Exactly it’s like way to common. Not to nitpick authors but you need to give me pre backstory in the form of the current plot and have some more space between smut and backstory especially if you’re gonna show children. Unchanged man (ik it’s black flag) but did the same thing where one season ended off on some very graphic and gross rape and the next season is kid backstory.

It’s always so strange when the author draws the most nastiest lustful and angsty smut, and then the next chapter over cuts to them being innocent children. Same thing with Unchanged Man, it’s just so weird and shows poor writing.
