With the way Aaron is currently acting, I dont blame Yujin for running away and keeping his distance Men who yearn are hot, but Aaron is just giving toxic stalker ex that feels entitled to another person's affection, snap out of it babes!!! Yujin still loves you, so don't be a weirdo about this and talk things out! I'm looking forward to seeing their reunion, I'm hoping it's not a complete train wreck
Yujin did not run away from Aaron because Aaron is a slighty psychopath. Infact he likes his psychopathic tendencies. Initially Yujin is wary of Aaron and they are mostly in it for hookup in exchange for music but somewhere along the way, Aaron is starting to realize his feelings for Yujin and him being raised in a cold household, Yujin felt like a space where he can express his tendencies and Yujin feeling lost found Aaron tolerable and later on, starts to like him. To him Aaron feels like a burning sun which will guide him from his guilt, his pain from the childhood where his father blamed him and beat him up for an accident which is not Yujin's fault. Aaron brought a type of warmth Yujin craves and as for sex, well Yujin is pretty into intense stuff Aaron is engaging so the power dynamic to me seems Dom/Sub where Yujin is willingly letting Aaron overpower him
The reason Yujin ran away is because of the guilt and fear that his father would harm Aaron and would make Yujin as his pawn. After the Christmas tree incident, Yujin's mom lost her cognitive function and mistook Aaron as her son and she ran out into traffic and got run over which affected Yujin's dad so such (he is devoted to her) that he decided to abandon Yujin and kill Aaron and he did it almost and so it starts to weigh down on Yujin's conscience. After that car accident, Yujin was planning to leave to ensure Aaron doesnt get hurt, but for a while things went smoothly and Yujin reconsiders staying with Aaron but after that news report, Yujin went into mental breakdown thinking that it would harm Aaron and is blaming himself for Aaron getting hurt by his dad. Aaron knows this but he does not blame Yujin for it and begs him to stay by his side. But the guilt and pain ate away at Yujin and so he runs away
I dont think it's going to be complete bed of roses but also not complete pain. Yujin is still in love with Aaron and so is Aaron in love with Yujin. I think what's gonna happen is Aaron might mistake the situation and will knock out the guys and then ensues a fight and them forceful session before Yujin conks out due to his fever and then Yujin gets locked up in the house. Yujin may fight with Aaron to let him go so that Aaron wont get hurt and both fight and talk things through and then Aaron would deal with the father situation as well as media leaks. It's going to be complete misunderstanding turned angst and possible confinement trope
Babes I never said Aaron's current actions are why Yujin ran away, I said I dont blame him for running away and keeping his distance because I, as a reader, see Aaron as more of a problem to Yujin's life than a solution at the moment, and this current inability to seek out Yujin without becoming a toxic yandere is going to cause even more chaos I am completely aware of why Yujin ran away, this story has a very formulaic plot that is easy to follow because it often falls into a lot of the same tropes we see in other BLs, which is why the entire situation with Aaron is both funny and a bit corny to me. It's all in good fun to me as a reader tbh, but thanks for your comment!
ahh I mistook your comment as "Yujin ran away from Aaron cuz he is a red flag" which he is lol. His yandare tendencies comes from the fact that he grew in a cold household where his grandfather showed him no affection and he has poor emotional grasp. Perhaps he thinks Yujin has to give himself to him and Aaron would take care of everything
I think it would make the characters to face each other properly and address their issues but I dont think it's going to be straight path. It's defenitely going to include some sort of fight but if we were to give some benefit of the doubt, Aaron would be understanding and his anger would slightly quell and he may try to engage first. Or we could lean more into toxic yandare trait and let Aaron take a route where he'll taunt Yujin about his cowardice and running away and bring up the contract thing and mention penalties and would tie down, possible confinement and Yujin tries to fight it and then Aaron would be asking Yujin forgiveness for his actions
Getting blue-balled like a bitch with these shorter chapters but I'm thoroughly enjoying it lol. Looking forward to the next chapter!
