I get the ppl saying Judith did nothing wrong but ngl I kinda disagree. Like smth can be understandable but not justifiable, meaning we can empathize with Judith and what led to her actions, but calling it justifiable or valid is a little much? Especially to Luca, the child who was abused and neglected. Just saying you can understand and analyze why someone did smth without glossing over the damage they inflicted on others. ( ̄∇ ̄")
I couldn't agree more. The fact that she bawled her eyes out honestly says it all. Even she knows it was no excuse. Had it been excusable, she would have woken up feeling righteous, not an immense guilt that weighed her down so much she could do nothing but ball her eyes out.
I'm a mom myself and no matter what, I would never test my kid like that! I'm poor an pretty severely physically disabled and fled with my kid and the clothes on my back, from his biological sperm donor. So I may not have dealt with deaths as close as hers (although since, friends and my grandparents followed by my mom from cancer, passed away in that time. I still could NEVER treat my beloved baby (who's 14 now btw) anywhere near how she treated him. I know that I'm mom and biologically she's just aunt, but my baby's step dad isn't, and he not only stayed in my life (we were bffs before I left me ex and started dating s month later because we meet first and had secretly liked eachother for years but that point) but stepped up and became dad right away. My kids has been calling him dad the entire time, he started doing so without our pushing. We never looked back.
i mean she admit that what she did was wrong. but again baby blues is a thing moreso Judith was not even her mother and with all that happening in her life, at very least she did raise Luca and didn't neglect him at all, she just can't provide the love Luca's need and given her situation it's kinda expected.
Also, i think people simplify human nature a bit too much nowadays, where everything only seen as black and white, while human and everything happens in this life is not just black and white, human made mistake doesn't mean you must either agree with their motives or take no excuse at all. It's kinda annoying whenever i see something just being labeled as Green or red flag.
I've been trying to find this one bl manhwa/manhua for a while. My memory is rlly hazy tho
- historical
-.yin and yang setting??? (For some reason yins arent allowed to be king. Dk if it does anything tho, like being able to get pregnant)
- the king married after ukes moms death. Uke gets along with her and her son(ml). the prince uke was supposed to be king, but manifested as a yin. But the ml manifested as extra Yang or smth and became king instead
- the uke becomes a peasant and later meets ml in a parade. He gets invited to a banquet. After, ml tries to sleep with uke, uke rejects. Dk if ml forces him.
- uke runs away in the morning but ml hunts him down with arrows and breaks ukes ankle??? I think
Anyway, if you can somehow find what I'm talking abt with this pathetic summary, that's amazing. Thanks in advance tho. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Maybe https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/a_trace_of_margins/ ? Sorry if it isn't, I didn't actually read it, just read the summary and it was the closest I could find to your description
This manga has been stuck in my head for a couple days, but I don't remember enough to search and find it.
So it's a bl Japanese manga.
Mc is a guy who can see people's emotions as colors. And then he meets ml who does a martial art(forgot the name of it, but I think it's fencing??).
Then, when they're kissing, ml has a deep red color around him that Mc thinks is suffocating, so Mc asks to stop. Later, ml is confused on why mcs avoiding him.
And this is completed btw. Thanks in advancee. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
This better not be a oneshot, it's too cute. ヽ(`Д´)ノ
Sadly it probably is based on how fast paced the story was (/TДT)/
