Nightmare drama brought to you straight (pun intended) from the ninth circle of hell

If you're currently writing a BL story and you need guidance on what not to do, look no further than this trainwreck.

Normalising straight women fetishizing gay men? Check!
R*pe being justified and romanticised? Check!
Mind you, this drama also has an attempted r*pe scene that's treated as disgusting and enraging, but i guess it doesn't count if they're brothers, which brings me to...
Weird and unnecessary incest plotline? Check!
Like, they could have written about ANYTHING, just anything, and they went with a bizarre and uncomfortable "love" story between two unrelated brothers who grew up together, one of whom is legit written like a sociopath? Why. Can someone PLEASE for the love of gay gods explain to me, WHY?!

Also, it's got consent issues all over. The way LC confessed his love for example. And I'm sorry but him getting horny from the way MR reacted to BEING DRUGGED after he was literally SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AND ALMOST RAPED?! just makes me want to slap the life out of whoever wrote thus. He literally brings it up when explaining why he's suddenly interested in MR and I'm like "that was a traumatizing experience for him after which you literally avoided him and you're trying to make it into something sexy?"

It's such a shame because I think the dynamic between a deadpan guy and the soft and caring type (the two "brothers") could have been interesting, if not for the incest implications and the fact that the younger one is literally acting like a sexually abusive stalker.

In conclusion: I'm tired.
