You’re welcome. Honestly, it made me really think and I believe you’re correct, he is much more complex than he’s written most of the time.
Granted, I haven’t actually read a ton with him (which is ironic because he’s the title character) but he’s just not as popular for reader inserts and I don’t really read ship fics.
I haven’t written him very much either because of the lack of requests for him but yeah, I had to read it and re-read it and think about how he is in the anime (never read the manga) and it made more sense to me than it did the first time I read it through.
I also failed to mention that I TOTALLY agree with you about Aomine.
He is not one who would get into a committed relationship lightly, so to have someone betray him like that would damage him hard.
