hey, do you know of any BL-s similar to A boss and a Babe? I don't mean plot wise or setting but a bl with a similar uke (Cher). I feel like I haven't seen much or at all BL-s with an uke that's such a crackhead, so vital, positive, non dramatic, up for anything, vocal about feelings and love, the one who also kinda pursues when it's needed, that pushes boundaries etc etc
Huh, you mean like a GGG uke? (good giving game)
There are LOTS of crackheads... seek ye Japan. But that goes real fast into cringe, like Secret Crush On You.
The GGG part is where we fall down. This is a very new take on the archetype. Also non-dramatic, I mean it's a BL drama so dramatic is kinda the point.
I'll take a stab!
crackhead
vital & positive (sunshine)
pursues when it's needed (switchy)
non dramatic (good)
vocal about feelings and love (giving)
up for anything, pushes boundaries (game)
Fits all 6 criteria (but in their own countries' style):
All the Liquors (Korea)
Mr Heart (Korea)
Ocean Likes Me (Korea)
Be Loved In House I Do (Taiwan)
Love Sick (Thailand - bet you didn't see that one coming)
And now some that do their best satisfying 4 ore more of the above requirements.
Thailand
Everyone is just really dramatic in Thai BL.

Seme/uke is always weak, queerness is more authentic so roles less prescribed and campy
DNA Says Love You (sides 1,2,3,6)
Kiseki Dear to Me (sides 1,2,3,6)
Stay By My Side (1,2,35,6)
Korea
Seme/uke is pretty weak, little to no crackhead, and everything will be more reserved and muted.

The Eighth Sense (2,3,4,5,6)
Behind Cut (2,4,6)

Silhouette of Your Voice (1,2,4,6)

Like Love from China might work.
Most stuff from the Philippines first some if not all.

Might also be worth reading

For hour top BL anything ask, might be hard but top braid pulling affection teasing moments?
This one would be easier: top pouts
Do you mean like soft boyfriend teasing moments?
5. Tommy trying to get Ba Da to go to bed instead of working. Tommy offered himself up to Ba Da who basically ignored him and then went stomping off to bed only to be tackled by Ba Da 2 seconds later. It was cute and teasing and soft. (Ocean Likes Me)
4. Win sneaking a kiss in the locker room during one of the drink ads in the series. He managed to slip in a peck before leaving Team speechless. (Between Us)
3. Nuea refusing to help Toh Top him. He was like, "If this is something you really wanna do then you better have the confidence to do it. Don't worry, I'll wait," and he just lay there like a log and watched his mans struggle. (Secret Crush on You)
2. Kinn and Porsche blowing their disgusting morning breath in each other's faces the morning after the green bathroom scene. Cute and playful and teasing and gross. (KinnPorsche the Series)
1.. Payu making Rain think they were going back to platonic relationship only to announce that he would be the one pursuing Rain instead of the other way around. He made my boy cry and worry for what? To be cheeky. (Love in the Air)
Ask me my Top 5 BL Anything for 2022
