this is fictional! hope this helps!

It's difficult to remember that sometimes, as for some people some of the things that happen in this manhwa just hit too close to home

Yeah it's fictional but there's a lot of young impressionable minds reading this. If people just easily accept it as ok to forgive abusers easily and to just accept them, young minds will grow thinking this type of behavior is fine (●'◡'●)ﾉ

Personally, I don't really think he should be forgiven easily but I do believe he should be given a chance of redemption. And that chance ofc shouldn't be handed out easily (cough fuck derrick ahem!) Like yeah he did abuse penelope and constantly blame her but its also obvious he is trying to redeem himself and be a better brother. The same goes for the Duke. He was very neglectful towards penelope but he's trying and at least there's that bc some of these fathers in other stories dont even do that much.

And to the other person (if they read this) just because its fictional doesnt mean situations like this don't happen in real life. Yes its a story with characters that wouldn't be real in rl or is 100% coincidental but the circumstances exist. Saying the story is fictional doesnt validate that what is happening in the story is okay and should be fine to just forgive someone bc they're different now or "changed"

It's true that many characters like Reynold and the Dad are trying to apologize for the abuse, but still they deserve more than just a slap on the wrist. Like so far all I remember Reynolds really do is the minimum to apologize and stop bullying her. Also he gave her bunnies, like what...years of abuse and all you have to do is give her bunnies..nah bro. Also yeah Derrick absolutely has done nothing to be forgiven for. It's even worse knowing that SPOILER ALERT he has been low-key crushing on MC since she was a kid and he was older then her (insert siren sounds) ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ

Yeah I agree reynold and daddy are gonna have to risk their life AT LEAST to make up for the abuse they've put penelope through during her entire life. I'm just glad there's change actually happening with them and its not something immediate but a gradual change over time.

Honestly I prefer this slow burn forgiveness arc as well. I don't really like it when they make the MC have a naive heart and forgive their abusers just because they said sorry. Also Reynolds and the Dad definitely better jump in front of Penelope to avoid getting her killed in order for me to actually start accepting their apology as well ┑(￣Д ￣)┍

Personally, I'VE forgiven Reynold, but that doesn't mean I want Penelope to forgive him yet yk? I can like Reynold as a character and also like the fact that Penelope is reacting to him the way she should be, A.K.A. with severe distrust. Reader opinion on a character can differ from reader opinion on character opinion of character.

theres still human qualities and characteristics thatre being mirrored from in-person relationships! hope this helps!

sorry but young impressionable minds should not even be on this website considering what the home page looks like. this website is an adult space

look i didnt mean to come off that agresive tbh im very biased having read the novel ive already gone through these scenes and i forget that not everybody has read it

Let's be honest young ppl definitely should not be reading on this website and should use a more appropriate one but truth is they will be using this one bc it's one of the most convenient manga website. Also even then I think the age rating is still aimed for young adults so one way or another they were the audience ╮(￣▽￣)╭

regardless of the fact its fiction and how far along we are, my point is to not forget how little effort theyve truly put in to be so friendly towards penelope as they are now. the way they treated her came from intentions and characteristics that are very prevalent in the real world unfortunately, and SOME people fail to distinguish between the two (adult or not)

DERRICK HAVE WHAT ON PENELOPE?????????!!!!!!!!(╯°Д °)╯╧╧

I was just as mad bro like c'mon bro you're way too old to justify pulling your crush's hair for attention. *Insert police siren noises*

yeah derrick is the only unforgivable one imo he's awful

alright i need yall to stop now cus it feels like we've done a complete 180 and gone in a circle to my initial point of not picking and choosing when to forgive abusers

Oof we all got too passionate and out of hand

no i mean it feels like everyones trying to shift all the blame onto derrick when my original post was abt reynold. yk like how everyone would rather choose the lesser evil when in reality all of them should be held accountable

oh hun, i ain't liking reynold yet nor forgiving him about the bullying and the abuse but derrick goes way beyond back!

NOW THIS I CAN AGREE WITH

I mean, it depends on what u want.

I don't want romance but I wasn't politics so for me yes.

If u just want romance then no

okay tyy

I might be wrong I think it's because Yvonne mind controlled Eclis and he attacked her or something. She realized she couldn't rely on him anymore to escape the game so she abandoned him. I might be wrong tho, it's been awhile.

She never did really like him, she was just using him because he was an easy choice. So the neutral feeling turned into hate when ecklis brought Yvonne and all the events after. Or atleast i think so , I don't remember him attacking her previously

Because of him, all her hard work to increase the heart points depleted so she needs to put in more effort just to raise it. All her plans to leave before Yvonne came went down the drain because he wanted to isolate her and keep her for himself. In the beginning, she said "betrayal means death" and he betrayed her, hence her coldness to him now. This is also to keep Eckles away from her, she doesn't have use for him anymore and since he's "just a game character" it doesn't matter to her.

ahhh that makes a lot more sense if she explicitly said that to him before. tysm!

Brah doesn’t know when to quit. He is literally my ick

I did not quite get it too

So Penelope ordered the now dead maid to poison the glass but so did Yvonne I'm guessing but for her to drink not penelope. So Penelope would get set up for trying to "kill" her and the maid would be the witness because Penelope did ask her to poison the glass. But Penelope still had the poison meaning she didn't give it at all or gave very little (I can't remember at this point) but I want to say she didn't, but she suspected that Yvonne did that's why she grabbed the cup.

But idk I have to reread, anybody correct me if I'm wrong.

Actually, Pen would die eventually as she would still drink the poison BUT NOT in front of everyone. As far as i remember, the Duke’s words before the birthday celebration touched her heart and she decided to change the time she die by the end of the party, when everyone finally had their fun and she’ll die in silence.
She lied and said that to Winter bc she doesn’t want him to get too close to her and drift far away from his “role” : Yvonne’s “protector”. Pen knows Yvonne did it but doesn’t want Winter to get involve and ended up like that knight of hers (i forgot his name) just bc she couldn’t return his feelings and start using him instead, so i think she misleading him in order to protect him

ohhhh tyty

ty!

Someone commented later and said it's bad translation, and originally Pen told him to think about how Yvonne wasn't mourning the death of her personal maid,and that's suspicious

ohhh okay

nope. end of s4 and not even close.
we just keep getting misunderstanding plotlines and maxi want danger but riftan want wife stay home over and over again

alright see you guys at season 10 (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
