BRO, actually started tearing up. There’s so much so unpack here with this chapter.
Woo-Yeon was planning to take him to America. “I would’ve told him we were going to america next week” BRO. HE WAS PLANNING TO TAKE HIM. THE REASON HE’S BEEN SAYING NO EVEN AFTER THE WHOLE HOTEL THING WAS BCUZ HE HAD A TRIP PLANNED
The way Woo-Yeon was explaining his emotions throughout his inner monologue and his actions before they tranq’d him was so heart wrenching. It all felt so real, especially since he can’t typically pinpoint what exactly he’s feeling so he has to analyze so deeply.
I also want to point out the fact that Woo-Yeon wanted to tell In Seob that he loved him, and when presented the chance, (even tho he prob would’ve thought he couldn’t hear him) he still didn’t say it. He decided stepping out of his life was the best course of action. Do you realize how much strength, esp with this specific situation and these specific characters, that takes to do?
This entire circumstance is just very tragic and I love it (even if it makes me cry.)

This story is literally a DIAMOND IN THE ROOOUUGHH. Oh my DAYS. I love this so much, they’re so healthy and like it’s so healing to read. Lowkey makes me tear up with how supportive, reassuring and just overall how good Jihwan is to Doha especially knowing what happened to him.
Their conversations with serious topics is so chef’s kiss. Like when Doha asked if he could meet Jihwan’s family, and while being adamant and very clear with him not wanting to do that, he still heard Doha out and didn’t completely invalidate or disregard what Doha was saying.
It’s so sad and honestly quite frustrating how normalized toxic relationships are in bl, that when it comes to finding stories like this we’re pretty much having PTSD and are traumatized expecting smth bad to happen I hope and pray this gets off haitus soon, this story is too good.

Highkey thinking of dropping. I hate when the top gets mad and rapes the bottom out of anger and then we just skip past it, like ew no.
Also was struggling to get past the infantilization/age play bullshit. Tf you mean he’s “grounded,” that’s a grown ass man. Him and his brother are both weirdo baby kink havin ass bitches. Couldn’t even finish the 6 chapter story for the brother cuz that shit was just WEIRD.
He’s literally only just found out he likes men, he’s in Korea, and he’s 40. Yes, I can agree that he is old enough to realize sending a text isn’t a sin. But this is such a relatable and raw feeling. He literally has to come to terms with himself all over again bcuz now his life is making drastic changes that he probably didn’t even consider could/would happen.
