I think i finally understand why this ending is so frustrating. The whole point was seeing the progression of Ian as a character. Jo, TJ, they all had a hand in shaping him as a person. TJ his past; Jo his future. I fully understand why Ian never picked Jo but in the end Jo’s character was meant to be a lesson for his growth but that part was cut out for a time skip, And that’s that missing feeling. In no way does it feel like Jo had any influence bc with how it was laid out it seems as if Ian just ran back to his past. No growth from TJ either that man was a fucking mess when it came to their relationship. Ofc it’s implied but I still hate TJ for the shit he put Ian through all those years. Why would u make an end game and not fully develop them. Idk I feel like if Ian chose himself and TJ spent a little more time working for Ian’s forgiveness it would feel so much better. But ofc this is just my opinion
Im crying yall i hope all my team Jo’s are doing some outside time bc i know we’re not ok. I really thought…. I have love triangles
It gives more parental or guardian affection. It would be odd if it turns out to be more romantic, especially after all that.
My theory is that “premonition” in the first chapter is like foreshadowing, that one celebrity who’s obsessed w mc is going to do some crazy shit and kidnap him. When he escapes, that’s the scene in the first chapter…. Lowkey I think that’s well in the realm of possibilities. Also the loan shark?!…. Maybe he’s involved idk but the twink seems more like the culprit. like he’s one straw away from loosing is last marble. Lmao watch me be so wrong
Wait y’all what do u mean flashback. DID I MISS SOMETHING OR
Try re-reading the first chapter.
I did and I still don't get it :)))
1st chapter shows him in the first pannels walking around barefoot and bruised...idk why? Is that "the present"? Like.. They don't work out in the end or something and all we've been reading so far is just a big flashback, a story telling of how everything went down since they met again and how everything led to that moment in the 1st chapter?
we are currently reading the lead up events to whatever happened at the very beginning of chapter 1, chapter 1 beginning is the present and all of the following chapters are the past
But yall were getting closer to the end of this damn miscommunication arc
