The artstyle is good and the bottom is not a broke incompetent that looks like a teenager but nothing is truly perfect as all that is wasted on this lame ass raising your husband trope and making the older one the bottom instead of the top doesn’t make it any less repugnant. I was really looking forward to reading something interesting ( ̄へ ̄)
I’m really enjoying this so far and I’m still a little miffed by the age gap but the artstyle is gorgeous and it looks like the plot would be good too but I don't like how quickly get got to the sex like they just reunited and the last time he saw him he was a kid and shortly after their first meeting they’re getting freaky, kinda made me uncomfortable
Fr tho it’s like they need to start having sex asap or the story will fall apart and I personally find that to be lazy, I was really hoping they’ll build their chemistry as equal adults without sex taking up all the space especially with how the top was a munchkin the last time they saw eachother. It’s almost like sex needs to be an integral part of their plot and it’s honestly ruining stories and don’t get me wrong I don’t want it to be shonen ai and have zero sex scenes but they need to find a balance
I went into this blind and I personally don't mind the cheating trope cuz its literally a very realistic problem but finding out the omega was the beta's dad was crazy. I really wish the alpha and omega had suffered more and faced the consequences of their actions cuz there was literally no accountability on the alpha's path and he got to eat his cake and had it. The omega deserved to have been caught and fired for abuse of his power dynamic over a student, it was so annoying with him working so hard to prove his worth in an alpha dominated field and neglecting his kid that he had as a teenager only to throw it all away for sex with an alpha student and neither of them were held accountable. Writing the beta as a cheater too when its clear he cheated after he noticed the alpha was pulling away doesn't make the alpha any less of a shitty character. I'm lowkey kinda curious about the beta's dad and why his parent's were not together since based on their ages they should have been highschool sweethearts and teenage parents. All in all I didn't hate the story, the plot is unique and the writing is very good and the progression was decent. I liked the unpredictable twists compared to the boring straight forward storyline most BL have. I get why this story gets hate but it isn't worst that the likes of jinx and the plethora of rapey stories everyone eats up, so people need to relax, I'll take a cheating trope over any of this sickening rape apologist stories where characters fall in love with their rapist.
I really can’t stand how everyone is calling Mokwa dense, he isn’t at all I think he just doesn’t trust or believe Nakwon and this is justified based on Nakwon’s previous actions and he’s still very coercive and manipulative towards Mokwa. We can see nakwons thoughts so we know what’s going on but to me, Mokwa’s reaction towards Nakwon is the most realistic reaction to your one time tormentor turning into your biggest fan and claiming they love you over night. I blame bl authors cuz they gloss over rape and abuse and skip to them falling in love so much that when someone decides to question it and not instantly fall into the arms of their one time rapist they’re seen as dense for having very valid trust issues. I can’t stand it (╯°Д °)╯╧╧








I have been obsessed with this bl for years and it never gets old, I’m so glad we’re finally getting an au. For all those wondering if they should read it or not—please do it’s so worth the read but if you’re looking for those cliche bl tropes you see in most of your favs or the typical top and bottom kinda vibe you wouldn’t find that here sorry
