JESUS FUCKING CHRIST THE WAY I SPEEDRAN THROUGH THIS AND THE WAY I'M LOSING MY MIND MORE AND MORE AS THE STORY PROGRESSES LAWD
onto the important parts:
- this is one of the healthiest, best representation of bdsm and kinks that i've dabbled into
- jesus sebastian is fucking hot
- ending felt like a cliffhanger but also doesn't feel like it, which is such a good parallel to how the dynamic is???
- pacing was sooo good, the whole time i was so immersed i forgot it ends, which kinda proved my point with bullet number 3 lol very VERY immersive
- creator really researched about bdsm and kinks like none of this feels so bizarre and TOO fictional (MASSIVE side-eye to 50 sh*des what the fuck is that book)
- smut is SO well written it's SO good? you can tell they've proofread it over and over
- the stakes and implications were inserted so naturally you can FEEL how intense and human the interactions and dynamics are
- sebastian's character is so well-rounded, he almost feels alive. lol side note, almost all of what i said here is just pointing out how immersive the game is it's just so realistic
- kink negotiations were done so well
- finally, the options for m/f/nb here, love that.
