I am a horrible cousin, Happy Belated Birthday!!!! If you PM me your addy, I have something to send to you. Also, come visit! You can crash with me! I know this place that does awesome vegan ice-cream. /tempts
The hilarious thing is that in the drama itself she isn't even doing it because she thinks he will blow her cover (either on purpose or because he'll investigate and find out the truth unless she distracts him). She has no idea he thinks she may be a spy and it is just as well, because he doesn't - he has no idea she is undercover (is not the brightest bulb ever, tbh). The most he suspects her of is liking another dude and teaming up with that dude to steal stuff but she doesn't even know that! So yeah, while demanding you have sex as proof of love is not a good thing, how it becomes in any way rape is beyond me. (Also, she physically lured him somewhere, threw him on the bed and tried to make out with him some eps back despite his repeated attempts to get out of there and she is the stronger one of the two, and nobody in fandom made a peep, which was odd. This drama may have problematic gender dynamics but the problems go both ways. I happen to love dysfunction in fiction but I am not claiming theirs is a relationship one should emulate).
Exactly. This is a fun way for me to unwind because nobody in my RL likes dramas - it's a means not to bore my husband to death by talking about it. It's not some sort of fandom Mecca.
