Comment by AIroH on Define The Relationship (Yaoi) - Chapter 54

@AIroH He's not acting like a victim, he's just confused with his feelings. Aren't some people like that? you can't blame him for his stupid strange actions, considering having a bad past life, his immature self made him like that. 

He'll improve the way he acts and tend to be a great lover for his baby any soon.

@AIroH imo when he told others "we don't have a relationship" it's almodt a flash back to the beginning, in which karlyle said they didn't have a relationship and feelings shouldn't be involved. I think it was him trying to respect karlyles boundaries by not labelling it a relationship before they agreed on it. This is NOT me justifying it or agreeing with it but that's just what I think happened

@AIroH he literally said we are nothing rn but i hope we can be something

@c yup it was Ash thinking it. He never voiced it. The main problem like everyone noticed, is the lack of communication. From both part sure but, Lyle literally never gave in any information about his feelings towards Ash. An ice.
I think since Karlyle internalized his feelings and had so many thoughts.. we just imagined that he actually talked to Ash much more. Reality shows otherwise. It's even questionable how Ash developed feelings to someone who literally answered "yes", "no", "whatever please you" with the same poker face 😐 (aside bed time session).
