bitch when? when did we ever asked your opinion? like freaking hell shut your trap if you don't have anything good to say. im so mad ggrrr

THIS IS NOT MINE, BUT [[[[[doxies]]]]]

I've posted before about this without spoiling, and it physically HURTs me that people are
giving out wrong spoilers based off some google translate thing they didn't even bother to
cross reference. A lot of spoilers are out of context of the whole story and omits SO MUCH
so i'm going to explain it as best as I can, referring to my previous post. These spoilers
are coming from the novel version btw, and whether or not JAXX choses to adapt them
will be another issue altogether. But anyway, here goes.
There are several major factors and characters I shall address.
1. Ryan (Blonde dude from earlier in the series)
He has a much bigger role in the books than in t he webtoon thus far, but idk how big his
role might be ahead because he has a major role to play in the latter half of the series. As
far as I know, he is NOT a love rival or anything of that sort. There has never been and
isn't going to be anything romantic between him and McQueen at all. He harbours certain
hatred McQueen for reasons, blames him for a lot of his ongoing issues and he has a lot .
He has a son, with a prostitute and he also seems to have drug issues and is generally
pretty messed up. In the novels, he and Ed live together, and McQueen and Ed have
meals with Ryan and his son Cecil, even helping to take care of his son because Ryan isn't
really the best parent.
He is actually the main reason why Ed and McQueen break up. But more on that in a bit.
2. Ed and McQueen
In the books McQue en is seen doing a lot more porn that in the webtoon to begin with;
here he seems like he does more of the background work like directing etc. But in any
case, novel McQueen and Ed BOTH continue to film porn with other partners, although Ed
only ever bottoms for McQueen after. In the novels, there's no confession at the train
station. They get together, but there's no actual verbalisation of the "I love you"s till
much later. So although they're making porn with other people, they're also not
exclusively together in the books at this point. I believe McQueen initially hoped to kind of
do couples porn with Ed, but at some point after they do both stop doing porn anyway.
But in any case, obviously the webtoon should differ from that.
Third parties are never a major major issue in the books for our main pair. They do love
each other, although it takes a much longer time for McQueen to verbalise it there. Yes
there is a 'love triangle' of sorts with Chang, but the feelings of the main pair never
wavers for each other, although circumstances in the later parts do drive a wedge
between them. The McEd pairing is actually quite fluffy in the books as well.
A major plot point in the novels. revolves around McQueen's writing of the movie's script.
A journalist basically finds out that McQueen is the director of that movie, and it makes
the news. Its huge news, and it goes on broadcast that a pornstar directed a religious
movie. The website is being overloaded by views – and the site Ed's audition film with
McQueen (for a DVD) is on there. The next day he goes to work, its obvious that all his
coworkers know about his doing porn. Ed is asked to resign from his job as a security
officer due to security reasons.
Upset, Ed then tries to contact McQueen, but he is unable to call through to him. This is
because McQueen was being hounded by journalists at the time and he explains it to Ed.
They then talk about plans for the future, like going on a cruise and stuff. Ed gets a little
drunk, and confesses he watched a porno with McQueen and Ryan. More context on this
is that Ryan and McQueen did something like a 'non-consensual' kink play? It's not
