HEAVY on the last sentence. this is why it's so weird having him lumped with Caesar, Ilay, Zhenya all of a sudden
i don't think aaron did anything to be an orange flag at all. he didn't talk nice but yujin is a personality that would run away in the slightest affection at that point of relationship. he tried to sneak his way closer without startling him. he did it by talking nonchalant and rude showing acts of service. they just completely rewritten him with this. idc how he was exposed to violence in his childhood. we saw that he knew how to be affectionate and logical and he was devastated after yujin left him. chaining him and raping his battered body? he was way too aware of yujin's personality to do this. he read him pretty well but chose to trust him anyway. he let himself down but now he's blaming it on yujin for pushing him. it's being rewritten not being orange.
I'm just so disappointed.
It could have been worse, yeah, but it was a good manhwa I enjoyed reading, and now, I feel like I've seen it all before. (It's kinda terrible to say, because it means that too many plots are sub/noncon.)
And honestly, well yeah, Aaron was always an orange flag, but doing that? To chain up his partner? It doesn't make any sense to me. The guy may be morally gray, but he's not a mafioso. HE'S JUST AN ACTOR
