i love when a relationship feels like friendship too. like yeah we kiss and cuddle and all that, but we also be sitting there talking shit about people and laughing at dumb stuff for hours
friends to lovers is highkey the healthiest and most romantic trope. to know that someone has loved you platonically before they did romantically is just unmatched.
the intimacy of sleeping together, but not in a sexual way. the intimacy of feeling the warmth of their body in a cool room. their hands hugging you tightly. the intimacy of synchronized breathing. sleepy half-kisses. feeling safe.
A week ago Jinshi was a rapist, yesterday chauvinistic, today a manwhore and tomorrow he’s the Antichrist. And he even gets to snuggle with Maomao whenever he wants! The fucker. The jack of all trades.
