So this world was built for MC? Is that why everyone loves him? Romantically or just friendly besides the ML?
And is ML and MC together or they’re just companions?
AND— in ch 7.5, MC says that the twins visited him last week or something, did he have sex with the twins? So MC will still be sleeping with others?
Just trying to see how this dynamic is with other characters.
He didn’t even do a lot of wrong. He made a mistake but nobody talks about how MC slapped him lmao. You don’t assault someone for breaking up. ML calmly broke it off because he didn’t want MC to go along with his roughness or something sadism, cause he knows MC goes along with the roughness to please ML.
ML being hated for that is appalling. Instead of hating on him, why don’t you request for therapy for MC who needs it? His trauma is not ML’s responsibility, yes ML may have triggered MC, but that is not solely due to ML.
I do think both of them could’ve made rational choices but we wouldn’t have a story if they made rational choices.
People wanting Kang to be jealous even after he’s already jealous is being too much. Yes, Kang fucked up and so did Yiyoung by lacking boundaries with this new dude + lying about who he was with, going with the dude, especially knowing that the new dude hit on him and told him he doesn’t care if Yi has a partner.
We don’t need more jealousy bs, go read the straight alpha and omega stories if you want jealousy annd rage bait only. Also, there’s a bunch of mainstream BL that have the bottoms being chased by every guy on the planet, and the MLs there screaming like Hyenas out of jealousy.
Let’a not act like some of you guys didn’t promote the borderline cheating, and was joking about him going on a date or two timing. Yiyoung did not cheat, it just felt like it, and he is a simp for Kang only.
I feel like people reacted differently when it turned out that the new dude actually likes Kang. Suddenly they don’t want the jealousy and is mad about how Yiyoung isn’t the one being chased.
It’s very immature. All of the characters and readers. I get that we are mad at Kang though, I am too, so I am waiting for a good long DISCUSSION from both, NOT JEALOUSY ARCs. Save that for immature relationships.
And the new dude can go find a new man cause Kang is only for Yi. This dude has BEEN a homewrecker the moment he said: “I don’t care if you have a partner,” to Yiyoung.
No, I don’t feel sympathy for the new dude. He didn’t even confess, why should I feel sorry? And he also was being real creepy towards Yiyoung.
SAME.
And that's definitely true! They can be nice for a short moment that leads to confessions and whatnot or somewhat longer chapters that make sure the reader understands inner struggles, sees endearing or silly behavior or we can just reach a point to clear up dramatic backgrounds/trauma. But many people just throw jealousy in the comic to prolong the story...and that is never pleasant to read. ╥﹏╥
I DO think Kang needs jealousy as a trigger to open his damn mouth or the two of them talking and revealing Kang's issues, but overdoing it isn't good and it's NOT the only option to get to that point in the story.
Fingers crossed the author remains good at writing and doesn't go for more jealousy but something else instead. ( ̄∇ ̄")
EDIT: I see some comments calling Emperor a sperm bank, they forgot the “Forced Sperm Bank Didn’t-Er!”
And yes; he deserves to be called a sperm bank since he’s a deadbeat, just it was taken from him forcefully.
—Warning: Mentions of Rape, Abuse.
—Have not caught up fully, so don’t attack me if I didn’t see what you saw!
The Empress is a piece of shit mother. So is the father, but personally I can be more lenient on him compared to the empress who’s a fucking rapist and fucked his father’s mental state. Didn’t the empress beat MC? Forgiveness for neglect from both? No. But it’s up to MC if he forgives or not, personally I wouldn’t forgive or maybe I would with the emperor, but not forget.
Neglect is not it. I’ve gone through it myself, although my mother and I are much closer as I aged, she still struggles mentally. My mother was raped by father, and had me. She took it out on me, didn’t just neglect but beat me many times, compared me with other children. I never told anyone, not even my therapist. She does not hit me anymore though, so that’s nice. And she’s repented, a lot of shit happened, and just messy.
Do I forgive her? No. Why would I? I’m still hurt when I remember, but I remained to stay with her as she’s aging.
Just switch genders of the Emperor to Empress who was raped by the emperor. Obviously emperor is a coward when it comes to his son, but there’s clearly a defined reason: it’s his rapist’s child too.
It’s easy to tell him to not be a coward, but why expect that from a victim who’s not good around their rapist?
I see some telling him to stand up. Are you guys crazy?
Just because he’s the emperor, a man, doesn’t mean he’s in full authority, there’s societal orders and parliament stuff, and the empress clearly has some influence too.
Telling a VICTIM to stand up to their perpetrator is crazy talk, I sense little to NO sympathy. I even read someone saying: Emperor MIGHT have been hurt by the empress, but…bah blah.
—Might?
But of course, Emperor is still a shitty father. I just feel some sympathy for him. My thought is:
—This dude could’ve been a great father had he not been raped, had his hate not been born from rape.
I really hope he finds out about MC being a dominant omega, I need him to collapse and be on his deathbed for 5 seconds or faint at the very least. And he deserves to be beat for neglecting, I won’t condone any of his hateful actions.
