But for the first time having penetrative sex, you choose the passenger seat? Sure they got handsy before then but really? They were both into it so I guess to each their own, but that seems like an odd place to have sex for the first time and would probably add to the discomfort. This is literally my only complaint about the story, it’s great otherwise! I’m just baffled is all.
For the longest time I’ve said I hate amnesia arcs but I don’t know I’m starting to think maybe I just dislike them? Maybe there are some stories with that trope that don’t make me want to bash my head into a wall and I just haven’t found them yet. So hit me with your best/favorite amnesia arcs. Even if it’s something I’ve read before I might reread just to see if I still hate it.
Side note: the only amnesia arc that comes to mind that I actually LIKE is kiss me liar because of how much Keith deservedly suffers. So if you know of any others like that one I’ll be forever in your debt.

cried. horribly.
Is the one losing memory mc or ml
It’s the ML
Thankss
I don’t think of this as an amnesia arc (at least not the trope I’m thinking of) since they’re not together when the memory loss happens. That said, everyone everywhere should read reunion. One of these days I’m going to make my husband read it I swear to god.
I guess this is my sign to reread it though lol

i tend to prefer amnesia when theyre sides and this one was rly good
I just reread this last week and it’s the one that first got me thinking that maybe I don’t actually hate amnesia arcs haha. I actually didn’t like the story in general too much the first time I read it, I liked it more this time.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/red_string_quests/ This was so so sweet!
Oh I hate amnesia when it's like "I like this new you" or get amnesia and falls for someone who's not your (actually nice, 2nd male lead) partner. But I love memory loss for established partners or mutual-pining friends!!!
(A forgets he's married to B and is back to when they love C; or A & B were secretly together and now that A lot his memories B is acting like they are just friends; or A & B had broken up but A lost his memories and thinks they are still tgt, uuuugh. Also enemies to lovers not understanding how he could do that to himself, why would you marry the man who killed your brother/tried to kill you/betrayed your country. Also also! When they were not together but A loses his memories and he wakes up so sure he and B were together because of how they act or because he can remember loving B, etc)
I want to read it SO BAD but I hate starting something that’s unfinished because I either a) forget everything I read by the time the next chapter comes around, or b) sit alone with my feelings frustrated because my impatient ass needs to know what’s coming next. So I haven’t picked it up yet but it is very much on my radar!
Yes I think this is what my issue is! I’m interested in all of the things you mentioned, if you have specific recs I would love to hear them!
So after migrating here a few months back, I was pretty lost on interpreting the scores. It felt like something would be a 9.1 and then I go in the comments and everyone is agreeing that it’s hot garbage. On [insert previous site I used here] I had a pretty strict “don’t bother with anything below an 8” rule, occasionally reading things scored lower if the plot or art or something caught my attention. But I found that the stuff I would read using that rule would almost always be high quality. So what was a girl to do when faced with an entirely different rating system and culture?
Basically, I kept my rule in place. “Nothing below an 8” was upheld and it was business as usual. But it turns out, a lot of things that would’ve never made the cut on [site redacted] are scored above an 8 here. And I’ve actually found a ton of things I really like that I probably never would’ve read otherwise, even a couple new favorites!
So if you’re like me and sometimes think to yourself “people really will just give anything 5/5 on here,” take a step back and consider that this fact could lead you to plenty of great stories that would’ve never come up on your radar otherwise. Flawed as it may be, one girl’s trash is another girl’s treasure and vice versa, so I hope you can come to love the rating system here as I have.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
tbh I noticed that only a couple of 5 star rating would give it a higher rating than normal so I just stopped trusting them and instead would just read some of the comments while keeping a balance of seeing how it truly is while also not spoiling the whole thing for me so I can enjoy the surprise :/
Usually in BL BDSM we either get light play like cuffs or maybe some toys, or we get hardcore stuff like ropes or clamps or puppy play. What we usually don’t see are the sadists that are more concerned with teasing their partners into oblivion. Embarrassment/humiliation is usually treated as an afterthought or a given in BL BDSM scenes but it’s a really powerful method of sadism all on its own imo. Nothing Jaewon did was painful or designed to hurt Eunho (except the spanking, but only barely). All of it was meant to embarrass Eunho and expose him to new sensations and overwhelm him that way. I loveddddd it. The ice cubes? Based. The shirt-only rule in the studio? Based (and some of Jaewon’s dom tendencies coming out too, but I digress). And then to carry Eunho around everywhere? Based x1000. I need to see more Jaewons out there tbh.