I dont like the death flags that are waving right now... it feels like some Bonnie & Clyde or Thelma & Louis stuff is going on... pleaaaase let me be wrong But my goodness things really are starting to ramp up! The pacing was a tad bit slow (understandably so) during Jake's offical depature from the operation, but now we're literally rushing full speed ahead in facing the deep-seeded corruption of the CIA and its connections to the city's most (in)famous figures. I genuinely dont know what to expect next, but I do hope our main characters can find their way out, especially Shin. I would hate to see Glen's sacrifice go in vain... Really looking forward to the next chapter!
I'm still interested in seeing how the side couple is doing but I've been enjoying these chapters so much. There's just something about an omegaverse couple living the domestic life with their adorable baby that I find so enjoyable even if it is mundane. Its so nice to see them living a happier and healed life after all the mess they went to before and during their time in prison
So real
The stakes are definitely getting bigger and I absolutely love the direction this story is going in. The problem has become much bigger than Shin and Jay can truly handle on their own, and to be quite honest, I don't know if these guys will be able to win or even make it out alive. Scaling out from complex gang warfare to systematic political corruption tied to federal authority? This shit is so good. I'm really curious to see how this plot unfolds and what more we'll be able to learn about Jay.
Feel the exact same way! The story is so thrilling. I really hope the story keeps being this good. It makes me excited to see what will happen and the ending of it all will be. The anticipation is killing. ┗( T﹏T )┛
Been wondering when the new season was coming out. So glad to see them and their chaos once more lol
This series the the epitome of a fall from grace, oof! This ending was such a nothingburger too, but at least Jo looks beautiful as always!
Now that the series is officially over, can we admit that the ending was dogshit and rushed? Doyak herself said s3 was supposed to be the longest, but it ended up the shortest. She did a 2 year timeskip instead of closing out all the story plots that dealt with Big Teddy, Jamie, TJ saying he owes Jo his life, figuring out who sent Ian's old subordinate to kill him, why TJ was arrested and what he was arrested for, the fallout of the wedding massacre, etc. All of that build up for.... a two year timeskip? Atp we gotta admit that the only reason tj is endgame is because doyak got tired of this story :/ he was never redeemed, he never said sorry... he never even said "I love you" to Ian... like, hello??? Jo, he'll be fine because he is a good person who has a great support system and will find love again, but the real loser here is Ian.... poor Ian.
They assassinated his character. All that growth and development took a nosedive when Ian somehow healed 20 years of trauma in 2, all while working his ass off to buy a house for him and TJ? What was the point of his being in chicago for Toby just to ditch her and go back to NY to settle with TJ? Even tj stans have to admit how dumb this all is. And if anything, tj fans should be even more pissed because tj never even redeemed himself and your endgame ended up becoming reheated joian nachos. Even the art looked rushed in the last two chapters. Oh brother, this series had so much potential, then it ended out to be an utter mess, even the locals are making fun of how bad it is.... I dont know if doyak just got burnt out, or if the tj stans got to her and made her undermine her own writing, but oof. Even though Im a jo and ian fan, this ending was objectively bad and tj fans should be just as pissed, but theyre probably not because they never really cared for anyone else beside tj either way. Doyak, please never pick a pen up again lol
Couldn’t have said it better. Ian’s story is truly tragic I just feel sorry for him.
Absolutely. There was so much missing here, it left me with more questions than I wanted. I couldn't be bothered with the whole who would win out argument. I didn't care, but I wanted a rounded story and those last chapters just didn't cut it for me.
totally agree :/
So as I expected, Ian does end up back with his abuser what a typical way to end a love triangle BL... wish I could say I expected better, but I kind of saw this coming and was hoping doyak was a better writer than that. Oh well, onto the next story!
