So tj literally reveals Ian isn't the bad influence but let's Ian think he is because he likes the trouble look Ian gives him?? So basically tj puts himself and Ian into this mess (not as purposely) but gulits Ian (even years) after it, saying it's for him (Ian). This isn't real deep love, just obsession and infatuation.
Edit: and despite everything he says, feeling guilty of it, it just doesn't stand because he continues to do the things in present day.
Edit 2: Just noticed the flashback here in 56 is also in chapter 8. After Ian mother passes away. Idk kind werid to imply you finally have Ian to yourself "fully in my arms" after his mother pass, even after tj says it's the two of them now, Ian look at him weirdly (ch8) and in the audio drama tj actually say that part happily (his voice actor also confirms it). Tj maybe say he feels slight guilt but the present time and how he used certains things to his advantage with Ian says otherwise
it's so unfortunate that I can't stand the comment section for wet sand because I agree with everything you've been saying really lol. but rn I think it's best for me to remove myself for a bit
at this point I genuinely cannot understand how anyone (who apparently cares for ian) would want tj to be endgame. like it's truly beyond me I don't get it
Exactly. If you really care for Ian you would want him get away from the dude that restricts and hold him back from leaving to a new life.
I don't understand why people are trying to argue with you because what did you say other than stating what happened in the latests chapters.
I think I'm just gonna wait for wet sand to finish and come back to it bc I'm just so tired of hearing people's bad takes on the story. it's sooooo silly but gosh it's so annoying