actually non-consensual and its not rape for sure, but Ryan apparently has a history of
sexual assault prior and told Ed before that McQueen exploits vulnerable men for money
i.e. something like he basically did the shoot because he was in a vulnerable position
(drug issues money issues etc.). Ed watched the porno, and then tell McQueen he agrees
with Ryan that what happened was rape. McQueen is livid to think that Ed could think
something like that of him, and says something along the lines of "I can't believe I was
falling in love with you". They break up and don't contact each other for weeks after that.
Ed gets a job at the airport, but its not very stable. Prior to this, Ed had already stopped
doing porn was also working for Chang doing some security, but he stopped that too after
the porn reveal and hasn't contacted Chang since.
Lancer contacts Ed who is now in high demand because of the porn reveal, and asks him
to do escort/prostitution work with him (He gave him an Escort card way earlier in the
novels I think as an invitation already). Ed wonders if McQueen will find out, and then
decides that he "doesn't care" and so on New Years Day, Lancer tells him that he's got
this client and that Lancer raised the price on him (because of his high demand); Ed
doesn't know who he is, but he turns up anyway. The client is Chang.
3. Chang
Chang ha sn't met Ed since the porn reveal, New Years Day is the first time they're
meeting after the reveal. Chang doesn't believe at first that Ed actually came, and Ed tries
to walk away after realising its Chang. But Chang physically grabs him and tells him he
paid for him, showing him the escort card he took from Ed's apartment (given by Lancer
earlier). Chang offers to make Ed's debt disappear – if he stays beside him for a year. Ed
considers and then refuses thinking this guy is the one who even ruined his life by
saddling him with this debt in the first place. They argue, Chang makes jibes about Ed
doing sex work and Ed, fed up, asks him if he wants to be fucked. Ed pulls down Chang's
zipper to prove a point.
Then Chang pushes Ed onto the bed and starts getting physical with him. At several
points, Ed says it hurts, and that he wants it to stop. Chang mocks him, bites him, and
continues anyway. Ed tries to punch him to get away from him, saying he's changed his
mind and telling him to stop. He grabs his clothes and tries to escape several times but
fails. Chang r*pes Ed. In this interim, Ed realises that Chang has had feelings for him all
along, and that he's just been trying to ignore it the whole time; after the deed is done,
he asks Chang if he likes him – and Chang doesn't confirm or deny it. Ed tells him it
doesn't matter because Chang is dead to him anyway, and tells Chang he wants to ruin
him, like Chang ruined Ed.
He walks out (Chang is still there), to run into McQueen – Ed wondered previously if
McQueen was going to find out about him doing escort/prostitution work so he clearly did
– McQueen tells Ed he didn't want to break up with Ed in the first place, tells him that he
loves him, and that he wants to get back together. Ed wants to say yes, but he just had
sex with (was raped by) Chang, so he doesn't respond, just leaves both men without
saying anything. McQueen and Chang fight, and Ed sees McQueen again the next day;
McQueen tells him he doesn't care about the whole Chang thing, and they get back
together.
McQueen tells him he's quitting porn for him and selling the company, and tells Ed to
check his bank account – $500, 000, which is the amount he owes Chang. Chang actually
confesses his feelings to Ed after this, and Ed tells him he doesn't care and to check his
bank account, that's his answer. Essentially he pays off his debt, and from there he's
saying that they no longer will have any ties to each other.
/

