Rereading this reminded how much the translator’s comments about A Sign of Affection at the end of chapter 8 pissed me off
Me before chapter: Is this gonna hurt me
Me after chapter: Yeah, that hurt
Ideum falling first, but Jaeyi falling harder. Boy is probably gonna deny it before giving in, I just know it
I’m on a reread because I missed this story. I remember seeing comments about how tragic the novel was as this was in the beginning of its updates, I stayed to see if would be tragic, and then I still stayed to see if there would be redemption for Caesar at the end. I was then shot 57 times :,)
How about STOP FUCKING YELLING AT HER AND LET HER MAKE HER OWN DECISIONS. It’s always about her “being a noblewoman” and making assumptions about her because they didn’t see how her father abused her. They all think she was treated like royalty because of her sister, but the poor thing struggled SO MUCH and in turn it’s making things so much more difficult for her in her own damn marriage UGH
I’ve been waiting for her to crash out on her family, I need to see it so badly after the way they’ve treated her. Even badgering her in public after becoming the crown princess?? Nah, jail, all but the nephew
I commend the series for not dragging out misunderstandings for chapter upon chapter like other series, they actually TALK to each other after actually thinking it over. Yes, they struggle with it, but they’re TEENAGERS still learning and growing. Ifgaf what anybody says, I wish shoujo had this level of story telling when I was a high schooler, I needed it.
Honestly, best part, I love seeing the little guy all o_o while hanging around them, he’s so funny
He’s 23?? Damn, I hope she gets aged up before anything romantic happens, she’s still a baby
One thing I forgot was how annoyed I got at the OG translator’s notes about “over sensitive readers” and how sarcastic they were sometimes. It really took away from the story itself for me, and seeing multiple chapters headed with “Oh look another r@pe free chapter” really started pissing me off. The notes are hard to ignore sometimes since they got mixed with the MC’s thoughts sometimes, so I’m pretty sure I dropped it because of that, I just got tired of it
