They will make it out alive.
And can the fandom stop acting like divorced parents!
In the same vein as Reddit, TikTok, and Twitter, the many want them to end their relationship, leave each other permanently because it's a simple way out when things go south or get "problematic." My desire is for them to part ways and move on from each other so that they can get help, become better, and prioritize their own needs. Really, there are two emotional comprised individuals with a lot of trauma who, instead of supporting one another, instead inflict each other in a constant circle. Even if I want them not to go back together and instead leave the story in a open ending with them moving on ( bittersweet) I know that not what the creator intention. ( I just want them to get therapy, not love)
( T﹏T )
Sky is so strong cause he was shocked when he was hit by Cirrus (ch 117). And he wiped his nose blood casually. Fucking cool besides this angst.
+1000 aura
Real. He was like: just another day
+1mil aura
i think it’s the other way bud ☹ back in his old school remember when he got his shit rocked my minwoo and his gang? its prob bc of that he didn’t react much to the punch. hes possibly used to physical pain bc of his past so thats why he doesnt react or he seems strong…
It could be that, but naturally there’s also a lot of people who react this way so I didn’t think too deeply about it. The trauma does play a role though.
Is the guy MC dreamed about in ch 4, the same one in cover?
yes lol that guy's hair just magically turned white though
Extreme stress can turn someone's hair to have some gray/white spots, but for it to change almost completely (except for the roots) in one night is crazy LMAO
LMAO yeah I'm aware haha, it's not possible for a complete change overnight like you said though so at first i also thought it was someone else
╮(￣▽￣)╭
The author must have used the Marie-Antoinette Syndrome, where hair colour changes to white overnight because of extreme stress. Still, the sudden personality change, coinciding with the hair colour change? Wish the author put more chapters first before the personality switch.
It makes sense but no research shows that its possible to happen overnight plus the condition itself is pretty rare usually happens over the span of a couple days or weeks, it's more of a myth and a fictional thing which makes sense because this manhwa is all fictional, the author should've definitely waited a couple of more chapters to develop the character because it seems to be moving too fast, which makes it slightly confusing and annoying because I want plot but it seems like this bl is going the smutt direction lol (⌒▽⌒)
Yes, the hair colour changing overnight did add a dramatic flair to the fictional story, but it doesn’t add anything to the plot which is as thin as paper now. Why make the premise so interesting with dark undertones, if it’s just a gimmick for a smut fest in disguise. Hope the plot thickens after this.
I am forever a SKYRUS team. I will defend Sky from the slander and Cirrus from the slander, not their actions but the constant hate on them and the lack of empathy from readers.
Chapter 117 versus. Chapter 87, where Cirrus had a falling out with his stepmother and strangled her I think, Skylar stopped him and Cirrus stopped, while in Ch 117 Skylar couldn't stop him and was hit. OH IT IS GOING DOWNHILL.
Based off raws, after the argument and Skylar left to head home, Cirrus went home too and he called Skylar all night till morning (7AM). He probably thought it was the end of their relationship because Skylar wouldn’t pick up. It’s somewhat similar to the time he tried to call his nanny but didn’t get an answer.
I think Sky’s phone was off. Cirrus went to school, looking cuckoo. He saw how Sky was just acting like nothing happened, while he felt that only himself was being irrational and not calm.
He lost it. He also fought the fatty and Skylar came in the middle, pulling him back. But Cirrus was so angry that he hit Skylar in the face, causing Skylar’s nose to bleed. Skylar seemed shocked.
From how I saw it, I guess Cirrus was pissed that he was ignored and seeing Skylar interrupt his fight pissed him off even more. He’s like: “You’re the one who ended things, now you want to barge in and stop me?”
Or simply he was blinded by anger and didn’t think before hitting Skylar.
I can see why readers at mad at Skylar, but I don’t agree that he deserved the hit, he was mad for a reason and has the right to ignore if he needs space. I also don’t hate on Cirrus for hitting Skylar’s face, I’m sure it was out of anger and their fights cancel out…
We don’t know the fully translated context so we gotta wait as Author feeds us angst after angst. We need to start a riot for real cause what is author doing to us!
Skylar and Cirrus deserves happiness. Aim so sad.
Double Edit: Okay some readers who read raw are saying Cirrus had been calling Skylar until 7 in the morning after their argument, wanting to talk. And then he sees Skylar acting like nothing happened. I guess that’s when Cirrus lost it and his anger boiled.
