found family / family of choice in BL

The "Found Family" or “Family of Choice” trope refers to a device in literature and media where a group of characters find themselves united in a family bond based on shared experiences, mutual understanding, and interpersonal connection (from nypl.org)

This is one of my favorite tropes ever to read. As usual, I'll try my best to include reviews and content warning.

The original novel is honest to god one of the greatest coming of age works i've ever read. It's complex and heart-wrenching, but also funny, tender, and so hopeful. I can't describe how much love i have for these characters, and seeing them in manhua form is totally an amazing experience. Read the novel: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/saye/
