Clarisse being even more evil. By the way, Carlo is doing the same thing he did to Phan at the beginning of the series ;-)

Oh she’s diabolical is what she is!

Dexia

Threatening to punish someone else for your actions... That's one of the most evil things you can ever do, even more when you punish shyness / insecurities. She deserves all the hurt your characters can unleash on her.

Max Freeman

Oh, so he does care for Carlo after all, but Theo is definitely afraid of Clarisse...hmmm, what's she planning?

R@nD0m dUd3.

I think the general idea is that she wants Theo to end up just like Phan, someone who cares more for pleasure rather than romantic attachment, that way Lug is hers for the taking.

Max Freeman

So, she knows about the relationship and doesn't care about feelings; is romantic attachment forbidden?

Anhes

Romantic relationships are permitted, but society tends to prioritize breeding and lineage. It's obvious that females suffer from this as well, in their own way. Despite appearances, females generally have fewer freedoms than males, bound by their own protocols. When Clarisse's past is explored in the following chapters, everything will become clearer.

R@nD0m dUd3.

Between males I suppose, the whole thing is that this is a Matriarchal society where men are treated like objects. Although homosexuality is common it’s not exactly encouraged. Men have a period of grace where they get their urges out of their system then they have to submit to their wives’ will. I hope I’m remembering all that right, if not then I don’t really know.

Anhes

That's right, homosexuality is common, especially since very few males will have access to a female throughout their lives. So, those who aren't considered suitable for marriage and breeding usually lead normal lives with relative freedom, supporting society with ordinary, productive work. Those destined to marry (like Phan) have a grace period, generally assisted by tutors; this topic will be discussed later in the chapter. The fate of females unqualified to marry and procreate is a separate matter that will be explored later, but their fate may be even sadder than that of the males.

Max Freeman

Well, according to Bruce, his wife owned the club, and he fancied PhanPhan, and she allowed it, so asking for permission is a must, but in Barry's case, he had to do it in secret. Matt and Nobu are free until that point. Sounds like Theo is trying to flip the script

Max Freeman

I think I see where you're getting at here, and I have a feeling

....Did I told you how much I despise Clarisse?

R@nD0m dUd3.

I think it’s safe to say we all do

Chad Raymond

Theo is probably hung like his father

Mlledetoccupe

The expression of contrition on Carlo's face, so much is told here without a word of his... Fantastic job !

Diego P

She's evil!

MeltedPearls

I don’t necessarily despise her…yet. I’m super anxious to see her backstory, and Lug and Theo’s by association, of course! Then I’ll pass my judgement, but I have a feeling we’ll all end up feeling sorry for her, even if at least just a little bit. Her whole character screams pitiful to me, by how she’s using underhanded tactics to reach an end goal she so desperately desires, yet can’t seem to reach. Therefore, she resorts to this type of behavior. 😔
