I have been soooo crazy about GFKleo since you posted about it I cannot stop thinking about their relationship. The subtly manipulative edge to the way GFK talks to Leo that Leo either fails to pick up on or chooses to ignore… the weird colleagues GFK has that he introduces Leo to as more of arm candy that look at Leo a little weirdly… I’m bonkers

i am sooooo glad to hear that anon!!! GFKLeo means so much to me and i find it wild that it's not talked about more in the fandom! like did everyone read the same stories as we did or....? like idk, i understand it's a touchy subject for many and most fans simply would not want to go there but the set-up we got in canon is crazy and to me it's a shame not to make use of it. i do understand that it's difficult to strike the delicate balance between whats canon and whats hc/daydreaming about how much more fucked up we could make it. there is also the fact that handling everything is hard if we take into account leo's pov, because he has such a peculiar, nuanced and precious view of things... he KNOWS he was used by GFK and doesn't care, and while we know the lewd jokes and innuendos made him uncomfortable we also know from his convo with aira that he STILL respects GFK as a person and a producer bc he associated with Leo and appreciated him... it makes everything so much more tragic than if leo was the innocent victim madara (for ex) wishes he were.

working on my fic on them is tough but i'm really enjoying so far and while it's a very niche premise i really hope you'll be able to enjoy my portrayal of them and their relationship! :>
