I’m talking about every single time he slept with the guy. I’m not saying the priest isn’t bad, he obviously has power over him. I’m just saying it’s clear that the mc has free-will to a good extent seeing as he was able to hook up with dominic so many times and not care for the priest. Anyways that wasn’t even the main focus of my comment anyways. By definition, he did sleep with the priest even if you want to label it as manipulation. Eugene also chose to cut Dominic off for the priest.
I mean he asks for permission… do u not remember the library??? Literally asked him if they should keep going. The piano scene?? Literally only asked him to play piano and was not asking for sex. Sure he’s rough around the edges but if you wanna say the priest is gentle the door is over there ->>>>>
THE PRIEST KILLED HIS PARENTS????????? That is the definition of manipulation he took a CHILD A LITERAL 4 YEAR OLD in because he killed the priest THE PRIEST killed his parents. Yes of course he has free will but Eugene is still so young despite living so many years he was still coddled and kept away by his foster father who by the way HAS SEX WITH HIM??? Literally raised him supposed to be a parental figure. Eugene is literally so traumatized that he is confusing his survival and need for his “masters” blood to survive so his brain BECAUSE of trauma has convinced himself that he is in love with his abuser at the ripe age of 4 years old remember a grown man KILLED. 4 year olds parents and then seduces him when he is of age and literally sleeps with BASICALLy his son. I just cannot wrap my head around people glossing over the plentiful scenes where it literally shows Eugene going insane because he is confusing his own survival with love. Pleass read up on stockholm syndrome!!
It is fair because Eugene never communicated to Dom that they were an official item and Dom knows he sleeps with the priest because ding ding!! he’s literally the hot gossip about being sponsored. Also Dom doesnt know that Eugene is being manipulated I’m saying its fair because Dom doesnt even know so in his persoective Eugene is just playing him and unfortunately Eugene can’t make up his mind and CONTINUES to sleep with the priest. At some point knowing the person u like is still going back to their ex is still gonna piss you off and DOM doesnt know anything so yes it is fair!!!
Well looking at the raws it definitely doesn’t look like he is using Eugene for something. He’s also realizing it himself that he cares more about Eugene than he thought. He’s also discovering what’s going on with Eugene (something that was recent in the laziest chapters) and taking care of him. Last I checked some didn’t need Eugene for anything. There’s plenty of other vampires to hunt and he doesn’t even know what’s the deal between him and the master. I think dom wanted to just have fun and play along to see what Eugene was planning. Since it’s Eugene that had more of the benefits in their arrangement.
Atp, I don’t mind Eugene being alone cuz both the father and Dominic is just not it TT I’m sorry but he’s better off alone :(
