tbh it really took me by surprise on the later chapters when the ML was acting all innocent and naive coz his action and vibe on the first one (1-2 ch?) was like those unhinged characters that's barely keeping their insanity inside, also not to judge by the cover but it doesn't fit him lol, nothing against green flag MLs either specially those who are well written, but they can get a bit boring and flat at times, so this was starting to escape my radar.
This twist just peaked my interest on this work again- like why is he acting, what's his motive? what things are they hiding in that village for reals? If he's going for the play now, regret it later plot then I hope this will have a good chasing arc, specially since on the calendar where they were first featured he seemed so whipped for the MC too- here's to wishing a good "he fell first, but he fell harder" trope with this one
-I'll turn off my brain a notch for now and think this guy's really just stupid and couldn't read between the lines. So far it was shown that he lacks understanding on how his fetishes don't work for others like his co-actors in the stage play or his previous lover who just became scared of him. He might've genuinely thought that the top did agree to do the boombayah when he took his hands and came with him, still iffy though coz in a normal sense, the situation is still SA. But then again, the action does align with his character, I just hoped it was transitioned well instead to a better plotpoint. It's still 2 chapters in tho, I'll see some more if this will develop better coz this MC's interesting so far.