Pls don’t insult the author like that, it takes a lot of time to write a book, an if u don’t like it then yes more on with ur opinion but don’t trash the author name in ur opinion pls
Move*
real im truly so disappointed
How is that an insult lol
same
Oh I'm not trying to bash her as a writer! I'm just calling it like I see it. Doyak's writing in season 3 has objectively been poor compared to the writing and pacing in seasons 1 and 2. The stakes feel extremely imbalanced as Ian and Jo actually felt like they had something to lose, whereas TJ had everything to gain. TJ, as a main character, hasn't faced any real consequence, and those two years in prison doesn't even begin to make up for the years of objective domestic abuse (manipulating Ian and hurting him emotionally, financially, keeping him stuck) Ian had to endure under TJ. It's very formulaic since so many other stories also make the abusive old flame the endgame while leaving the objectively better second choice out in the rain (same thing happened with Cain in yours to claim). I'm just acknowledging that this ending is very rushed, contrived, and typical of a cliche bl instead of one that actually sticks to the narrative crescendo of a story to give it real depth and meaning. Also, it seems in really poor taste for the ending to be the abuser winning, yet again lol. Happy that the tjian fans get to celebrate this moment, I just see it as yet another instance where an abusive partner gets rewarded for being abusive ╮(￣▽￣)╭
LMAO imagine deleting my reply cuz u can’t own up to it is crazy
Don’t trash the author name
Learn being able to have ur own opinion without trashing someone name
Or just learn how to write ur own and see how ppl like relpy to ur own and then you’ll know how to chose ur wording appropriately
Oh my God, you should read Diamond dust or yeong llwoo and i - those have peak writing
I agree tho- its the same ole ole
i agree, the writing hs gotten so bad at the recent chapters no character development in tj's part, he hs been honest with himself ONCE after those 20 years and he gets rewarded, its truly insane to me.. also to add on how ian says he wasnt going to go back to the past, but then te next chapter he goes back to tj like make it make sense hello
I don’t think it’s possible for someone to delete a reply on here btwa
.....is it even possible to delete someone else's reply or are you just lying for attention? Lmaooo
You're getting defensive over a work you have no involvement nor stake in. This world is full of people with opinions and rights to those opinions. If you feel so deeply affected by what I say to the point where you feel the need to comment on it instead of scrolling, then that is a personal problem my dear and I hope you get that sort out quickly<3
I don’t think so cause if that was the case, there would’ve been so many replies that I would’ve deleted with the quickness but the only way you can stop them from replying is if you block them
I haven't started diamond dust yet but its om my list! I've been rereading shutline to remember what a good gang plot is actually supposed to look like (lmao) but there are plenty of better manhwa out there. My faves backlight and master-peace are currently on season break, but guarantee that im counting down the days of their return. Also waiting for shutline to come back too but its been on hiatus for forever so I just gotta settle for the reread
I haven't even blocked them either lol. I think they posted something then noticed a typo on it and deleted it themselves, then tried to play it off like I was the one who deleted it... you can tell when kids come on the internet way out their depth because they pull excuses out their ass and think other people are dumb enough to fall for it bless their heart tho
Understandable shutline and master peace is a good read!! I can’t wait for them to come back too. have you read flashlight?? oh my God backlight ( so many -lights ) but not yeah definitely tune in for diamond dust its a good read
LMFAOOO oh
Nah thats embarrassing asf on their part
Yeah im also reading flashlight and waiting for that to come back too lol, but diamond dust is def next up on my reading list!
I love breather eps like this. There's still the obvious looming threat of Ross and the corrupt doings of the CIA taskforce that will eventually come to head, but its so nice seeing Jake and Shin live a somewhat normal day given those circumstances and be domestic with each other; chatting it up with a random older lady at a store is probably the most normal thing Jake has done in a long time lol. Seeing these two together is so magnetic, the chemistry is palpable and those two are so intuned with each other. Let's hope these two survive the impending storm
