Sexual grooming is a calculated, gradual process in which an individual builds trust, an emotional connection, and rapport with a vulnerable person—most commonly a child or teenager—to lower their defenses, establish power and control, and prepare them for sexual abuse or exploitation
I dont think so. Its prolly cz they've been together for long enough that ml is used to calling mc that. And mc is cute and DOES act like kid most of the time lmaoooo ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

Am I the Only one that feels like it looks like ml is grooming mc? I mean i understand mc likes ml and wants him but this all baby talking by ml and the words he's using looks sus and pedo and weird and I just hate this i don't mind age gap but don't make it look like he's having sex w a kid tf