MC doesn’t deserve neglectful parents. He doesn’t deserve to be hated for being born from a rapist mother, and victim father. Children are innocent, and should not have to deal with these types of parents.
Spoiler:
If I recall right, the MC kinda forgave the emperor I think in the novel, but they aren’t super close yet like father and son—it’s very slow even at the end and doesn’t really say more.
i get where you’re coming from, but i think there’s some nuances when it comes to the emperor+empress’ relationship. he firstly lied to her when marrying her and lead her under the assumption that he’ll have her kids, he basically wanted her family’s power without having to give himself to his wife. SA is, of course, not the answer - but i think that they do have a see-saw like power dynamic that goes up and down. he doesn’t regret marrying the empress because he gets to enjoy her lavish power, he’s also willing to have her kill his own family members so he can sit on the throne. all whilst neglecting and abusing his own child. like i get that the child of your abuser is bound to make the victim uncomfortable in any ordinary situation, but can a man as greedy and vicious as him really be called simply a victim? i don’t know. i certainly don’t think he was capable of being a good unconditionally loving father if he conceived a child consensually because he isn’t a good person in general. i think this has nuances for sure, but under any circumstances an adult should NEVER leave a child to their abuser. and the emperor knowingly did just that. which on top of all his other ‘“sins” makes me extremely unempathetic toward him, he’s just so damn pathetic imo. but each to their own ig
What he did doesn’t warrant rape from empress, not that you said that. Historical times, nobles will always want power so that’s to be expected. He’s still a victim regardless of what he did. There’s a reason why abuse cycles exist, not that it is any better. Raping is inhumane which I consider empress as horrible being, that is my only point.
I get what you’re saying though. Thanks to your viewpoint or perspective, I don’t fully believe that the father would be the best father but he would’ve at least fought for his son to get on the throne IF the son was someone he wanted in first place with consent.
I only listed why he is the way he is, but I don’t agree with his abusive behavior. I just think the empress is a horrible being, so is the father for doing that to MC.
I’m just saying that it’s kinda insensitive to call a victim, coward, when they’re a victim and going through struggles, clearly he’s one for a reason. The mental struggles is not considered by some readers.
I don’t have very much empathy for noble men and women, but anyone who does horrible acts like rape and abuse is not it.
I’m very sensitive when it comes to rape especially, so my hatred for the empress is higher. And because she forced a child to be born into a world of greed and rich/noble life, shitty dynamic father and mother.
And I’m not sure if the emperor knows that the empress was hitting their child/MC. That’s why he should’ve been there as a father regardless of what had happened to him. I can sympathize with him on the part where he was raped and led to this dynamic, but involving innocent child…no.
I swear I remember the father saying he didn’t want to marry the empress but let me know, I have not caught up to this fully or forgot lmao, last time I read was almost a year ago I think. Overall I do believe that the father is a shitty guy. I won’t justify what he did because of his trauma, but there is def a reason.
I mainly made this post towards those justifying the empress’s disgusting actions too or acting like she did better. Honestly there shouldn’t be competition, but we are human beings and we do this sometimes, I did for sure.
I just hope majority does not think of her as the “slay” “queen!” Bull shit. Cause I def seen few commenting that.
Everyone can continue crapping on the father for neglect (form of abuse), but I better see nobody being giddy about them.
yep agree with everything you said! both the king and queen are just disgusting people in general for very different reasons - i think the queen to me is a default villain so her actions don’t shock me as much as she was introduced and continuously written as a genuinely horrible and monster-like person whereas the king, it feels like he’s deluding himself that he’s actually a good person and he tried to justify all his very horrible actions and that really angers me like in the latest chapter where he suddenly gets shocked that the empress might be abusing etienne even though he fully left her with him knowing she has abused them both and clearly has no plans of becoming a decent human he’s very self serving and pretends to care for others whilst also ruining their lives without a second thought. the villains who are the hardest to read for me are the ones that never think they are in the wrong :(
I dropped this around like ch 76. I have college stuff so busy. Someone just tell me: After ML and MC argue and they make up and have sex (it was the argument rape ML had with MC after he saw MC get a bouquet of flowers from blueberry head President dude), does things get better?
MC doesn’t have sex with others after that, right? Or he isn’t raped by blueberry head? Also I heard blueberry head has his own partner, who??
They made up and are bonded stronger. Other than that, there’s not much progress with blueberry head (Si-eon? The kor-chi hotel president right?) yet, but the other small guy who looks like MC just got bedded by blueberry as a substitute for MC. Lookalike talked back to blueberry too so he’s not just taking it crying
I hope the uke stops being a hoe since there’s an endgame anyways. I don’t like it when he’s gonna end up with someone else anyways, A GOD to be clear.
And you don’t disrespect god.
I wish there were more stories of hoe ukes playing around with others and NO ENDGAME. They are the most nice and fun stories. Not every story needs an endgame, yknow?
Thank you there was no cuckolding or 3rd party shit, while I hate it, I do get turned on sometimes. I have some cuckolding/voyeurism in my lists if anyone wants to see :). There’s one mainly cuckolding and it’s intense.
