Blue Lips, Gold Performances!
Admittedly, this will be a narrative not to everyone’s taste. It is a tale of quiet love. Between two men who are deeply flawed and so self-absorbed that they have forgotten have to love. Not self-absorbed in a narcissistic fashion but have shutdown because they have been subjugated by forces outside of their control. Yet, still composed or shaped in large part by who they are. Sounding perhaps a bit oxymoronic, but not. Both, to some degree, have been guided by guilt and a compulsive sense of obligation. Perhaps because of that, fate might have already determined that they would meet. This is not a series for your standard BL flock; it offered a more sophisticated approach to the development of a relationship. Here we see the physicality of the connection turn into a deep romantic, quiet love that perhaps only a slightly older couple could achieve. It was refreshing to watch this. Perhaps there will be a Season 2 to clarify some of the abruptness of the way it ended. I sure would like to see that. For those of you who want to see the beginnings of what a deep love relationship is and, dare I say, a soulmate connection, I would highly recommend this series. Just know that the ending is not very clear one.
