So far, so good!

Okay, first things first.
I put off watching this show for the longest time because I hated Fiat's character in TharnType S2. But this show pleasantly surprised me. Hat's off to Leo's patience that he put up with all of Fiat's shenanigans. Given a chance, I would reach out through my screen, and slap him hard. He is selfish, manipulative and not even a halfway decent character. But aren't all of us like that at some point in our lives? We all have out moments, where we turn into Fiats by and large. Maybe that's why we hate him so much in the beginning. His past trauma was so hard to bear.
His mother is ill. But does his dad explain everything to him? No! He decides to martyr himself. That's absolutely ridiculous. I hate parents like these, who traumatise their children more under the guise of it all being 'for their own good'. This is the silliest and most immature trope. BL writers, please give it up. Type's dad was another so called righteous dad. Ugghh! But I admire and respect Leo for being able to communicate for both their sakes and take no nonsense from anyone, including Fiat when needed. I had thought he is was a pushover when it came to Fiat, but he stood his ground when needed.
The friends and teammates all have my heart. The twins are the sweetest. I however didn't like the fact that they were not given proper screen time and were instead reduced to being literal sidekicks, as in, they walked into the screen when needed, and walked out when their work was done. It was considerably mishandled.
Now let's come to the best and most amazing part of this show, everyone's favourite, Leon. he is absolutely the bestest character that I have ever met in all the BL series I have seen so far, and I have seen many. He is sweet, polite, respectful of his partner and steady as a rock. He is truly boyfriend material. I think people like him exist, but under a rock somewhere. I just need to find him!

So all in all, until now, going good. I am left with 2 more episodes so let's see where we go from here!

Quick update:
I am done with it. But why oh why are the women always the lying, manipulative bitches in BL dramas? Please stop it now! High time. I am ok with the ending. I am hoping though they make a story for Leon and Pob... they were my absolute favourites!!...
