That was an incredible essay, you worded things so well without going into detail overload (and it is so easy to talk about these two for pages upon pages.)

I'm still squeeing about being included in the rec, and you're right - a consensual realtionship between the two really has to be written just right under an extremely creative plot, or it's just out of character.

I can't wait to take a look at the recs I haven't seen...that scene in the hallway is directly responsible for my yaoi obsession - it corrupts absolutely.

I'm SO adding this to my memories. Wonderful job!
