Maybe it’s bc I’m in the habit of reading the chapter before every time a new chapter drops, but tbh I did not think he was being that dramatic.
Like king is psychologically unwell, thinks the guy he likes is about to ghost him, found out some crazy lady was stalking him and kinda drugging him (are pheromones considered drugs) and then that crazy lady literally shot a guy in front of him and then the guy he likes shows up to (presumably) dump him. This isn’t even considering that in the last week he was fully kidnapped. I would pick up the gun after all that too.
He really said ”pick me. choose me. love ME.”
It reminds me with the rabbit one like... "Touch me... Touch me harder"
Ahh Ghost Stories!
