no world where this works unfortunately. individually they all have their reasons why any sort of poly dynamic just would not mesh. martin is too career oriented and genuinely cannot worry about relationships right now. i’m maju truther #1 and even I don’t think they’re going to seriously figure out whatever tension is budding between them for at LEAST another few years. juhoon is too new to the industry and has way too much to lose, he also seems like he would be the least interested in managing/maintaining a relationship (let alone multiple) at this point in his career. keonho and hyeon are just too young realistically. hyeon seems like the type that doesn’t enjoy all the attention being on him, and while I do think he’s got a burgeoning case of princess syndrome, i think realistically he would not want more than he can handle. james has trainee a trauma. he’s never getting involved in a messy queer relationship again because look how it ended for him last time.

very fun in theory, but in practice tragically i will never be able to group poly them. maybe a hyung line poly eventually once james and juhoon finally admit they want to fuck but i also feel like that’s maybe a bit of a ways off. and then martin would have to be gently coaxed into it like a feral cat for fear of him fleeing at the slightest bit of conflict.

so so so glad you stumbled your way over here i’ve been tuned in to them since like ?? october?? i really gotta talk about them more. anxin vies so hard for hao’s attention it’s honestly very sweet of him. he wants hao to express his affection for him so bad and jiahao wants to pretend to be stoney about it so bad. i really think he struggles to put up and maintain boundaries with anxin. anxin is such a dog of a boy, always excited, always looking for approval, always looking for more than he can get. he’s very much a give an inch, take a mile type and that’s something i’ve really come to appreciate abt him. the way anxin acts with hao is in such stark contrast with literally every other person we’ve seen him on screen with. so fascinating that the person he’s had a relationship with for the longest is seemingly the person he’s the most eager for his affection/approval. you wanna be special to ur hao ge so bad don’t you anxin. they make me sick they’re such a srs ship to me.

there’s like… actually so much to unpack in this clip. really big fan of hao kind of nervously hovering.. like it’s very clear he’s got a thing abt people being in his space (anxin, laying in his bed, specifically, which could mean anything i hear) but he’s tolerating it bc xinlong is around and the camera’s are on. anxin is soooooo giddy that he’s getting to misbehave a little and do something he would normally never be allowed to. anxin giggling about how hao is going to hit him and xinlong getting up and deciding that’s his queue. the noises anxin makes while xinlong covers the camera. his giggles and his whining oh my god wow. jiahao the whole time just kinda looming. the amount of thigh we see on anxin when xinlong finally uncovers the camera. wow.

haoxin are so fun because they have so much History. and anxin is such an overbearing personality that I know for a fact he gets on hao’s nerves. and yet hao is so tolerant of him and dare i even say fond of him sometimes despite his attempts to come off as otherwise (i know what you are, jiahao). oughhhhh they’re so sweet i know hao has such a soft spot for him. i really like anxin pressing boundaries and testing his limits because he knows that hao is going to give in to him at the end of the day.

your honor I love them.
