It started with skin issues and he called himself gross
And his older love interest still thought he was beautiful
And his older love interest fell despite the skin issues
And a few days/weeks later, he talked to his closest confidant about their future-he imagined sharing a house
And his love interest talked about their future
Adjacent to the flames of their destruction
Despite the fact that they both wanted said future
What Disney owned(In the end) canonically gay couple am I describing?
A. Buck and Tommy
B. Tarkin and his stormtrooper lover, TK-421 from a Star Wars short story that was tethered to tell a story that ended in their deaths in A New Hope(TK-421 made Tarkin laugh! He told his droid about it! It was sweet! And then Han Solo killed him and Luke Skywalker stole his armor)
C. Both
(If you guessed C, you were right! And I am pissed now that I realize they (likely unintentionally) made me sit through Of MSE-6 and Men just with relationship build up and ending in a horribly written breakup vs them having to kill TK-421 after he was talking about how nice it felt to make Tarkin laugh and I am so fucking pissed because I love both couples SO much to be able to whittle it down to the same because of TPTB/a 40 year old movie plotline.)
