MPL - Ep 5 Sneak Preview + Chat
🕑 Added 2019-06-22 08:11:01 +0000 UTCI know people find smoking gross, but a cigarette-smoking Tora will always have me weak. Like ugghh just throw me on the ground and take me now, why don't you. Also Vincent (doesn't he look exactly like a Vincent? lmao), sorry but you'll have to make do with an imitation Hermes belt because I'm not allowed to use real brands in here. On that note, did anyone notice that the bag Erdene lent to Poppy is a Celine Trapeze? 😆
Anyway, this episode will show the dynamics between Tora, Vincent, and the other members of the gang. So it's important. Still, my favourite episodes to work on will always be Poppy and Tora episodes. And I'm gonna make sure there's gonna be tons of them as much, as I can.
That being said, even though this is a romance, I always kinda a little guilty if I don't focus enough on the 'main plot' (as opposed to focusing on the romantic interaction between the two leads). Like, am I neglecting the rest of the story and not putting enough effort into it (even though it's a romance story)? It almost feels self-indulgent. This is why I enjoy making smutty comics so much - because it's pretty much an excuse to prioritise the romance/sex over everything else xD
I guess it's one of those 'do what makes you happy' kinda thing, but I wonder if any other of you romance writers (or readers, for that matter) have faced this issue, or have any thoughts on this? I personally, always enjoy a romance title much more if there's an actual plot weaved in. But if the main plot starts to take over, I'll skip everything just to get to the MC romance scenes. For me I'll always want to read about the MC's interactions, and I would put that at an 80-20.

The romance is flat without the MC's interactions outside of each other. We get to see how they deal with other people, and how those interactions are changed by each other and whatnot.
I love Poppy an Tora episodes but those allowing us to understand better the mafia system in this story, Tora's past etc, i like too,!
