I'm loving how the body language analysts are having a field day with these two. There are tons of YouTube videos where they go frame by frame of a scene and analyze their eye contact and how close they are standing to each other. I think it's kind of entertaining in a soap-opera-ish kind of way. But, honestly, I don't put any stock in it because people can convince themselves of anything. I've seen body language experts claim that two co-stars who despise each other are secretly in love. It's a bunch of pseudoscience being applied to gossip. The two of them do seem comfortable with each other, but that doesn't mean anything. They could have a decade or more of friendship and working together behind them, or they could just generally be comfortable with people of similar personalities and that's it. I just don't see the point of reading romantic intent into every glance they share.
Let's leave body language analysis to true crime documentaries.

It’s wild how much emotional investment we all put into these actors’ personal lives. I was in high school when all of this was going down and I felt such devastation at the cheating scandal. It’s weird because I had no idea who these people were but at the same time I felt so connected to them. Tumblr in particular made it easy for us to collectively obsess over their relationship, each new paparazzi photo of them becoming a new chapter in their story. Looking back on it, it was all so invasive and unfair to them. They were just a group of kids trying to figure out how to make a relationship work while the whole world was watching. The fact that they all managed to find each other and date within that cauldron of pressure is a testament to the huge need for connection and shared understanding that must have been present.

The ambiguous ending of the adaptation gave me just enough hope to want to read the novel. Unfortunately, the novel is brutal. It slams that door shut, locks it, and then melts the key into nothingness. Artistically, it’s the better ending, but so unilaterally devoid of hope for emotional investment in Chu Qiao’s journey for her personal victory rather than that of her love interest in the novel.

Trying to link what he does to the impact it has with his personal identity is like trying to find one specific tree in a forest. His heartfelt and unique portrayal of Ian incites discussion about mental health and sexuality, and that is the true impact of his work. Let’s try to stay in the forest and appreciate the beautiful, mess of a story he helped to tell.

The film concludes with a wonderful metaphor. The protagonist finally jettisons the ‘pretend’ industry guide he’d so meticulously clung to from the opening scenes. That book on manipulation is supplanted by his own notes, developed from his experiences. These new notebook entries reveal how he has discovered a better way and eschewed the acerbic wisdom he once felt required for success. The newly penned volume is presented to the ‘new rookie’ and slung upon his desk – the same spot where the manipulated industry guidebook first appeared. The wisdom is transferred to the next generation of solicitors in a far superior and more benevolent manner than previously. A wonderful symbol for this excellent series of films.

Looking at it from a strictly network TV perspective, the character of Erin Strauss had run her course. The ‘bureaucrat who doesn’t get it’ is a great character for about 20 episodes or so and then he or she can start to wear a bit thin as the only way to keep the character going is to have them behave stupidly in order to keep the plot going. In this case, Strauss’s death was part of the resolution of the Replicator case. By having the Replicator kill Strauss, the show was able to make the point that this killer was not simply a random serial killer targeting civilians. He was able to get to FBI personnel as well. It also served as a catalyst for the rest of the team, particularly Hotch, as he was the team leader’s protector. His inability to protect Strauss served to further solidify his role as a protector who is not able to keep everyone he cares about safe. It was a ruthless move, but it served to advance the plot and the characters in a very effective way.

The two leads are likely at the perfect age to be cast in a series that could last for a decade or more. They are old enough to have had lots of experience and be great actors, but young enough to commit to the show for such a long period of time. I think both would consider being cast as lead characters in a huge series a career highlight, and hopefully they are equipped to handle the huge amount of press and attention that comes with it.
You see people of a young age become famous overnight in their early 20s. People in their mid 30s have more of a sense of grounding. You can see that in how they handle being in the spotlight, with tons of professionalism and a somewhat private life. They have the bases of a strong amount of resilience from their real age when they first started.

The show lists Reid as 24 years old at the start of Season 1. Throughout the series his birthday is never actually mentioned. It would be an interesting parallel for a character-driven show with a brilliant somewhat isolated protagonist trying to navigate complex relationships. Instead of a crime solving team though, Alpha Reid would be a modern fantasy where the main character’s unique mind is both his greatest strength and greatest weakness.

There’s plenty of listing for ‘male pregnancy’, ‘omegaverse’, ‘mpreg’ on MyAnimeList and Anilist (with most being manga but there might be an anime or two listed too). Lists for those terms can also be found on manga databases like Baka-Updates Manga. A lot of content, often of varying quality and with differing tones, but the filters on the site make searching for niche tropes a lot easier. Be prepared for a large amount of listings and find out if a certain manga is ‘fluff’, ‘angst’ or ‘non-con’ by reading the user reviews and checking the tags.
