Nakyum is no longer kneeling at Seungho’s feet, looking up at him from the floor like a beggar in a silent supplication of mercy. There is no cruel hand holding his head in place, only gentle fingers under his chin. All this perfectly portrays the newfound equality between them.
It isn't force or fear which make Nakyum come to the nobleman's side and allow him to touch him, it's Seungho's gentleness and kindness. He comes to him willingly and all Seungho needs to do now is ask.
He selfishly used them for his own pleasure and gratification and mistreated them in his jealousy and need to prove to himself that he held power over Nakyum because power and fear used to be the only way he knew how to keep Nakyum by his side and make him want him.
There was a time when it was Seungho who defiled and hurt that innocent little mouth, abused that sweet tongue and rejected those pearly teeth. He only cared for his own wellbeing while disregarding Nakyum's. #painterofthenight
Summoning Seungho and Nakyum's hapinness ❤️

Three chapters into #painterofthenightseason2 and there's only a short sex scene and no violence, yet people are obsessing about it like never before, going crazy because of a short, three-word sentence and Seungho touching Nakyum's mouth with a finger. #PainterOfTheNight
The moment when Nakyum asks Seungho why he’s being so kind to him perfectly portrays this ambivalence: the way Seungo pauses, looks away and literally stalls and hesitates before he speaks, all things which are very unlike him.
I did some blending and touch up.I hope it looks somewhat better now ❤

Deep down in his heart, Nakyum realizes it but fears to admit it out loud. However, the way he reveals the reasons why he came back betrays him. It’s actually a latent human defense mechanism to place false, vague or less important information in front of the most correct answer.
To feel so hopeless and unsure of one's feelings is not an easy feat. What Nakyum is trying to do in POTN's S2 is trying to numb his feelings so as not to get hurt of the fact the he is alone and has nowhere to go.
seungho: *makes nakyum eat in his chamber* *checks immediately on him after injuring his mouth* *feeds him from his own food because he is too thin*
nakyum: why are you soo kind to me?
seungho: your bones hurt
attempt #206 of seungho trying to flirt with nakyum by being a bully and he.....
..........................MISSES!!!!
the way seungho keeps on asking about this sudden change in nakyum's behaviour and him willing to do anything he asks him to unlike how it went before, he knows something is off and he is not happy about it.
Baby Nakyum, how can you be so kind? I love you so much 🥺❤#PainterOfTheNight

Finally, Nakyum belongs to somewhere and he’s never had that before in his life. No one ever made him or his wellbeing their priority. He used to be a charity case for them at best.
Seungho holds a huge sway and influence over Nakyum’s thoughts and decisions.He literally spelled out for NK how to successfully run away from him and NK really is following his advice now, leaving when the whole household is asleep #painterofthenightseason2 #painterofthenight
