I don’t like when love interests are kinda shitty but the narrative treats then like they’re justified, but there’s a specific dynamic I really like where it’s

main character: actually I find your shit personality super attractive <3

love interest: what… the fuck is wrong with you

#my ramblings #not a lot of romances go full force with that #but yknow #letting down the mask of perfection counts for this imo #the reason i’m thinking abt this is bc there’s a bl webtoon that’s prett new #and it seems to be Actually Committing To This Kind Of Dynamic #where the mc is a writer of bl novels #and is looking for something to inspire his next work #but he only likes writing scummy mls (he thinks nice mls are too static)#so when his friend introduces him to a handsome guy he’s like eh. he’s too nice.#but when he sees the handsome guy threatening someone in an alleyway he’s like omg… charm point #lmao. genuinely very compelled by that #bc yknow it’s less about. accepting or normalizing mistreatment #and more like oh ok lmao mc’s hyping this up full force and on purpose because he likes two-faced people. I love that #highlights and centers ‘flaws’ in an interesting way
