Type A: The Fluff Follower ☁️

You love your romance, you love your kitsch. Everything is good as long as your boys are happy and loved. You want everything to be pink and fluffy and dream of a world where everyone and their uncle is gay. In your world the sun is always shining, the birds sing their love songs and there is always a happy end around the next corner. Tears and drama are nothing for you. You prefer the warmth and comfort of complete and utter fluff. 

Type B: The Drama Llama 🔥

You are into some real fucked up shit, do you know that? You like it when there are tears and screaming, you enjoy the pain and the struggle. That doesn’t mean you are in any way wrong yourself, you just enjoy a lot of drama in your fantasy world. It doesn’t matter how bad things get, you will sit there with your popcorn and enjoy how everything is going down in flames. 

Type C: Just Here For The Boys 🍑

You are a very simple creature and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Your main focus is just the optics. You don’t care how stupid the storyline is, how bad the editing or how rustling the sound is. As long as you can see all these beautiful creatures in HD on your screen, you are happy and content. Why bother yourself with some hard thinking when you can just lean back and enjoy the view. 

Type D: The Grand Guru 🔍

You just know everything there is to know about BL. You can tell what actors played which character in what series of what year without even breaking into a sweat. You have written essays about the meaning of sock colours in this one particular series and are still collecting all kisses between actors of a certain agency. To make it short: You are just batshit crazy for BL and a brain filled to the brim with ludacris knowledge to prove it.
