It's a yes from me.

This BL is one that I really liked. I eagerly awaited new episodes every week, curious where the story was gonna go.

And I was not disappointed. Though it is a show I wouldn't necessarily rewatch, I really did enjoy it.

The history of Ben and Jim is really one that pulls on my heartstrings, especially for Ben. It is the typical "fell in love with my childhood best friend", but done well.

Leo's story also seriously pulled at the strings. As a person who has mental health issues themselves, I completely get wanting to use a person to find happiness. I also greatly appreciate Ben and Flo taking his mental health into account when thinking of what to do with him. They didn't go hard on him, but they did make him face the consequences of his actions.

Yana and Oland honestly deserve better. Yana was played by her boyfriend as well as his best friend. Olan was led on to believe he had a chance, and not even turned down properly. I truly hope they find a future together (kinda ship them).

Now, the way both Ben and Jim handled the situation wasn't perfect, but we have to remember that, even though fictional, they portray the behavior of real human beings. Those who make mistakes and learn from them.

This is why what Flo said is so important.
"Nothing in this world can ever set us free. Not love. Not peace. Not wealth. It's the truth. It's the only force as powerful as time itself."
