Not all the morons in a moral outrage over the healthiest bdsm comic out there lmfao Doms are HUMANS who have feelings and he didn't do anything differently, he just happened to be upset about something while topping. He didn't push boundaries, he didn't hurt him, he even stopped and apologized, thinking "he must have been really anxious (about the relationship thing)". Then he apologized when he realized. Calling him abusive is literally hilarious. Y'all need to remember we're reading FICTION and not a bdsm handbook fr. It's okay for fiction to not be 100% accurate because you shouldn't be reading it to learn about real dynamics, period. Plus fiction explores areas like TPE which are tricky irl. A relationship w a power dynamic is INTENSE and you feel many things you've never felt before. Fiction is for enjoyment. If you don't enjoy a 100% accurate depiction of bdsm okay, but crying about it being so wrong and abusive even when it's not is just sad.
Let's be real, his whole relationship dynamic with Amon is pretty unhealthy and even abusive. And it doesn't make it one single lick better that Amon "doesn't understand feelings" (trying hard to keep this spoiler free). Instead of ceasing his sacrifices he knowingly causes his "love" harm by subjecting him to literally mental and emotional torture. Amon has no regard for the lives of others, and he's genuinely terrifying to Nain. So of course Nain would want to cling to the terrifying creature who seems to cherish him. Nain doesn't want the riches and the worship, he wants to live and not become "nothing" to Amon like everyone and everything else is. That's not true love. That's desperation to live, and fear. I wonder if he ever really loved Amon or it's all fear and desperation to survive.
Ps I didn't mention Gwen because my debate is about Amon and Nain. I actually prefer Gwen atm purely out of him just trying to make Nain happy ╥﹏╥
Yes, I know Roger is end game if anyone is. However, let's not pretend he's any different than the other two: Artificially in love. Her love with Roger is so tiring and forced. I was over him when he was blindly out for revenge to hurt her over believing her obvious lies. He became just as bad as the other MLs (though no one is as bad as the prince) when he tried to force marriage while thinking she killed his mom. I can't get past that, acting like that's normal love and not due to the charm to want to MARRY your mother's murderer? Even if he came to *genuinely* love her after learning the truth it doesn't change that it started the same. He's not special, she just chose him. And that's fine, even if it wouldn't be my choice. But let's not pretend he's innocent lol
Ur low-key right... Wth.
I mean you can’t blame him for not “believing her” she told the lie after all. Well everyone isn’t innocent so that’s kinda how it is. I’m still want Roger to be the ML.
Good for you? ╮(￣▽￣)╭
ATP I don't even care anymore, like I'm not emotionally invested OR bothered by what one fictional dumbass asshole is doing to the other fictional dumbass coward. I just want them to fuck and it be over now. It's clear we won't get clear communication and emotionally satisfying connection between them.
This story is DRAGGING its ass. I also find it funny that people cheer for Roger when he also tried to marry her by force with the intention of making her life miserable because of the killing his mother misunderstanding. He also tried to destroy the only item capable of removing her charm right in front of her to hurt her. Only circumstance kept him from being 100% as bad as the other two lol idk, I wish she had a better option, but yay Roger ig. I'm the odd man out who actually likes the pathetic dark haired duke. My man got to tap that once and has been a side simp the rest the time.
bro u actually have a point now im rethinking my man
bro u actually have a point now im rethinking my stand
Oop- now that I think about it
Yeah, ngl I thought the duke was going to be endgame. I think out of the three, he's redeemable. His only crime was leading the prince to Crocechetta and Roger. (I think??)
(I also don't think Roger tried to tell her and ofc the prince knows what actually happened which caused the engagement in the first place.)
Everyone but the prince is redeemable I think. I just find it amusing that even Roger so easily believed she was evil and tried to hurt her and force marriage on her. But then we have the Duke who's just repeatedly trying to make her happy no matter who she chooses, knowing it won't be him that's chosen. I find that more appealing then her nonsense forced drama w Roger lol
THANK YOU!!
Seriously I don't get why people are so "Team Roger" and sooo much angry after the Duke. Roger had his share of "toxic thought and action" meanwhile the Duke is kind of a victim in here!
At first he didn't want anything to do with her, she insisted
She use his feeling to spend a night with him, she didn't care it would hurt him
She manipulated him multiple time, took his money for gamble and all
Yes the guy is guilty of believing he had a chance but she did make him believe he had to use him!
In the end he think she is in danger when she's with Roger get tangle with the Prince in the process because at first he didn't want the Prince to find her either
I don't blame her she is on "survival mode" in that story but please stop putting the Duke in the same category with the Prince omg! He is totaly a victim lol
I have similar opinion but a little difference. Whatever misunderstanding nonsense Roger has, Etienne is at its root. And after misunderstanding solved, both Roger and Duke always wished for Crocetta’s happiness. So while Roger and Duke have their toxic moments and hurts Crocetta in their ignorance, they’re much better options than Etienne. After cabin arc, I cheer for Roger slightly more. After all toxic moments that make Crocetta has empty hollow eyes and stopped smiling, in cabin Roger somehow made her laugh again. Real laugh. So whoever ends up with her or even if she ends up with no one, I hope she can live in peace and can smile sincerely.
Don't get me wrong, I actually want her to be with whoever she wants, not just who I personally would choose! She chose to lie to Roger for 'his' sake and that messed A LOT up. She lied to protect him from Etienne mostly, but as you said, she's also in survival mode and she does get a pass for that. (Also I kinda ship the Duke w that poor blondie guy who was also from the real world land seems to crush on him lol)
Exactly, the Duke got a really bad deal and was used by her when she was desperate for any way to escape a miserable ending. It's like a Greek tragedy where they receive an oracle of death, but the catch is that trying to avoid that death is what causes it.
I totaly agree with your point of view I also wish for her to be happy. Personaly I am not angry if she end up with Roger, she have fall for him at first and it would be "the good ending" with the story.
I just don't get why that amount of hate toward the Duke by everyone I'm happy if I'm not alone to see that he is not at the same level as the Prince everytime I'm in the comment section I'm like but leave that poor man alone XD if anything I pity him XD
OMG now I got a new ship for that story thanks to you (≧∀≦)
I like your greek tragedy analogy this is soooooo true!
I'd like her to end up with either roger or the duke, the emperor can rot on the throne for all i care lol
I trusted the process and it didn't let me down. I KNEW he wasn't as innocent as he seemed!! Who's going to actually break first? Because he has both women where he wants them somehow, while seeming so pitiful! Good thing he's a true masochist lol
I love them so much my heart hurts. Two broken boys just trying to feel something together ╥﹏╥
Holy fuck this is so hot. Kinky sex more than structured bdsm, but a caring top who's already smitten and consenting bottom who's loving it?! GOLD.
I honestly don't gaf how "hot" Amon is. He knows Nain dispairs to the point of depression and stresses over killing, but instead of anything else he FORCES him to witness it and even participate in it to "teach" him. Amon is just a selfish POS. I don't like Amon, and he has no excuse for the way he behaves. The spoilers only made it worse for me honestly.
PREACHH FOR THE PEOPLE AT THE BACK
What if the twist is that Romi and MC are actually siblings idk. I've been staring at the cover too long and their eyes look exactly alike lol
