I'm somewhat confused but this is so good. Any soul who can, please explain how the penalty works? My brain is unable to decipher what it meant.
Also is it just me? I thought I messed up chapters when I was reading. Around chapter 9-13. The flashbacks and changing pov had me thinking for a while. The sudden jump messed my brain a bit.......
But.... The hair on that red dude is amazing..... Hair on kahim is delish.... I'm so in love

I guess it kind varies on the guide verse but it could just be boiled down to physical strain. Using your powers, particularly powerful powers, fcuks with the nervous system of the espers body. If im getting real sciencey with my fictional smut, theres the cerebrum of the brain at the top of the spine that controls heart rate, blood flow.. day to day regulation that keep you literally alive. I theorize over use/massive use of your physic powers fuck with this part of the brain and disrupts bodily regulation... Nervous system signals to the heart and brain..
The guide kinda guides the overly excited or rampant energy in the espers body so it stops reeking havoc on bodily regulation. Just my guesses on the guideverse tho

I skip sex usually. Or just scroll pass thru it. But something was different in this chapter. The sex was so intense? I love seeing Brett as a crying mess. Don't get me wrong I love when Hayden is a watery mess too, but something about Brett having these expressions.... Chef's kiss.
Oh and since I scrolled down to comment, I found people not liking this chapter cus Brett isn't in control or Hayden fingered him after he came inside, just to shove his dick in later (that was fire ngl. Absolute banger) and..... My friends, did you forget that in the starting of this series, Brett confessed he liked being controlled and roughened up? With consent Ofc but yall do realize that Brett has strong masochistic tendencies, right?
Anyways, it's so fun to see becuase this chapter was so animate and I could almost hear the sounds. Brett biting the pillow and the head turn. So goooood

I'm so nosy I scrolled all the way to check what this hair argument was....
Why am I not surprised?
Yall do realize that hairstyle which is typically associated with one specific race doesn't necessarily mean that said race owns that hairstyle, right? Just because a group of people frequently wears one style, doesn't mean another group can't wear it. That is not culture appropriation as far as my intelligence goes.
For example, braids. I don't know the English word for them so I used braids, but I'm talking the one where they make many braids along the scalp and down the hair length. In mostly Western areas (yes I'm talking America) those braids are usually associated with black people, but my grandma, who's well over 80, made them for us when we were kids because her mother and grandmother used to make them. Similarly, dreads (I hope those are the spellings) are seen in my country a lot. I'm Asian. I live in Asia. I have Asian blood. Internet isn't this advance here. But people have worn dreads, those braids, and even more hairstyles and clothes for ages. Way before yall learned to yap.
The whole reason I wrote this much is to say "IT'S A HAIRSTYLE WORN WORLDWIDE, AND FOR CENTURIES" just as how "CLOTHES ARE CLOTHES" and that as an Asian with a distinct culture, and I say this on the behalf of literally everyone ik, I love it when people wear our clothes properly. Heck I would even braid their hair on that style if they let me. Literally, no one will mind unless you're being overly disrespectful in some way.
My point still stands that just because one group of people frequently wears one style, doesn't mean that another group of people does not. Just because one thing is highlighted by one group, does not mean another group can't do that.
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk. If you want to start an argument, be creative.

I was slightly scared by the comments. This was a refreshing read, even the one part w author. Is it bad I want his story? I liked the uke better w long hair tho.....
Also wadafak was that misunderstanding?????

Fr, it was at least all consensual! That's a low bar, but these days with BL and kink comics it's a hard one to reach lol I sort of liked the author and respect him trying a scene to get his own research?? Plus he is a successful author who was turned into a plagiarist unbeknownst to him after all. Are we crazy idk. I miss the long hair too!
Everytime I read an update, I feel like I'm rushing through something. Every chapter seems rushed and it seems to skip a essential details too. I haven't read the novel but I think manhwa may have skipped a great deal of scenes. Like one scene is quite tense and a few panels later, the tension is gone and there's an entirely different plot unraveling??? Similarly, if two consecutive chapters are in a serious mood, suddenly somewhere in the mid of second chapter, the atmosphere would ease up or the emotions/ conversations seem entirely different and eased? I may be the only one who felt this but God that takes the taste away from it....
A lot of nuance is lost from the original novel unfortunately
