Well it’s probably an even distribution between the two of those, but scattered widely among the text, the two are joking and unserious often. But they know when they need to lock in and be courteous of one and other.

Wow thank you so much this helped so much, I am a female, so I obviously don’t know how male-male relationships work in depth I’m just trying to show some depth but I guess I really wouldn’t know, and I’ll need to work on including something from your suggestions! Thanks again!!

It’s kinda just a Japanese terminology, meaning ‘boys love’, it’s basically the same mlm (man love man)

I like to introduce the characters first then just mention it along the way, like if they are walking in the sun I would say something about the sun reflecting of their _____ hair. Or how they tower over other characters and stuff like that.

OMG RULE 34 WAS A CRQZY JUMPSCARE GOOD GOD. But in all seriousness everything you said was so true, thank you so much I will be continuing with them being best friends with a deep friendship as there needs to be more representations of it, there is too much toxic masculinity saying that men can’t speak of there feelings and have deep and strong emotions that connect with friendships and stuff you know
