I've read a shit ton of bl, not as much as others but still more then average. I've come to realize that with bls, the ultimate purpose of the plot is to serve as a device to establish the relationship and dynamic between the ml and mc. In that sense, story itself in bl is a plot device. Some do have a comprehensive storyline, but they are usually still there to establish and explain the characters.
thats the purpose of plot isnt it? to establish a dynamic bw the characters? how else is a story supposed to unfold? if u just wish to see 2 characters have sex, read hentai or something 1 reply
