No, I completely agree. The art isn’t bad or anything. It’s actually gotten a little better as it went on. But I still think that the previous art really suited the story much more. Ever since the art change, I’ve been having a little bit of a challenge understanding the story. Maybe if I re-read it I’d understand it a little more? I’ve just been thinking about dropping it, but I really want to stick it out because of how good the story was before

I reread.... It did not help

LMAO I THOUGHT THE SAME he couldn’t even say pink shirt or nothin

He's probably going to think Cedric is mad because he made a heart with.. uhh pink haired girly

Totally (￣∇￣")

So you bought her victim crap?
Part of it is true, it must be hard for her, honestly. but it’s not like the boy himself is manipulative, he’s just disabled ?
If you shift that perspective, everything is different ?
Growing up with a disabled person in your family or close friends certainly comes at a price. But i don’t like how it’s pictured either.

As the "disabled" person in my family, i disagree.

Even if he is not intentionally manipulative, and if he's disabled, the fact remains that she was manipulated by being told he's her responsibility.

Moreover, his disability is his to learn to manage and his parents to teach him. If there are things he doesn't know or has difficulty grasping, it needs to be explained again, and again, in a way he can understand until he does, not vrushed aside and covered for.

This should have been done when he was young, before he ever grew up.

The first time he overreacted to an issue with magic, he should have been corrected and had every peice taken apart, laid in front of him, and explained.

But he was let to run wild and grew into this horrible toddler of an adult.

It might not be his fault, but its not her responsibility.

I would never want to cause my friends constant pain and stress and they understand that. Honestly, there are still times i do, but everytime, we stop, they explain to me what i did wrong and how it hurt them, and I make it my goal to not do it again.

I know what it feels like to be limited, to hurt others and not know why, and to have others react angrily and never explain, only to apologize later with still no explanation. I know how it feels to be treated as a child, and i know how it feels and looks to act like a child and take advantage of it.

The difference is i had people thst xorrected me, found ways to teach me that i could understand, and worked hard myself to control myself and grow.

I became a functional adult because i was raised properly, and I, more than any able person, will not overlook someone who abuses their disability to do as they please.


And yeah, I am buying the "victim" deal. Because its not her job or responsibility to care for him just because they were friends as kids, just because she's a good person and cares about other people, just because its convenient.

Its a tragedy on both sides, if we view him as disabled, but neither side is her fault, yet the punishment is.

I can't say i dont sympathize, i know why and how meltdowns are triggered and how they feel, and I hate how hes been trapped in a box because no one's shown him the door.


But its still neither her fault or responsibility.

Thank you for sharing :) i am truly glad that you are in a situation where you can adjust to your surroundings, learn how to cope or what is expected of you. This is wonderful and i wish you enjoy the best in every possible way.

Let’s get something out of the table : i am rather horrified to see how a disabled character is so often blamed and hated for something he can’t help.
Maybe the adults are to blame, but never the disabled person !
Also, outside of harassment, one can never be responsible for how an adult with her full capability feels - this is the basic of personal development : you are responsible for how you feel , which in turn gives you full power to change !

It’s the responsibility of the writer to pull heartstrings with a sadly famous yet totally toxic Karpman triangle. It’s already bad in any circumstances, but it’s particularly evil in this title.

As for that male character : i would not say he learned nothing : he obviously dresses up, he’s clean, he works and mostly behave. But have you wondered if he can actually learn more than he already does ?
Among the people I know, there are many things, that they are simply unable manage, not becnon one taught them, but because it’s beyond their abilities. Would it be physical limitation, intellectual deficiencies, emotional lack , or overeaction to some situations : they just can help it !
Somethings are broken beyond repair or even patching up. Even if you repeat, teach, or even go to crazy lengths to find ways to reach them, even with the best intentions in the world, asking them further would simply be violence.

It’s beautiful to know that you are able to do more than them. But, you probably know better than me : because you can adjust up to some point, does certainly not mean everything became fully functional and you have no trouble with them at all ?

Some people can very well be or become « handicapable », but others will stay handicapped. And in some cases, there is no way to ever fit in society.
But we can share the pain : society can learn how to better accommodate them and their needs. Mostly we can cooperate, so that the family who carry such an incredible charge can still function.

In cases of handicap, the number of divorce is astounding.
Amount the severe cases i know, in the vast majority a single parent is working crazy hours to support their sick child, leaving them with little time or energy to cope with the reality of their situation.
From my experience, the healthy kids are a big support. It’s also not like anyone asked them, and they most often never complain, even when it seems unbearably heavy for the outsider I am.

