I'll still read it anyways to pass time and see how it ends but damn.

They should've locked Jaewon up in an asylum instead of getting him to a pedia or pulmo whichever organ keeps on acting up, because it's for sure nothing else but the brain.

That aside, I just know the reward will be so sweet once both Seoin and Yeongwoon figure out their own problems and how their hold their values. Seoin heavily utilizes on sex as a tool for power, as a means to assert aggression and control, whereas Yeongwoon sees that intimacy as something sacred, something monogamous, exclusive, and permanent.

Slowly, but surely, Seoin would realize how much Yeongwoon cherished their relationship it broke him just as much as how Seoin shattered in a different way; and soon enough they'll be able to care for each other without anymore facades. Without having to use each other and going back and forth, no more manipulative plans or whatsoever.

I just wish the whole ordeal with Jaewon gets to be revealed first between Seoin and Jaewon, that way they have a starting ground on how to rebuild their trust, because that was the catalyst of how their friendship fell apart. I don't think they can delve into Yeongwoon's abuse without looking into that. The only time we get a glimpse of Youngwoon's past is when someone else gets involved because Yeongwoon keeps such a close and tight lid on his feelings—which is ironic considering how the story portrays him almost like an impulsive open book. And yet there's Seoin airing out all his dirty laundry yet plays to be one of the more mysterious and distant guys. The moment that dirty laundry is cleaned, I feel like that's how we get to see the dirty parts of Yeongwoon's life.

Anyways that's my two cents on this, I really hope that Jaewon ordeal gets burned so fast, thank God he is DEAD. If he can cause this much turmoil while dead, I can't imagine how much more if he was alive as a fully grown adult capable of even more horrors.

They piss me off so bad, I cannot believe how they have such a warm and supportive relationship while bearing some of the heaviest traumas in their heart.

I hope they live and love long and strong and have lots of healthy puppies.

I'd have a few (or a lot) of loose screws in my head and live a carefree life if I had to live over hundreds of years and will continue to do so.

I don't think our uke here is even keeping check of time nor thinks of the technical description of "growing up" as what it is because he has absolutely no concept of time. What he's just seeing is someone's soul that he's loved in the past, and maybe other souls he's met in the previous generations.

Comedic at best, a little lonely to think about in the other hand. I don't think it's fair game to put normal societal moral standards to a guy who has zero concept of time, and has a one track mind: loving the exact soul of his past lover. Besides he doesn't even hold a grudge if the seme doesn't reciprocate. Uke is just living his life, if he sees his lover reincarnate, the current years would be sweet to his sight and his soul. If not, he'll just live away until then.

But it'd valid /for the character/ to feel distant. That's /his/ feelings to ruminate about. But for the readers? I think we should just enjoy whatever crazy is going on because you can't expect anything normal from someone who's immortal. I mean, I'm already about to end it all in my thirties, what more to a guy at 250 years old repeatedly seeing his loved ones die? I'd be mental.

I'm actually so impressed. Chapter 29 dialogues has got to be one of my favorite specific chapters across a lot of manhwa/mangas.

The way Vasya was able to verbalize the biggest strain in their relationship and his biggest fear in their relationship as well as Yoon internalizing the gravity of the roles they play in their relationship: 10/10 reading experience. I really, really enjoyed it!

I want 100 more of VasyaYoon content.

This thing is going to kill me fr. Pls let my obsessed kings stay happy with each other.

I sped through most of the chapters until I got to the scene where ML crashed out. It was so good but a bit too short. I hope ML crashes out even more and suffers.

I'd get which Wooju accepted the pill from Jiheon, they were childhood friends after all. But him accepting it from the professor is... I think it's the drug. He's way too hysterical, forgetful, and anxious.

Suspecting his professor that he admired, especially when Cha gave him a place to say, not to mention listened to his hysteria, Wooju probably felt like he shouldn't suspect him.

But, well, look at where we are now

This is really making me miss Vasily.

But both points were really valid, honestly. Vasya did do as much as he could to provide for Yoon and that's beyond the bare minimum for a someone who lives in a dangerous line of work. He doesn't ignore his work, but he adjusts his schedule by a bit to find time to have fun and look after Yoon.

At the same time, Yoon saying that the amount of times they see in a year could possible just be 10 to 12... Is concerning. This isn't like those long distance relationships where you can call each other freely. Yoon sits at home waiting in silence wondering if Vasya will ever even return.

Yoon has always lived the citizen life. He may be a money launderer which is by no means a regular job, but he was still a citizen. He wasn't exactly cut-out for the mafia lifestyle. The anxiety of being a sitting duck, the uncertainty of your future... back then he could just sleep around and enjoy, now he was tied in an exclusive relationship and each time it's quiet, he would have more time to think about how he'll grow old like this.

Vasya also makes a good point. The Vasya now is someone committed to the growth of the Mafia, he's done everything and stripped himself of his immaturity back then, which is why he can't just abandon the mafia for the sake of love.

Vasily was pivotal to move Vasya and Yoon's relationship. Vasily showed what a future with Yoon could look like (ironic that Vasily is from 'the past', yet gave Yoon a sense of permanency). Yoon probably saw what it would be like to live and grow old with a man who loves you so much and could spend every day with you. At the same time, Vasily showed Vasya that he probably had to make his choices between splitting the mafia work or moving his relationship with Yoon beyond the 'ambigous and slightly ghosty dating phase'.

Both Vasya and Yoon needed something stronger to hold onto in their relationship, Vasily showed them exactly what they should decide on.

Anyways, I miss Vasily... God...

I saw the teary-eyed top panel and my first thought was Ash then I knew.

Love this freaky one shot. Short and sweet.
