I need that man dead. I did not expect that at all. Explains a lot abt actually, Cirrus saying “you think I’m dirty” in that one chapter for example.
This story is so well written, seeing Cirrus and Skylar becoming each other’s solace is so nice :( but I need them happy now

    It was hinted what happened, but it wasn't just me who thought that Cirrus had got to escape before that piece of shit did something to him.
    I noticed the "you think I'm dirty" questions just after re-reading (it happened the first two times he kissed Skylar), and there was a similar reaction in the frog scene, where I thought Cirrus was just red-flag possessive, but not, he was triggered and it's clear when you already know what happened...
    It felt nice that Cirrus has finally told somebody else what happened to him, but he needs a lot of help, more than telling to his bf :(

    I really didn’t think he was actually sexually assaulted :/
    Also I read the next chapter on another website and Cirrus needs help, more than just Skylar, or the relationship might turn toxic
    Either way it’s really well written so I think no matter the direction the author takes it will be well developed.
    They will be happy !!!

    I read up until the last released chapter and indeed, a lot of help. Even if there's been comedy here and there from the very beginning, I trust the way PasKim tells their story. I hope there'll be a happy ending for them, but I'm expecting a long journey before that, portrayed with the same respect and slow-paced as it's been up until now<3

    The author is touching on sensitive topics but I think it’s done right, so yh I’m trusting them for the development!
    Completely agree with you

    Ok saw snippets of the last chapter (raw), and I’m wondering if they should break up or no :/
    Like it’s all fucked

    I know. Since you saw the last raw and I assume you also read ch 97, that was what I meant with Cirrus needing a lot of help. I mean, we already know he can actually be dangerous, for others and for himself because he's constantly on edge, asfixiating by the untold. And the problem is that Skylar can be there for him just to some extent. He has his own unresolved traumas that don't allow him to be everything Cirrus needs from him (it's not Skylar's duty to be that).
    So at the point the story currently is, none of them is what the other needs so they can't actually comfort one another, aka being together is more painful than anything else.
    Anyway. Cirrus's my baby so I'll keep waiting for his healing arc, even if in the end he doesn't end with Skylar. I mean I want him happy and forgiving and loving himself before he can actually be with somebody else :c
    Lol I'm sorry for my long replies!

    Don’t worry abt the length of the reply !!! Thank you for answering. I thought they could become each other’s solace, I like dynamics where two people are each other’s favorites, but in this case it’s like they brought each other peace but only for a moment (you said it, sky can be there for him but that’s not enough and it’s not what cirrus needs to become better)

    I don’t like saying they should break up cause “broken” people are allowed to love but since this is turning toxic and you can clearly see no trauma has been dealt with, they should take time :/

    Regardless, (as we said) I hope the author will develop this in a sensitive manner. I think a happy ending doesn’t necessarily mean Cirrus and Sky ending together

    Sorry for my English btw! I’m French

    You know, I think it would've been an interesting approach for a psychological plot if both characters kept feeding back how isolated they feel from the other kids their age by overly taking refuge in each other. But the thing is that their traumas are not compatible, since Cirrus needs to be the only thing in Skylar's life, and Skylar is terrified of the idea of others noticing something's /wrong/ with him, which leads him to be distant.

    So, no, they shouldn't break up because they're broken but because they hurt each other without noticing, or at least take time as you said, until they can afford start healing.
    I'm not sure if I mentioned it already, but not too long ago I read Paskim's Sheep Mask (definitely a horror story, not a bl as tagged), and knowing they can write really heavy themes is what makes me anxious about LitC, but I think they will bring a happy ending in this case, even if that means Cirrus and Skylar don't end together (although I hope so, with time)!

    English is not my main language either so don't worry (and I'm sorry if something I said was confusing haha)

    Ooh a horror story, maybe I’ll try it out!
    I completely agree with you, you articulated it in a much better way than I did !!
    I’m taking a break from this, waiting for more chapters to come out, also it’s very heavy

    Wait, I need to warn you that Sheep Mask is REALLY heavy, and I only finished it because I needed to close it on my mind. When I said horror I meant asphyxiating and despairing, not terror like ghost or such. JIC, because of what you said about LitC being heavy.
    I've said I'd wait in lots of stories so I won't lie myself anymore haha. I hope to read your opinion when you keep reading!

    thanks for the warning I’m curious now! and I usually like mangas/books etc. that deal with heavy subjects (if I like the writing), but I can’t only read that. For LitC it’s more that I don’t like cliffhangers, so since it’s heavy I’m taking a break
