In a middle-ish chapter, top gets drunk and has sex w bottom who is saying stop and no. When he sobers up, he remembers and apologizes.

In late chapters, top blindfolds and ties up bottom who is scared bcus he’s not sure it’s the top and asks multiple times to stop. Bottom gets “revenge” later (tying up top and using a urethral plug w/out consent), and top does the same thing to him.

Danggg....had to drop it. The art is SO good though and I was conflicted if I should keep reading only because of that but decided to drop it either way.

Relatable drama story with smut

I read it without reading anything about it (no summary, no genre, no comments, no ratings, etc) beforehand and this is a surprisingly very good story.

Parts of the story are high on drama but on a realistic way: Rumors are a plague in university settings and both MCs lack communication skills at time, leading to misunderstandings.

If a reader expect MCs to be expert communicators who easily convey their feelings in healthy convo and are smart and wise enough to avoid every mistake a 20 year old could make, this is not the right story for them.

MCs are a little bit stupid at time, they make bad decisions, they doubt themselves, they are scared about the future, they misprepare for the consequences of their actions : and that's what makes them human and the story is very relatable.

There's a lot of smut too.

Not the very best but not the worst

Below in the comments is a complain about this story regarding an issue in wich the seme did something awful to his boyfriend. Funny thing is they dropped the story at that point bc if they keep reading, they would find a side story that explains how

Youngmin gets his revenge for being blindfolded by Jungwoo and it seems that he didn't have any problem re-creating something similar because he blindfolded and tied Jungwoo's hands just to play with a toy and Jungwoo's urethra and didn't stop when was told bc Jungwoo didn't do it when he told him to stop. Ofc this didn't finish here, Jungwoo unties himself and did something similar to his boyfriend. During aftersex, both say sorry and Jungwoo understood that he did something cruel to his lover back then when he blindfolded him first and says that he won't do anything like that again bc he didn't know how hard it was for Youngmin everytime that he didn't stop when was told bc of a whim. In the end it seems like Youngmin didn't have any trauma for what Jungwoo did, he just wanted revenge. Not saying it was the best way to handle this situation but the author acknowledged that seme's actions were not right and tried their best to make a scenario in which they would acknowledged that their actions must cause pleasure and must have consent.

Being in a relationship is hard bc people is different, communication is key to being able to understand partners and these youngsters showed that they didn't know how to be honest with each lother; if they have said "i don't like this" or "we need to talk" in a serious scenario in wich they talked about their relationship, many of the issues will be resolved instead of being dragged, but that's difficult, being afraid of being hated by whom you love the most is very normal and both characters decided many things in their own without thinking in their partner's opinion. Sure, they would love each other but they kept acting as if everything was perfect, as if nothing bothered them.

Btw, i like drama, all the rumors in this story just reminded me of many stories in wich the heroine is badmouthed for things they didn't do and ended isolated until people finds the truth and they apologize. Everytime i see this trope i feel very uneasy bc it can happen in real life; rumors are very common, easily to be spreaded and difficult to erase even when proved wrong. I think the guilt and stress that Jungwoo and Youngmin had due this circumstance was kinda realistic and very sad bc they ended doing things that hurted themselves instead of relying in each other as a couple.

Not the very best but not awful as people might say, sure there's questionable content but i prefered to read it and judge by myself. So, for me is a story with a relationship development bc they were in cloud nine at first and then thevy go downhill due to their actions. So, they learnt through all the story to rely in each other. What I would liked to see was Jungwoo stopping being an spoiled brat, but considering his context that's difficult, still in some way i think he stopped being so childish, so, that's something.

The art was my type and it had a comedic vibe at the start but I got creeped out by a certain character on chapter 9 and dropped it. Please heed the content warnings!
