Now about Joseph. It's funny that you missed everything I wrote and are trying to justify him again. The author showed Youngwoo's face & made it obvious why Jo put on the bandage again, although before that he said that nothing hurts anymore, but you can continue to deny it. By the way, immediately after this, the brat, in a fit of jealousy, ran after TJ to prevent him from meeting Ian. Jo constantly decides for others how they should live, who they should date & who they should avoid. Isn't this possessiveness?
I repeat, I am amazed at how you distort the facts. Ian stopped sleeping with others out of guilt, since Jo had already thrown him a tantrum when she saw him with a man, although he himself suggested they be friends. This is the emotional manipulation you wrote about.
It's also disgusting how you call the rаре scene of an unconscious man controversial. And yes, Jo had also wanted to c** on Ian’s face earlier, but didn’t get consent, so he did it when his partner lost consciousness, which made the situation even worse. It's dehumanizing, hideous & humiliating especially since Joseph ended up hiding his terrible act.
It's truly hypocritical for you to denigrate TJ & devalue his relationship with Ian, but at the same time demand understanding for everything Jo has done.
It's not funny because I didn't miss it, and I'm not justifying Joe, I'm explaining him , a difference you would attempt to consider if you undertood that I'm clearly not rooting for either of the two .
I'm receptive enough to comprehend your clarification with the hand and bandage scenario. When I read it, I hadn't perceived it as a tactic because Joe wasn't planning on seeing Ian that day. He only wanted to when he saw Tj and he stopped Ian because at that point , he understood that Tj was part of Ian's darker sides of life which Ian himself , had told him that he had walked away from. He stopped him, to protect him in his own way. I don't see you calling it imposing when Tj was protecting Ian in his own way back in the past. Or did Ian ask Tj to help him get into the organization? Did Ian ask Tj to like him ?? He didn't. You look at Joe's actions as imposing because you obviously hate him and I'm not asking you not to, I'm asking you to look at them with level headedness. Regarding the guilt, Ian felt it because he regarded Joe's feelings. That wasn't manipulation. If he didn't regard Joe in any way he would do as he pleased . If someone told me they liked me and I wasn't interested in them , I wouldn't feel guilty dating someone else. You'll say anything to exaggerate Joe in such a henious fashion.
I can understand the disgusting accusations though but I'm not taking it personally because I've read enough yaoi to know what shock factors by authors look like. I'll spell it for you one last time regardless , I'm not justifying Joe, I'm EXPLAINING him, and I'm not rooting for Tj, I'm not rooting for either but I don't like when one is villainized and another glorified when none of them are healthy or better choices with how the narrative has unveiled so far
@MaryJane Thank youI'm so happy that there are adequate people here! These Jo excusers are just disgustingHow can they turn a blind eye to how he raped Ian, manipulated him and planned his life for him deciding that he would be better off with him than with TJ whom Ian really loves?
