Lately I’ve been seeing a post circulating about how Saeyoung’s dark chocolate ending is actually a bad ending where MC doesn’t accept his true self but instead coerces him to be a mask of himself; since they believe that ending isn’t true to his cannon self. I can understand that people’s headcannons might be different but some of them even compare that ending to Jumin’s possessive bad ending. May I ask your own take on it? Do you thinks those endings have any parallels?
Umm well there aren’t “bad ends” in that Valentines DLC. So I won’t even address comparisons to Jumin because it’s completely different.
Saeyoung is the most common favorite and sort of the signature character of the game which is why I assume they gave him 2 endings.
The dark chocolate ending is, of course, more provocative. I honestly loved it. He and MC have been together for a bit of time at that point, and it’s just so intimate.
It (the way he talks) sounds strange, because Saeyoung is a suuuuuper technical person. He thinks in numbers and computer programs etc. That’s just how his mind works. To a normal person, the way he phrases things may sound…odd and probably most of all–detached. We have to keep in mind he didn’t go to regular school and has basically spent his life with computers…..so ya.
Not only does this (the way he talks) fit his CANON personality, but it is a fucking clever way for Cheritz to get away with being naughty without saying things that are too risqué.
This whole ending, to me…is a more mature, consensual, and sexual love. It’s all about opening up to one another not just mentally but physically. This isn’t someone trying to dominate or hurt another person, this is Saeyoung saying basically:
“Look, I know what I want to do to you. I’ve thought about it many times. I want you to relax and give your fears and anxieties over to me, and I will take care of you. Don’t hide yourself and don’t be afraid. I want to see you at your most vulnerable.”
Which is honestly what sex is. Experimenting as a couple is friggin’ scary, and new territory for both of them. But it’s also very exciting.
This is a conversation a lot of couples have. Or it may be something you slowly test the waters in over the course of your relationship.
THIS IS LIKE THE BEST MOST WONDERFUL ENDING IN THE WHOLE GAME HOW COULD YOU THINK THIS IS BAD!!!! THIS IS LIKE A HUUUUGE STEP IN A RELATIONSHIP AND SHOWS HOW FAR THEY’VE COME IN UNDERSTANDING AND TRUSTING ONE ANOTHER!
Okay, I can see how you could misinterpret lol. Like I said, Saeyoungs weird way of speaking can make it sound as if he is idk maybe being controlling or manipulative but like I said, it’s just the way his brain works and also it’s better for him to say “ill make sure you have the best night in my own little game” than “imma fuck you so good, gurllll” lol
Anyway…I see in no way, shape or form how you could interpret this as MC coercing him into not being his true self? This ending couldn’t be more Saeyoung if it tried. He has canon sadistic tendencies, he is a techno dork, he is one billion percent about consensual relations, and he loves MC and just wants to share everything with each other as a means to be as close as possible.
