You can't escape seeing r*pe in yaoi but straight up blackmail too? I mean ik sometimes they have the threat of blackmail in other yaoi, but Ik this author would have the top follow through. Not to mention they already sent the image to the friend. This is truly a 'the crowd goes silent' moment. Also, why do they always write the bottom as an asshole, douchey type character and use that to justify them being r*ped? We're only 5 chapters in but I know their other stories so ik the authors pattern...
When it's psychological horror that's one thing, but this author writes smut like this for the sake of it. But I literally can never read it without feeling like I'm reading psychological horror. On one hand I believe in 'don't like don't read' but man I really wonder who tf enjoys this, or if the author really thinks they're cooking.
I think I just personally don't like the author cause of the massive disappointment they gave the s&m community. People were so excited for s&m themed webtoons but it turned out to be the most dangerous, stereotypical type stories. Basically felt like what people who don't do s&m fantasize it being. Or the type of people who get into s&m thinking they can do whatever they want
Seeing all these people mad about the chapter mainly being about chan-il and rin finally talking out the misunderstanding cirrus caused feels like watching solo stans who despise other members
It's actually insane how many people wish death on them I wish lost in the cloud NEVER reached TikTok it brought in a lot of crazies who only read for cirrus, think he's a saint and don't give a shit about the plot.
Cirrus is a GREAT and interesting character but something he's not... is a baby you need to coddle. He's old enough to know to own his mistakes but none of you want him to grow. Atp I'm begging you people to drop this series cause the comments are flooded with overprotective obsessed weirdos and I can't find any normal comments actually about the story .
Pls direct me to any comments that aren't "when is she gonna apologise for slapping him >:(" "skylar doesn't deserve him" or "can they kts already why are they on the screen" I wanna talk with people who actually like this story not just cirrus. Or with people who like cirrus but don't want him to be handled with kid gloves 24/7
This !!!! Omg the same way people blame skylar too like sorry that he feel invalidated with how cirrus start the relationship??? Of course cirrus deserve to be happy but he need to grow on , you cant force people to accept your mistakes forever by the time you need to realize what you did is wrong that hiding it isnt going to erase anything. Same with skylar he was harsh at times he hurted cirrus they both need to grow and people who hate on chan-il and ri-in for their relationship like i know we read mainly for skyrus but this two person are important to the story too thats why litc feel alive because its happened in real life with teenagers relationship and misunderstanding.
Right!! I mean would none of these commenters break up with their partner if they found out they started the relationship to ridicule them?
And yeah I want cirrus to be happy and overcome his traumas, but he needs to grow for that to happen. If him being happy depends on people forgiving regardless of what he does wrong, then no one wins.
And I remember when bl used to have a whole cast of characters, and conflict that couldn't be solved in just one or two chapters. Nowadays bl can have 100 chapters and it'll still only have the main couple and maybe a few minor characters. People newer readers are too used to being spoon-fed romance and only want main couple, nothing else. This author is creating a real story and a whole universe.
No one in this comments section wants character growth for cirrus, they want to coddle him and for him to have no repercussions for his actions ever and for everyone to be nice to him no matter what he does.
I love how rin is being understanding and Skylar looked back realised cirrus DID actually care for him. But their initial reactions were valid. Rins BEST FRIEND made her look like a cheater on purpose and Skylar found out the beginning of his relationship was a lie. But they both are giving cirrus the benefit of the doubt because rin understands him and Skylar knows he grew a little since then.
It's CIRRUS that should apologise but because of his traumas he withdrew from everyone thinking they abandoned him. Skylar and rin need to keep reaching out so he knows they care but cirrus also shuts out anyone in the blink of an eye. He punched skylar after they broke up, and people acted like it was skylars fault. If they reconnect, they're gonna have to meet halfway.
All these commenters remind me of when I get mad at my brother, and he gets mad at me for being mad at him. It makes no sense and is so unreasonable
We all do but people act like because of his traumatic past that everything he does now is ok and everyone needs to be super considerate and forgive him immediately no matter what. Thats not that works. Theres something called accountability.
Of course someone with unresolved trauma could struggle to make rational decisions when under stress like cirrus, but that doesnt mean everyone has to let it slide when he does bad shit. Trauma isn't a get-out-of-jail free card. Even his friends and boyfriend arent obligated , understanding him . That's not how that works.
Rin and Skylar still understand him enough to forgive him. This is the best cirrus could ask for tbh. He did horrible shit, people reacted and they spent time to think about it and forgave him. People are acting like because they both got over it and want to reconnect with him that it means cirrus did nothing wrong in the first place.. that's crazy
If you think me saying we shouldn't coddle someone when they do bad stuff just because they had a traumatic is "belitting" then idk what to tell you. By the way, I not once said "bc he had daddy issues"... that was you who brought it up in your first response to me because you lack reading comprehension.
But lemme say it one more time, you can have compassion / understanding for someone AND criticize them when they do something wrong. I think that's a hard concept for u to grasp though
I hate manhwa where there's no logic in the universe. Author has the mc treating getting raped like a minor inconvenience. I hate when they play rpe for laughs in yaoi like bro call the police instead of treating him like he's only being annoying. It would make sense if he's scared or feels threatened but here it's not even either of those things
Duh, he was so drunk that he was sleeping on the streets, of course he didn't give consent. Plus the entire time he kept saying "no" and "stop" and various other things, even in his drunk state he never wanted this. Not that it would have mattered since he was drunk and an Inebriated person can't consent.
He told him to stop multiple times so everything that happens there on out is rape. Also about him asking to use his hands, he asked so at the very least he could make it hurt less by prepping himself , to that the ml refused. so on top of being a rapist he did it dry with no prep just to be sadistic
Dubious consent is never when the character says no, that means there's no consent. Dubious consent is more like the character looks uncertain or like they don't want to but doesn't stop it or say no. Which is not the situation at all. And like the other comments said, when someone is drunk its automatically is rape since drunk people can't consent. But like I said he told him to stop and no like 10 times either way
I'm surprised you even asked if it counts as rape , if someone says stop or no then it's rape. If the person tries to protect themselves by trying using their hands to not get hurt, theyre comproming. It still makes it rape. It's like if someones asked a rapist to at least use a condom. Doesn't mean they're ok with it happening, they just accepted they can't get out of the situation and want the least possible suffering to come out of it
From that last chapter I thought a chasing arc was gonna start but hunter is thinking shit like "ooh i can't slowly manipulate him into trusting me... I have to be more aggressive!" and idk if he means he's gonna or if he means more like going on the offense... romantically, or if he means forcing yujin into being with him. Idk they're on two different wavelengths rn I don't think either of them forreal like each other yet besides attraction oof this hurts
