aside from their enjoyment of weird green bathrooms (and of course their unwavering love and respect of their partners) let's see what else my most beloved bl couples have in common
Between Us/Love in the Air
after one unforgettable night in bed, a motorcycle riding rich guy pursues an emotionally closed off college boy, using free food, a presence that boarders stalking and help with anything he can, whether asked to ot not, to push past the initial rejection and gain his trust and affection
the boy eventually feels safe enough to share the trauma that left him plagued with nightmares and afraid to love. finally together and in love, they have a romantic moment on the beach, and a playful challenge in the water (just not in the sea) their closest friends have also fallen for each other during this time
a man who's been on his own and taking care of himself since he was a teen is asked by a wealthy older man to come home and stay with him, after the younger one helped him break free of what waa blocking his abilities. he agrees, having his own, not well hidden, reasons for agreeing.
after revealing the secrets of the greedy family member who's been manipulating one and sent people to attack the other, the two of them decide to make their home in the place they first met, and to love each other forever
while trying to handle business for his father, one man realizes the other isn't who he thought but he's drugged and taken hostage when he tries to get away from him. though many people know he's being held, he has almost no help escaping.
he's put through emotionally and physically painful experiences, before his captor reveals the secret that he'd know who he was from the beginning. he finally frees him and admits that he's fallen in love with him, but rather than leaving, he asks to stay, having fallen in love with his captor as well, despite all logic and reason
so, it turns out they've been telling very different versions of the same stories
and thanks to touch me teach me, soon fortpeat will have night club scenes to compare to bounprem's in cutie pie too
