exactly what JK wants from him, but knowing that he cannot resist him.