Edit: Jusr saw the scenes where Cirrus in latest chapter raw, he was beating the fat ass’s ass and ended up hitting Skylar in the face while Skylar tried to stop him. I’m actually shocked he did that to Sky, but I’d be a hypocrite if I called him a villain cause Sky did the same before by beating Cirrus until bloodied. Both did it out of anger, it cancels out! Hear me? All they need is to talk, and I hope Cirrus apologizes cause Sky looked shocked that he was even hit.
To those saying Sky deserved it, be so for real. I personally don’t like the violence on violence. This isn’t some payback, Cirrus did it while blinded by anger as he was beating the fatty.
I don’t agree that Skylar deserved it. Yes he did beat Cirrus, but that was out of anger but I don’t justify it either. And here, Cirrus hit Skylar but I don’t justify it either, nor will I cancel him over that.
_______________________________
Someone said this and I agree: Cirrus is worse than Skylar. It could also be because their childhood is quite different. Of course Skylar’s parents weren’t too great, but they did care. And Cirrus grew up with dysfunctional family, seeing new women with his father almost every month, being treated badly.
Skylar isn’t the villain. Cirrus isn’t either. We can fault them for their mistakes, but I still think they’re redeemable and I hope things get better.
It is vague or just not it for me to just solely blame it all on Cirrus, same for Sky. I mean we all know Skylar didn’t react for no reason, he’s not the type to. I do agree that Cirrus has provoked Sky though, and thus leading to Sky’s reactions. I also think Sky’s reactions (beating, using trauma) is too far, but I know it’s valid. I’d probably do the same.
As much as some don’t wanna admit, they went into a relationship too early. They literally skipped the friendship stage, in my opinion.
Skylar wanted to hide their relationship, Cirrus felt that he wasn’t loved or something and felt Sky was distant, leading to more of his insecurities opening up or just worsening.
As much as I did dislike what Sky said, he isn’t too wrong when he said: How can you love when you grew up without it?
I do think it was harsh, but it was kinda true. Not that Cirrus isn’t capable of love, but he STRUGGLES to love. Of course things like this will happen when being provoked a lot or specifically here, lied to right in the face. I know Cirrus was scared to lose what they have, so wrong timing, but he really should’ve come clear before they even dated.
But they both rushed into things. I can’t say both are evil, they’re struggling. I can only hope for the best, even if it means they may not end up together. Healing over dating at the moment, is my priority.
Whose hands are those in the cover? Is it just MLs hands as symbolism or what? I do not like love triangle or third parties bs
i think the one with the bandage is his friend that he used to play music with. the one that tried to khs. as for the tattooed hand, i’m not sure. i don’t think he came out in season 1 raws but idr
Ugh I really hope it won’t be rivals, most likely but hole
Hope*
I was wondering what the hype for this story was, until I see it’s the same author where I read A Thousand Cranes and her other stories.
Haven’t checked this out in a long time, I see, no progress and still on the grooming path.
Anyone who thinks this is cute while seeing the grown man blushing at a kid and weird scenes, is just questionable. I hope I never meet you people in reality.
There are two victims of their environment that hurt each other. Skylar has been betrayed by his closest friend, Minwoo, in the past. And he went as far as to attempting suicide, and he was also sexually assaulted and lied to by his friend. His friend had schemed a plan, having another guy kiss Skylar, with Skylar believing it was his friend. If I’m not wrong, word went around in school.
Skylar struggles with anxiety and anger issues, as well as depression based off what I remember and saw during S1. Everyone has depression here.
Cirrus, the only child, comes from an abusive family, a father that blamed him for the loss of his wife, meanwhile ignoring the cries of his own child that lost a mother. And he has a stepmother that manipulated him, and all adults around Cirrus has failed him (including his pedophile teacher). At the same time, despite his tough exterior, he’s afraid to be abandoned and failed by his loved ones again.
He sought for control by manipulating, that’s all he’s ever known. As Skylar said in the raws, “How can you love when you’ve grown up without it?”
—While I don’t fully agree, it makes sense in a way because we can see Cirrus struggling with love and finding it hard to manage his feelings, his insecurities.
I don’t believe that abused children aren’t capable of love, they are, in fact many of them grow up like an emotional sponge. No matter the emotional abuse or physical, they’ll try to hold onto who they have left.
In the raws, Skylar confronted Cirrus with his lies and gave Cirrus a chance to explain himself, and also come clear. But did Cirrus? No. Is this all Cirrus’s fault? No.