/
So essentially I wanted to clarify a few things.
Ed didn't lose his bodyguard job because of McQueen but the journalist actually, and
McQueen didn't abandon him because of the reveal at all. He had a huge debt to Chang –
but McQueen didn't pay it off probably because $500, 000 is kind of not pocket change??
He sold his company and paid off Ed's debts. McQueen is not the cause of Ed doing
escorting; that's Ed's choice. Their break up was NOT caused by Ed not wanting to do an
adult movie with McQueen.
McQueen and Ed's relationship is complex, and ultimately human. They make mistakes
and there's miscommunication and there's arguments of course, but there's also reasons
why certain things unfold the way they do. The novels are way longer than the webtoons,
and lots of things have been and will be taken out. So bear in mind that too.
I hope this helped in some way and if anyone else is going to bullshit about the 'spoiler'
without knowing what they're talking about again i'm going to hit the roof.

Everyone is talking about how the desks are stuck together, and im here feeling bad for the students who sit there--(⊙…⊙ )

COMPLETED EXCUSE ME?? This had so much potential

Yuuichhi's crazy face is my guilty pleasure...

Me: oh god yuuichi, degrade me more with your filthy mouth of yours

You can see that he lost consciousness for a second, the uke even says "his eyes... Get ahold of yourself!", then he knotted (when an alpha fucks an omega with the intent to get them pregnant, their penis will swell and the bulge on the base of their shaft will grow so that the alpha stays inside till he's done cumming, he can't pull out. It's a biology thing in canines, the instincts go for max pregnancy possibility.) inside because his instincts were looking for and found the place to get him pregnant, so he couldn't pull out. The knotting started to hurt the uke, which brought the seme back to his senses and the uke was impregnated while they were waiting to be able to pull it out. He only used his pheromones to show that he hadn't used them up till then, not to rape him, he was showing that the sex they'd had previously were all without influence from his pheromones. If the uke's instincts are being taken into account, the seme's should be as well. No, i don't think it was rape in the same way it wasn't rape when the uke came at him with his pheromones, it was all instincts and couldn't be helped. If you're saying the seme raped him, then the uke raped him too, multiple times, WITH pheromones. If you want to say they raped each other, fine, but that seems like such a sad way to look at it.

If he needed someone to destroy the book he just needed to call me. I ruin everything I touch.

Junseo is my favorite character by so far, with or without backstory. I just love how he's sarcastic but still so gentle and loving. He's not like someone who will force JW to love him but will work hard to earn it. Im not sure whether he's going to end up with Jaewon but please can I have a story about him? He's such an interesting character.
Tho I still ship JW X JS coz it will be such a perfect pair Wahhhh ╥﹏╥

This is how I understand the story being told. And at the end I'll also add the lose points that I think are still missing. And for a first, this'll be a long post...
The theme for this season is about memory loss. Important memories of Monday and Mono to be exact.
It's spring time, hades season... and there's a legend about people missing and when they came back they lost their memories and you can smell flowers.
First hades world, where Mananan, Mon, Mono and Baron fell down. It's kind of a memory harvest and he collected the spring flowers for persophone (her wife).
About losing their memories, there's another legend Mon had mention, orpheus and eurydice. A background about this myth... they're a couple, married and lived happily but it was predicted that their perfection was not meant to last for years. Eurydice died. After some events, Hades was pleased by Orpheus and he gave Eurydice back to him. They will be together again in the condition that he will not look back until he leave that underworld but in the end he looked back and Eurydice was gone forever. Apparently, they have 6 days and hades will return the important memories so they have to go back to where they lost them.
As to why Monday and Mono was targeted... my theory is that it has something to do with the "revelation" gram sees. Also Raphael and Lucifer has something distributed on this. If you remember, Raphael proposed a game to Lucifer and Raphael is the one who handle's Lilith. And Lilith has something to do why Monday and Mono falls down in the Netherland.

Regarding the memories... it is said that Hades only gets the normal memories and not the important ones but in the story's case, Mon and Mono had lost important memories. One example of lost memories that was given as explained by Rum; "the person might actually remember he loves the other but he might not remember the reasons why." so the fundamental of feelings and how it is handled might be different. As people live base on their important memories this is like being death.

Now the relationships, Mananan and Monday...
Mananan is insecure because Monday never confirmed his feelings for him (didn't say i love you), he thinks Mon was just being swayed by him. he worries that Mon's wish was something like to end their relationship (apparently, the wish is one of Mon's lost memories so we still don't know what that is though it was said that he realized something he wants after talking to Mono). Since some parts of the memory may come back more clearly, Sunday(Mon's brother) suggest to take Mon to a completely unfamiliar place to reduce the shock. That's why currently he's in Mananan's place.

Mono and Baron... (even though I ship this, in this post I'll explain how It looks obejectively)
We got to see that Mono has a past relationship (first love that didn't work). Baron(Mananan's father) was introduced as someone who let him know what love is and made him know that he can't get anything that he desire. There are still a lot of lose ends with their story but what we have now is that, when Mono was young he fools around and tease people like he do now. And Baron is one of the people he approach to fools around with. They have a sort of relationship where they both have affections for each other and they still call themselves "friends". It was hinted that the relationship breakoff and that Mono runs away from Baron. That Mono did something to Baron. At the end of the latest chapter... forgetting something, Mono kisses Baron and wonders why he should push him away and begs him to don't come near him.
So in this relationship we don't know what did Mono do to Baron. As his last line before exiting the netherworld, "i didn't regret what happened at all... eh, but... why did I do that back then?". I think this might be related to angel's duties. Angels are defined by duties after all.

