No way it’s “grooming,” more like “crazy obsession.” Kiel started showing affection towards Asha way back when they were both kids. Plus, they weren’t even always together judging from the phasing and their status differences, so grooming seems unlikely.
Grooming involves a prolonged/long-period process of influencing someone into a certain norm in day-to-day habit, but Asha has literally been an airhead since he was young…He’s the “go with the flow” type, and FFS, don’t forget he was an established Knight once (though got demoted for childish reason)~ how is he groomed all the time? He had to train and stuffs with many people for a long periods since he was a teen too.
If he were actually groomed from a young age, wouldn’t his upbringing have been weird or unsettling? Just because Kiel is 6 years older doesn’t mean him liking Asha when he was 10 automatically makes it PD or grooming. He’s simply been doting on Asha way too much (crazily) and unwilling to give up, like a spoiled kid throwing a tantrum over a toy they were told they couldn’t have XD And apparently, that never changed even as he got older.
Asha is also an adult here, yet he’s still completely nonchalant about it lol~
So let’s just enjoy the story as it is, okay? It’s fiction, you’re wont get morally affected just by reading it anyway, so why the fuss lol. Unless you will…(bombastic side eye)
