Since nicotine is the only thing i can focus on recently and it would be incredibly unfair to expect more of it im just going to indulge & dissect that scene where jk chose to bottom. its a psychoanalytical character study if you will, i have no intentions of being offensive so forgive me if it comes out that way Basically how jungkook, a “straight” guy still figuring out his sexuality, came to like having the kind of sex he was having with taehyung Ofc most of it is credited to th & his treatment of jk especially when they’re being intimate. th pays very careful attention to jks comfort its evident from the very first scene of the fic. Despite being “enemies” before the opening scene, th makes sure to make things as good for jk as he feels for himself. We see it in th's pov but jk becomes aware of it by the end of the scene. It goes beyond attraction for a guy like jk who’d been pining over a single girl all his life hadn’t ever entertained the thought of being attracted to another guy and then actually ending up enjoying himself while being fucked. Half of it was the way th made sure that jk felt it good. Not only his comfort but also his own pleasure, to talk him through it by bantering. I’m not saying th did it entirely intentionally but i think by now its clear that th is just a nice guy. He cares for people, their wellbeing, tries to make them comfortable. But then of course he can also not be nice It could have started off as simply a pleasurable distraction for them both, but sex, no matter what kind, is always intimate. it matters alot how a person is made to feel throughout it, before it, after it. th made sure to keep it on jk's terms alot of the times jk, from what i feel, is someone who desperately needs taking care of. Not that he needs to be babied but he needs to feel like he can be completely himself & not get shamed for it. His struggles weigh him down he has no other means to let go other than football and smoking. [[contd. i hate character/word limits ugh]]
