I'm reading Naomi Novik's "Temeraire" books bc some new social media pals are super into them.
As with a lot of media, there's a bunch of fannish chatter about the simmering homoeroticism about to boil over between two characters... who sometimes stand around talking about their jobs.
It's fine to have various head canons, queer or not, about media but I wish people wouldn't advertise stuff as being super queer when it isn't queer at all.
Sorry, a bunch of nominally conventionally attractive 40 year olds playing 20 year olds sitting in the same room doesn't mean they're queer.

Your blorbo has big jug ears and that's fine. Love him, love his ears. Don't make him "prettier." It's weird! You're weird for doing that!!
FWIW, I'm enjoying the Temeraire books.
Wm. Lawrence: would you marry me?
Jane Rowland: lol, lmao even, no, why would I?
The man's parents already think her illegitimate child is his.
