this is gonna be very negative so skip this comment if that's gonna bother you
referencing chapter 37
"i have to stop acting like a child so i'm going alone to meet someone who's tried to hurt me at least two confirmed times before instead of letting anyone who could keep me safe know about it" god i hate this fucking logic so much it's actually giving me a migraine
i was fine with the story up until that point, it wasn't perfect or anything but it was Fine, but that's just the most stupid thing a grown adult could have done in that situation
the whole thing with the cousin getting casually brushed off is infuriating but this ticked me off more bc i can ignore the side characters but i can't ignore the main one
and seeing that there's only a few chapters left and their relationship has not progressed at all it's like? author you could and Should have used this time to develop the MAIN COUPLE instead of making one act like he got a lobotomy in between chapters
