Couldn't agree more, I didn't like it for the exact same reasons and dropped it :P Even though I was hyped to read it at first...
god ik ur gonna LOVEEEEEE Flashlight then. we've got a buff bratty black haired bottom (whos a top turned bottom by ML btw), super slutty as hell btw and for the love of the game x golden boy top who has witty comebacks and can tame his very lovable cute adorable amazing hot handsome pretty bottom. both of them are fucking daddies. please go read it. ik ur gonna loveeee it
Omg dude I’ve gotten reccomended this exact same BL for the exact same reason! Lolol I’m letting it marinate but it def sounds interesting.
Yeah the art really is gorgeous and the top is legit chefs kiss (should’ve been the bottom in another BL ;-;) but alas. With how much it’s touted as good too I really expected more I suppose that was also the issue.
I think I overhyped myself with this story from hearing bout it too much and seeing the art.
It’s not bad, but it’s just not FOR ME. Again personally. Honestly it already had things against it (PERSONALLY) - promiscuous uke. NOW HEAR ME OUT. It’s for a reason.
Now I’m not trying to slut shame and I’m NOT. I love when they’re sluts BUT FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME. They always always give em some stupid ass fuckinf reason -
I present to yall the “tragic bottom backstory TM”
1. Their ex was a dick
2. Their friend was straight and they were in love
3. Some prior SA
4. Parental issues
they always gotta have some shit that made em like that and it’s tiring. Like be the town bicycle for the love of it not becuz u feel unlovable ONCE Jesus Christ. (Clearly reason 3 has more nuance)
And guess what this one is?
The stupidest one imo - BUT AGAIN OPINION
And I’m sorry guys, but the top is sincerely a good person which makes this 10x worse FOR MEE.
That fight in Paris was the perfect example of why I hate it too - cuz wdym u got MAD at HIM when u were WITH A GUY U HOOKED UP WITH AND U GOT MAD HE WAS TALKING TO Y O U R EX AND WASN’T JEALOUS ENOUGH? He told u HE TOLD YOU he was insecure about not being as experienced and yeah that fell to deaf ears too. Cuz what happened? They talk minimally bout it and then fuck.
Like it has the foundation to be a good story for me, but it’s just a lot of smut with the uke being dismantled and made docile by the seme and those stories just aren’t fun for me.
