@Byeol I came here for Ian but someone stole the spotlight but Ian might become one of best grey characters I love! Ian had truly turned into a monster, tried to deny all the dirt he did for the sake of not leaving TJ behind.Ian was so deep in toxic guilt and still is(I am still waiting for the real reason for that toxic guilt,obviously blind love alone didn't cause his self destruction)Ian could have totally avoided the whole jail time and protection money 'cuz that's what the lawyers told TJ.There will be no arguments TJ really used that opportunity to hold back Ian selfishly when Ian reflected on the broken monsters they had became even if excuses(like stalking & jailed only to protect Ian from danger cliché,won't make sense but ppl eat that,i have hope in this story tho)show up in the future 'cuz there is no way Ian who had killed b4 for the gang with no reason gonna feel better locked in jail for the 1st time he killed someone while defending midway & I'm aware this is an unplanned homicide not self defense the moment Ian grabbed the person who ran away but at 1st it was indeed self defense. Did you guys notice how the hotel tj currently lives in looks almost same as where ian did the killing? Almost look like 1703 from chapter 7 was the room that was infront of Ian's old room...(I focus more on how 3 key characters treat each other and play out in each others' life;their close ones than the gang surrounding 'cuz I chose to read a story that will never have moral punishment for their past but I won't mind if the author add some twist!)
