HI, I love your comment so much, too!! I remember seeing what you said about Outtakes, that it wasn't so much a figure skating fic as much as it is a BGJW fic, and I support that 100%. Dialogue has always been one of the hardest things to pin down for me, but the fact that the show exists makes things so much better.
I like pairings where the people involved enjoy being together, it's like my crack.
BASICALLY JUST THIS YES. I love the slow burn that Johnny/Stephane can be sometimes, the way they maybe love each other but aren't quite at the stage where they actually recognise it yet, but that's okay, because their friendship is a seriously valuable thing to both of them too. It's, just -- they've known each other for such a long time, but they've been apart for most of it too! So they understand each other, but they don't get to meet very often either, such that when they do it feels like a special occasion.
I like how it can be hard to demarcate between friendship and romance for them, and basically every story I want to tell about the both of them just consists of a whole bunch of well-lit scenes where they're smiling at each other goofily and feeling like they lucked out. *_____________*
You should tell me about allllll the stories you want about the both of them, for I am interested in your brain.
