damn's activites

Not worth it, Yujin is a fucking doormat I do not care and will not listen to anyone else otherwise; You might think he's being "Oh wow, he's so strong going through this" but no, he's barely shown any fucking agency nor actual personality other than his qualms with money, daughter, the family and his past it's actually insane how bland a character gets when they just serve as a plot device mind you as a MAIN CHARACTER.

"Let me go" and bitch ass was wiggling his fucking shit around literally stand the fuck up. Writing pathetic bitches for the sake of it is sooooo tired; this is depression porn bro, there is literally no other explanation.

sister.. u didn't have to end him like that

crazy take but Muchan deserved better, out of all the cookie cutters he atleast had some edges to him that was interesting and having him be used as a way for MC to proudly realize his feelings for ML is low-key ass for me, the kid was obviously a fucking idiot and assaulting someone definitely got him on mc's hit list so I'm not surprised they're aggressive with one another

But... At the same time, he atleast had multitude and could have actually been a really good character study through the hands of another writer, cause he's hypocritical and he's also self ware that he's shitty and like I feel for that, because he is shitty and he is hypocritical and he doesn't make excuses for it infact he leans into it and acts like an ass by choice cause he knows deep in his heart... The author will never give him a break from his feelings LMAOOOO

At this economy idc if he's as much as a raging asshole like ML, if you offer me to stay at a barchelor's pad tax free and you're getting groceries paid easily I'm fucking in. I will be putting up with all these bs tremendously and more LMAOOOOO

dropping this on ch4, not because it's so ugh so toxic ugh so ugh ugh, I'm not prudish, I grew up with Killing Stalking in my back pocket, Its because I have never had such repulsion from the dialogue and scene choices.

Not because they're bad, hell I like a little spanking, I like a little crazy in my male leads but "you mad bro?" Or "little Chihuahua"??????? Why are we talking like a D-List Streamer or a redditor? I really don't mind stories like this but that was the quickest writing ick I ever had LMAOOOO like it has potential but I can't take the writing seriously when it's given with these dialogues and framing.

Art's not that bad though! this just wasn't in my cup of tea

Catherine low-key the MVP, the goat, I'm so sad she died and I wish Annette had more scenes with Olivia since she's technically her god daughter at this point.

Without Catherine's presence, Annette wouldn't have had the safe space to grow that allowed her to be pushed into her own path. They were my favorite part of the series and I'm so gutted they only had a few chapters together because it's so exceedingly rare (to me) in this genre for the plot to be pushed through by both female characters that isn't a plot device (e.g., side char is jealous of mc or stuff like that) it really gives both characters agency and chemistry as actual friends.

Actually istg Annette needs a circle of friend bad come here pookie I'll take care of you too

Recently I've been getting into reading a lot more contemporary fiction rather than YA (No, Colleen Hoover though.. I avoid her works) and the main difference is a focus on the MC herself for most of what I read like Her Hidden Genius by Marie Benedict or Lessons In Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus (which mind you is wrongly marketed and underrated)

I wanted to know if you guys know of manwhas or mangas, I don't mind if it's Isekai or the usual Slice of Life I just need the FL to have some sort of agency to the story, Not that she's badass and perfect but more so that her actions affects both her and the people around her instead of 'plot' convenience or atleast one where the FL doesn't just talk to the ML and the problem is fixed out of her accord cause like what was the point then. </3

Why is this on a shounen ai tag LMAOOOO y'all are setting people up so bad

Having liked a straight guy before and had a down low situationship from it with them, This is so fucking triggering omg.. LRMDKFM TT

I had to pull back a bit cause the dialogue is insane, "Stop wearing that, It makes you look trashy" was a constant and like Hamin it drove me crazy to no end cause it really does make you look for the crumbs of what those actions mean

So I get you sister pls run the fuck away from that man.

YESSS GO MAKE FRIENDS POOKIE WOOKIE COOKIEIM SOBBINGGG DO YOUR THING DO WHAT U COULDN'T DO BEFOREEEE MY BABYYYY MY SHAYLAAAAA ╥﹏╥

I am so fucking glad that the manwha changed OG Edith and Rhyse's fates even the Sinclairs cause in the novel, We don't get all that and I actually prefer this more than that cause tell me why the original had Rhyse just go fucking batshit crazy in the end and gets jailed.

There is SOOOO much respect done for Rhyse character here than what happened in the novel. She was never at fault for the actions of the author whose personality was as rotten as aged meat. The relationship between her and OG Edith, Her kindness towards The Sinclairs despite watching it all repeat again and again. FL really was a gift to them cause honestly I have nothing but empathy for all the three (Rhyse, OG Edith and FL) for going through all that just because they wanted to escape the constraint of a novel. (Which fun fact these aren't a thing in the novel!)

I appreciate it for what it is, Killian pissed me off and I was silently rooting for Byron but when I thought about it more Edith can have Killian with all her heart let me bag that glasses blondie

I'm actually ignoring anyone who thinks this has the pacing of a snail, The only reason that happens is because manwhas are released weekly and that's the distinction.

Does the plot have a pacing problem? HEEEELLL NO. The dialogue are long but we'll written and fits the period they're portraying, They're subtle and also clear in their intentions, God I fucking love this series for the trust it has on readers to actually consume the story properly.

Let's get one thing straight though, ML is a fucking asshole, what separates him from other assholes is the fact that he's a well written one. He's a hypocrite not in a sense that he's a pathetic man but because it's simply too far on his sphere and plans to consider that Luce is someone to keep.

And god that tingles me because most of the time we get an ML who is an ass simply because of an angsty story but here we have an environment that forced him to grow into such a ruthless and cunning state that his distrust means he truly never trusts anyone but Luce (MC) and I get he's a big piece of shit and I'm not defending his actions but it's such a breath of fucking fresh air to have a character who is actually well written in his ambitions, decisions and characterization.

And don't get me started on Luce who is so easy to root for, is clearly not a Mary Sue or a stand-in for the reader, The world feels like it has agency and the people around them react and have their own thoughts and limits to the situation around them.

It's not mentioned but the servants trusts on Luce to settle the prince down in his tantrums, Their worry when the prince has Salina in the parlor is so evident that it makes them so alive even without prior information

I'm actually so fucking obsessed with this? I don't get the slow burn complaints either because nothing so far has been redundant and have been continuously building the venomous dynamic between the two leads and the effect it has to the people around them and their plans for the throne.

Holy shit this had me giddy af.

author-nim, ily pls get a raise w ur producer and assistants get rich af cuz this shit is so fucking scrumptious

Best twist for this is that they're acting fucking crazy cause ML used his mind control already but I doubt it, the side characters are probably just plot device characters plotting cus the plot is plotted for it jsfc

literally why'd we just skip over what happened at ch30 with the brother like hello??????????????
