This novel was one of the first novels I read, so imagine my surprise when I was looking for something else, and nothing was even close to being as good at this.
How it treats KRS past life, his character and how intersects with the rest. And, yes, acting like an actual adult was refreshing, I also read a stupid amount of romantic Isekai and it's so weird for these women to act like they are 25 or 30 like they are supposed to be.
And thank every cosmic power, when he isekaided on a younger body, he didn't feel attracted to a minor. Because that apparently is a common factor in the rest of the novels I tried to read.
You know one of my favorite things about this novel?
Is that Cale (Well, Kim Roku Soo) actually acts his age (36)
I personally haven't read many Isekais aimed at male audiences, so I can't speak for those
I have, however read quite a bit of Otome Isekais
And one of the things that annoys me the most about the genre, is when the protagonist, usually an adult woman, gets reincarnated into a baby, a child or a teenager and you sometimes forget their actual age because some of the things they do, some of the decisions they make are /baffling/ when you remember they're a grown ass adult
But with Cale is quite the opposite, people around him are often left scratching their heads at some of his actions and level of maturity ("Aren't you supposed to be 18-20?")
Hell, one time he told Raon that he is "30 years older than him" only to remember mid-phrase that nope, he's actually supposed to be only 15 years older
-Spoilers for P1-
And it's also very funny when Alberu finds out that Cale is, in fact actually older than him, his reaction is pure gold because he's supposed to be the hyung around here you know?
Their first month anniversary prob was something like this:
Roy: happy anniversary, jaybird. I got you that set of knives you were looking for last week (he pull an all nighter just trying to find a way to ship them on time)
Jason: *panicking because he didn't know it was their anniversary* thank you, Roy, you didn't have to. I have reservations for dinner tonight, don't make plans. (he later was calling all the fancy restaurants he knew just to find a reservation for that night)
Jason is exhausted, injured and anxious, he doesn't want to sleep alone in his flat. So in the middle of the night, he infiltrates Roy's who's already asleep. Jason tends to his own injury, takes his clothes off and slips in the bed next to him. Feeling the warmth of someone's body against his skin helps him feel safe and fall asleep.
The next morning, Roy wakes up to a quasi naked Jason laying next to him. His mind is going ape shit as he wonders if he got too drunk last night. Later, Jason is wandering all chill in his apartment as Roy silently loses his mind trying to recall the night before.
Jason's subconscious : Ah, I'm so lucky to have Roy in my life. Really brings me the affection and support I need to heal. He doesn't even realize it. What a great friend !
Roy's subconscious : Did I do it ?! Did I ?? Fuck, I finally did it and can't even remember, what a loser. Did I fuck him ? I clearly didn't get fucked... So did I ?! Did I do it ??
The way I literally gasped when I saw this
There's a reason people mistake him for a dragon.
With no doubt.
He’s the best there is at what he does, and what he does is tax evasion
I think that KRS!Cale could be a great fanon Red Hood. Like a Crime Boss that controls the underground with the basic rules:
1) Don't deal with kids (or touch them in general)
2) Don't traffic people
3) Don't rape or abuse
Do it, and you will find out really fast
The difference is that he does not do all the hard work and uses his lieutenants, Choi Han, Ron, Beacrox, and Rosalyn, to apply all the rules while he takes care of the other boss criminals.
Attempting to finish supernatural as fast as humanly possible without failing school so I can type the words “Dean/castiel” into the ao3 search bar and finally read the 16 years worth of gay fanfiction I know is on there
Ok but Gilbert is so pretty???? He's super pretty and I'm actually pissed we never get much of him! Has he ever even talked!?? Damn it I need him to have more action please he's so freaking beautiful!
i was looking for references and i found this very funny picture and i immediately went "jayroy"
ok but legitimately i think the reason why kids aren’t taking internet safety seriously is because the people who are telling us not to put our personal information out seem so out of touch. no one acknowledges the possibility of meeting very real teenaged friends online, they always say that everyone you meet is a 40 year old white man in disguise. because they aren’t acknowledging things we know are true, it becomes a lot easier to dismiss the rest of what they’re saying as well. internet safety lessons absolutely must keep up with the times and acknowledge the internet’s capacity for good if you want kids to take to heart warnings about its capacity for bad.
Something healed inside me after seeing this
I am feeling so guilty about keeping drawing Cale in stead of actual work.
