It feels so short unless the thing where I’m reading from cut out panels, but I liked it. I was just really hoping this chapter would be where they communicated or at least where Skylar said his trauma, but, nope..atp I have no idea when Skylar is gonna open up cause at this point it feels like he’s not even thinking about it, I really hope he does.
I know what you’re gonna say. “Yes he does!!” I know that he likes him, it’s obvious. But he doesn’t really like HIM. He likes Minwoo. Well, not like, especially after what Minwoo did to him. He’s just clinging onto the past. Skylar probably would’ve never even had feelings for Chan ill if it wasn’t for his trauma. What people fail to realize is how Skylar is projecting Minwoo onto Chan-ill, Skylar even said it himself. He’s trying to rewrite a chapter of his life, pretending Chan-ill is Minwoo, as if he can rewrite the past but change it. He’s trying to image Chan-ill is Minwoo because he can’t let go of his trauma and he’s nowhere near healed. He doesn’t like Chan-ill for Chan-ill, he likes him for what he’s imaging him to be.
This is unrelated, but am I the only one who wants Minwoo to show up if even a glimpse? I feel like Skylar and Minwoo’s story is just unfinished. I don’t like Minwoo, I hate him for obvious reasons,, but I really want him to get some sort of karma, the story can’t just end off with him living knowing he did that to Skylar without any consequences. At best I want his parents to know. I also really want to see how Minwoo looks like now.
And I really hope..Skylar talks to Cirrus about his trauma. I feel like it would clear up so much stuff between them. Like why he doesn’t want their relationship to be public, why he’s nervous. I feel like their relationship would grow if Skylar just opened up.
Guys I just realized we saw a glimpse of Minwoo in the future in chapter 54.4 Ooohh…but still, I feel like you can’t just leave it off like that, without ever knowing how Minwoo feels know — how they’d ever react to seeing eachother again, especially how’d Skylar react. How’d Cirrus himself seeing the person who caused Skylars trauma. (Even if he doesn’t know his trauma yet)
Sorry for the long response but I also want Skylar to talk about his trauma with Cirrus so bad, especially to calm Cirrus’ fear and jealousy of Chan-il. The problem is I don’t think Skylar considers what he went through as trauma (that one chap when he said “my secret isn’t bad, I just embarrassed myself at a sleepover) so I don’t know how he’d bring it up without distorting the story and pinning most of the blame on himself.
I do disagree about your thoughts on Minwoo though. Their lack of resolution was pretty realistic. Sometimes the worst people in your life just suddenly stop being there. Whether this is because they left or you cut them out, the only closure you get is the kind where you make peace with yourself.
So I think Skylar is slowly getting to a point where he can start to work toward that closure. Minwoo on the other hand seemed to be at a spot where that situation will always be a black pit in his heart- a fitting end for his presence in the series imo.
It’s fine!! You don’t have to apologize. And yeahh, you explained that really well, I understand that. I’m just really curious how Minwoo feels now, if he feels any guilt or he still doesn’t care and is the same as he was in middle school. Or how they’d react in general just seeing eachother in the future: it’s probably not gonna happen though considering Pakism said they weren’t going to bring him back unless she’s gaslighting us. And also how suspiciously alike Cirrus’s stepmom looks like Minwoo. But they said she was young so I don’t think she could be his mother especially with that personality, ironic but probably accidental how alike they look.
Just saw spoilers for the new episode and why are people trying to make Skylar this villain? It’s so obvious he has anger management issues. That’s why he hit Cirrus. Because of his uncontrolled anger. And he isn’t dating Cirrus to get with Chan ill it’s so obvious he said that out of impulse. People misread his character so hard it’s not even funny. But when Cirrus does something wrong suddenly it’s relatable and everyone defends him?? (Don’t get me wrong, I love Cirrus but that’s ridiculous. Nobody even bats an eye at the time he SA’d Skylar??)
The amount of people romanticizing this is disgusting to me, like didn’t he just take advantage of a drunk potato?? I seriously expected him to be a green flag, I was rooting for him, man! This sucks. The author is allergic to the color green. I hope potato finds someone else, I don’t want him to be the next Dan.
no fr like ugh
He frequents the same bar like joo, who also is infamous around like that... Doesn't look like a green flag from the start.
