like- does the uke have to cry everytime for the bich ass seme to feel bad for them? like I SWEAR TO GOD COugH cOUgH *painter of the night* CougH CoUGh
Though I do agree, what I think is trying to be presented is that since the MC is mute, the feelings they are trying to say is a little hard to understand. Yes, you can tell what emotion he is showing but you can't understand word for word what he is trying to say, therefore the seme is having trouble finding out the MC really likes him. The seme is also bad at loving, so the mute part really has a big part in misunderstandings. Just wanted to say that but I do agree that a lot of yaois' ukes have to cry for the seme to have sympathy (=・ω・=)
i literally love every interaction of igris and Iron lmao, they're so funny