I don’t like the « Victim « posture, if you care to read about Karpman triangle and its antidotes, you might see why.
There are objective victims : if you have an accident, if someone assaults or harass you, you are a victim. And of course, when you’re a child there’s also little you can do.
But even then, when you can research, that if you want to get out of something like a bullying situation, the kid will learn out to get out of the victim posture.
Owning your feelings, expressing yourself, learning to put limits, learning to voice your emotions and needs, all of that can bring positive outcomes. Also this is something where children are taught tools to find a solution within themselves, because an adult « Savior «  will never truly help.
Of course, this is only true when adults guarantee safety. But arbitration might be better placed among the protagonists themselves.

This is why I won’t buy a grown up, with a steady situation, a strong social position is a «victim «  of her current situation.
She obviously can say no. But she insists on making all situations ambiguous and complicated : she verbally denies, yet does the opposite
How about she just set a number or rule, and stick with them ? How about she clarifies her emotions, her needs, her demands ?
She would give headaches to a well adjusted person, and now we should expect an emotionally handicapped person to make the effort to understand ?
Empathy never meant telepathy, but if you’re lacking the first one, there’s no way to make sense of her behavior at all.

I read you : it seems you had to learn and exercice quite a bit of effort to interact with people in a way that preserves them too.
But i would hope, there reciprocity and your people also know, you don’t have the same limitations. They care to take the time and explain, they hopefully don’t go pushing your buttons, and i would also hope they make half of the way when it’s too much for you ?
It’s not like you’re the only one responsible in a relationship.
Of course you can’t expect ever strangers to make the same effort, but there are a number of good people who will do so, even when they barely know you. How could the entire responsibility of a relationship be entirely pushed on the disabled one ?
The same way you don’t expect your friends in a wheelchair to open the door for you, you can also adjust to the specific needs of other types of impairement : that is something we ought to teach to regular people !

Now about the MC, i don’t deny there were some unfair bits in her initial situation. Should adults be blamed, i don’t know, i didn’t read enough. As i told you some kids take charge even when it’s way bigger than them.
But i want to mention again : she’s a grown up. And she’s also somehow kind of hypocritical about her emotions : she has known that person from a young age, his limitations, his obvious emotional impairment, his lack of empathy is nothing new.
She’s obviously was, and maybe still is in love with him.… But she can’t accept the way he loves her ? She unilaterally decided that whatever he felt was not « love » as she wants it
How about it’s simply the best he can give ? He’s obviously sincere, devoted and kind… and still lacking every bits that are not working well in his brain.
But no one has the ability to decide or judge the feelings of others. This too is extremely unfair.
Emotions, we can observe, but feelings are so mysterious, we often mistake even our own ?
So definitely i will stick with my « crap » qualification. But it’s on the author mostly.
I understand, as a person, one might feel stuck between conflicting emotions. (This send you back to owning your feelings , recognizing your real needs, in order to change for the best, not in the very bizarre and convoluted way the MC did)

I wish the writer had realized they were writing a disabled character. I am seriously afraid they made choices with a humorous perspective, not realizing that what they described is the terrifying reality of many.

Living with « normal » people and seeing them expect « normal behaviors » out of people who can’t respond, can’t understand, can’t feel, it seems to me , i can’t help but think we are the one needing education.
How to accept, respect and support people with different abilities and limitations is something WE should learn. It’s on its way though :)

Peace and thanks again :)

You make good points, however I think it my point would have made sense to you better if you read more.

An adult mage (unrevealed as is) told her its her responsibility to care for this guy or he'd essentially blow up the world and everyone she cared for.

Thats why she doesnt say no.

But you are definitely right, shes not laying boundaries or enforcing them the way she should.

Oh, that’s truly something that could be seen as emotional blackmail, but i suppose, in a world of magic, it could also be seen differently ?

We all live own within some boundaries, and some of us do have to carry big responsibilities, some of which feel really way to big for kids :/

As of now i didn’t want to read more. It feels like the author is playing with some concept with the ML, but as I perceive it, it is not something i can accept.
Do you think the author realized they are depicting someone with serious disability ?

I dont think the author nows what they're depicting on any level.

Frrrr

"Eden, please stop the discrimination against everyone but Hajun."
- said the members and Daydreams

Canon. Litterally. And iirc, eden didnt even pretend to say " i dont discriminate"

Lmao yeahh, that's what I remember too! I mean Eden even said that Hajun is the first person he ever approached to befriend, and that usually it's other people that come and ask Eden to be friend first.

Oh of course ! Nobody in your past life could understand your deep passion for acting like us is that right?

Nah bro screwed either way

Good point lol

I imagined it as more fluffy sort of like a husky
