GOD I HAVE NO ONE TO TALK TO ABOUT THIS

But wait hear me out-
Even if they did have a happy ending where MC chooses to live and they get together, there are too many factors that prevent them from having a “normal” relationship. Like didn’t he say he can’t age?? Or at least he has special cells that prevent him from dying normally, like wouldn’t that be worse in the long run since he knows ML will most likely die before him? Also we can’t ignore that there’s technically a mental 50 year age gap between them, like MC even said when he came back to this timeline that seeing ML was just like reminiscing on an old childhood crush. My point is I feel like the mental age gap will prove to be problematic later on in their relationship.
So yeah I hope MC chooses to die… not because I don’t think he should be happy with the guy he likes/(liked?) but because of the whole “if u love them, u will let them go” trope. I feel like MC has already lived his life regardless if it was full of trauma from saving the world and he lost everyone who was important to him during those 50 years. Meanwhile, ML is actually 19 and has his whole life ahead of him. It would be nice if the story proceeds with MC getting into a relationship with ML for the time being, and live out the high school romance that he never got to have before he time traveled. I hope the story is about them making good memories together until his 100 days are up. And that the ending is something like MC being appreciative of the time they had together but knowing deep down that this is as far as they can go. I dunno maybe I just love tragedy BL too much.
Anyway! the novel is already completed so don’t take this take too seriously lol