Mono and Lego...
Since Lego came (even from the first season) he always have a vital role on the turns of events. Lego has been targeted by mares and demons and Lilith (in this season) and is always saved by Mono. It is made clear that Lego likes Mono but he tries to deny it(because he's a tsundere xD), refer to his conversation with his childhood friend. After the trial, Mono had told him that he don't have to come to the department anymore but still returns there and this is because he's wondering who called out to him. (Refer to Ch.30) This is after the retrial when Raphael, Uriel and Baron arrived at Lucifers office. At first I thought it might be Mono or Baron but on the next chapter it was shown that Mono was talking to Baron then so I'm not sure but my guess is its Raphael who called out to him. Because Raphael handles Lilith and Lilith was there when Lego realizes about the flowers. In the latest chapter, Lego is shown to be worried that Mono loses his important memories and base on his attitude he might do something about it. Demons are defined by instincts after all.

Monday and Mono...
This season is about their story and base on the current things presented by the author, I see similar things between them...
They both live base from their important memories (sad and burdensome memories).
second, they are both afraid of losing something important.
Monday:
"To love someone and break up with them, that gives lots of fears."
"Why did i think that? I'm going to lose him anyway."
"Do you think we were born to be happy? Do you think we can be as happy as before?"
"Sometimes emotions are difficult."
Mono:
"Emotions are borrowed concept which means they must return it once given a task. What's the point anyway?"
"Then again, when I think about it... it was enough time for both of us to change. We're just going to split up again anyway."
"If both sadness and happiness are predetermined, should we even try to be happy?"
"We are so pitiful." *You are too much of a burden.

This is all my observations and understanding of the story of how the author presented it to us readers. I hope it help other people who kind of got confused by the story. Sorry for the long post and thanks for reading. I hope things will get clearer on the next chapters. :D
I've really become invested in this manhwa. I love the angst this season. It's so beautiful I felt like I would cry. T^T

When a side couple's story is more popular than the original one. xD

tbh I don't like takao...he pisses me off somehow...

maybe cuz I don't like how he's breaking away from yuki so easily?? and to a certain extent he's ignoring how yuki feels....and that IS SO ANNOYING.

He's giving me the
"Oh I found someone different, let's go!"
by using the excuse of "I want to change" type of feeling...

I feel that if someone really wants to change, they should work hard and do it on their own effort. Putting in effort to change on their own whether is it making new friends, communicating with others, learning how to speak up, etc..
But all I'm seeing from this manga is "I want to change" = getting away from my overprotective friend and hang out with the seme.

okok bash me all u want

Yay! Now to move on to the important characters! (All hate intended, I couldn't stand this first story) ╮(￣▽￣)╭

I mean I love yaoi, much love, this yaoi is just so great i mean Kouta and Haruto have this relationship where its not just sex. Kouta has insecurities, he overthinks, and has doubts just like anyone else in a relationship or at least I can relate to. And then we also have this nice guy, who's the seme, Haruto understands the word no, and he understands Kouta and he listens to him and tries to stop him from overthinking too much and reassures him that he wants their relationship just as much as Kouta does. And aughf it's just one of those mangas that make you really enjoy reading because I can empathize with the characters. BUT EITHER WAY I REALLY LOVE THIS MANGA AND ALL MANGA OFCOURSE(▰˘◡˘▰)

People are hating on John but if they were in his shoes they will act so much worse. Have you guys forgotten they tortured John and I say tortured not bullied because they went over the line multiple times and almost killed him. Also, Arlo is calling John fake, Arlo didn't you fake friend John for a month and then attack him with two other people which caused John to hit his breaking point. John also emphasized that with the break phone comment. Y'all need to get over your selves.
