can't believe they're the first one after mom and dad rabbit to build a new generation lmao
izek is pretty much the only one with a little bit of common sense here and actually learns from his mistakes of assuming shit and not talking it out.
i can't believe they're still letting that "friend" of theirs hang around them to comment on and witness any plot-relevant stuff after previous events. why would you trust her to even enter your house??!?!? it's just the fucking nanny head maid incident all over again. izek is the only one responding to her with the appropriate vitriol, distance, and distrust she deserves.
& why the fuck, after witnessing that, would any normal person with a braincell let her walk away and start plotting to keep it quiet, as if assuming FL already did something that HAD to be kept quiet for? infuriates me how they keep taking FL for granted and end up harming her when so many incidents have gone by to prove that she deserves to be understood and supported bc she's killing herself to please these people
where Kaelus will work in Diana's favor to keep her standing as crown princess after the boat sinks? like ok we get it you don't love her now, it's just a calculated move (allegedly)... but saying her remaining as a crown princess is for the benefit of the empire is hella shortsighted and detrimental to the current political climate. it really frustrated me reading that part.
i wonder of they'll change anything and make this part of the story less annoying
is by nerfing her abilities and critical thinking/having her kidnapped/getting on a compromised vehicle/having something fall somewhere/literally any dangerous event so ML can swoop in and save FL'
i hope the suspension bridge effect wipes my readers memories of all the bs that happened so far because she HAS to love him now and reach an epiphany while in danger right? and i won't have to make a decent character development arc right???
imagine if she hooks up with the useless asshole 'grandchild' and burns all bridges with the MC only to have it revealed later on that MC is the real grandson. oh please please update soon i want to see a moment like that so bad
except i feel like author is setting up a sympathetic back story to justify her actions and solidify her as a love interest if ever she reluctantly helps MC so... meh.
"i guess not" (picks up a rock)
"he's more special than that" (drops the rock)
his sweet face peeking from sejun's leg...omg... please... i want a kueng plushie so bad
i love how they're good friends first and foremost who take turns scamming each other and have a little competition going on everytime. way before any mutual feelings were explicitly hinted, we saw how they built up respect for each other and are will to learn from the other person.
their relationship never derails the main action plot, there's no sleazy fanservice, and whenever it's shown, it's actually adorable instead of distracting.
the shape, the heft, the protrusion, the sparkle... man, every josei smut better level up like this i now want lovingly drawn nips on my MLs stat
but for his technique in kidnapping. cringefail yandere moment but for real tho i was expecting the comments section to be littered with annoying virtue signaling again, like from the type who would pick up something with obsessive ex-husband in the title and then get mad there's an ex-husband being obsessive in the story.
i'm glad they kinda whittled down that crowd and we've got more hilarious comments from people who actually read and has fun with this genre
the duality of her acting reviews, how she'll react to the MC, how she'll improve, if she's someone we'll dislike or love... it makes you actually want to read further. compared to the bland-ass cutesy mary sue archetype who only exists to be bested by the MC and fawn over him. like girl... establish your own life, stop existing for and setting your goals over one guy. i need a longer time-skip for this girl where she sets off somewhere to grow tf up and stop equating her acting career to her romantic life.
there's gotta be novel spoilers somewhere but i like speculating. is it just MCs sheer will of controlling the gates catastrophe that the main game scenario of the players encountering a ravaged kingdom couldn't be realized? what's happening in 5 days, is it the main event? i thought he had a different deadline for that ages ago?
anw it's just super interesting to think what the irl players will think once they encounter this absolutely OP NPC that seems intertwined with so much of the game's lore, and on the flip side how will MC handle encountering what he was once part of? and how will he handle the aholes who killed him because of the game lol
praying sobbing wishing that next chapter is tentative adorable courtship and him showing garam how proud he is to like & go out with him ya boi has had enough heartbreaking homophobia, pls!
why yes, yes i would like some incredibly codependent and fucked up dynamics in my fiction. give us tragic backstories and means not justifying the ends, give us groveling at her feet, give us two tortured souls trying and failing to reconcile the past.
and dear god no, no i do not want the capitalist driven virtue signaling caveat of 'oooh but then she finds someone else like Mr McHealthy Relationships and Forgor Everything and Is Now Girlbossing right???'
