Something I always think about in historical manhwa when the MC and the ML are both from ducal houses is how the power structure doesn’t crumble.. especially when they don’t have any siblings. Do they end up merging? Do they (somehow) each manage their own houses, then try for two kids and have them continue both houses? Then there couldn’t be another marriage between the two houses, at least for a while.
It’s different when it’s imperial family x ducal house since it’s not uncommon that a duke has some imperial lineage. It feels different when there’s multiple dukes who are world-built to keep each other in check, feels unstable

You're raising a great point. It depends on what the houses want and the power dynamic between them. Traditionally, the woman would marry into the man's house and then her brother/cousin would take over, but if her house is just as strong or maybe stronger than the man's, then either the man marries into her house, the houses merge or they each rule their own houses, but then they do have to have two children to give them each one house. If the woman's family is gonna be ruled by her uncle/cousin/male distant relative, then that one becomes the main lineage and then her and her husband's kids rule the husband's house only.
"there couldn't be another marriage between them". I think one generation would be enough for them to then have cousins get married to each other. The siblings would rule now, then each have kids and their kids could get married with no issues. If the author wants to be historically accurate, cousin incest is fine.

Romance of any genre where one person is like “chasing” the other, but the chaser stops chasing which causes the one being chased to then realize they like them and then they realize it was a misunderstanding and date happily ever after

this is like that https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/senpai_ima_kara_kokurimasu/

So y’all know that omegaverse trope where the alpha/omega pretends to be a beta? Is there any manga/hwa where it’s opposite, where the beta pretends to be an alpha/omega? I think it would be really funny

Does anyone have some BL where mc and ml are oblivious to the fact that they already act like they’re dating? Like they call themselves best friends but everyone already knows they love each other lol

- maybe this too https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/nagahama_to_be_or_not_to_be/
Can anyone rec a romance of whatever subgenre where MC just genuinely doesn’t take any shit from anyone? Not in a like wannabe badass way just where they aren’t playing mind games or being coy lol
