Sorry this took a long time, I had a lot of trouble getting the raws…
UPDATE 3/8/25: fixed one of the lines on page 6 for a more accurate translation.
Originally wrote "I think it’s endearing when a beginner tries their best, even if their work is a mess”, assuming that the statement followed Kazuki talking about his talent in bondage.
Original line was “ぐちゃぐちゃになりながらも健気に頑張る子が愛しいと思うよ”.
Fixed based on the context that before Kazuki’s joke, he admitted to being a sadist and Miu (a known submissive) has a flattered reaction to his statement.
You see it in the professional world sometimes. People that are extremely talented and thus have a big following, but the casual observer only ever sees their sanitized public persona (or what they want to see). It's actually pretty realistic for a manga where coworkers go to an S&M bar together.
its not the ideal relationship dynamic as much as it is getting obsessed with holding power over people. you unfortunately see a lot of straight dudes in s&m circles like this guy that assume they're gods gift to the world and become the biggest creeps around and go hard into misogyny "this is where women belong etc etc". it's nice to see them represent the scene so truthfully and show off the ugly parts too.
