Just realized Cristoforo x Brant give me vibes of another rarepair I like – Mr Reca x Sunday. Just two actors participating in their passionate boyfriends' stories by acting out their given roles. Although I have a feeling Sunday would be way more interested in Cristoforo's plays, being a theater kid at heart and all.
They’re both obsessive to an unhealthy degree, but Cristoforo is very good at hiding it behind pretty smiles and nonchalant acts while Reca is generous with his adoration and possessiveness. Both prefer creating dangerous scenarios, putting their significant others in harms way. Brant, of course, enjoys the challenges no matter how big and enthusiastically faces them head-on. Sunday, on the other hand, isn't the biggest fan of the action scenes, which is why he sternly “talks” things out with the film director. Rawly, more often than not.
And there's no ignoring the “Enemies & Lovers” aspect of both ships. Brant, playing his assigned role of a dumb hunk with zero self-awareness, and in doing so – monitoring the Fractsidus, keeping them in check. Cristoforo allows it to a certain extent, for he is quite charmed by the younger man, but not enough to betray his own interests. And Sunday, catering to Reca's every whim – no matter how big – to use the Memokeeper in the future. Reca knows, of course, but doesn't mind it for as long as Sunday belongs to him.
I have so many thoughts about them it's slowly killing my brain.