Did Skylar say hurtful words? Yes. Did he mean it? Anyone who KNOWS and READ the story, will know Skylar didn’t mean what he said. He has a habit of saying hurtful stuff, but he always regrets it.
Did Skylar react too much? NO. He reacted quite as expected, especially when you are betrayed again. I know the current Cirrus (with development) hasn’t done that in present day, but it is merely:
“Consequences will catch up to you one day.”
While Cirrus had apologized for everything and we shouldn’t hold a grudge when Skylar has accepted his apology, there are some stuff that Cirrus didn’t directly mention. So I am GLAD this happened, the truth came to light and I can rest in peace somewhat.
“You to me, the more precious you became, the less courage I had to tell you. I’m so happy with my ordinary life with you. Even though I knew it was wrong, I’m afraid you’d leave me. I’m so scared.” —Cirrus
This just proves that Cirrus is afraid of Skylar leaving him. He made a mistake in continuously hiding it, but he had a reason even if not justifiable, his own trauma being his speaker. Unlike other toxic characters, these two actually have redeeming qualities, and a chance to be better people in the near future. I love Skylar, I love Cirrus.
Forever a SKYRUS fan.
SIDE QUESTIONS:
A. I wonder what Chan-il said specifically to Skylar, about him being introduced to Ri-in. Did he word it as if Cirrus schemed to introduce them together? Or did Chan-il tell Skylar that he was the one who asked Cirrus to introduce Ri-in to him?
Remember, Chan-il was the one who asked Cirrus to be introduced to Ri-in and had asked Cirrus if he knew her. I don’t believe that Chan-il would purposefully scheme anything against Cirrus though.
B. Is Skylar more mad that Cirrus continued to lie after being confronted, or more mad that Cirrus had purposefully made Skylar see Chan and Ri-in together at the amusement park?
YOU'RE SO RIGHT. thank you so much for saying all this because so many people are misunderstanding both of them...
Right. Nobody is the evil here.
I cried so hard at the mention of " How can you love when you've grown up without it" and cirrus replying "Do you really think that?" considering cirrus had a rather traumatic childhood where he wasn't given love after his mothers demise. All he had was candy and skylar saying that to him must hurt him bad ughh I cried ugly as I empathize. I know skylar might've said that out of spite or anger or whatever but man can't they'll just be happy PLEASEEEEE! Also I hope chan-il doesn't tell skylar in a way that cirrus was setting him up with ri-in (psps chan-il don't be a menace)as he was the one asking cirrus to introduce first, but what shouldn't be forgotten was the fact during that time cirrus did took his chances that by introducing ri-in to chan-il he'd have the hope of getting skylar's attention.. anyways I hope we get a happy ending or at least everyone healed of their trauma
I feel like Chan-il did say it in a way as if Cirrus planned the whole introducing them. Cirrus has no control over them being together, just the part where he had made Skylar watch and cry over his “crush” being with his soon to be girlfriend, was def messed up.
This is why I give the side eye when some say Skylar did NOTHING wrong. I’m sure he did something wrong, saying hurtful words, as I mentioned in my post.
But that isn’t the same cirrus anymore. He has developed and it’s only his consequences catching up to him. I do hope for a good happy ending too! It’s heartbreaking right now, I can’t handle it too much.
Yep agreed with your sentiments. Also remember that one time where skylar forgot his camera and in their outing, chan-il said he would give it back. I wonder if he had seen something during that period and was trying to get in between the both of them ( and I really couldn't explain or pinpoint what reason that could be as there are 3 deductions that could be the case in my head lol) and with what he's said to skylar, makes me think hmm does this guy have a hidden mask behind his goody two shoes persona (remember even cirrus said he feeds off of people's misfortune as that made him feel good?) They just need to hear each other out like COMMUNICATE in a calm manner. My heart won't be able to handle if any more were to happen.. WE NEED THEM HAPPY
Okay so either the twin brother and ML planned together to force MC to have sex with ML, and the twin brother is a cuck—enjoys watching his partner (ML) fuck MC.
OR the ML cheated on the twin brother (seems like that), and the twin brother didn’t care and enjoyed seeing his brother be fucked by his partner.
I feel so sad. Maybe if this was mutually agreed beforehand, I wouldn’t mind. Twin ukes x seme is actually very hot, I’m tired of the opposite as it’s common. But this is done horribly.
I don’t know how the twin brother truly feels. Is he coping by being a cuck in the end or what? I know some people who self destruct by letting things be like this situation.
